White people are always late to the party.

She totally would! And she would bring a huge audience. But these musicals have been setting a very low bar.

Yup. PTSD here, too, and it came as a huge surprise at the time. I still find myself telling what I think are normal childhood stories and only realize when my therapist/friends/husband/stranger on a plane are sitting there in open-mouthed horror just how fucked up it is.

Neglectful parents - "I taught you how to be self sufficient!"

Stop it. Set boundaries. You do NOT have to accept it because you are the oldest, most settled, or any other bullshit. When he turns up, tell him firmly he cant't stay, you are sorry. Then stick to it.

Agree completely. It's unbelievably rich to hear Boomers accuse other generations of narcissism considering they're the most narcissistic generation America has yet produced. Millennials have NOTHING on Boomers. These are the people who broke the country, tried to hand it to us, and when we went "uh, hey, this…

Homeless teens have it even worse, because usually going to a shelter means someone calling CPS. For the first month, I had supplies I'd taken from home. The second month, I…

Not the Jim Carry abomination before God that TBTB run all December and I get all excited "OH, The Grinch Stole...OH FUCK IT'S THAT JIM CARREY CRAP FUCK YOU ABC FAMILY."

Depending on where you get it, it can actually be not that great. It's really more of a melted butter delivery vector than actual quality foodstuff in its own right. If you just get some imitation crabmeat and melt some butter for dipping, you'll get a rough amalgam of a cheap lobster dinner.

Ladies and gentleman, I give you the tale of Saint Basil Fuckoff, the patron saint of waiters and bartenders.

Wait...do other people NOT accidentally punch themselves in the face frequently?

"...marriage is basically figuring out how much weird you can love in another person."

Unless it was necessary

According to the article the owner said the guy had been there two weeks and already had two complaints against him, so this was his third strike and out the door.

RIP, Edward Herrmann. I didn't know he had brain cancer.
