Eugenics issues aside, if population control is truly the issue here, they should start mass-sterilizing men instead, considering that a vasectomy is a safe, non-invasive procedure. But no, it's women who get the short end of the stick, now and forever.

Incorrect. I can DEFINITELY have an opinion on people who have dangerous home births, and who put their lives and the lives of their children at risk for extremely stupid reasons. I can think those people are fucking reckless morons and also think that we need to do something about our shitty prenatal healthcare,…

I definitely get to have an opinion about a friend who would post pics on Facebook of her baby crowning in her vagina. But of course, my opinion centers around her poor social media skills, not her birth.

I can get behind Kathy Bates, but, no more Adam Levine, right?

Yeah, and apologized; she thought my health was too fragile to tell me the truth.

In 2010, I had the distinct pleasure of heading to a conference for work in Baltimore with colleagues I couldn't stand. (And blessedly, I no longer work there). My boss made it a point to stress repeatedly that we should find the cheapest hotel rooms possible, so I got my own room at a hotel separate from theirs.

Gah. *shudder* Also, I went to high school in the IE. *shudder*

This happened in my junior year of high school.

My parents just bought a house in Maryland. When they were in the process of buying it, I immediately asked how old the house was and how many previous owners there were, because I am an avid horror fan and I do believe in ghosts. My mother told me that the house is pretty new—only one previous owner, who was selling…

I have some great ghost stories, all of which involve my friend Sarah. Now, what you have to understand about Sarah, right off the bat, is she was never the brightest girl in the world. No kidding, until she was 16 she thought Alaska was an island next to Hawaii (because of how maps of the continental US are drawn).…

I've briefly mentioned my house on GT before, but here's the whole story! I've lived in my current house for several years, and have always felt the "not quite alone" sensation the whole time I've been here, pretty much from day one. I remember the very first night I spent in the house, I was sitting at my…

When I was a kid I used to go to church with my aunt and uncle every Sunday, and after church, my aunt would go up in her painting studio and paint and I would mess around and play pretend or whatever in the living room. One weekend in November when I was 9, my uncle went out of town to go hunting, so my aunt and I…

That is just fucking terrifying. My god... Seductive, abusive ghost boyfriend. Part of me wonders what would have happened to you if you hadn't switched with your sister.

My grandfather (Papaw) died in a car accident when I was still an infant. Naturally, my mother - always a Daddy's girl - tried to insure that I had some idea and concept of him growing up. We had dozens of photos of Papaw and my grandmother around our home, and I spent my very early childhood with a solid idea of what…

So I don't know if this is spooky, exactly, but it is a little otherworldly:

I once had an adverse reaction to medication that put me in a coma for three days. When I awoke I was absolutely infuriated by the ventilator, because there was something critically important that I had to say, to tell someone, immediately. It…

You know those long stretches of highway that are just woods on both sides? My sister told me that was where killers hid their dead bodies. So every time we would drive late into the night, on some trip, I'd lay on the floor of the backseat, because I was scared to look out the window — for fear I'd see a ghost LIKE…

Not scary now, but when it was happening? Terrifying.

No. the zombie apocalypse is scary. This scenario is FUCKING TERRIFYING.

I am quite certain the only times in my life I've ever spoken the words "F*ck Ghandi" were during Civ V matches.
