    Tired of “words I can’t pronounce”

    @genxjeff It's so embarrassing when people will point to an ingredient list exclaiming "ewww, I won't eat this, I don't even know what [half-assed attempt at pronunciation] is!" Like, ma'am, the entirety of human knowledge is at your fingertips, I promise you can crack this case.

    Y’all, it’s not our fault

    Shorter parents, do y’all worry about your son’s eventual height and whether or not it will prevent him from marrying if he so desires?

    @phillip2015 My husband and I are both short. We got married so it didn't stop us. I am not worried about my son. Among the general adult population seeking someone with whom to parent and spend a lifetime, there are usually a lot of things that are bigger priorities than height. Toddler is...
