Not on this list, but the other day my husband told me he'd high five me if I ever cheated on him with Tom Hardy.

I totally read that in GLaDOS' voice.

A friend of my mom's has a missed abortion in Ireland in the 70s. They wouldn't give her a D&C because they thought she was trying to trick them into an abortion, even though the embryo was clearly dead. She wound up with a 107 degree fever and almost died.

Nothing is going to happen to him, absolutely nothing. The best we can hope for at this point is giving small solace to his victims by believing them.

Hey, remember the part where I said I misremembered the details of the study and then stated them accurately? And did you notice that the link was a summary of an academic study, which you can look up and view? People who spend a moderate amount on large weddings, and those who elope, have the highest statistical

My husband made me a couple early in our relationship, but they involved retrieving the songs from dropbox.

What are you TALKING about? We sit in coffee shops, read Thomas Pynchon and make mix tapes.

I did misremember this, but basically the highest longevity is correlated to a "middle of the road" wedding and the presence of a honeymoon.

Our moment of cultural ascendancy died with Kurt Cobain.

That was my first thought. Maybe it was only supposed to the deposit or something?

Funnily enough, large and somewhat pricy (which is to say, average priced) weddings are correlated to long lasting marriages. Really expensive and really cheap weddings are correlated with short marriages.

They keep forgetting that us Xers even exist.

There's a least one generation between Boomers and Millennials. HELLO, LOOK OVER HERE, WE DO THINGS TOO, YOU KNOW.

Because superstition leads to harmful acts. Is it okay if someone's religion tells them it's better to leave a sick child unmedicated? Is it okay if someone's religion tells them it's okay to kill, hurt, maim, or enslave people? These are real things that happen, and religious superstition is being legislated into

I am from a group like that (Jewish), and I don't understand it. And neither did my parents or grandparents. My great-grandfather did, but he was busy dodging the Czar's pogroms, so it's understandable.

What you're describing isn't remotely how healthy relationships work. It's fine if you have positive reasons for not wanting to date — because you have better things to do with your time and energy — but the way you've described it, you have a deep fear that's clearly experienced based (parents?).

Your first priority is for YOUR friend, the person you love. It's ridiculous for people to think you would throw someone you know as a complete person, as more than this one decision, to the wolves on behalf of some lady you never met.

Yeah, sure. That's why they're paying some two bit hustler to teach them how to dehumanize women. It's cause of all those fulfilling experiences they're having with women.
