My parents live in fear of that exact scenario. We live in a town where going less than 5 miles over the speed limit will get you pulled over and ticketed that is how little the police have to deal with on a daily basis. They have even less to respond to now that the two country and western bars in town closed several…

Gun safety 101 in a nutshell. It’s also the thing that makes the gun nuts’ #1 “reason” for owning firearms absolute bullshit. If you are being 100% responsible about weapons handling then a gun is the worst for home defense. It’s not like the person committing the home invasion is going to just stand around waiting…

Different growing regions mean different plant based foods dominate the food culture.

Now there’s an idea. Thank you!

I only ever did first dates at coffee shops or restaurants where I knew everyone who worked there so I knew they would help me get out the back if I needed to.

I’m confused by your question.

I have done that. There was one pizza place that would sub pesto sauce for marinara and leave off the cheese. It was awesome.

I tried that Daiya crap on a pizza once because the guy at the counter told me it melted like real cheese. Well it does melt like real cheese, but it definitely tastes like ass.

Oh my God that is actually a genre? Maybe all of the cold meds I’ve been on for the last two weeks are really screwing with my brain, but that is the funniest thing I have ever encountered in my life.

That story was fucking tragic, and yes dude needs to nope the fuck out of there. I truly hope he finally did and at least learned what to watch out for in future relationships. I love all of the assholes over there acting like emotional manipulation and abuse aren’t really abuse at all. Yes, they fucking are and are…

Or at least barred from having pets.

I’ve had some odd relationships, but your past relationship takes the cake. I dated one guy off and on for about 3 years who was one of the biggest momma’s boys ever. In fact the reason we only dated exclusively for a full six months was because of his mother’s interference in the relationship. The only reason I…

So true. That is what bothers me about people who anthropomorphize their pets because that all too often leads to forgetting that they are animals and thus unpredictable. I used to live next door to a vet tech who would regale me with horror stories from her job of people who thought their dogs and cats were just…

When I was 12 I had a feral cat climb up my leg once because I simply didn’t see it when I walked past. My dad actually had to beat the fucking thing in the head for a full 3 minutes before it let go of me. I don’t mess around with strays because of that, and I for damn sure won’t have anything to do with a chimp.…

Also known as the crack house of shoes.

They’re in the weasel family so yeah leave them alone.

I had a friend in college who ended up needing almost 30 stitches because a feral cat attacked her.

When I was 14 I told my dad and my uncle that would not get married before i was 30. They both laughed and told me that I would change my mind, and my uncle even bet me $50 that I would be married before that age. We upped the bet to $100 a year later. On my 30th birthday my uncle brought me $100. He told me that I…

I dated a Palestinian guy for a few months in college, and actually had a couple of older women ask me if he mistreated me. It was so insulting, especially because the only abusive relationship I was ever in was with a 100% white guy. As for the Palestinian guy, he was the sweetest guy I have ever met. After we broke…

Where did you find those? I need a pair of those like now.
