I SEE THEM SEE ME AND STILL THEY JUST SMIRK AND STAND THERE. The smirk says, “I am entitled to this piece of walkway.” AND I AM ENTITLED TO CALL YOU A PIECE OF SHIT.

For fun, my partner and I decided to go on Realtor.com to see what we could afford in our AREA. As in, under a 30-minute commute to work.

I don’t know the arcane mysteries of these discounts, but she did mention she only pulls that card at big chains.

This was satisfying.

See, I forgot about Sephora. I’m not sure I’d want to brave it, but if I did I’d go directly for the Clinique Moisture Surge and just coat my face in that pink, delicious goo.

Yeah my cousin says it’s a toss-up when there’s a military discount because we love a good bargain but it’s awkward as ass when she admits she’s a vet.

It’s actually really nice to hear someone relate a positive experience first-hand. I’ve known quite a few people who joined and they universally had a miserable time, unless it was the National Guard or Coast Guard.

My little cousin was in the military and, according to her, the gender problems are pretty pervasive. As in, they will do just about anything to demean their female colleagues. Feminism is out of the question—you have to be a “Cool Girl” to survive, and even then you’ll get thrown under the bus for laughs. It seems to

You can’t address the cultural problems in the military when an entire country indiscriminately hero-worships them just for signing up.

no one’s guarding the macaroons during the Purge and that’s what I like about it!

I can’t be the only one here who would just...snack. And steal more snacks.

I think the creepy feeling comes in when you meet someone who is hiding something essential about him/herself. Sometimes someone feels “off” because they have a secret hobby, sometimes because they’re hiding criminal activity. Unfortunately, it can be hard to tell the weird hobbyists apart from the violent people,

I’ve now had two boyfriends in a row who do the dishes and I fear that means I’m about to get hit by a truck like Meg Ryan in City of Angels.

She lives in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carpentersville,_Illinois in Kane County and trains at a rink 30 miles from the loop. She was raised by a single mother and nurse, so until her recent success, I’m guessing there weren’t a whole lot of funds for the ballet lessons and fancy choreographers that lend polished

There were so many better descriptions he could have used—awkward, inelegant, rough—which would have been harsh but fair. Instead, he went for a classist one by any standard, and a hurtful one in the context of her life, training, and presence on the skating scene. Fucking yikes, Johnny.
