Words That Sick Us (You Included) Out

The Huffington Post Book section did a really good job with this list.

Apparently someone published the "100 Most Beautiful Words In The English Language" and Huffpuff was like "Yeah we gotta make a list like that too...only with the grossest words."

Click here to see the pictures that accompany the words.

But here is the list:

1. Maggots
2. Sexy 
3. Pants
4. Adipocere (no idea what this is)
5. Fetus
6. Viscous (sick)
7. Roaches
8. Hockey (??)
9. Moist (of course)
10. HillBilly
11. Wolverine
12. Slurp (good one)
13. Hubby
14. Panties
15. Tender

Are there any that you think are missing?

We Don't Want An Online Relationship

A friend of ours told us she was looking into online dating. Our initial reaction was "NOOOOO!!!!" And still even today writing about it we feel the same way. Are there really real people on the internet? We are a real person, and are currently using the internet right now.

So why do we imagine that everyone else using the internet is sketchy and only wearing their underwear at their computers?

Why does online dating get such a bad rep? And yet, we're not sure what the statistics are but like... 563 billion people have tried it and are now cuddling in front of the T.V. watching the Pelican Brief because of it.

Would you watch the Pelican Brief with your online date?

Mmm... something to think about...

So, is it more productive to 1. Be single and have a blog (meaning you devote at least 45 minutes to the internet every day) or 2. Be single and use online dating site to try to not be single or 3. Spend 23 hours on facebook everyday even if you have a boyfriend/girlfriend?


If you had to choose, only one of those options, which would you say is the best use of time?

Showing Concern Through Facebook: Wrong Way To Do It

We've seen this type of thing on Facebook too much. A Facebook profile announcing that a break-up has occurred and then people's friends taking that as an opportunity to be brutal. The correct response for the person who ended his relationship would have been to definitely NOT respond to this guy. For two reasons:

1. 1. His concerned friend shouldn't have said anything on Facebook. He should have texted/called/emailed or whatever.
2. 2. He spelled real with a z. 

If you feel like you need to respond, immediately divert the conversation away from the topic. Say something like, "Hey, I misplaced that *insert anything* you let me borrow, I can return it asap" This accomplishes two things:

1. It throws your brutal friend of the scent, he/she will forget all about what is happening and be like "oh yeah, I need that back" 
2. Your ex reads that and is like "wow, he's over it"

But a passive aggressive response (see above) just turns your FB wall into a reality show and you immediately become Heidi Montag and your day can't get much worse than that.

Are Girls Too Picky?

Last night our roommate went on a date and when she came home she reported that she will never go on a date with this guy again. These were her top reasons for giving him the boot:

1. He had 97 cowlicks in his hair.
2. He tried to parallel park into the same spot 4 times, until she got into the drivers seat and did it for him
3. He took his sweater off like a girl. (ie. one arm out, then the other arm out, then making the neck hole wider to pull it over his head without messing up his hair -- haha)

Are these valid reasons to say "No" to a second date?
