As of now, we can't be sure whether Justin will be charged with a misdemeanor or a felony (the case's prosecutor did once say, "If this isn't a felony, nothing is," but, like, there are lots of things that are more obviously felonious than this). Read more

I'm such a sucker for pictures of parents all tuckered out with their babies. Awwwwww. Read more

I'm guilty of this as well, though I've found I've had to defriend a lot of them anyways. For like racist and sexist reasons. Read more

I'm, in surreal fashion, peaking at 31, to the extent that the hard-partying young-professional crowd can ever be considered cool. Read more

Wow makes being popular sound like a bummer.... ( ¯\_(ツ)_/¯) Read more

Good point. I was trying so hard to think of a non-Mean Girls example but my brain was not working (for some reason, the only thing I could think of was Rocket Power??? I don't know why! I think they'd all be successful adults). Read more

I once brought a Yu-Gi-Oh binder t0 my 4th grade Gifted and Talented class and was mocked severely. That's when I knew acceptance would be a hard-fought battle. Know why?

"So, sweet, sapling nerds of the world, remember: it's what's on the inside that counts in the long run. And, cool teens, never forget that lighting farts on fire for thrones of your delighted peers is hilarious."

Do you see a lot of breastfeeding photos on your feed? The only place I see them are in breastfeeding support groups I'm a member of. Read more

Then don't look, quickly scroll past? You can also hide posts you don't want to see. Read more

I'd rather see those than the pictures of "my child's first shit in the grown up toliet*!" Read more

At first I was horrified by your comment. Then I thought about it, and decided that I agree with it. But I also don't want to see about 90% of the photos that are posted on Facebook. Read more

Your tastes are your business, my facebook page is mine. You can defriend people or take them off your feed if you want. Read more

Burn me at the stake if you will, but I still don't want to see your breastfeeding photos on Facebook. Read more

I hear you. The case with the Egyptology department at Yale was complicated: they started sleeping together when she was an undergraduate, and she entered the grad program, finished in record time, and then became assistant professor. There were always rumors he was "helping" her. He has overseen all of her reviews Read more
