I try really, really hard not to judge people for any reason and while I sometimes fail in rather spectacular fashions, I'm not proud of myself when it happens. But this morning, I just could not help myself. This woman took her still-crawling, walking-with-the-aid-of-furniture child out of his stro...

As I was tidying up this morning, I noticed one of my Ranger Rick magazines was disassembled by a young, enthusiastic reader and lying on the ground was this page; I just knew I had to put him up on my cork-board type thing at my desk downstairs. God, I can't get over how adorable he is.

Nah, no lecturing vibe from you (or Kelly). I think it's been a nice case of being informative and understanding without resorting to lecturing or condescension. If only more people approached food that way, ya know. It's just a knee-jerk reaction type fear, whenever I hear about food things, that I...

Although I do think (as someone who plugs her ears and shouts out "LA LA LA I CAN'T HEAR YOU!" at more or less every opportunity) that there comes a point when we MUST face that which we do not want hear. At this point, I just think that point is personal, and different for everyone. Yeah...

Thanks, Nomi. <3 I feel like I need to quote Daria just now ("Daria - Don't worry. I don't have low self-esteem. It's a mistake. Jake - I'll say! Daria - I have low esteem for everyone else."), because I'm reminded of that and not because it directly applies to any of what you said. Jason,...

A major "hell yes!" to Bologna Boy, Ali, and Nomi.

I don't know if I'm veering off course too much with this but in response to brain and Steph, I have a very hard time believing people on emotional matters; the same can sometimes be said of more factual matters but those are disputed easily enough and when I'm wrong about those, I tend to be decent...

Petrie

Thanks for explaining. :) It's really not preachy about food I can handle conversation, so long as this is the case. I can't tell you how many conversations I've had with a certain member of Pweb I won't name, where they would not shut up with the "You really need to try my diet." Um, no I...

I wish every American would watch it. This may be a dumb question but why? For the food re-education, to see how bad things are for certain communities that may be representative of a nation-wide trend? I don't eat particularly well but I also don't think I eat entirely awfully, either, and food is...

I don't know if it's too soon but I would like to request images of Momma Brontosaurus, too. I'm pretty sure you are doing it wrong if you're not keeping visual records of your hump (your lovely baby bump).

If I wake up dead tomorrow

For tips on how to smoothly make the transition, please contact Dr. Mobius.

In the rare* event of a death lasting more than 4 hours, seek immediate medical help to avoid long-term injury.

*Is that really so rare?

It's only cosmetic, as far as I can tell, but there are more "category" rows now and instead of seeing 5 or so movies at a time in each row and having to arrow over to see the next set of 5, you hover your cursor to the side and they fly by. Sometimes they won't stop scrolling for me, even...

Because I know everyone is just dying to know what I've been keeping busy with in my artistic endeavors (read: painstaking, bordering on masochistic time-passer by-ers), I'm still working on this . (I knew it was from early this year but holy whoa-bagger, January?) I started and was quite enthusiast...

Dear Netflix Streaming,

I can't tell yet whether or not I like the new you but consider yourself a possible contender for "Irrational Irritations."

The best thing to come out of the East coast since the Constitution.

I'm pretty sure I disagree with Darwin's death being pointless and while it might be ironic, I also saw it as kind of fitting in the context of Civil Rights. I do agree with Emma Frost being kind of lame, though. Overall, there were parts that really moved me (the Nazi camp, training, at the beach a...

I guess I'll address this: the new fresh site that we've kind of been almost working on in here, with my thoughts on the matter, given it's less than a month from the original proposed move date. I'm unaware of Jan's, Wil's, or Will's thoughts on the matter but in the three months since I last even ...

Confession: I can't relate, not really, to engagement, wedding, being married/marriage, baby/kid conversations and although I'm very happy for my friends for experiencing these things and for being included in the conversation, it makes me feel...not left out, per se, not even unwelcome or uncomfort...

Miracle of all miracles, I finally got the knot out of my right shoelace after at least a month of it being too impossibly tight to untangle and me having to work around it. I am very good at untying knots, like seriously, I consider it a talent. The next time I'm being knotty, I'll call you. I lov...

Petrie

I was reading this book and really enjoying it, commenting to myself on how much I could relate, how it was showing my life and what will be my life most likely, how realistic it was and how much more I loved it for that...and then it essentially turned into a Nicholas Sparks book at the end. I have...

Petrie

It being nearly 9PM, it's entirely too late for me to have any grasp on the majority of the details of my dream last night and I was much too excited this morning to get to work (no, really), so I didn't retain the details that well even then. But, I do remember that Mich, zero, and Edward Norton we...

Petrie

Miracle of all miracles, I finally got the knot out of my right shoelace after at least a month of it being too impossibly tight to untangle and me having to work around it. That he's letting me be a part of that with him. I don't care about why; it's something I enjoy simply because it's enjoyable ...

Lack of security at work. I got fed up tonight with a habitually drunk and verbally offensive patron and called the police on him. I hate the look I was given by the responding officer, like, "That was all he did?" Well, f*** it all, you're right. He should be able to park at the Circ desk...

I have made my bed every single morning this week.

The only tv show I made it a point of watching on the tv, and not online, was canceled this year, after 5 seasons. It was time, I think, even though it still had decent ratings; the show was just getting too...convoluted and soap operatic for my tastes. With that said, it will be weird not having it...

*hugs for HBC* If it's not prying to ask, why not see a doctor about getting back on the or a similar medication? You really shouldn't have to think of excuses. You should feel better.

Petrie

*might morphin power bumpers* ... *snort* Anyway. I know this is a very old thread but for the past few weeks, I've been making a mental note in the 5 seconds between lying down and falling into a deep, deep slumber that I can no longer fall asleep on my stomach. I have to be on my back, but just to...

The slowness of pweb today.

Oh dear, why am I responding to this particular post?

This is how it is pretty much all the time. At least, from where I'm sitting. Busy days are the exception and the definition of "busy" for Pweb is...not very busy.

Petrie

Anyone miss me (hell, anyone remember me)? probably not Yes! To both. :) Welcome back! Let's see. Military, CA or TX? I want to say CA. I remember you, if for no other reason you make Mich go crazy with...whatever he went crazy with above. :mrgreen: (I'm also Gravity Defier but I mess around on thi...

Petrie

This reminded me of Jan's post in here; it made me very sad at the levels of unnecessarily tragic this reached.

Petrie

So, law-yer, have you read The Road ? If not, what the hell is wrong with you, and if so and assuming you liked it, remind me to get you the title of a book being published later this year that is supposed to be a read-alike but specifically targeted at teens. It deals with a flooded out Louisiana, ...

Petrie

Nomi, have you read The Scorch Trials, part two to Maze Runner, yet? I haven't started it but I did pick it up today and plan on getting to that...ASAPish.

Petrie

Not being offered a position straight up: -300.

Right around the corner, bologna boy.

Petrie

Yay, Erica and Potato!

Vegas, eh? Does that mean I can go? That's a whole 5 hours from here, which makes it do-able.
