On the contrary, I LOVE Third Eye Blind. The last tracks on their debut album are pure poetry.

The one union that the right isn’t looking to bust up at every given opportunity... Should tell us something right there...

I don’t know exactly what that was about. Someone else on here probably knows. He has already handed the cop something. Perhaps it was his DL or perhaps something else. There might have been something else he was reaching for. In a traffic stop there can be potentially several things you must show the cop (insurance,…

Anti-Blackness affects all kinds of people, whether they are named Jeronimo or not. Even Black police officers participate, since that’s a big part of how our police force was meant to work. Yes, it’s about race. This rarely happens to white people and happens to Black people often enough that we prep our children on…

I just have a hard time believing “Jeronimo” frigging “Yanez” is a racist white cop like ‘the rest of them’.

Police unions were forged in the infernal fires of hell’s own mill by Satan himself, apparently.

I grew up with very strict parents and therefore didn’t get out much and writing in a diary was really a way to beat the boredom, and also to express thoughts I couldn’t talk about with my very strict, emotionally unavailable parents. I got rid of all mine a long time ago, though. They were fairly depressing (my…

This is a weird question but I figure I might as well ask it.

the fact that you were in 6th grade in 2000 makes me want to crawl into the yawning grave and scoop dirt onto myself

God, I was always obsessed with music.

In middle school a girl (different from the one I mentioned in my other comment on this thread) drew a picture of me in a heroic pose. It took like literally a decade before I realized that she probably liked me. Because she was, in my view, one of the cool girls who’d never like a nerd like me, and so I just could.…

Is Diary even a good friend, though? You know the bitch is going to snitch whenever she gets the chance.

It’s Baby’s First Legal Document. Presaging my later career and love of words like “presaging.”

Curious to know, who were you apologizing to? What audience did you picture reading your teen diary? I never kept a diary (as I learned at a young age that you never leave a paper trail) so I’m not familiar with the genre conventions.

I encourage all teens out there to have as much sex with as many partners as possible. Because, once you start working full time, your job will suck out your soul, and any sex drive you may have will go with it. And, even if yours stays intact, odds are your partner’s job will crush their sex drive.

This is me, every spring. Reactine works great, except for that side effect. I switched to Allegra, and while it’s not quite as effective, my “problem” was immediately gone...can confirm about the spiral effect. It messes with you when you can’t ACHIEVE and MAINTAIN, as the doctor put it. Stay strong.

This x 1000! I was having terrible hay fever attacks where I would go into sneezing fits for 10 minutes at a time. I started taking Zyrtec for a month straight and it helped tremendously. However, the night of my wife’s birthday she wanted a bit of a “present,” and WTF? Things just wouldn’t work! This lead to a spiral…
