This. If I had enough money where I could just sit around my huge ass house reading comic books and taping podcasts, I’d be SO HAPPY.

Because pregnancy tests don’t work the way you think they do. They detect a certain hormone in the urine, which isn’t usually present in large amounts until the time of the missed period. Even the super fancy “early detection” ones say they can only detect 7 days before a missed period. Setting aside how ovulation…

Have it all you want. Just don’t start vaping in a place where you know you wouldn’t be able to smoke. Vaping in your own home? A+, please continue. Vaping outside? Go for it! Vaping in a god damned movie theater like the asshole at my showing* of The Hateful 8? GTFO.

I don’t have kids, but we’re trying. And we live in LA. The horror stories I hear about these kinds of schools and the public schools make me seriously consider homeschooling.

It’s not that it’s not acceptable. In cities (where the jobs are), most people are transplants. That support network of aunts and parents doesn’t exist.

Pretty much. They even pay lip service to “oh, some people say it’s not as bad because Beyonce is black.” Uh, no. She’s still an American woman wearing another culture as a costume.

The everything is a _____ coordinator thing pisses me off so much. Depending on industry or even company, a coordinator can range from an assistant to freaking junior manager. If you’re applying for a new job and you have “coordinator” in your current title, they’ll either think you’re underqualified or over. It…

Awww. That’s sweet.

Yes. That’s a great way to break your neck.

Thank you. This drives me nuts. The other thing that drives me nuts is people who say “there is no evidence!!” when there has been sworn testimony in a court of law. Testimony IS evidence. Evidence does not always equal “something found by the CSI unit.”

I honestly believe that the white people yelling “all lives matter!” cannot possibly fathom that anything is not about them. They’ve been catered to literally every day of their lives, so they think every movement will have a place for them. If it doesn’t, they cannot step outside their own experiences to say “wait,…

I won’t click the link, but did they specify what “unnaturally” dyed hair is? Like, purple? Or are we talking anyone with some highlights or anyone who covers the grey? Because if it’s the latter, they’ve just decided to rule out 85% of the female population, including those Victoria Secret models they feel they’re…

These men may have laboured under the belief that no-one would give them a chance unless they were making $x a year or lived in an apartment in xlocation.

This. For a very brief period of time in my life, I was what I referred to as an “Old Man Magnet.” From the time I was 19 - 22, the ONLY men who would message me on dating sites were 45+. And every single one wanted to immediately settle down and have a family. I wasn’t even out of college for most of this window, I…

I’m sorry you’re going through that. In no way did I intend for my comment to dismiss the very real emotional pain a lot of couples experience when trying to conceive. We all make our choices. For me, my husband and I made the decision not to pursue any sort of fertility treatments if it doesn’t happen naturally. He…

Understood. However, I see a lot of people telling women to have children ASAP without any acknowledgement that people are getting married later. I’m sure there are a lot of women out there who would love to have had kids in their late 20s but didn’t meet anyone until they were in their 30s. Not everyone gets the…

I’m really sorry you’re going through all this, but I think it’s crazy to tell women have have babies by age 30. I didn’t even get married until I was 31, what should I have done, popped out a baby at 22 with some random guy I had no feelings or connection with and then been a single mom while finishing college/going…

I’m late to the party but I just wanted to say - you have every right to say “no.” I understand your reasons as you’ve laid them out here, but consent isn’t just for ladies. I’ve had a similar discussion with my own husband. His libido is much (much) lower than mine, and early in our relationship I realized that he…

Hello, I am a living woman and I haven’t had this experience.

I take my lunch (even if it means eating at my desk and surfing the internet.) I’ve decided I’m not doing the whole “CORPORATE AMERICA IS MY EVERYTHING!” crap anymore. That means - if I want to go get a cup of coffee, I get a cup of coffee even if it means my boss will walk by my desk and not see me there. If I want…
