If you win the lottery tomorrow...
You can buy 36 Kim Kardashian-Kris Humphries weddings! Or 18 years of Peyton Manning. Or 256 Lamborghini Reventons, 61 million In-N-Out Double-Double burgers, or one and a half new Boeing 787 jumbo jets. Whatever floats your boat.
How would you spend the $359 million lump sum?

Lighting couches on fire is a now a thing in...
And it’s all Rick Pitino’s fault.
I am a 10-year-old couch. The people who bought me gave me to their son when he left for college in Kentucky. On Saturday night, after the conclusion of the Kentucky-Louisville basketball game at the Final Four in New Orleans, there is a good chance I will be dragged out of the living room, onto the lawn and set on fire, just like many of my kind...

Coquette: Advice for delicate drama queens and...
Do you think it’s valuable to experience sex with a lot of different people? (I suspect the answer is yes, but I want to ask anyway). I mainly ask because I’m 20 and I’ve only slept with two people. And now I’ve now been in a serious committed relationship with my current boyfriend for two years. I absolutely love him, and we can talk about everything. But I find myself fantasizing a lot about...

Coquette: On marriages and manwhores
Dear Coquette,
I’m getting married in the fall. My fiancé and I want a very small wedding, held outside, with a nonreligious ceremony. My parents are livid. I am 25, not 17. Why do they care so much?
