I had a nostalgic moment the last time I was home and read some of my old diaries. Less than 50 pages in, I promptly burned them all. Mid-20s me found teenage me to be insufferable.

Having recently re-read my diary...

never forgetting that a girdle can be a girl’s best friend.

"And have I not told you that what you mistake for madness is but over-acuteness of the sense? —now, I say, there came to my ears a low, dull, quick sound, such as a digital watch makes when enveloped in cotton. I knew that sound well, too. It was the beeping of the old woman's whore pill reminder. It increased my…

Next year, your friend will be posting on the scary story Halloween thread with the Tale of the Beeping Painting.

It was a suburb of Cincinnati.

Same here, except I went to an all-boys catholic school and instead of the pregnancy video, they brought out the folio-sized picture book of STDs.

My 2002 Missouri experience was very similar, except we were told explicity that condoms don't work (for contraception OR STDs) and also that if a girl French kisses a guy he has a very hard time stopping at that point- basically, if you use tounge and get raped, it's your fault. They also made us all sign virginity…

Hey, want to hear something interesting relating to this article and the one about the Saudi driving protest? Sure you do!

This is just funny. When I was a teenager I worked at Arby's, and one of the kid's meal toys was glow in the dark white chalk. I took it into my brothers room and drew big scary eyes with it on the ceiling above his bed. They were totally invisible in the light. He never said anything about it, so I assumed it didn't…

Very frightening indeed.

Ahhahaha, what? Also, I am allergic to copper. Am I a ghost? Please advise.

Lucid dreams are SO MUCH FUN!!

I tried to get birth control in Texas. The end.

This is more a now cherished memory and funny, but at the time it was pretty creepy. My dad, who passed away last spring, liked to pull pranks from time to time. Back when I was 16 years old (this was in 1987) we lived in New Orleans. New Orleans, as you all know, tends to be a bit of a creepy town. We lived in an…

I was hunting once in an area on the coast of Texas when I found myself in a field when I had a sudden feeling of something watching me. I took a knee, and tried to a get a feel for my surroundings when I noticed a pair of eyes glowing in the dark about 200 yards to my left. Not really knowing what it was I decided I…

This one's my favourite so far: The Haunted Vibrator.

Scary story time:
