I have been struggling with guilt over buying food for a few years now, to the point that not buying it (for no "real" reason than that spending money makes me anxious) has affected my health and scholastic success. Thank you for including your last line. It just triggered a mini-epiphany for me.

Except that it isn't "extreme". This sort of thing happens quite frequently, actually.

“Also, assholes are assholes, why is it my fault some guys are assholes?”

I've often times "taken that regrettable trip to 7 Eleven and stocked up on cheese puffs, microwave burritos, and, well, everything else edible." But I've never once smoked pot.

My cousin and best friend, both of whom are personal trainers, have told me that if you are not in shape, you should work your way up to, not train to the point of getting sick and passing out. If you have trainers telling you that this is a healthy thing, you need to get new trainers.

$465?! I was reading this article expecting the amount to be much much more. I don't know how much the debt was at that school in Utah but if it was even close to this amount that makes it even more ridiculous that the school would be throwing away the kids' food over a few hundred dollars.

You aren't responsible for what your ancestors do, BUT you are responsible for what you do with advantages you gained from their behaviour.

Why not set up a scholarship or two at for people of Bajan heritage. That's something I can get behind. There is a strong possibility that he wouldn't be where he is today without being decended to a slaver.

YES. YESYESYESYESYESYES!

Yeah, seriously. I mean, what about the Smurfs? We can't in good conscience exclude them. Especially Smurfette!

"air of grown-up mature but still having that subtle touches of sex. Robin Thicke."

Can I recommend Good Will or used clothing stores? Sometimes you can find really nice pieces. Are you in the US? Marshalls and TJ Maxx are good options, I have found some nice pieces for inexpensive prices for my brother and father.

Have you seen the Dr. Nerdlove blog? He has some good fashion-for-nerdy guys articles, with solid, quantitative advice for guys who know very little about choosing clothing. It was really helpful when my brother had to dress for interviews and his internship.

My rule is to only tell sex stories if they're funny.

It's this guy, which is another kind of fail bc he was big in transcendental meditation, which is not actually the same as mindfulness meditation.

We eloped. Friends and relatives were upset and disappointed but they all got over it. The marriage is about only the two of you. The wedding day shouldn't put you into debt. That can't be the best way to start a marriage.

Unfortunately, when art meets mass media the concept of "the death of the author" comes into play. The artist may think of his piece as edgy and avant-garde or whatever, but we the audience think of it as stupid, and we are perfectly justified in our view.

There's an older definition of irony which is speaking the truth without knowing it...

Absolutely, 100% this.

That woman is wildly irresponsible, it is what she is.
