I was the WOOOORST in junior high. I was the Gretchen Weiners to a Regina George, and she was brutal in the persecution of several of our classmates. When questioned by our (very small) school's principal, we would always be like, "who, us? They started it." By the end I'd dropped out of the bullying game and gone…

and SOOO self centered. and some can be very arrogant, like, "i'm a doctor! i know EVERYTHING. oh, i know you went to law school, but that was like, what, SEVEN years of school, tops—nothing on my FOURTEEN. and you, the greasy one—step aside, i can fix this car, what is that a flux capacitor? MOVE, you plebe! don't…

My mother works at a free standing clinic that is a part of a County Health Systems in the East Bay Area. They provide free of cost health care to many a woman, including abortions and birth control. I asked her, out of curiosity, since we discuss the topic here so frequently, how many of the women she interprets for…

hahaha Phyllis Diller was our nickname for our yorkie bc her hair was so crazy and she had so much moxie.

As an epileptic and a member of the Epilepsy Foundation's Nor Cal chapter, I've done a lot of reading on different kinds of seizures. While it's possible she has a medical condition of some sort, her level of responsiveness too get daughters call doesn't seem consistent with any kind of seizure I've seen, including…

Dude at best buy on Black Friday they GIVE those away for a hundo, sometimes less, just to get people there. But sure, one investment in a tv that should last 8-10 years should bar all potential charitable contributions? That's logical. #sarcasm

I will rep Tig Notaro all over town! She is amaze!

All of these threads are making me realize how much I suck at being a girl. :'( I'm like "Do I smell? Am I visibly filthy? No? Ok, go."
I'm going to YouTube the shit out of some hair tutorial videos.

True dat. I know the attorneys at my firm have a consultant group that manages their twitter account, so I doubt Martha would be doing the AMA 100% alone. BTW thanks for posting that pic. It is my whole life.

Amen to that. This is the first thought that I had when I was reading this. Also, I follow her on twitter, and there was no mention of her Reddit AMA on there.... not that she'd be out there actively promoting it lol

she's an awesome mom!

my mom had it done last year and i took care of her while she healed. she is also legally blind, without glasses or contacts w/ glasses on (says so on her license). she took 4-5 days to recover fully, and the first day her eyes were very swollen and hurt a lot, but they gave her drops for the pain, some pills, and…

Beef tongue— I don't know how you guys are eating it, but some tacos de lengua done right, like from a legit taqueria, can be the BOMB (but if there's "tacos de ojo" say no—it's eyeball tacos). And who the hell turns their nose up at ALL falafel? Sure, there are some places that do it horribly, but dismissing all…

i'm 27 and like a kindergartener, only have my mother's phone number memorized anymore. (well, that and my office number, but that is sort of a professional default.)

well DUH. there's reason to be paranoid in these end times, especially when meeting Ok Cupid people. and i always told Erik, my roommate, "if i am going to have a one night stand, i will text you and let you know specifically! otherwise, if i am not back in a few hours, assume that i have gone missing, that this guy…

Yay legal jezzies!

I was given a Jell-o cookbook as a wee lass one day, with fun recipes for Jell-o products. Some were for fruity molds, some for fun baked treats, and some for monstrosities in blatant defiance of the will of God.

I'm always concerned with "tokenism"... Have been told on dates w/ white boys that I was their "first Latina" and I'm like, this isn't a landmark per se unless you're checking off countries on a map somewhere. Inverse is, hella Mexican boys reaching that marrying age & trying to wife me. Should I just put up a want ad…

i was overwhelmed by the number and type of messages i was getting. it was like nobody was reading what i wrote, or they were the most reductive bullshit like, "Oh haha i saw the Goonies once and it was great, so listen ur rly hot we should go out sometime." it was like everyone was trying to get a Fast Pass to a…

i'm lol-ing at the fact that the girl thinks that dudes are actually reading her profile! LIKE THEY CARE THAT YOU LIKE ASTRONOMY. i've had dudes contact me with like, a 20% compatibility and be like, "yo i think we'd make a good match..." O RLY BRAH?! what about us would match, my boobs and your eyes?
