I'm 29 and made myself tater tots for lunch!

Because she's 13? I climbed Kili which is much more touristy than Everest and even though thousands of others have done so it doesn't diminish the internal accomplishment I felt when I reached the top.

how is she being narsistic? she is fearless. She has more mental and physical endurance and spirit than most of us will ever have in our lives.

Would you prefer if these girls went out to do gymnastics instead? Or chess? Or Computational Cosmology? They are all about as useful as climbing Mount Everest in the long run.

The moment I heard that Everest is littered with frozen corpses and that they're often used as road markers ("we're near the dead guy in the red parka, only 100 feet to the summit!"), I decided I never wanted to be anywhere near Everest.

And I'm 29 and tripped over my own feet down the staircase this morning.

Salad Fingers scared the shit out of me.

Smh. Dear, you aren't the only academic here, so don't feel too special—some of us don't find it necessary to drop titles and degrees garnered in an effort to be considered more important than everyone else. Other solid human beings on this message board—even those of us *gasp* without advanced degrees—find it

I don't know. I live somewhere that is extremely violent often with 50+ people shot every weekend and we still say "kill 'em" and "murk that" and stuff like that. It's not triggering to me or anyone that I have ever met—praise language like that exists in a totally different sphere than real violence.

I'm sorry that happened to you, and also that something similar has probably happened to most women. The irony, that when you turn down sex with a total stranger, men call you a whore. :/

I was out for my birthday last Saturday night and was out dancing with my friends. Literally in just our little circle dancing away to some cheesy 90's music. Some guy came up behind me and just would not stop groping me. I removed his hands and said 'No' at least 4 times, eventually I just moved to a different part

Um, have you ever heard of a METAPHOR?! Many songs talk about killing people on the dance floor. Or murdering on the floor. It's a description of being an awesome dancer. Are you going to rally against make-up videos that that teach us how to 'beat our faces to filth?' It's called the subversive language of

Yeah, it's not like she said Celiac disease was bullshit. She's talking about this ridiculous trend and she's right a reviewed study showed that gluten-intolerance is not actually a thing. People who think they are gluten-intolerant are actually probably having reactions to the normal food allergens like milk, soy,

My favorite is asking people following that fad to explain to me exactly what gluten is and why they can't eat it. So many can't.

I was skeptical of the prevalence of people jumping on the 'gluten-free' bandwagon, then I met a co-worker who went gluten free because she 'did a lot of reading on the internet.'

It's pretty spectacular, isn't it? "Opulent enough for Florence's Medici dynasty and tacky enough for reality TV."

I want to delete my entire post and replace it with this.

Kat Dennings's cat's silent meow just about killed me. Too cute!
