people are jerks to children of hoarders: “Why don’t you clean up your parent’s place” -they won’t let me. “How do you let them live like that?” - I can’t stop them, and if I try they will physically and verbally attack me to the point that I would have to call the police and as much as I don’t want them living in…

I think that confused the hell out of many.

Very strange comment to you, Sheesh. Of course you won’t become a hoarder.

children of hoarders often are very minimalist to compensate for the effects of hoarding they had to endure. Most children of hoarders do not themselves become hoarders.

blaming others for the mess is a classic hoarder move. Don’t buy it.

he he. My parents are collecting crap FOR me.

I am so sorry that you have to go through this, you aren’t alone! I hope reading all these comments makes you feel a little better about the frustration and pain that occurs when our parents hoard.

Same same to the same. My parents are almost the exact ages as yours as well.

I have seen many a black person, and I don’t have dreads. So I am not copying anyone. My hair just sits on my head as nature intended.

I don’t think its AS reasoning. I’m on the spectrum, love animals, rescue animals, won’t even use cosmetics that test on animals and I would swap my precious doggie in a heatbeat for someone I didn’t know who was a human.

We are having floods at the moment in Australia and our State Emergency Service was unable to rescue two dogs trapped in flood waters because it would have been a real risk for the rescuers to swim out to save them without having a boat handy or any swift water rescue equipment. So they monitored the dogs and against…

Iggy Azalea moved to the US as a teenager and the first I ever heard of her was on Jezebel. I have never heard her on the radio or knew any of her songs until I googled them (after hearing about her on Jezebel). She is doing a the voice or something but that’s probably the first time she has been on Australian TV -…

I just want to make a point or two about Bourke. I see a LOT of child police interviews with my work as a criminal defence lawyer:

I am pulling for them too, but as someone who also dated someone with chronic, long term depression, I am very much pulling for Chyna because that is so, so exhausting.

Only if black people with dreadlocks is your cultural reference. I live in Australia and I have never seen a black person with dreadlocks in Australia or New Zealand. I know the context of dreadlocks from reading Jezebel. I was surprised several years ago to discover that dreadlocks did not come from Thailand, as that…

Elliot Reid was the best part of that show. Janitor schmanitor.

Kendall is closeted for reasons.

Dreadlocks are a genuine part of Thai culture though are they not? I have no source for this beyond casual conversations with some colleagues from Thailand. I had thought of dreadlocks as an example of things occurring in different parts of the world organically - like tattooing and scarification.

Interesting context to the fashion show.

Why not Katy? She seems like she has a bit of experience at least.
