Hi everyone,

It seems I have a question. Does the open thread always start at 10.00 pm? I’m asking because it seems there’s a lot of activity in the hours after it opens, but that’s in the wee hours of the […]

Savage Garden…next to Hanson and Backstreet Boys you were my all time favorites.

Ch-cherry cola also brings up the memory of twelve year old me thinking the lyrics went “chicken cola” and telling everyone how […]

Oh, Hanson. My twelve year old self still bleeds for you. My 27 year old self admits to still thinking they were pretty darn good.

Oh, comfort reading…my most favorite activity ever. I am a teacher who also has a degree in literary science and you wouldn’t believe the amount of critique I get from my peers regarding my choice of reading […]

No worries. I expect a lot of this got lost in translation. Swedish media has been talking about this nonstop for a week now :)

As for that man surviving in his car for that long – it appears to be true, although what’s not mentioned here is that he had plenty of food in his car. The food eventually ran out and the man was found in the […]

Yes, being a grown-up can get pretty lonely. Luckily, I live with my awesome boyfriend and I have friends left from university, but since I moved two years ago, I don’t see them often. I’ve moved to a small town […]

I was a picky eater as a child (still am) and ruined our kitchen table by ramming my fork into it during every meal out of anger and frustration. Or so they tell me. These days, I mainly break wine glasses and the […]

Or salt. You do not put salt in open wounds. Or in your vagina. No no. But I know what you mean, there actually is stuff up there,  it’s not a closed crevice that needs to be irrigated!

Bleh. I’m still cringing […]

Just commenting to say that that was hilarious!

I live for those moments. Nothing better than being able to tell a fifteen year old boy who thinks he’s hilarious for daring to ask what douchebag means that it has to do with vaginal hygiene. I usually elaborate […]

Swedish as well. Well, technically it’s “dusch”, but you get the point. I teach ESL and I’ve actually been asked why douchebag is an insult, seeing as how showering isn’t actually something that people tend to be […]

Great article. While I wouldn’t touch Lysol with a stick, there’s one thing in particular that I got from reading those ads – women used salt and soda to douche with? Lysol is bad enough, but salt and soda? Dear god…

If it was, I’d be really disappointed :)

Oh yeah, Swedish cider. We’re not exactly known for our cider making. I’m glad you like it, but I’ll happily have some English cider instead.

It looks fantastic! I’m super jealous!

And she was so, so young. I never got that when I watched the series the first time around, because I was young as well. But now it almost breaks my heart. 17 years old? That’s a kid….

/Yes, I have invested a […]
