'X-Factor' Judge Cheryl Cole Told to Dump Boyfriend Derek Hough {PopEater}

May 24th 2011 8:37AM If anybody really falls for this transparent publicity stunt, please say hello to Santa for me.

Kathy Griffin's Newest Palin to Pounce On? Willow, 16 {PopEater}

Jan 5th 2011 1:42PM "...Kathy is way too smart a woman..." Whoa, has the American definition of smart slid this badly? Since when is it smart to show the world your worst mean-spirited behavior and poorest judgment. Every nasty remark she makes about the Palins, especially the children, says nothing about the Palins, but says a whole lot of nasty about Griffin's warped character, impaired judgement, and total lack of smarts.

Miley Cyrus Ruined My Daughter's Name {ParentDish}

Sep 8th 2010 8:26AM I read The Name Lady column with the same fascination as witnessing a train wreck in progress. This column is about as ridiculous as The Jersey Shore. Do any of these people have lives, anything productive to do with their time, or any sense of real values or problems? Seriously, could you imagine your depression-era great-grandparents putting their kids to bed hungry, without enough coal to heat the house, listening to the news out of Germany whining because some movie star had the same name as one of their kids? Do you think any parent caring for a child with leukemia is mewling over a cousin giving her kid the same name as one of yours? Does a mother watching her kids' clothes dumped on the sidewalk because their home is being foreclosed really care if her kid doesn't like being named after grandpa? There is only one good answer to every letter I've ever read in this column: grow up, suck it up, grow a sense of value, and start thanking God for all your blessings--somewhere someone doesn't have them. If this is what our nation is producing in the way of citizens then America truly has no hope of a future--how about fussing about that for a while.

'I Love Boobies' Bracelets: Popular With Kids but Schools Object {ParentDish}

Sep 5th 2010 8:37AM There's no controversy here, the bracelets clearly go against previously existing school regs, so just leave the ridiculous things at home. Buying them may support cancer research but wearing them does nothing except show that you had bad parenting and have no class. Really, how many cancer patients lives depend upon having an idiotic kid giggle over puerile obscenity? Who was the idiot who started this campaign? I hope the ACS fires his stupid hide--it's not boobie cancer; it is breast cancer; and it is serious, not something for idiotic kids to be giggling about? Yes, I've had family and friends die of breast cancer and that is exactly why I am so opposed to this horrible boobie campaign, which so minimizes the gravity of cancer striking you or your family.

'Real Housewife' Danielle Staub Heats Up Morning Television With Sexy Dance Remix {PopEater}

Aug 25th 2010 4:07PM Wow, that was so unbelievably...awful.

Candy disguised as pills a bad, and overpriced, attempt at fun {WalletPop}

Jun 2nd 2010 9:43AM How could anybody even think of something that is both so idiotic and perverted? This is the dumbest idea since making poisonous household cleansers smell like lemonade.

Co-signing a loan is like bad credit waiting to happen {WalletPop}

May 2nd 2010 8:10AM I don't know anyone who co-signed for a bill or a utility hook-up that didn't buy himself a horror story in the process. In several cases the collection agencies didn't even go after the person who owed--because he wasn't working, had a bad history, etc., and Deadbeat went off scott-free. They went directly to harassing the hard-working co-signer, who appeared to be a more responsible person and thus the better bet. The rule of thumb for direct loans or co-signing is save yourself the grief and just give the person the money as a gift up front because that's how things will turn out eventually. If you can't afford to gift your friend with the money, then you can't afford to co-sign either. Same rule for Guarantors--Deadbeats know how to slide out from under--just watch a few Judge Judy episodes.

'Can I Afford This Condo?' She's 24 and Ready to Be a Homeowner {Lemondrop}

Apr 28th 2010 10:00AM Absolutely ridiculous! With articles like this no wonder young people have such strong delusions of entitlement and no idea about what constitutes responsible money management. With no steady job or the all-important benefit package she is not only expecting to pay down her enormous debt but also pay her mortgage, and condo fees! What about taxes, insurance, ever-rising utility and gas prices, automobile expenses, furniture, appliances, repair costs, FOOD? The article does admit if she can't find enough jobs (hey, what if she gets sick, gets pregnant, or has an accident?), she is screwed, but that is not true. It is the taxpayers and other bank customers who get screwed. The mortgage holders never lose and somebody has to pay--and that would be ME.

Are Crying Kids Cute? {ParentDish}

Apr 16th 2010 9:51AM Totally agree. Besides being absolutely amazzing that a creepy mother would film such an intimate, painful moment, it is even more amazing that about 1/3 of the people voting found a child's emotional distress cute. Those people must not know what heartbreak is because they have no heart--or soul. That kind of separation anxiety can make a small child seriously sick. We are truly becoming a society that does not care about children.

A Tabloid Star is Ruining My Name! {ParentDish}

Mar 26th 2010 10:14AM Wow, this is one of the dumbest letters (and answer) I have ever read in my life. I can't believe anyone wasted the time and space addressing it literally. Vienna has some really serious issues that need to be adddressed, but they have nothing to do with her name. If she gets her knickers so twisted over imaginings this petty, what is going to happen when she has to encounter job loss, mortgage foreclosure, an auto wreck, a lawsuit, divorce, widowhood, a sick child, or a cancer diagnosis? Please, Vienna, grow up, get therapy, get a life. Way better advice: if you start to feel sorry for yourself because of your name, visit a pediatric ward, take a mission trip to Haiti, volunteer in a soup kitchen, or join the military and fight in Afghanistan.
