When you gaze into the abyss, the abyss also gazes into you

Except give him a fake nuke code that Will trigger fireworks that spell YOU’RE FIRED.

Every. Other. Weekend.

As the daughter, wife, sister, and daughter-in-law to veterans, I also concur. The hateful, racist comments I’d hear from old vets while waiting for my husband at the Birmingham VA were appalling. The waiting room tv is permanently set to Fox News, so it was always a matter of time before someone starts ranting about…

This specific scenario is why I always make up pseudonyms. I’ve been in contact with the story’s author since it took off, and while it’s possible Starbucks might track them down, I’d be kind of surprised if they faced any reprisal for it—neither he nor the company comes out of it looking bad at all. In fact,…

At 9 found my dad’s porn stash (magazines) in his bedside table. Had to page through a couple, of course. The “Chicks with Dicks” (their title, this is early 80s) photo spread is seared in my memory.

To preface this: the following story takes place in Florida.

I was a 14 year old band geek dating another band geek. One day I come home to find my mom furious and my big tough dad crying. No joke. Like someone had fucking died.

He told her I was but I was not ;) He didn’t even check. He just had me sit in there for a minute.

My mom is an amazing woman.

I was seventeen and a senior in high school. The way it worked at my school was that we had prom and then we were off for about a month before graduation. It was during this period that my friends and I decided to buy/try weed for the first time. I’m naturally high strung so the whole process was such a debacle that I…

Once, my mom and dad told us they were giving us the house for the weekend while they were taking a cruise. I was 18 and I was going to have friends over. It was going to be a fantastic weekend!

My dad was a pretty serious LOTR nerd before it was cool, i.e. before the movies came out. He read all the appendices and books by Tolkien’s son annotating his father’s notes and books about the linguistics and collections of artwork about Middle Earth. Two of these artists were particularly considered to be experts,…

Female police cadet here. I think it’s very important that we have diverse police departments, women and minorities included. Do we have a lot of work to do to improve our current departments? Yes. But we can do this!

No, I always knew it was extremely cheap, which is why I tip 50% or more. But those prices are the going rate in NYC. I didn’t have power to change that. So I always went to the same salon (that had the same staff—not random day laborers) and tried to support the business and workers as much as I could. I knew there…

His rationale for such a decision is two-fold Huckabee explained, it protects both fetus and mother: “There are two victims. One is the child; the other is that birth mother who often will go through extraordinary guilt years later when she begins to think through what happened — with the baby, with her.

This actually made me cry. I am crying.

Shitting on TV people: so classy.

“Stop licking the cat”?!?

Snapchat. Eff that noise. I don’t get it.
