Thank you so much for this reply! Obviously this makes me think differently of the process. Do you think with a different instructor it may have been a worthwhile endeavor, though?

I think this is overstepping. However, I'm pretty sure a couple states (Connecticut?) require educational sessions for married-couples-with-children who are divorcing. My understanding is that the classes are meant to benefit the children by advising the parents the best way to conduct themselves during the divorce…

I think their underwear is pretty great and comfortable (and offers full-butt coverage without looking dowdy, which I like). Their bras leave a lot to be desired.

I have nothing substantial to add to what Doyin posted, but I do want to say that I think this was an extremely well-written piece and I think his daughters are very lucky to have him as a father.

Clueless, indeed.

I feel like I can't hate on this pairing considering my favorite movie couple of all time is composed of a 16 year old and a 19(?) year old who used to be step-siblings.

I don't think that polygamy and marriage-between-two-people-no-matter-their-genders are totally comparable, but I do happen to think that both should be legal. No legislation should stop people from marrying who they want to marry, even if I happen to think polygamy is a little squicky.

I'm sorry for knowing this, but it's Ashley Rickards from "Awkward".

I LOVED that book but had been sold a misprint so my copy was missing the last 4 pages. I thought for the longest time that it just ended like that, but on a whim grabbed a friend's copy and saw the pages I had missed. It was the weirdest thing!

I've been really into YA fiction lately: I Loved If I Stay (and the sequel, Where She Went) and The Fault in Our Stars and The Spectacular Now.

No idea how to PM, but if part of your screen name is part of your last name then I may know who you are... Weird!

Lindy, this is all fabulous, but how could you possibly skip over the one scene in America where January Jones, the girl from Happy Endings and 24, and that other one make sexual innuendo jokes forever and love Colin's accent and then invite him back to their 2 story home which they live in with no furniture other…

I went to high school with her! She was (and I'm sure still is) a great person.

You technically get more money if you choose the annuities, but then the amount does not grow with inflation. If you choose the lump sum, you give your winnings the ability to grow with the market over time.

I'm using more the proverbial we - as in 'Murca - not as in the Jezzie 'we'.

(Obviously Sally getting all murdery changed a few things, but seriously - we're cool with Huck the semi-reformed killer-for-hire, the President who murdered the Supreme Court Justice, and Olivia the fixer who literally fixed a national election, but not with these two smart, driven women?)

Team Mellie and Sally FOR.E.VER.

I just about choked when she said that! I always judge people when they say things like "[such and such famous person] and I should be best friends"... But now I totally get it re: Jessica Williams.

I personally loved Jessica Williams calling out the "unique" spelling of Megyn Kelly's first name. Williams is an absolute treasure.

Just because her family is comprised of short people who live in a fantasy world doesn't mean she's a hobbit! (Does this logic mean Khloe - who is rather tall - is definitely NOT a hobbit?)
