bassguitarhero's all-purpose guide to life: Are you going to do a thing? Have you spent more than 3 seconds thinking about it? Have you thought about it from literally anybody else's perspective other than your own?

I'm glad it was put out there on the air from someone with the voice that Oprah has, that it is okay to have found the abuse pleasurable. Maybe it's becoming a little less taboo to say it now, but I'm so glad she told him that it's not wrong to feel that way.

Meowing at cats generally just gets ignored with a look of mild disdain. Unless you can accurately mimic a kitten. Some cats will lose their shit trying to find the kitten. My male cat never fails to be perturbed at not having a new little sibling. It's kind of funny and sad how upset he gets. I'm a horrible…

"We [men] are getting blamed for this kid's mental problems."
Dude, no, we're not. But a lot of us are getting blamed for the kind of everyday behavior that may differ from what this kid in degree but not in kind. Have you ever been really nice to a girl you wanted to sleep with, only to get pissed at her when you're…

I see a handful of people claiming that the photo in question is from a porn. I'm not going to do the research to find out if that is accurate. However, I doubt that the caption is from said porn. Additionally, even if this is a porn actress, this does not automatically indicate she (or anyone else) was "asking for…

Tattoos are about the people who wear them, the audience is secondary. They mark important moments, ideas, hopes, dreams, people, or just ideals that are important to them. It's a visible reminder and it's etched into their skin.

I think that's the part people don't really understand.

Closure is so over-rated and not really understood. You don't get closure - you just learn to live with the loss. And if she recently lost him, why shouldn't she do those things?

You never know how you are going to react to the loss of a loved one. Until I went through it a few times, I also wondered if certain acts of other people were "healthy." After, I realized that it was my discomfort with the fact of death that made me question other people's actions.

No different than having a photo or going to his gravesite. It's just a very public way of grieving, which may make others uncomfortable. But it's not about other people.

I share things I find that are funny or that remind me of my family members on their walls. It'd be really hard not to do that anymore. Over time she…

I keep meaning to do that. But honestly. Any hackers would get the dullest pictures of me. So unless they're into frumpy students that are always angry looking...they're not gonna get much.

YUP. I see those stupid Verizon commercials that are like, "Control your locks, lights, and phones remotely!" And I'm all NOOOOPPPEEE! 'Cause THAT'S not a horror movie waiting to happen—somebody kills you from a remote location in Colorado by switching off the lights, locking the garage door, starting your car…

Totally. My cat cost nothing, BUT SHE IS IRREPLACLABLE

Much like cars, their value decreases dramatically once they've been purchased. Nobody wants a used puppy.*

Well, once he has a helpmate she will exert a calming influence with all of her estrogen and cooking.

I've never been so pro-book-burning in my entire life.

You have to read this batshit insane review from Amazon. One out of one people found it helpful!

I just love when people tell me what happened to me wasn't actually rape. I mean, if I was really raped rape it would have been much more violent with a stranger, right? If only I knew it wasn't rape in college I would have been able to sit through the class we shared without having panic attacks. Oh well, live and…

It's adorable that she thinks that "work can wait". I guess when you don't have to worry about making a life for yourself, you can ignore the blatant awful ageism that women are subjected to when job-hunting as professionals.

"It's dangerous to say to women that you can count on men to act responsibility."
