what should i say to my aunt about not going to my cousin's bridal shower? at first i Rsvp'd that i'd go but when i asked if my daughter could go she said that kids weren't allowed...except for the two and three year olds on the fiance's side and her best friends' little daughters so if i couldn't find a sitter then sure bring my 11 year old, but otherwise "no kids" i don't want to go anymore. i feel like if my daughter isn't welcome then i don't want to be there either...should i just say that "something came up and i can't make it" but send a gift? am i being weird? -the same thing happened for her baby shower, they told me "no kids" but then when i went there, there were like 6 two year olds. my daughter is older and well behaved so idgi. the parties are always in their backyard its not like they're paying for a plate somewhere. |

Mental Mastication Redux
Those of you who answered this post in the affirmative, how many of you are depressed? Chronically depressed? On medication for depression? I'll step up and say I'm on medication for severe depression, have been for years. Right now I'm on Effexor, 75 mg twice a day. I still do the same thing, but it's a lot less dramatic than before I was medicated. I will say that I didn't do it while sharing the bed with someone else, mostly out of shame because I never knew anyone else did it... |

Today at Costco I saw a man wearing a red conical hat, about a foot tall and as wide as his head, with a strap wrapped around the base of it several times, and about two feet of the strap hanging down the back of his neck. The rest of his clothing was a different shade of red, but I didn't think to look at it as I was just passing by. Kind of a track suit maybe? He also had an unkempt beard, so I assume it's some kind of religious headwear. GIS has failed me. What was this hat, and if it's religious, what religions use it? [edit] Visual aid! |

Is anyone else here agonizingly punctual? How should I deal? I have a total stick up my ass about plans being CONCRETE and about people being EXACTLY ON TIME, and I'm definitely one of those "if you're not early, you're late" people. If plans aren't solidified days in advance I'm anxious forever, and if someone isn't on time- even if it's not important that they are- I get pissed. Like, my bf and I are supposed to go out of town tomorrow but he still hasn't worked it out with me exactly WHEN we're going and it's driving me insane (even though as long as we're there by 4:30 tomorrow, we're good, and it's only like an hour drive).It's starting to introduce a lot of unnecessary stress in my life because a lot of people close to me can't seem to be on time to save their lives, and also, hey, most people aren't as uptight about that stuff. HOW ARE THE PUNCTUAL AND TACTICAL SUPPOSED TO COPE IN A WORLD THAT IS ALWAYS LATE AND JUST DOESN'T GIVE A FUCK? Serious/non serious. Also, what's your favorite flavor of jam/jelly/preserves for a PB&J? |

Cheese!
What's your favourite cheese? Mine is blue cheese, I think. I do have a lot of favourites though, but blue cheese is at the top. Gorgonzola is my favourite blue cheese. I prefer to just eat it as it is. |

Lazy Side Dishes
Hey TQC, I volunteered to bring a side dish to a family gathering tomorrow. Unfortunately, I have a very limited budget, and I can't really cook that well. What is the easiest possible side dish I can make? Bonus points is there's little to no actual cooking of ingredients involved. Side dishes that are already being brought include: Cheese Dip, potato salad, macaroni and cheese, cake, fruit salad, etc. EDIT: Wow, you guys! These are awesome ideas! |

sims medieval rgb code question
my girlfriend just bought the sims medieval and she just used the cheat to unlock all the outfits. At the moment she's creating a new character and there's a cute skirt outfit but the only way to show some leg is to wear a different outfit which is atrocious. my question is there a way to make the tights resemble the default skin tone using rgb code? Its the default spy character with the default skin right under the top left choice(idk if that makes sense, i dont know how else to describe it). dk/dc-what are your thoughts on the next generation of gaming consoles; are you more excited about ps4, xbox one, the next wii(idk what it's called)or are you pc/mac/linux gamer? |

weight loss woes
Can someone tell me what I might be doing wrong? I've been trying to lose weight. I have lost about 15 pounds so far, but the scale as of late has NOT been moving and I am so frustrated. I have a trainer 2x a week and we do some heavy weight lifting and some cross fit. I do light cardio by myself maybe 1-2x a week. Typically I eat about 1300 calories a day: lunch: chicken with quinoa 3 oz lean steak grilled asparagus snack: protein bar dinner: protein shake and another bar Can someone clue me in on a way to lose weight? I keep hearing I'm eating too much or I'm not eating enough. |

Do you expect your Dr to return your phone calls the same day? I called my Dr this morning right as the office opened, was promised a return call, and their business hours for today are now over and it is a holiday weekend so I can't call back until Tuesday. They gave me a prescription for something I can't take because I am pregnant and I wanted them to call in something else for me. :( |
