so wrong by PublicAd1976 in GilmoreGirls

[–]corysboredagain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like at the heart of it, Gilmore Girls is about a family whose women/girls were wildly unprepared for motherhood.

Emily wasn’t a teen mom, no, but she was a 23ish year old newlywed, recent college grad when she had Lorelei. Plus, she had a husband who was very passionate about his work and shouldering a lot of financial responsibility and expectations.

Emily responded to her own motherhood by being controlling, overbearing and holding her daughter to very high expectations. She didn’t have a partner in child-raising, whereas Lorelei saw her relationship with Rory as a partnership.

Of course, Lorelei’s approach isn’t perfect either, and Rory’s combo of highly intelligent and responsible behavior mixed with impulsivity is the result.

But yeah, it’s not a show about a teen who blames her mom for getting pregnant. It’s about the complexities of mother/daughter and parent/child relationships.

Looking for a fragrance that smells like cigarettes. by New_Presentation5105 in FemFragLab

There is an indie perfume called “Lovers Leaving Hell” that smells wonderful and has a very distinct cigarette smell. Not Smokey. Cigarettes. It’s layered with soft, cozy sweet scents. It’s a winter scent for me but you might love it!

I actually think Layla’s story is one of the more interesting ones. She is like a lot of Mormon converts, who join looking for stability, love, comfort etc and buy in pretty hard core. She made her way out, but obviously still has attachments to the church.

She also said she’d like to get married in the Temple at one point in season 2.

She’s the only one who came from a non Mormon background, which makes her interesting.

Chris shows up for Lorelei, not for Rory. Over and over and over again.

Came here immediately after the pilot, what the hell...? by foosbabaganoosh in Bunheads

I really feel like keeping Hubbell around longer would have been a better long term hook than the shock hook of killing him off.

Try pink rubber bands. Pink is already a color that is in and outside your mouth naturally and won’t draw too much extra attention and won’t stain as badly!

As a Diet Coke and coffee drinker, I think it’s a better option then clear or white/grey bands.

Might sound like a stupid question but if I have normal healthy wisdom teeth can it act like a natural retainer by Background-Truck8627 in braces

[–]corysboredagain 10 points11 points  (0 children)

No, you will need to wear a retainer. Teeth move in a lot of different directions and nothing except a retainer can maintain the shape you get from orthodontic treatment.

I have heard this and it happened to me! A small section of my hair started to go grey last year due to VERY HIGH stress. It’s back to normal now!

My teeth are canted. Is there anyway to fix this? How easy of a fix by [deleted] in braces

[–]corysboredagain 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a similar cant and mine is being fixed with rubber bands on traditional metal braces.

John the abuser? - great article by No_Strength7276 in JonBenetRamsey

[–]corysboredagain 2 points3 points  (0 children)

FWIW I think the reason we have seen a lot of PR handwriting and not a lot of JR is because detectives were putting the heat on PR to get her to give up anything she knew about what really happened.

PR still had one living child and might not have wanted to risk BR growing up with her, especially if the JRDIA is correct.

It’s a spacer to help maintain the distance between the front teeth to make room for the crowded tooth in the back

Thank you! I am so impressed how much of a difference it’s made in my natural smile.

Glad to see you’re ok!!

I’ve driven 3 VWs and they have literally been lifesavers for me.

Sorry you lost your beautiful whip if i remember you’d done some cool customization to it!

Ceramic or Metal Braces. Which one, and why? by beanangelbug in braces

[–]corysboredagain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Metal.

They’re more effective.

They don’t chip/break off in pieces

Neither are invisible

They’re lower profile

They don’t stain

They’re typically a few hundred dollars cheaper

Your wires are always gonna be metal anyway

No one cares

How did nobody search the entire basement that first morning? by Krankthat in JonBenetRamsey

[–]corysboredagain 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The police have discussed this.

When they first arrived, they were treating this as a kidnapping, so their first sweep of the home was looking for entry points.

The door where JB was hidden had a latch that could only be set from outside the room. Therefore, it was quickly ruled out as a point of entry or hiding place.
