Wait... Are you me?

A friend of mine who’s bi says one reason she didn’t realize it for a while (like, 15 years) was that there’s so much language around women objectifying women that she didn’t know that when everyone else said “She’s so hot, I’d totally turn for her.” they didn’t feel what she felt.

Infants dressed as animals (or dinosaurs) are the cutest. Once they get to toddler stage then they are cutest when dressed in mini adult clothes (suits, tiny work appropriate dresses, trench coats.) These are objective facts.

This upsets me even though I don’t want kids because Aidan was my pick for a boy name when I was 16. All these basic bitches stealing my ideas... When Eileen gets popular for girls you’ll know who to thank!

That’s amazing! Peru is definitely on my list... So many people I know have been there and loved it. Depending on the exchange rate I think my cheapest room was either €6.60 off-season in Santorini, or 1500 dirham for my sister and I in a private room in Morocco.

I’m seriously asking... Is there a way to do this that does not involve wealthy parents?

It depends I think how you define “wealthy”. In 2008 I worked two jobs for seven months and then travelled for six months. To help me save, my mum let me live with her for minimal expenses. My family is not wealthy, but firmly middle class and the fact that I could live with her basically for free (I think I paid $75…

Haha, as demonstrated in some of the other replies! This does give me comfort.

As someone from one of those countries where we don’t tip, who is now living in a place where they do, it is honestly really confusing. I’ve figured out restaurants, bars and taxis. Advice from this site helped me master the delivered vs pick up food. But so many areas still elude me. Haircuts, manicures, hotel…

I think I’m a pirate so she’s in good company. Or at least in company.

This made me think so much. What makes me a woman? I don’t know the answer, but I am definitely going to think about it. Thanks!

Haha, me too! I was like “Two Entourage articles? WTF? and then I got to the BJ pic and went “Wait, what?”

Especially because I think it silences some really interesting and possibly important conversations that we could have if they weren’t screaming. Because being cisgender gives me privilege, but I do think that presenting as a white male through childhood and adulthood has different privileges - not in a “privilege…

Haha, my total exposure to the US Office is reaction gifs on Tumblr.

For most of us outside North America there is only one Office... Like I actually don’t think the US one ever played in New Zealand. I’ve never seen an episode.

It made sense to me - I think we were both on the theme of surprise cum on your face and that whether the situation was funny or gross depended on the expectations of the cumee and the intention of the cumer. Also on theme: Kinja likes to surprise you with content in places you didn’t expect, which can be funny or…

Maybe double check the birth year for Barbara Mullen? 1939 would mean she was 16 when her husband died and 17 when her last editorial ran. 1929 or 1919 maybe?

Well I thought we were sharing a moment but you know, if it was all in error... It’s fine. I’ll be okay. There are other Kinja connections to be made.

I unfollow people a lot so then I get in trouble for not knowing something because it didn’t show up in my feed. I have remedied this by looking at their Facebook page before we meet up IRL.

You’re a better person than I am. I use my free time to stalk friends from high school to make sure my life is cooler than theirs.
