What you're actually thinking when you run into an ex

This video made me laugh out loud. When's the last time you bumped into an ex? (Mine was on the bike path last year. I was wearing Alex's giant winter jacket, glasses and a backpack. Cringe.)

Are you dressing up for Halloween?

Are you dressing up for Halloween?

Illustrator Kiersten Essenpreis dressed her baby Harlan as Jerry Seinfeld's crazy Uncle Leo. Amazing, right? Apparently, she had the idea last Halloween when she was still pregnant: "I thought, 'If he's still bald by Halloween, we're doing it!' "
Haha I love this shot. And what did her baby think? "Everything was attached so lightly, he didn't even notice it," she said. "The hardest part was actually finding a purple turtleneck onesie for him."
Nailed it.

What are you going to be for Halloween this year? How about your little ones?

P.S. Toby as a giraffe, and a genius costume for adults.

Dinner conversation

Dinner conversation

When you sit down to Thanksgiving dinner, how do you begin a conversation? Well, artist Tucker Nichols designed these hilarious napkins to help spark a chat. His suggested topics made me laugh, including: What I know about cheese, mosquitos do/do not like to bite me, best fish tacos, how is everyone sleeping these days, food you used to like and for the last time how daylight saving works.
I would add: What trip you would take tomorrow if money were no object, childhood nicknames, the best meal you've ever had and everyone's top five books. What are your conversation starters?

P.S. What to say when there's an awkward silence.

Lena Dunham gives great advice.

Lena Dunham gives great advice.

Lena Dunham's much-anticipated book, Not That Kind of Girl, comes out next Tuesday.

To celebrate the book's release, Lena made twelve short videos, in which she answers fans' personal questions. They're brilliant; she comes across as intelligent, empathetic and so, so kind.

1. On dressing provocatively:


2. On being plus size:


3. On toxic friends:


4. On sleeping with bad people:


5. On being an insecure writer:


6. On dealing with OCD:


7. On bullies:


8. On having bad sex:


9. On dating someone who doesn't make you laugh:


10. On a fear of death:


11. On jealousy:


12. On being too loud:

Will you read the book? The New York Times gave it a glowing review, and Lena, reflecting on her tumultuous past, says: “I can never be who I was...I can simply watch her with sympathy, understanding and some measure of awe. There she goes, backpack on, headed for the subway or the airport. She did her best with her eyeliner. She learned a new word she wants to try out on you. She is ambling along. She is looking for it."

P.S. A Q&A with the costume designer of Girls, and Mindy Kaling's friendship advice.

How to ride a bike in a skirt

Have you guys seen this trick for riding a bike in a skirt? If you have a penny and a rubber band, you can prevent yourself from flashing people. (I also secretly want to be friends with the girls in this video. They're so cute!)

One family’s moving story of raising a transgender kid

One family’s moving story of raising a transgender kid

You might have already seen this video (it has 6 million views) but it's so important and moving, I wanted to post it just in case. What a beautiful family. (If you'd like to read more, this is great post.)

P.S. A genius speech, and New York gets it right.

The Office Time Machine

The Office Time Machine

Whoa, this is nuts: Joe Sabia spent the last year and a half creating The Office Time Machine, in which he has organized all the cultural references in The Office by year. For example, above is 1995, and below is 2011...
Look up any year you'd like. It's so addicting!

P.S. How to tell a joke, and Seinfeld reruns.
