I think high school really is the best time of their life - for some people. But who would want to be one of those people? Who would want to peak so early and be all downhill from there?

You’re very funny. Plans change. Paths change. I’m maybe an oddity (I’ve always been odd) but I got into a good college, dropped out because I was so depressed I couldn’t get out of bed for weeks and missed all my finals, went back to a shitty, not-hard to get into college, graduated with all As, temped my way into a…

Andy Richter: discovering that? Hasn’t that been a KNOWN thing for decades? I’m not the hippest of folk, and I’ve known that since, like, 1996.

Yes yes yes!

Agreed, but I also think (hope) most white people feel “You go Ahmed, you smart, sweet kid!” It’s just that the ones who don’t are usuallly those making the most noise.

In this case, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree (as opposed to my case where the apple isn’t even on the same planet as the tree).

I’ve only had to clean up after a gross drunk person once (a friend who blew chunks all over my parent’s bathroom when my parents were out of town during highschool and who ended up in the hospital getting his stomach pumped) but I digress...

Spoken like someone with all the maturity and wisdom of a middle schooler.

Yes! So much this. My boyfriend doing it, all good. Some guy at a party, a wedding, or A BUSINESS event (yes, that happens)... HANDS OFF BUSTER!

I think people are making too much over semantics. She didn’t write an essay about this, she was having a conversation and she just didn’t make the very best word choice as often happens when people are talking off the cuff and haven’t pre-planned every word choice.

“I’ve gotten all my sisters on it and all my friends.”

Kim Richards is just on sad, lost, mess. She really needs in-patient treatment for like three months or more. Her poor kids.

Whatev. That’s how my dad taught me to eat ‘em when I was a little thing.

Plus she threw Madonna and Annie Lennox into the mix. Not just the youtes of today.

I tried to wax my legs once. The first strip caused me to bleed and left a horrible rash but did not remove any hair. (It was the night before a beach vacation so that was a cute look at the pool.) The first strip was the last strip and after that, I would never in a million years consider getting my delicate private…

I like this article a lot. Regarding all the criticism from commenters about considering yourself fat when most people do not consider your height / weight anywhere close to fat:

This is for real? How fucking awesome. I have a feeling Patrick Swayze would approve.

She has real charm and charisma and star quality though. And she comes across as such a sweet kid on the show that you don’t begrudge her confidence or success one bit. She’s the rare reality break-out star that should be a star based on talent.

Spot on. I remember almost everything here from the mid-90s and how hard it was for me to find a normal pair of pants in a flattering length.

Yeah, like Beverly Johnson!!! Sure it’s a money hustle thing.
