You might be surprised. I was. (I mostly only see my own boobies and sexualized boobies.)
A must-see for all women, I think (and hell, men too).

Hijab! :D
One thing that baffles me about people wanting to ban head-scarves is… Ok, 1.) they’re just being bigoted assholes, but also HIJABS LOOK GOOD. If some fashionable aliens were to land here on Earth, knowing nothing about anything, I think they would happen upon some head-scarves and think, “Ooh, pretty!” Why would you want to ban that?! Like, not going...

angelcreations answered your question:Anyone know the magic secret to connecting Tumblr to Buzz?
well, I just connected it to my facebook and twitter which buzz connects too so that’s how I did it :S
Believe it or not, I don’t have (well, don’t use) Facebook. It’s actually blocked in my DNS proxy at home, so I can’t physically connect to it.

That being said, treating epilepsy via a ketogenic diet has been around since at least the 20s (it was the original treatment, prior to the invention of modern anticonvulsant drugs).

So we're interested in this house, right?
Except the agent is a total douchebro; refused to give me a copy of the contract, was one of those patronizing close-talkers (you know the ones), only paid attention when I came back with my husband a week later. That sort of thing. Sadly, the house he’s selling is kinda awesome.
So we get the following conversation:
Me: Except I just don’t wanna buy a house from that guy. I want to...

I think completely awesome.
He was a paedophile, man!
I mean, seriously. I like the guy too, he’s heaps lulz, but there’s a bit of a level of cognitive dissonance there that goes beyond sexual orientation, yanno?

Hi, welcome to the reasons I loathe this series and am totally baffled why so many people — who would otherwise fall all over themselves to advocate for liberal/SJ causes — idolize it.

It’s called the “how many houses have copies of Harry Potter on their bookshelves”.
I think I see about a dozen houses a week. So far my hit rate is about 90%.
The next most grossing book is Twilight, though those tend to be in bedrooms where HP tends to live in the living room.

Someone just told me I was useless in WSG.
