my second favorite "band" of that era is bone thugs n harmony, so I could just be a weirdo

see I've always seen them as honest songs about what it means to have a crush as an adolescent. Looking back, the fact that they were all in their early to mid-twenties during this time speaks volumes about how stunted they were as human beings

as a former lurker who no longer drinks or visits club, let me tell you what was going through my mind.

the mark, tom, and Travis show?

that's the least defensible obviously, but my idiot buddy was blaring "with arms wide open" in his car the other night, and damned if I didn't know every word and damned if I couldn't get it out of my head the rest of the night

My body had such strong emotions and my brain came up with the worst ways of expressing them. Dick jokes, asking girls out on aim, constantly contemplating suicide. The best years of my life!

When I was about 14 a young lady grabbed my butt through my khaki pants and I just assumed she was being mean/making fun of me because there was no way girls were into sex

I wrote a text message to an ex that was kind of like one of these. If their writing process was anything like mine, it involves a lot of deleting reference to suicide to look happier. Even so, she ended up calling me and asking me to take care of myself, which wasn't quite the take me back reaction I'd hoped for.…

Like I get it, getting in touch with yourself and loving yourself are important things for people who can't make families; but why subject presumably other grown ups who don't give a shit about you to it?

My ex found out she was pregnant shortly after we broke up. I told her that it was her decision, and I supported her 100% in whatever she decided. She said that she considered the fetus to be 50% mine and wanted my input. I proposed. She was like, "I was just saying that. I'm totally sucking this thing out". I was…

Hilary Coker believes life begins at conception

that rapist looks so sad in that picture. I hope he's beaten to death in his cell.

if the latest in natural philosphy is to be believed,serial killers can be overcome with a hug and some kind words.

I feel like the only way you could accept that comment at face value is to assume that I am too detached from reality to even be worth addressing.
