On Tales from the 'Lost Generation': Newly Unemployed
I am not trying to be sanctimonious here, I am actually curious how other people paying one's bills works. Do checks get written directly to landlords from the third party? Does the third party just put an agreed upon sum in your account every month? Is it something that the adult kids propose or do the parents offer it outright? I feel like in retrospect I could have talked my folks into it, but I would have been too mortified to ask.

On The Golden Rules of Thrifting
@Kate Amann@twitter My feet are a wide US size 10 (line forms to left, boys) and I rarely find women's shoes that fit at thrift shops, especially teeny narrow delicate vintage shoes. I have GREAT luck with men's shoes though, especially with all the menswear looks right now. Oxfords, loafers, etc.

On Growing Up Means More Money But Less Fun
@Darkest_of_Dawn Or what's wrong with sending a note in your card that says you made a donation to some charity in honor of all your loved ones this year, love us, happy holidays? I don't expect Stuff from my extended family, that's absurd.

@Not social, media.@twitter Exactly. She is entitled to her experience but there is a difference between describing how expenses can often rise to meet your current income and saying that things are rough now that family sends a litany of Christmas demands (???)
