Maybe an unpopular opinion but can I be the person to recommend Prana’s stretch Zion pant? Hubs has a nice pair of ABCs and a glorious dark wash jean that I swoon over, but he gets more mileage out of his Prana pants than anything else… but then we’re dirtbag climbers so what do we know.
Also of note, ABCs don’t hold true to their name when a harness is involved…
I somehow landed a job that was supposed to require 10 years of experience when I had 0 years in the role and 1 in the industry. So good to know I’m not alone at feeling incompetent, but trying really, really hard anyway.
I left Job 1 for the above-mentioned prize and would go back in a heartbeat if it wouldn’t hurt the people that helped get me here. Trying to decide if that makes me a special snowflake. PGP
Unrelated to the article, but every time I see 5OClockShadow’s name on something my brain reads “50 O’Clock” instead and I chuckle every time at that mental picture.
This article is really frustrating. Husband will openly admit that I could run circles around him when it comes to traditional learning. One of the best compliments I’ve ever gotten from him involved me taking a CS class online and then cuddling and excitedly explaining how binary works… to which he responds, “Are you even real?” (NOT “ew nerd can you not”).
The experiment is badly designed – I suspect it may be more measuring a man’s response to being beaten in competition than his response to a smart girl. I don’t openly parade my smartness in front of my husband; I brag on his strengths instead (I admire the heck out of his ability to be a leader at work, home, and among friends – people want to follow him like nobody’s business. He can also diffuse a situation with humor, invent a new recipe, or back up a trailer better than anyone I’ve ever seen) and he does the same for me. It’s about finding a way to be one the same team. I would still be unapologetic about beating him in competition, though 😉
I also once dated a manipulative, passive aggressive child who insisted on taking a college class together and then wouldn’t speak to me for days when we would get test scores back.

I was also trying to point out that your comment was witty. The glass is half full, my friend.
Really, really wanted to upvote this but my inner grammarian will never be on board with possessive knees

I had to laugh because there’s actually a YouTube miniseries about this called Single by 30… the actors are Asian.
But seriously, it’s a good show.
Can we hear about the one and a half times that expectation-defying satisfaction has been topped? Particularly intrigued by the “and a half.”

But which is the more cardinal sin – not decorating, or decorating for Christmas too early? Asking for a friend.
I need to know… is he the same in real life???
Laughed way too hard at “only Jordan can only hear 30 percent of what the person on the phone is saying”
Name checks out
Legitimately my favorite show

TLDR: Smart ladies, there is hope.
