I’m with you. I’ve watched her videos and was surprised to read here that they’re considered exploitative. Many of her videos are devoted to ridding patients of blackheads, a practice she admits most dermatologists avoid since it’s time consuming and not medically necessary. For patients with an abundance of them,…

My husband and I used to have this problem. If we have a stressor, I want to discuss it to death and he wants to leave it alone until he’s ready. We finally agreed on a ten minute venting session where I can let fly, and then we put it away. It’s been surprisingly good for me, he’s much less stressed, and we don’t…

I could really use some love right now. My husband just told me that he wasn’t willing to try on our marriage. We’re ending.

Having actually caught an intruder in my house and reacted in a way that I think most people would find ridiculous*, I’m generally reluctant to proclaim that anyone’s behavior in these sorts of scenarios is ridiculous. People act on instinct and what they do in a moment when adrenaline is clouding their judgment…

Oh, mine would have. The thing is, she probably is hanging around with a lot of people how are not her friends. Freshmen are often crammed into dorm rooms four to a suite, or sometimes even in pods of four suites. I know the child needs an actual college experience, but maybe the administration can arrange for her…

I am beyond tired of being a white woman that is expected to apologize

One thing that I noticed with cases like Hoffman. It’s that they seemed to think that it was OK, even normal, to behave like that. As if women should expect the men to do the things that they did.

Awesome! That lady’s a beast. For those who don’t speak climber: “send” means that she climbed the whole way up without resting on the rope or on any piece of gear attached to the rock. She essentially climbed using just her hands and feet with no assistance (though a rope was there for safety). Super impressive.

it’s just the weird mindset of wanting the person that hurt you to be the person that’s hugging you and telling you that it was an accident,” she says. “I wanted to feel like I was in control of the situation and not him.”

This is stupid but I have to put it somewhere-

“He has changed a lot in the past few months.”

Aw. This is ridiculous but Abel Tesfaye looks a lot like one of jinni’s former (and very dear) boyfriends. I was kinda rootin’ for them.

Same! And, my dear grandfather who passed away when I was 11 was named John, which made it even more touching to me.

That one about Rome is terrifying. “Come here, pretty pretty.” Creepy AF. I had expected it to be one of the winners, but am glad it made the runner-up feature.

Does anyone recall a story from the comments in recent years (I’ve looked and can’t find it) that was super disturbing - it was a guy on a road trip who stops along the way, and wherever he stops, there’s a really fucked-up message and like, roadkill guts waiting there for him? That story haunted me for awhile after I…

That is a GREAT line.

I'm supposed to point out a label on a shirt? I'm supposed to assume he can't read?

My utmost sympathies to your wife.

"I'm not eating off of the toilet"

EVERYTHING they are? The sum of a man's existence is to drop hot dogs and have moldy toilets?
