I had never heard of spitfires before so I googled them. Ew.

It’s not you. People hardly ever take each other’s advice. Just be there and be a good friend to them when they inevitably make the same mistakes. It’s just part of being human. And be flattered that people think you’re smart enough to ask for advice from you, even if they don’t follow it. :-)

Super shit news: this week I found out I have cancer.

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what good/bad traits I’ve inherited from my parents. Tonight, I’m thankful that I’ve somehow inherited my dad’s liver/alcohol tolerance. He’s 6’3” and maybe 200 pounds (I’m bad at estimating weight), and my sister and I are both 5’10”, though she’s about 20 pounds heavier than I,…

You win for hilarity!

That’s the kind of thing where you’re simultaneously glad cell phone cameras weren’t a thing and wishing desperately for video proof.

Gaaaaah! The worst I've had to do was sit on ice packs for a few hours. I hope he was at least nice about it.

Okay. That’s definitely the most awful creepy crawlie experience on this thread.

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

I love this story and you for telling it.

I live in Australia, so I’m pretty tolerant of creepy crawlies.

I’m sorry, but I’m laughing my ass off at this.

AAAAAAAAAhaaaaaaaaaaah

Ran across this fucking thing at a gas station down the street. Huge. STUPID huge. In Iowa, not South goddamn America...IOWA. Turns out it’s a Dobson Fly, not dangerous, but seriously WHY ARE THEY.
