My best friend and I comment on how sad we are for people who claim their significant other is their ‘best friend’. We’ve both been in serious relationships at points during our friendship. And well, neither of us are now, so there’s that. Point is, while we hope sometimes when we’re with a beau that it’ll last, we…

I can see where you’re coming from, but most adults do not have ride-or-die, all-important friendships. Friends are largely a matter of convenience and proximity. If you find one you can open up to about deeper issues in your life, that’s terrific, but it’s not standard.

I’m honestly just happy that our culture has finally started to acknowledge that women can be friends without being competitive, just talking about men, etc. I went to a women’s college, and the number of times I was asked “Ugh, doesn’t it get so catty and bitchy there with all those girls?” still makes me mad. Like…

I’ve always fantasized about sharing a house with my 3 best friends when we’re old, Golden Girls style (I’ve been designated the Sophia). My husband rightly remarked “so in your fantasy retirement scenario I’m dead?”

For me, personally, the push-back and performative aspect comes from seeing so many social media posts from women gushing about their significant others being their ~best friends~ like a relationship trump card. I’m happily married and have an amazing friendship with my spouse, but I also have two women that I call my…

So i was looking for some appropriate Legolas quote gif for this whole OrlSelPer drama. I failed in that reguard. However, I found something even better, Stephen Colbert as Legolas. I knew you good folks would approve.

I don’t remember why we decided the Simpsons weren’t cool any more but it was one of this country’s major mistakes.

Paris Hilton is a modern day-Marilyn Monroe

But any reason to use this Gif is the beeeeest!

For some reason, I’m in the grays again, but I must post this. Perhaps it will get me un-grayed? OH DAYUMMMM.

to be fair, he’s the worst too

Does that mean Jean-Ralphio gets piggy back rides?

You ain’t kidding. These women’s cases are exceptionally rare by Canadian standards in that they resulted in charges laid.

I think the real tragedy here is that we will be subjected to another 72 episodes of ‘Big Bang Theory’.

I’m glad you’re mostly immune to it and I’m sure your father appreciates your help beyond measure. Hopefully your positive attitude will rub off on your family. A little heard immunity as it were :)

You are awesome!!! I still let lots of people upset me but your response is phenomenal and I’m adding it to my personal armor.

‘Maybe your mum didn’t ask to be pregnant but she though ‘Hey, what the fuck, let’s have this kid and see how things go’. And then she tried to figure it out as she went, which is basically what most parents do. She fucked up here and there but she also carried on with being a parent - and doing it as best she could.’

I’m so sorry, Jinni, for you, yet very happy that you have learned to put your needs before others’ wants. Celebrate the life you have built, and enjoy living it.
