I'm from North America, not at all an Anglophile, and vaguely interested in celebrity gossip. I've known who she was for nearly a decade. Her fame was at the point that it's your responsibility to Google it if you don't know who she is, instead of post a comment about how you were too lazy to Google it yourself.

I totally know what you mean. For years, I tried to convince myself to like running. I ran 10K's and half-marathons and hated every fucking second of it. But I kept trying because I thought if I kept at it long enough, I would discover this mythical "runner's high" and suddenly start to enjoy it. Never happened.…

its a dog in a bear costume, its a mythical creature from ireland called a caioegh that apparently guards you in the afterlife

I am surrounded by runners at work all the time. They call 3 hours after we get 18 inches of snow to see if the trails are cleared. They are out in the 104 degree heat. They simply HAVE TO run.

I'm tracking a friend that is averaging 7:15/mile right now in Boston and I'm eating cookie dough while doing it.

I'm not even willing to run if someone is chasing me. They're probably faster than me, so no way I'll actually get away, and at least then I won't spend my final moments wheezy and sweaty.

So they say, but remember the story about the Indian (I think, or perhaps Pakistani?) couple who lured their daughter home by saying they forgave her, and then strangled/smothered her to death?

I'm going to stand firm on my stance on only running if someone is chasing me.

I feel for these people, but I HATE when romeo and Juliet are used as an example of a romantic story. It seems especially wrong considering that these are adults.

Afghan custom is that the bride's family must be paid a dowry in order for the woman to be eligible for marriage. While Hazaras are looked down upon as an ethnicity, the Shi'a aspect is not as objectionable as much as the fact that Hazaras are looked at as servants, or lesser. Marriages are known to cross ethnic…

This is not religion, this is fucking tribalism pure and simple. It's the moronic belief that we are so great that we are willing to kill lest something else taint our delusions of perfection.

If you read the article the father has vowed to kill his daughter to protect their family honor. I know I shouldn't be surprised by this, but every time I read about a parent willing to kill/hurt/disown a child for reasons related to going against social norms, it boggles my mind. I just, who are these people? How do…

It's hard to hear her follow up "this disease is scary" with "because people say I've done drugs I never touched." This disease is scary because even if there are tons of drugs she's never touched, alcohol addiction can kill her. I wish her all the best, but she just STILL sounds like she's in denial, going for a…

RN here. It adds up just fine. Antibiotic allergies can be quite serious, so it makes sense for them to keep her. (Especially since she's a high profile patient.) They're also likely still dealing with her original infection. Respiratory treatments are given to a lot of patients. She's probably getting nebulizer…

Lol, stop with that bullshit. We're talking about Lindsay Lohan here. She's not above using ANYTHING for attention, sympathy, pity, money, etc. If you truly believe her then you have learned nothing from her decade of being a mess and blaming her team, black people, better actresses, the police, the judge, her…

I wonder if he realized he could very easily die. I mean, yes, it's obvious, but sometimes... ... how to put this delicately... people... ... ... really overlook the obvious...

Bravo, future James Bond. Your training is almost complete. Childhood/Teenage issues, check. Hitching onto an airplane Batman style, check.

Everyone has different levels of clean and messy. I've seen clean people think their house is messy if not everything is put away that day. I've also seen people that just don't clean ever. My family always considers it courteous to clean if someone is coming over out of respect to that person, not out of fear of…

Gee, if only you could go back in time and warm this woman! Its be ever so much more helpful than this ridiculous victim blaming bullshit.
