One of the many ways men are privileged over women is they don’t deal with the same constant bombardment of the-not-quite-Ponzi-scheme-but-somehow-even-more-awkward LulaRoe/Scentsy/Roden+Fields/body wrap sales pitches from high school classmates on Facebook.

My dad will always go up to random strangers wherever we are and talk to them just for something as small as wearing a tshirt with something he likes on it. It has always irritated me but no one has ever been anything but nice to him. I could never do it and that is probably why he will have 1,000 people at his…

Do yourself and everyone else a favor: don’t have children unless you’re just DYING to raise children and be a great parent to them into their adulthood and for as long as you live. Then maybe have just one. The world is chock full of shitty parents who thought they would be okay, or never even thought about it at…

I hear that a coworker spends $1500/mo on daycare. I realized I could fly to Europe once a month just to go have lunch and then come home. Choice was easy.

The best age to have a kid is when you are emotionally and financially ready and have a loving an supportive partner and family to help out, when the world is a safe and nurturing environment in which to raise them, and when they have a bright future ahead of them, full of wealth and opportunity.

As a lady, I have to disagree with Drew’s take on missing barrettes.

The rituals and accessories make it look less like alcoholism.

That is 100% true, in the past when it was home media, no one watched them. Now with phones there is a chance someone will send a photo to a grandparent/aunt/that uncle you can’t leave the kids alone with, etc. but even then most of them will not want to watch it.

I remember asking my father as a child (I think around 4th grade) why he never videotaped my school concerts or performances like the other parents (back in the day of giant camcorders, which we didn’t own). And he replied, “All week you’ve been complaining about this stupid concert, and now you want me to videotape…

And you want to be my latex salesman.

I HATE having to buy a new vacuum every year or two!

I encourage anyone considering pet insurance to do their research. Be sure what is and what is not covered. Be careful of what might be excluded because of ‘preexisting conditions’. Also, as your pet ages, expect the cost to go up sometimes by a lot. It can definitely help you when an accident or major illness…

Chris, sorry I was so harsh, but the math doesn’t work out. The only way insurance companies can charge $75 a month is if pet expenses for their customers average far less than that. They have to cover administrative and marketing costs, and worse, some people will game the system and never buy insurance for their…

This insane, insurance isn’t a free ride, it’s very expensive protection against expenses you won’t be able to afford. And if you have a pet, you damn well better be able to afford to pay for its health care.

Anyway, I assume that tellers are trained to LET you rob the bank, specifically because they already have so many security measures in place to catch him after the fact.

I was a bank teller 10+ years ago (and was actually in a bank that got robbed, although I didn’t realize it because I was working the drive thru) and yes… they absolutely tell you to just handover the money and whatever else they want even if they just pass you a dumb note and obviously aren’t going to murder everyone…

I go by my middle name, because it’s a normal name. My [Mexican, Catholic] mother decided finding a beautiful name from the bible would be great for me. So I have a name no one knew how to pronounce in elementary school, or they made fun of it.
