On Ask a Clean Person: Laundry School — Lint and Static and Ironing, Oh My!

@Lila Fowler Cheap-ass t-shirt or tank from Old Navy or Target, topped with an expensive cardigan from Talbots or Lands End, ankle-length pants (because I am short), wacky flats, long necklace. This is seriously my work wardrobe at least four days a week.

On Who Wouldn't Want to Touch Her Feet?

@iceberg That's the interpretation I took from it. I read her comment as being impressed by her nail tech's professionalism.

On Who Wouldn't Want to Touch Her Feet?

@liznieve When I got to that line, I shouted, "OH FUUUUUUUUUCK YOUUUUUUUU, OBERLIN" at my computer.

On This is a Safe Space to Talk About Your Dissertation

My thesis for my minor (English Lit; Communications students at Pitt didn't have to do theses...that's why I was a Communications major) was titled "The Cribs of Macbeth: A Rope Made of Sand." It was 30 pages about the Cliffs Notes, Shakespeare for Dummies, and SparkNotes versions of Macbeth. I stole the subtitle from an episode of Clone High.

I was a not good student.

On Friday Bargain Bin: What to Do With Your Allowance This Week

@camanda Your friendly neighborhood plus-size shopper is here to help! Tank dresses are cute and easy to wear, particularly if you're bigger on the bottom, but I cannot stress enough the importance of wearing a good, supportive, definition-giving bra. Sometimes a tank-style dress is cut without darts in the bust, so you need a great bra to give you a nice shape (and not one giant boob shelf) up top.

On On Second Chances

I think this letter isn't real. I think it's viral marketing for Google Chrome.

On On Second Chances

@LeafySeaDragon I would totally have gone out with that dude twice. All I want in life is a man who will eat and watch TV with me.
