"Nobody expects to see many black people in, say, Pride and Prejudice and frankly, as three-quarters of white people don't have any non-white friends..."

I don't like him. Don't mess with Gauhar!

IDK, my husband is celiac and he's thrilled that he can go to a restaurant and not get weird looks when he asks for a GF menu. Or that he could buy Thanksgiving stuffing in the regular grocery store. He's perfectly happy for it to continue being a trend.

Straight out of the Predator's Playbook. Like Cosby firing Lisa Bonet for getting naked in Angel Heart (how immoral of her!) even though he's openly palling around with Hef at the Playboy Mansion. (To say nothing, of course, of everything else he was doing to women that we now know. But I was puzzled at the time,…

i can never eat mayo in a restaurant again after the manager at the burger king where i worked was caught with mayo. the vat of mayo that was out on the line. i wasn't there when it happened, it was about a week after i was hired, by that manager. so i don't know if the restaurant was open, if he was caught on camera…

When I was a tender 16 years old, I worked at Hardee's with an...interesting...assortment of people. One in particular was named Rick, and I could only describe him as an opportunist. He didn't identify as gay or bisexual, but at the time in question, he had a sugar daddy, and he basically worked the late shift at…

...he save bread...?

It is, of course, all about ethics in dental hygiene.

Call me when they invent 24 hour horse penis.

My friend was sexually assaulted at a college party one night, so her boyfriend found the guy's home phone number and called his mother in the middle of dinner to tell him what he had done.

You had never seen a person repent so fast before.

Uuuugghh this girl is fucking painful to watch explain something, I can't deal right now.

I have naturally dark, course hair and had no issues other than a lil dye run off the day after- love my astroturf pits! Keri Scherbring at Bang! Salon in Seattle did a wonderful job!

my wife will just order a salad or simply say, "eff it", and order something suspect and if nails her, she deals with it for a day or two.

Immediately after I got married to my ex, he started to freak out on me about how he was now "settled" and he was afraid missing out on all of these mythological "experiences." Like, we actually got in an argument because he didn't think I would agree to "drop everything and just travel around the country for a…

Maybe she assumed, as I think most of us with healthy friendships do, that our friends will act less like petty self-appointed adjudicators of our personal decisions and more like…friends.

My cousin got divorced shortly after her first marriage. I'm not sure exactly how old she was - roughly 23-24, married less than a year. Her and I aren't terribly close so I don't know the full story but I'm pretty sure the entire family was totally supportive. A few months after the wedding, her husband decided with…

I wish I'd had the experience of divorcing the schmuck in my 20s instead of doing it in my 40s. I would have not had the years of hell in between.

Thanks for sharing this. I left my husband at 24 and it was the best and hardest decision I ever made. From the outside, it seemed as if I was wholly to blame for the breakdown and as such I lost a lot of friends over it. I spent years believing that I was no good at relationships and that it was all my fault.

Just FYI celiac disease is not an allergy that causes anaphylactic shock (although I'm sure those exist). The symptoms are more along the lines of digestive problems, and chronic issues related to an inability to properly absorb nutrients (fatigue, anemia and the like).

I can't believe there's almost no bruising. That is extraordinary. AND they gave him a badass nose!
