Also, Mattie, in all honesty, I don't have a webcam. I hear Akiva just got a new MacBook Pro that has one built into it though...isn't that right, Akiva?

I admire the sneakiness of Pete

It does but somehow it stopped working after I punched it repeatedly.

HE'S A SNEAKY SNAKE!

Akiva could also use the webcam on his wife's new computer, that I hear also has a built-in webcam. Ya know, just in case his stopped working for whatever reason. Me, I'm still stuck with nada for video recording. Wish I could help...la di da...

Hey Akiva, how is it under that bus?

Mattie, like I said, no webcam, so you'll have to cope with an mp3, and it's super late right now, so I had to whisper too ( http://friendfeed.com/e... ) now, if the giraffe dies, it's on Akiva. :-P

Do it! DO IT! You don't have the balls!!!

Pete has saved the beloved giraffe. He was reintroduced to the wild just moments ago!

Hooray for the giraffe! Does Akiva even have a picture on his drivers license? :D

This is when you have been withyour partner for a short time and you are so horny you will have sexanywhere, even in the kitchen.The 3rd kind of sex is Bedroom Sex....

An email I just received from a soon-to-be-former friend: "The problem with you, is that you don't care what other people think. You're comfortable in your skin. You think you're cute and that that is all that matters. Meanwhile, the rest of us with body image issues are annoyed by that. You need to get over yourself."

- Rodfather
Mark, that's what I was thinking. I read that going, "Problem? That's a problem?" But this was a tip of the iceberg sort of thing. The last 6 months has been nothing but her telling me that I should be concerned I'm not a size 2.
- Admiral Anika
Is that for real?
- Adrian
People striving to be size 2 are hungry (believe me, I know). That makes them angry. Don't take it personal.
- Jess
It was going so well until the last sentence.
- Rodfather
YGTBFKM!!! And how old is this woman now? Who is upset that she has body issues and YOU DON'T? Who is still concerned about being a size 2? Sorry, she can't have that body back from high school (if she ever had it). I got tired of that crap a long time ago. Insecure people annoy the hell out of me.
- Helen Sventitsky
Oh, this was in reply to me sending her a photo of me and Adrian. I captioned, "Looking good after months of wearing jeans and t-shirts" THIS was her response to the photo.
- Admiral Anika
Jeez, that's almost abusive in a way. "How dare you be comfortable". My response would probably be "get a life!"
- Rick Cogley
LOL @Jess. @Rick, that's why she's a soon-to-be-former friend. We had a falling out over something similar 12 or 13 years ago. I told her to get back in touch with me when she grew up. She contacted me last fall and we've been chatting ever since. Then it got negative. I generally just ignore her little digs and whatever, but this was such a strange thing to say. I'm done with her.
- Admiral Anika
When one lives their life to cater to what other people think is truly not living THEIR life. She is in serious need of some deep therapy.
- Janet
Anika: Okay, this may be *way* out there, but... is it possible that this is her fucked-up, wishy-washy way of telling you that she feels like you're bragging, or acting superior?
- Roger Benningfield
Roger, see above for what this is response to. I do get accused of acting superior usually by people with low self-esteem, no matter what I say or how I say it. I just think this was a weird response to a photo.
- Admiral Anika
Wow. Buh-bye former friend with issues!

I really thought this was a joke. but.. wow... she has issues.

That ain't right. Tell her to keep her insecurities to herself and not project them on others.
- Eric @ CSTechcast.com
This is the photo I sent her:http://www.flickr.com/photos...
- Admiral Anika
Anika: My gut says it wasn't the photo as much as the "Looking good after months of wearing jeans and t-shirts". Which is a far cry from "Check out my fine ass, don't you wish you were me?", but it sounds like she took it that way. If she sees you that way, I wonder what made her want to reconnect with you?
- Roger Benningfield
Oh it's totally obvious now. Psh, get over yourself! ;)
- Rodfather
What's wrong with picture? You being happy getting on her nerves?

The ONLY person who has the right to tell you to change your body is your doctor, and if your doctor is telling you that you're fine, or is telling you that you're heading toward what you'd consider acceptable deficits "Listen if you don't lose 40lbs, you're never going to climb Everest! But you'll be able to walk around Disney without getting tired and do your yard work till you're 90" then you don't need to change a damn thing. Your friend needs a cock punch.

as rude and biting as that is, i would offer a bit of compassion first, as it seems this person is undergoing certain moments in her life that she probably hasn't quite come to terms with. this is in no way condoning her actions though and she should be made to acknowledge that before anything
- Cee Bee
LOL at "Listen, bitch..." I almost wrote an email like that last week.
- Kenya
I don't know any of the parties involved, but I think, Anika, that being super tolerant and forgiving would match the attitude that your "friend" noticed. Not saying that I would be big enough to do that, but I'm throwing it out there.
- Mark Horne
LOL...wow, Anika! Not sure how to answer, but they can kiss it and get over it themselves!

May I pile on? First, very cute picture; second, the woman who reacted badly is insane (narcissist perhaps?); third, I nominate Ayşe diplomacy expert of the year. (I may have some mother issues at some point . . .)
- MaryB, BrandingBroadOfFF
Mark & Cee Bee, I get what you're saying, but one of my fatal flaws is that I *am* unforgiving and quick to disappear a person who annoys me. One of my other fatal flaws is that I usually give the person a severe dressing down before walking away. Usually it's clear when something is leading up to a blowout. This was just so far out of left field, that it's hard to pick between the two.
- Admiral Anika
I'd bitchslap her and say something along the lines of "I don't give a damn if you're uncomfortable with your body. I'm sorry you feel that way but I'M NOT YOU. Take some Prozac and get over it." And then I'd run away. Fast.

- Joe Silence is not dead
@Sean if I follow your logic, how I should interpret large drop in then-USSR quality of life? had we got massive outburst of of social rage with consecutive growth of fascist elements? then Russia must be fascist country already for years IF your logic is applied, right?
- A.T.
Well -- America and Russia are two very different cultures. I'm really not sure how Americans will respond to a radical decline in wealth and power. We do know that neoconservatives have been stoking the flames of Judeo-Christian fascism in media outlets like Fox News for more than a decade now. Anything could happen.
- Sean McBride
It's interesting that some of the leading proponents of casino capitalism actually own casinos. :) Las Vegas-dominated Americanism is a far cry from the vision of the American Founding Fathers.

- Sean McBride
The same thing happened to Britain in the first half of the 20th century, and ya know, life isn't so bad over there. I really don't think it's the end of the world if the world no longer has a sole superpower. Might even be a good thing if it means less unilateralism and more cooperation.

What currency could replace the dollar as a global reserve currency? The yuan and ruble are non-starters. It's pretty much down to the dollar vs the Euro, but the Euro has the problem that it's not actually run by a single country .

Also, analyses like these don't look at the global picture - I'd still rather be us than China. China is a demographic and environmental time bomb that's just waiting to go off, and hasn't demonstrated that it has the economic adaptability that the US has. Further, the US still has some huge things going for it. We're the Saudi Arabia of the world's food supply, and this is unlikely to...

It was enough for me to go for the doorway in my son's room and wait it out, wondering if I needed to alert him. DIdn't. Left him to chill in bed while he thought we were were crazy.

Ahh that's the difference it was right here.

Where was that?
- Amir
lol @ Derrick & Alex. I'm on the first floor but it felt pretty strong since I was sitting on my bed. Not nearly as strong as the 89 one in the bay area ;)
- Tamara
And 5.0 is a few hundred times stronger than 3 or am i thinking wrong. Anyway main difference was under the city itself not out in desert
- Steve C
@Steve C, exactly. Not huge, it's not "The Big One" But it was good sized. Enough to alert us in case it continued.
- Katie: Whelmed Overly
As often as possible, Alex, but let's not focus on gay issues right now?

And correct, 5 is 100 times stronger than 3.

Would you adopt a child? Would you tell them they are adopted?
Mona Nomura, Rodfather, mjc and Alex Scoble liked this
And if so, what age would you tell them they are adopted?
- Cristo
Yes to both questions. I would start talking about adoption before the child is old enough to understand the concept.
- Gary Burd
And if you had another child in the family that was born from you and your partner, would that influence how you presented it?
- Cristo
I wouldn't adopt unless it turned out I couldn't have children on my own. If I did adopt I would definitely tell them.
- Louis Simoneau
No, but I have contemplated fathering a child, naming him Luke, then having someone else raise him... only to, years later, be able to intone deeply, "Luke, I am your father."

- CW™
if I wanted kids, yes and yes
- William Harryman
It's my plan too. A child via surrogate, and an older adoptive child. I'm firm that both children will know as many details as they can handle so they're prepared to deal with the idiots of this world who will give them a hard time.
- Jess
My sister is adopted, she's known the whole time, and she doesn't get treated any differently than me and my brother. Of course we adopted her when she was like 2 months old and she's just like any other part of the family.
- Michael
My sister had an unplanned pregnancy, we struggled with infertility. We offered to adopt or help her financially while she found another family if she was uncomfortable with keeping the baby in the family.The story did not have a happy ending. We would have told the baby he / she was adopted, but only revealed from whom if my sister had wanted it that way.
- Heather Solos
no. but yes. i have no desire to be responsible for how effed-up another human being turns out. no kids for me. i think that for those who do adopt, honesty is the best policy. something along the lines of "your birth mom wasn't ready or able to raise you the way she wanted, but she loved you enough to give you to someone who was."

Yes. Yes. One of my cousins was adopted and he knew all along.

I love how we've gotten to a point in society that we think hair on women is creepy. Now that's creepy.
- Kandeezie
we've gotten to a point in society where women as they naturally are is considered dirty/ugly/creepy. It started with waist size, then legs, then skin, then underarms, now crotch etc. What really creeps me out is that in the end what you're supposed to look like is, for all intents and purposes, a sexually mature, adult size 8 year old. And we wonder why pedophilia is on the rise? (yes, i exagerate a bit in that last sentence but it is almost a logical extreme to the current look expected of women)

- Brad Williamson
Gals, I feel sorry for you in the US and UK - if you forget to shave your arms (or cannot, perhaps you broke your arm or you want to go out camping) these men will suddenly find you disgusting. What about your own stinky armpits, males, can we wax them off for you?
- Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Hm...ninety years ago (more or less), the razor-blade companies realized that women weren't buying razor blades. Horrors! So they fired up the advertising campaigns: shave your armpits & legs, ladies, because hair is disgusting. It wasn't some evil patriarchal attempt to infantilize &marginalize women, it was crass commercialism. And it worked.
- Pat Rice
Strange also that the current fashion of male beardlessness isn't considered an attempt to infantilize & marginalize men.
- Pat Rice
That's because this has been a fashion for centuries - moustaches, yes, but beards, no... :D But seriously, without wanting to read too much into it, the fact is that we are all conditioned to view certain things as "normal" and others as "deviant" - and the trick is to be conscious of these and be able to shake them off at least a bit (which doesnt mean not shave, just not fall for...

Bearded men get the same flack. @Joelle - I sooooo agree. And @Pat, I agree partly. Patriarchy is responsible for so much. Don't dismiss it. And it does try to make women turn into legal little girls with the Brazilian waxes and such. It's a strong part of our culture to dislike aging women and idolize hairless young childlike females.
- Kandeezie
Bottom line is this, women shave their pits where I'm from. I'm not used to seeing a woman with hairy pits. On a logical level, it doesn't bother me. It's natural. This pic, however, throws the hairy pits in my face and makes me gag a little. I don't think many of us are used to seeing hairy pits at all. As far as the shaven ill nana, I don't mind a little netherfro (yes, I stole netherbeard from tinypants and pimped it...lol)
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
When people talk about the patriarchy, I wonder what awesome powers I am supposed to have received from my Y chromosome. I can't even persuade my three-year-old to leave the windowshades alone, but I'm regularly accused of dominating & subjugating women I've never even met.
- Pat Rice
@Pat It's hard to apply a concept that speaks about society to the individual. It's not about the individual, but the collective. That's why it's so hard to understand patriarchy if you only look at you and what you do. It's like when people say "why should I vote?"

I agree totally - nobody disputes the fact that smooth is considered beautiful in our society (and even though it is interesting to question why, most of us do what is needed to fit in, since we have the same conditioning - i do!), but notice that the conditioning is so bad people don't go "oh, that's not pretty" they go "oh that is disgusting" - that shows that it goes beyond esthetics into something deeper and a lot less neutral
- Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
thing is, that hair is clearly clean and dry. so even though i'm not used to seeing it, it didn't gross me out. an interesting pic would be a woman all glammed up and with makeup with the hair.

In addition to the fact that her pits are pretty hairy, who equates arm pits with anything positive? They're like, the first place you sniff to see if you stink. I think the hair just happens to draw attention to an area that many people aren't all that interested in anyway...LOL
- Rahsheen ™, Coach Rah
yes, the picture is also framed a bit unflatteringly - it might get a very similar reaction if it showed a man - maybe someone can make one to test this? PS: I disagree that women's sweat smells better than men's, some people smell less but on average it's a bit of a flat-yet-heavy smell that we could all do without (especially other people's smell)
- Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
Joelle, one thing to bear in mind is that women's sweat isn't supposed to smell better to you: it's supposed to smell better to men. Just like men's sweat is supposed to smell better than women. Moreover, that scent is exactly why we all have (or had) hair at the groin and armpit: those hairs trap naturally occuring scents and like it or not scent and pheromones play a role in human mating.
- FFing Enigma (aka Tina)
makes a lot of sense of course - i just happen to have a stupidly oversensitive sense of smell (most perfume smells bad to me and worse on me and I have been known to detect water leaks in the wall by scent) so none of it smells good :)
- Joelle Nebbe (iphigenie)
To each his or her own in terms of preferences, but it would be great if we as a society could get over the overeactions to people who make different choices than we do, particularly when those choices are more natural and require less time, less effort, and less consumption.
