Once again, dogs are better than humans.

On the one hand, I think you have a good point. They are a tiny percent of the population and if you are talking about them having appropriate representation it would be a very small percent of the roles.

I came here expecting something terrible. I'm pleased to be wrong.

In first grade, I don’t remember what happened but my first grade teacher, Mrs. McCarley, threatened to paddle every single one of us until whoever did The Thing confessed to doing it. (This was the 80s, so paddling was still a thing.) I did NOT do the thing, and I sure as hell wasn’t getting paddled for it, so I went…

I went to Catholic school, first through eighth grade. It was the first day of third grade, 1967. We had mostly nuns teaching, but this class was taught by a lay teacher (that would be a non-nun, for you public school kids). Anyway, since this was our third year in Catholic school, we were no dummies. We knew they…

I once had my legs crossed for long enough in math class that the bottom one fell asleep, and when it was my turn to go up to the board I put my weight on it and instantly face planted in front of the whole class.

What I have to offer is, uh, similar, but the opposite...? It was the second-to-last day of school and I was so relieved because that assholes Jordan had made my sixth grade awful. First he had made fun of me for being flat-chested, and when I very rapidly went from zero to C cup (adult bra department KILLED ME from…

So, when I was in kindergarten, I wasn’t allowed to carry an umbrella on the bus.

My mother was very prepared for my very first day of school - I was 4 years old - in all particulars but one: colouring pencils. She showed me my pencilcase with pencil, eraser, ruler, and one solitary red colouring pencil, and carefully explained that I was supposed to have colouring pencils, but there was only one.…

I fell in front of my art class but decided to not to show my mortification so I laughed until someone offered to help me up. I think (hoped) everyone just assumed that I didn’t give a fuck and was high.

Now, whenever I think of my uncle’s caved in nose, I won’t dwell on the horror but will instead fondly remember the time I finally won a pissing contest.

Re: “Former Fetus.” That is awful.

True story: I accidentally pulled out my first IUD when one slightly-drunk night, while sitting on the toilet, I noticed one of my long brown head hairs coming out of my vag. I pulled, and after a second of excruciating pain and a sudden terrible realization, I was holding my IUD by a clump of hair wrapped around its…

I called it.

Tyga may be “Stimulated,” but his wealth is simulated.

When I was 26 my cousin who is 13 years older than me had a toddler and a newborn. So, she was 39. We were talking about babies and how I wanted them soon. We visited her one day and she took me by the shoulders and with tears in her eyes said, “Have them young, save yourself, HAVE THEM YOUNG. I feel like shit every…

I’m 34...had my first baby at 17 that I placed for adoption because guess what? I wasn’t fucking ready. I’m currently expecting and due in August. I waited 17 years. I’m ready this time. I don’t need a reminder that my “life is about to change”.

No one should tell you when to have kids, but it is helpful to see information on what it’s really like so that, if you are in the position to do so, you can fully weigh the pros and cons. I feel like right now people really trump up having kids when you’re older, which makes rational sense for financial and stability…

It sounds like not having a kid is a great choice for you, which is good, because children should be wanted.
