I almost threw something last night. The Netherlands girl finished her beam routine and started working in a notebook and the commenter was like, writing in her diary. And Nastia immediately corrected him, “she’s calculating her starting value to make sure she gets the full credit.” And then later they showed her with…

As People reports, an enduring myth that period blood contaminates water leads to warnings against women swimming while menstruating. In fact, some Chinese viewers argued that Fu must have lied about having her period. Swimming with it, they reasoned, would have been impossible. But these reactions only manifest old,…

Only one. I dated this nerd to make him look cool because I really needed the money to replace the white suede outfit I had borrowed without my mom’s permission.

so do i...TOO BAD A GOAT ATE IT

off-topic but regarding goats:

Because she got third and because of the two per country was out. Sometines its hard to have a mask on. Im not going to get mad at her for not smiling all the time.

Our dumb, beautiful swimming man baby. Bless his heart.

Thank goodness he's ok - it would have been really ugly if he dyed.

I always score 50/50 on personality tests. I guess it’s called an Omni-vert. I think it confuses people because I’m always excited to hang out with my friends but I also love just being at home. I’ve noticed that I don’t get invited to stuff as often and I suspect some of my friends think it’s because my husband is…

I’ve been married forever, but I have trouble making friends for the same reasons you say. People don’t perceive me as shy or reserved. But I really am. I’m hugely afraid to put myself out there and then have them not like me. But they apparently think I’m being stuck up.

I feel like I’m exactly half and half. I get so depressed if I spend too much time alone, and I get so frazzled if I spend too much time with too many people.

This. I tried to explain to a good friend once that I’m actually pretty painfully shy sometimes and she straight laughed at me and told me I didn’t know why shy meant. Apparently she missed the part where I’ll drop off the radar for several days if I’ve spent too much time around other people. (Or when I had to lock…

I love it when I learn that individuals who are funny/loud/outgoing, like Amy Schumer, are actually introverts. I am like this. When I am “on,” I can be the total life of the party and genuinely enjoy it, but I’m going to need like 3 days alone in the woods (just kidding, bugs are gross; please drop me off at the…

I get tired of being around people and I need time to myself. It gets draining to have to be a person with other people.

I'm due in January and I swear to you I just wrote Simone on my handwritten baby name list maybe 10 minutes ago.

I was raised in a pretty sexist household where the boys got preferential treatment. I grew up with parents who constantly told sister and me to brag about our brothers’ accomplishments to impress people but never the converse. In college, I pointed this out to my mom and she innocently and honestly said this was how…

Oh, you can tell that she takes good care of her gums.

I appreciate Simone Biles for her lack of faux modesty. I overheard someone say they didn’t like her because she was too cocky.

You Muenster!

I steal slices of my husband’s cheese that he reserves for his lunches, and then replace the slices I took with large Post-It notes hoping he won’t notice.
