Ugh, he performed at my college during my sophomore year. I was all excited to go but my friends were all a bunch of wannabe hipsters who were waaaaayyyy to cool for the “gold digger guy”. I was too insecure alone, so I didn’t get tickets.

I’ve always thought my 8th grade self would be pretty impressed with my grown-up self: I’ve got a good career that lets me creative, I’m an accomplished marathoner, I’ve got a Master’s degree, a house, and (most importantly) a boyfriend.

I don’t get it, this is me everyday*

Please tell me this Rita Ora bit will be featured in Shade Court.

Wasn’t this the same guy that prevented Rita Ora from releasing an album after they broke up because he’d written/produced most of the tracks?

If it makes you feel any better, I only learned about the Armenian genocide when I was 16 because I had a crush on an Armenian guy.

It’s a bookend of hotness.

I’ll be 29 shortly, but I can’t wait to turn 30 so I’ll no longer be expected to keep up with trends.

I feel like a lot of recent self-proclaimed libertarians (especially of the mansplaining variety) like to think it makes them so much smarter than everyone else.

My father used to identify as a libertarian before it was cool. Then “libertarian” became a catch-all for the crazies and suddenly he was all “I never said I was libertarian, I’m more of a classic Conservative in the styles of (names some philosopher/economist I’ve never heard of).

I’m sure there’s a some political nuance I’m missing, but it seems like every self-proclaimed libertarian in my age bracket (late 20s-early 30s) is that way only because of the seemingly pro-legalization stance (or it’s “I don’t want the government spying on me, but everyone else is fine”); ask them about any other…

Ugh, Maher makes my blood boil.

I’m thinking of adapting “Bitch Better Have My Money” as my go-to mantra for any situation.

Umbrella a lesser known hit? Pretty sure that was her “breakthrough” that put her on top of all the charts.

When I was first scrolling through I didn’t “see” blackface, until I got the the third one…yeesh. Now, looking at #2, I can’t tell. I still think #1 looks like every YA urban fantasy cover from the late-90s.

Dangit. Are Kylie Jenner photos the new “The Dress”?

I drink about 1-2 drinks (wine or beer, depending) almost every night. I’d like to cut back since: A)alcoholism runs rampant in my family; B) at 29, the empty calories are starting to catch up; and C) I don’t want all the cool stuff I’m doing with my life to be undercut by people thinking I’m a lush.

This is the same paper that tore Bridget Moynihan apart….for having the audacity to have a baby with Tom Brady.

I don’t get it now and, as up tight as I was in high school, don’t think i would’ve cared during my actual prom. IIRC, two girls showed up to our junior prom with the same dress. They went “oh hey, nice dress” and carried on with their lives.

My favorite part of "Motherlover" (besides all of it) is watching Sarandon and Dern break character and crack up.
