Yeah, you can do a hell of a lot worse than “kinda boring”.

Tinder wishes “basic bro” was their worst type of user. Dating sites and apps are plagued with creeps.

I was expecting the first comment to be something to the effect of “Grew up in Katonah and went to Exeter =/= goth”

Ok can we talk about the fact that when it’s girls acting strangely or violent, teachers/law enforcement/everyone are quick to take action and prevent tragedies.

The spark joy thing is definitely not well understood. In her books it’s explained a lot better but also I think it’s going to mean something slightly different from person to person.

There’s one unintended, ironic effect of Marie Kondo’s show and it has nothing to do with getting rid of shit: I now understand why 70% of married women initiate divorces.

And that includes the failed cruise my family tried to take when my mom left my and my dad’s passports behind* so we…

I have . . . genuinely never had a bad time on vacation. Other than occasional small logistical problems, nothing bad has ever happened to me, and I’ve never been “disappointed.” And I have traveled a lot!
