smh, Connie would be so disappointed

I did break up with a guy once because he was too picky. The final straw? When I made breakfast burritos while he was still sleeping, and once awoken to a full breakfast waiting for him, stated "I'm not eating that. There might be something I don't like in it."

I feel this could be a very important article for many people - thank you. I haven't seen this topic addressed as accessibly as this before, and I'm sure many Lifehacker readers are either in this situation or will be soon. I will certainly be forwarding this to many friends approaching these decisions.

Thank you for putting this together. My parents are a great deal older than my friends' parents and are in poor health. I am not really at the age where you're supposed to think about these things, but I have to and its scary. But this is really helpful as a jumping off point.

We don't teach history to help you get a job, we teach history because without it people grow up to be ignorant jerks who deny that things like slavery and the Holocaust ever happened.

The fact that you can't see the connection between math (i.e. solving for variables and graphing functions) and taxes, budgeting, and car ownership is a sign of a more serious flaw in the education system.

BACK IN MY DAY WE WORE 3 SUIT JACKETS WHILE WATCHING TV AND WENT SWIMMING IN WEDDING DRESSES.

I like seeing North wearing clothing that the power of advertising taught me isn't toddler-wear. If I didn't see it on a baby on tv or in a catalog (where I was being told to buy it), I know it's wrong! You see, companies that make babies' clothes are obsessed with ensuring the babies' comfort (definitely not making…

Ugh, I hate the people who are just impossible to explain anything to. I had a conversation about pesto this week that went like this:

if you can't stop at a couple of drinks...if you always drink to get drunk....if you're a blackout drinker...if you hide your drinking....if you start losing friends because of drinking...

Today is my second day in rehab and I am not happy. I am not happy that I have once again put myself, through thoughtless actions, in a place in life where I have had to surrender my housing and schooling, in order to attempt, yet again, to get my shit together. On the upside, I watched The Golden Coach by Jean…

I have no advice to offer, but I feel ya! I hate being condescended to and it's even worse when it's regarding something that's a touchy subject to begin with. I'm so sorry you're dealing with all that and not getting the kind of help/support you need from him. That's gotta be rough. Hang in there!

Now all the anchor stores, multitudes of the regular stores and even the freaking mall Starbucks are closed, but still we are open because the mall itself isn't officially closing. Firstly, why the hell not!? Secondly, I hate everything.

My teenage daughter recently started identifying as "gender fluid". She cut her hair short over the summer and started dressing more masculine-loose baggy clothing to hide her shape. Now she wants a chest binder and I'm not sure what to do about that. From what I understand it can cause deformity when a person is…

"I give in just enough to get by".

I haven't stopped by here for ages - helloooo everyone!

I'm so sorry that you're going through this. I know it's your dad so it's a bit more complicated, but lots of us have stayed in ugly relationships because "no one else has loved us like them". But know this: you deserve to be loved better, and someone will come along who will. I promise this person will show up, but…

Well, my boyfriend just broke up with me, and is now packing up all of his stuff and leaving. I had no idea that there was a problem, but apparently I am "extremely condescending and egotistical." I was unaware of that. Truly unaware. I also don't know if that is true at all. I like to think that I am a very…

I wrote this in the GSA article comments the other day but it already had nearly 800 comments so it was lost. I wanted to share and be open to any questions. I'm tough so I can take criticisms, etc. I just felt like original author didn't explain a lot of the complexities.

Kristen Stewart winning a César award is actually a pretty huge deal. She is the first American actress to ever win it, and the first to even be nominated for it in 33 years. The most recent nomination received by an American was Adrian Brody in 2002. It's an incredible achievement.
