My dude, spending 2-3 weeks on an island does not make you an authority on an island’s culture. Take a seat, my god.

A couple of years ago, I quit all social media, changed jobs and dropped out of a particular friend group. Lost maybe 80% of my friends. Before that, I had struggled with depression since childhood, but after the initial shock, the depression just lifted and hasn’t come back. 30 years of depression, cured by stopping…

I guess Disney never made a movie about The Prodigal Son, so the idea that parents are more willing to forgive transgressive behavior if you ghost them for awhile is not as familiar as I assumed.

The transition from high school to college is HARD, and can be doubly so when you’re used to everyone expecting you to excel. I’ve also heard that Columbia has this alienating vibe even more than other peer institutions, which makes things worse.

Yah I ran away from home at age 16. Like, for 2 hours one night after a giant fight with my parents who wouldn’t let me travel abroad alone.

I have no insight into conditions at Columbia, but I got a very strong vibe of “engineering was a very bad idea” from her statements. Between the artistic pursuits and the desire to make connections, girl shoulda gone humanities. She probably chose that track because she’s good at math/science and everybody sells…

Yes! I believe it was a bartender who roofied my friend’s drink.

The books only list five or six boys in the Gryffindor dormitory in Harry’s year, and every other dormitory is similarly filled out. There don’t even appear to be unnamed members of Harry’s year, suggesting that there really are only around thirty or forty pupils in the entire year.

I wear dresses, leggings, and flats because they are easier to put on. A couple of months ago my coworker asked if I constantly wore dresses as a “religious thing” which I found odd because the dresses I wear aren’t very conservative. Her eyebrows reached a new level when I explained that I do it because it is…

Isn’t kinda disrespectful for a judge to address lawyers by their first names rather than Counselor? This is clearly not a friendly working relationship, so seems like a breach of ettiquette on his part. True, or nah?

Gen X parent with millennial 23 year old still living at home, if only because he JUST started working, the job isn’t permanent, although it will lead to a permanent job, and he realizes that starting out in the world with an assload of debt is maybe not the smartest thing to do.

Now that she mentions being Bond... I could totally see Idris striding out of the ocean in a speedo...

Fallin, an anti-abortion Republican, vetoed the bill today because she didn’t believe it could withstand an (inevitable) legal challenge,

Crows are awful, they’re basically black seagulls that don’t live near water.

I’m fine with Bernie staying in the race to accumulate votes and show Democrats that there is broad, national support for a progressive agenda. I am not alright with him staying in the race in a desperate bid to win.

can you imagine a world in which all of us decided to seek vengeance against our assailants full-time, movie style? especially considering many people have been assaulted more than once? we’d all be running around, not getting anything else done, amassing weapons or recruiting plucky best friends or whateverthefuck.…

I only use “I feel like” when I’m about to talk shit or I actually have no evidence to back what I’m saying and what I’m saying is actually just a guess/feeling. Example: I feel like this bar will just be more fun than that bar tonight.

Emmitt is very lame. So is Tomsula. Basically, the entire lower 3/4s of the Jamboroo is skippable for me. The best guest star was, and always will be Rolf, the Nazi Shark.

That seemed more like an argument against having a draft at all than against having women included.

Sam Bradford is 28 years old. If he does things right, he can get another solid 10 years out of his career as an “Itinerant Veteran QB Mentor.” Mentor Wentz for a season or two, then move to the next sad-sack franchise that has drafted a hotshot rookie that they want to learn from a seasoned pro. Market yourself that…
