    As a mother of a 25 year old son, I don't want to see him naked at this point in time and that would be super awkward in front of his friends 😳. I believe in healthy boundaries. I'm sure if there were a medical question or something my son would feel very comfortable coming to me to look into it and check it out, but as for just casual nakedness, I don't think it would fly at our house. No judgment though for people who live an alternative lifestyle or are just more relaxed about their nudity.

    Had a roommate that left her dirty dishes, pots and pans in the sink/counter. I lost it one day and brought all the foul, mouldy, sloshing dishes and put them on her bed with a note that she'd lost kitchen privileges until she learned how to be courteous to the rest of us.

    If brain size is so important have her explain why a bull with a much bigger brain is not in her college instead of the slaughterhouse. She is an idiot to regurgitate that argument. It is one the patriarchy used for years to defend their stance that women are just dumber than men because of our smaller brains.

    The episode of FRIENDS where Joey and Chandler were fighting over a comfy chair. Matt LeBlanc really hurt himself doing the scene where they both dived into it, which is why they began the next episode as if Joey was jumping on the bed and fell off and got hurt....to explain the sling he was wearing.

    Sometimes it just hits the spot if you're restless. Get out of bed so you're not overthinking not being able to sleep, and sometimes it's just what the dr ordered for back or hip fatigue.

    I never liked him until I heard him play blues. Check out Eric Clapton's Crossroads DVDs. That comment is pretty ignorant. Most players play multiple guitars. Check out Joe Bonamassa sometime. He changes guitars just about every song in a set.
