I mean yes animals shouldn’t be paraded in costumes for our enjoyment because usually, they look uncomfortable as fuck. BUT THIS. This dog is the most badass dog. And he makes The Oldes smile! Please tell me this isn’t real.

I assume my ex freaked out, but he didn’t contact me. He and I were together 7 years and I broke up with him because I “wasn’t ready for such a serious commitment” (he had started questioning me about moving in together, getting married, etc., and I was like, whoa dude). But then five months after our break-up, I got…

This sounds like my insufferable coworker. She does not walk, she SKIPS. “OMG YOU ARE WEARING PURPLE? PURPLE IS MY FAVORITE!” is an actual thing she said once. She is a fluffy ball of child-like energy, she’s also dumb as a box of rocks, but apparently she’s a better person than us all.

Oh god no make it stop. Low-rise were all the rage when I was going through puberty. I stuffed my muffin top into so many pairs of ill-fitting jeans, I still have nightmares.

Chicago was the one I was planning on (I live out in the ‘burbs)—maybe they DO have weekend appointments but just no availability for the several months I looked at on their web calendar. Either way I was surprised and outraged that it was so difficult to get an appointment! I loved the dress I saw online but wound up…

I fell in love with a BHLDN wedding dress online but could not secure an appointment to save my life. Granted this was my fault for waiting until 6 months out from my wedding date to even show an interest in looking at dresses...but still. They only have the BHLDN stores in bigger cities and at least at mine, they…

Ew, this reminds me of an argument I had with my ex (key word: ex) when ballet flats first started to become popular. He thought they were ugly; I thought they were cute and relatively comfortable (in comparison to heels, at least). Also, he was only four inches taller than me, so I didn’t much like wearing heels with…

It absolutely amazes me that they are still together.

You can be monogamous but still explore with fantasizing and/or porn with your partner—that is, if you’re “out” with your partner. I’m in a hetero relationship but my partner and I both identify as bi so we explore that within the constraints of monogamy with fantasizing, dirty talk, porn, etc...in the moment, we’ll…

Ugh their broccoli is so rubbery and gross! But they often have awesome deals on pineapple, blueberries, and other produce.

I hate Adam Levine and I don’t even really know why, it’s just a feeling. So I definitely clicked because I have a sick satisfaction knowing he was sugarbombed.

I get you. Of course we’d all like to believe that we would be supportive, open, etc., but this reminds me of the storyline in OITNB where Laverne Cox’s character is transitioning and you can tell the wife of the character is having an impossibly difficult time with it. She loves the character but I specifically…

I didn’t know either! I also did not realize how old he is! 76? he does NOT look 76!

My hair is usually all over the bathroom — sink, floor, shower drain — and at choice times, my fiance has gotten HEATED over it. However, I would stand to argue that finding his pube trimmings and beard trimmings in the sink and around the toilet (is it normal to groom your pubes standing near the toilet, gentlemen?…

I’ve been loving this interview series. I’m finding out about so many interesting books I otherwise wouldn’t have heard about (loved the “childless by choice” interview). I read Prozac Nation as an angsty teen and of course loved it then—but reading this interview was hard for me. She seems like she was being…

Not to give any credit to this douchenozzle, BUT, I have noticed on days/weeks that I tend to be more social than others, that my relationship kind of suffers. It's no fun sitting on the couch trying to watch something with someone while they are texting/Facebooking/whatever and only paying half-attention, and I have…

This is hard, because sometimes I legitimately try to distance myself from my looks in an objective way and think, "what would I think of me if I passed me on the street?" and, it's HARD. It depends on the lighting. It depends on my hair that day. It depends on if I put effort into my face (ie, penciled in my brows).…

We learned after Mom had too many glasses of wine at Thanksgiving dinner (as adults—this was just a few years ago) that my brother was an accident. We still laugh about it. I rub in his face that I was the planned one. :P

Revlon colorstay is the BEST. I swear by it! I experimented with other drugstore eyeliners during a very confusing time of my life, and none stood up to Revlon. Walgreens does a BOGO deal most of the time, I've noticed.

I feel this so hard! I have always been sure, just 100% positive, that I do not want kids. My fiance feels the same. But, he's also damn good with kids, and it makes me smile and think "what if?" I don't think I would make a good mother, and he has genetic ish he doesn't want to pass down, so I truly do not believe we…
