After one year of college teaching, I'm so sick of excuses. Just the sheer egocentrism of it pisses me off, since many of my students who give excuses seem to think that they're the only ones who have ever had "a lot of stuff going on right now."

As someone on the Gen X/Millennial border, my debt worries and terrifies me. If not for my student loan debt, it'd be much easier for me to scrape by on the crappy jobs that require a master's degree (which in my case=debt).

Almost everyone I know is either married or living with their parents.

And they probably won't even remember.

GOD DAMN IT, I DID NOT NEED TO KNOW THAT WAS POSSIBLE.

I used to be a separate checks chick until a male friend said that 1)he wants to be able to pay for his date and 2)a woman asking for separate checks is often seen as a sign that she's not interested.

It's a cheer/chant done by Braves fans:

Oh, is it your first time? I lay my eggs and leave the room, and then you fertilize them!

On one marvelous day, the internet told me that a former friend from high school writes mermaid erotica.

As a Virginia resident, every story of men/boys protesting a pants only dress code by wearing skirts makes me wonder why the man-skirt hasn't become a serious thing (yes, I know about kilts). Seriously, dudes, it is hot as hell out. Being able to wear the professional equivalent of shorts is awesome.

I'm turning 32 soon, and I've noticed a definite difference between guys who had earlier access to online porn and guys who grew up in the Sears catalog/30 minutes to download one picture era.

I honestly had a coworker complain to me about how much it costs to maintain her Mercedes. I drive a 13 year old Honda, and we both work as adjunct instructors.

Reading through the Tumblr, most of these guys seem pretty normal. I've got very little interest in random hookups these days, but I'd rather deal with a guy who is upfront and clear about what he's looking for than a guy who'll lie until he loses interest.

I just want to start this off by saying I'm against shunning and declaring people ritually unclean...BUT there are times when I feel like we should update the tent/hut. Separated from the oppression, I'm seeing no downside to being able to skip work and go into seclusion (I'm assuming there would be TV and internet…

Maybe it's ethnicity?

I always hated having to write thank you notes as a kid. And then friends and cousins started having babies. And some of them sent thank you notes and/or pictures of the baby with the gift, and some of them didn't acknowledge the presents at all.

I eventually got into it, but I'm now at a point where I never want to watch an episode of Friends ever again. You heard that, Friends? WE'RE ON A BREAK!!

Remember how you'd hold out your arm and another kid would hit you as hard as they could with your own slap bracelet? Man, kids are dumb!

They called it the binder of dreams...and it was.
