I'm currently drooling and making that Homer Simpson drool-y "gggggggg" noise.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Dear Coworkers,
And I thought the colonoscopy discussion was bad. Please stop talking about afterbirth.
OMGWTF,

After a long conversation about dating, someone at work just sent me this Atlantic article on "settling": Marry him!
“They, like me, would rather feel alone in a marriage than actually be alone, because they, like me, realize that marriage ultimately isn’t about cosmic connection—it’s about how having a teammate, even if he’s not the love of your life, is better than not having one at all.”
I’m sure the author would think I’m deluding myself, but I really feel sorry for people who feel this way.

Argh. Had a long depressing conversation about this article on Friday night. My friend kept threatening to forward it to me and I was like NO IT WILL MAKE MY HEAD EXPLODE!

I'm surprised my head hasn't exploded, there was so much to hate in that article! Starting with the premise that the reason I'm not married is because I'm completely deluded about the "reality" of marriage.

I just think that author is very sad. She essentially says it's better to marry someone who PHYSICALLY REPULSES YOU, just so that you have a husband, rather than be single.
I mean, really. That's so fucking SAD. How empty is her life, that she believes it's better to be with someone who disgusts you than be single?
And frankly, the whole tone of the article comes off as a poorly veiled justification for wanting a sugar daddy to support her and her child. Unfortunately (for her), any man who's read the article and has one shred of intelligence and self-preservation won't touch her with a 50-foot stock portfolio.
