Okay, so here is mine.

I have a story!

I live in a very old area of town. Almost every other house on my street is a "century home" with a little plaque saying it was built in 1905 or sometime thereabouts. Mine doesn't just because it costs money to get that title.

I pride myself on my car trip taking patience. I never rush, I take frequent breaks, and I try to generally enjoy the car trip as much as is possible. Sometimes this leads to overnight stays in random hotels in Connecticut.

Context: I am recounting an experience that I had about 8 years ago when I was a sophomore in college in West Chester, PA. I am recounting it to the best of my ability but some details might have been lost due to the time passing and the fact that I try not to think about this all that often.

My grandparents live in New Jersey (ooooh, sppppoooky). When I was a kid, we used to visit them and drive back late at night when it was so dark you couldn't see anything outside of the headlights. I used to sleep in the backseat, or try to.

My mother comes from the Isle of Man, which is about halfway between England and Ireland. There's a place called the Fairy Bridge and it's considered wise to greet the fairies when you're passing it, or they might get angry with you and you don't want that. When Mum was about 10, she had a girl friend from England who

Ahhhh!! I've been waiting all year for this feature. I don't really have any ghost experiences, but I have had bizarre dreams involving dead people from my life. I had a lot of dreams involving my grandmother after she died, but the most recent one happened about a month ago. I dreamed that I was meeting my entire

If they don't I am walking out. I wait all damn year for this shit...

Oh, dear god. I, thankfully, finished the drink he'd bought me and got the fuck out of there once he came clean.

Ok. I give up. I love Taylor Swift. I think she has a hilarious, dry sense of humor and is not in the slightest bit afraid of making fun of herself. I like her music, I like her attitude and I want to be her friend.

One of the things I like about that song is it's in Taylor's high, relentlessly chirpy voice. Also, it's the perfect beat for power-walking with the pooch.

1. Didn't even make it to the first chorus on this vid. Yikes. Know your range. 2. Why aren't you giving Taylor Swift any credit for writing this song, instead opting to give all of the credit to Max Martin and Shellback? She's not Beyonce. If her name is on a song, she wrote it.

Stop acting like 'Shake It Off' isn't great

Hm, no backing from this part of "we." Cersei always viewed herself as unjustly persecuted, and bearing this punishment "bravely" fit in with her warped self-narrative. The public humiliation - which she brought on herself with a crappily executed plan (which still might succeed) to bring down a much less unpleasant

Admittedly, I don't know how popular the royals are in the US but here, people tend to fall into either open exasperation and quiet support. I'm sure people who really really care do exist but there hasn't been the same breathless excitement since Diana. People tend to get pretty involved when there's a day off on the

Kemet does not mean "Land of the Blacks," it means "Black Land" in reference to the Nile silt. I won't get into a debate over the racial makeup of the ancient Egyptians because it doesn't matter, but "Land of the Blacks" would be a totally different grammatical construction.

Egypt was originally called Kemet during the beginning of the Old Kingdom which meant "Land of the Blacks" or "Black Land" in Greek

yeah, like those "skulls with brown hair" in the article

No it's also a political statement about the instability of the dollar
