This just happened to me yesterday.

I guy I had been friends with in junior high started facebook harassing me a few years ago, more than 15 years since I'd last spoken to him. He'd gotten arrested for drug possession with intent to traffic (I believe) sometime in our early twenties. The only contact I'd had with him was when I was about 22, he sent a

This happened a good six months ago. Just a couple weeks ago, I commented on something in /r/aww and someone responded with, "Aren't you like, 500 pounds or something?" I'm not sure if it's the same user but with a different user name or what, but to remember the title of a post I made months previously just to make

When I was 18, I was active on a message board that holds itself to be one of the "smarter" places on the internet— above the fray, if you will. Less tolerance for trolls and absurdity than a lot of other places on the web. Now, this board also had several spin off boards for people to anonymously snark on the

So not only do we get to pay full price, we can't even do so with the benefit of our

As a Notre Dame alum, I can speak to this first hand. It's not only a battle over insurance coverage, but the care given on campus. I have a history of terrible cycles and had been on birth control to regulate it since I was 14. While attending college, I had issues with my birth control and needed to change to

"This is about Vogue, and what Vogue decides to do with a specific woman who has very publicly stated that she's fine just the way she is, and the world needs to get on board with that. Just how resistant is Vogue to that idea?"

The depressing thing is, there's someone making nearly this exact same comment quite seriously in the grays.

I'd love to study abroad in Nigeria, home of the great Nelson Mandela.

This woman is such a hussy!

Enter for a chance to meet Idris Elba.

No, no, no. Women laugh alone with salad. Smiling is for yogurt and tampons.

This ad is wrong on two counts: that the girl is white, and that she is smiling near a picture of pizza.

"Study abroad in beautiful Norway this semester!"
