OMG! AOL did something funny! So where do you find taser guy Andrew Meyer, “leave Britney alone” guy Chris Crocker and “um…the Iraq” Miss Teen South Carolina all together in one place? In an AOL commercial for its new AOL News site, of course. Two other videos will be released and if they are as funny as this one, we just might forgive AOL for buying Time/Warner back in the day. The witty creative gurus over at AKQA are to blame for this brilliance.

I’m 66 and the biggest lesson I learned too late wasn’t about saving more money or traveling sooner – it was understanding that every time I said ‘I’m fine’ when I wasn’t, I was teaching people that my feelings didn’t require their attention

Psychology says the reason some people seem fine on the surface but are deeply unhappy underneath isn’t repression — it’s that they genuinely believe their feelings don’t matter compared to everyone else’s stability

Right now in a nursing home somewhere a woman who ran a household for 50 years, raised 4 children, buried a husband, survived a cancer scare, and managed a family budget through 3 recessions is being spoken to in a voice usually reserved for toddlers by a 24-year-old who means well but has no idea she’s talking to a general who lost her army

I’ve been married for forty-five years and the most hurtful thing my husband ever did wasn’t an affair or a broken promise — it was the way he started answering my questions without looking up from his phone, like I had become background noise in my own marriage
