In my house we have problems with impulse buying food/beverages... its bad for both our waistlines and our budgets. To make matters worse... at my boyfriends big fancy office they have a credit system that allows you to buy food/drinks from your future paychecks at just a swipe of a card... Last year he spent several…

When I used to work at a certain large retail store our inventory system would DRIVE ME NUTS.
So... what would happen is the system would generate a request to count the quantity of a certain item... lets say its a specific box of pencils. I would go out and count 6 of them. The next day the system is confused why we…

To be honest I never really understood the “all boys school” dynamic... especially for young children. When I was in school it always seems like the teacher purposely used the girls to split the boys up and keep them under control.... pretty much all hallway lines went “girl, boy, girl, boy, girl” for that reason. …

In the area I grew up which was about 50% white, 30% Mexican, and 20% black- the only abused kids I can remember where all white.

I remember one girl in 4th grade that was constantly covered in bruises and was half crazy- She’d sleep through class every day and our teacher never said a word to her about it unless she…

OHHHHH!!!!

I never connected my chronic headaches as a child to potential dehydration. When I was younger I basically had a headache 24/7.... my doctor was stumped and told my mom I was just making it up (which pissed both me and my mom off). Around the time I hit college my headaches became less frequent and now are…

I guess I never thought about why.
Probably because I’m claustrophobic of both crowds and tiny spaces.
I usually get a window seat and sit there staring out it the entire flight to give me illusion I’m not packed in a flying sardine can. If I had to get up I would need somehow squeeze past all the strangers next to me…

Yeah.... I’d say PA and DE are mortal rivals. I used to live in PA but only 2 minutes from the state border. Of course every Christmas everyone hops the state line to Delaware to take advantage shopping without a sales tax and all local business probably want to blow the state off the map. Also... I feel like…

I’ve never felt comfortable even peeing on a plane let alone pooping....
I have to admit the 12+ Hour flight to the Philippines back was pretty awful... Like I was at that point holding my bladder where my body was no longer even sending me the “PEE NOW GODDAMMIT” sign and instead I felt nothing but a giant hard full…

But... teacher’s don’t really let kids drink water in school.
When I was a kid all you could drink from was water fountains or during lunch.

The water fountains were always half broken... the ones that worked had a slow trickle of water coming out of them- and the teacher would only let you take a sip so that there…

I have had serious hearing problems since I was a kid due to repeated illnesses in my youth that did enough repeated damage to my little ears to be permanent- and its infuriating having to sit through a movie or show that doesn’t have closed captioning because I can never quite hear enough to guess what they’re saying…

So what will Trump focus on next?
I’m glad we’ve survived this nightmare (for now)... but I’m sure he will just fill the new schedule with new policies about how puppies must be deported for being too cute, and putting in new laws that prohibit women from eating chocolate.

You know... after months of working out- eating healthier- and just feeling so good about myself—— I look in the mirror and think I’m beautiful... and I look at my pants and notice they’re huge on me. I think in my head “Oh yeah! As a reward I’m gonna go out and splurge on some nice clothes that fit the new beautiful…

Same here. When I about 10 I bled for 6 months strait and had to get on Birth Control to regulate my period which took about another year to get sorted out after trying several different medications.... also passed out a few times through the years due to anemia related issues that resulted from my bodily…

In my experience I’ve only called 911 twice in my life.
The first time was on a cellphone... I was 17 and I was locked in my room with my screaming baby brother while my mother’s boyfriend was beating her up threatening to kill her and burn the house down and take my brother away. I was so upset at the time I couldn’t…

Washing Knowledge I’ve Learned over the Years:

Don’t put brand a brand new red shirt in with a load of whites.... or your boyfriend may become very angry that most of his work clothes became unwearable over night.

Make sure to actually wash your bras... if you just wear them till they start to smell FUNKY you’re doing…

I’m at that time of year where I’m trying to hit about 15,000 steps per day and its not too difficult because the weather is beautiful and I could just stay outside all day. During the summer though its a little bit more tough since I live in San Antonio where going outside for long periods of time can be a risk to…

Solution: buy a giant industrial size bottle of normal store brand Ibuprofen... I mean... that bottle is awfully tiny considering I spend more than a quarter of my life in so much pain that in some more stressful moments I’ve considered the benefits to giving myself hysterectomy. One of those moments was 2 weeks ago…

I remember the one video game meme of my elementary school.

My 4th grade art teacher was a bit strict. He wouldn’t let you talk at all in his class... you just had to sit there in complete ghostly silence while you worked because talking would be a distraction to our inner muses (*Rolls eyes). If you even asked a…

Gummi Bears are evil D=
They tried to murder me when I was 5 years old and nearly choked to death on one. They all taste like death to me.

“You probably already know car rental companies try to upsell you on renter’s insurance (in many cases, your credit card might already have you covered).”

In many cases your normal car insurance also has your back.
I used to work for a Car insurance company for several years whose contract offered almost identical…
