I’m not gonna lie, I thought the same thing. I have generally ungenerous thoughts about thirst posts though. They just seem desperate and pathetic-”Tell me how hot I am! Tell me how good I look!”

My mom put Mr. Yuck stickers on everything and I don't think until TWO YEARS AGO I found out that the shampoo, Lysol, etc. weren't being made with them put on at the time, but that my mother was buying stickers and doing this on purpose (to be take, my brother and I were kids who got into everything and once we tried…

They showed a shortened (but not sanitised) version of this in my primary school during a book week, and I remember a parade of crying children being led out throughout. Some of the teachers used to get us to lie on the floor and do what sounds like relaxation/hypnosis exercises with us ( “you feel like you’re sinking…

That film was the greatest and most terrible bait and switch of all fucking time. My husband spent YEARS talking me into reading the actual book (which is wonderful) because of this monstrosity.

I was an avid astronomy nerd as a kid. The first book of decent length that I read was a National Geographic tome called “Our Universe”. And it was in this book I learned of the horrible, terrifying truth that there are black holes out there, trapping everything within its grasp, including light, and then crushing it…

scarred for life when my mom let us rent watership down when i was about 4 y/o (looked like a cute kids movie based on cover art- it, dear reader, was not). i won’t say that i’m actually scared of cuddly bunnies.... but kind of?

That the world was going to end in 1985. My parents weren’t churchgoers, so I didn’t know much about religion aside from the God and Jesus part. Anyway, a neighbor friend was explaining the Rapture to me (this is around 1980 and I was 6 or 7 years old). I don’t remember why the year 1985 stuck out to me, but it did. A…

Starred for that last sentence. YUP!!!

You probably would’ve hated this Canadian kid’s show from the 80s called Today’s Special. It’s about a department store mannequin that comes to life at night. It also has a rather creepy looking puppet named Sam.

I share your fear - I once saw this VHS cover in the corner video place and was pretty much traumatized for life:

Robots and droids. In particular C-3PO, with all those weird exposed wires in his abdomen, filled little preschool me with existential horror. I distinctly remember watching his and R2-D2's cameo on Sesame Street and bursting into tears. I likely developed this fear because my parents let me watch (or didn’t pay…

My elementary school had this green box that was like a generator or something (someone can correct me) and it had this warning sign on it.

When I learned about gravity in kindergarten, I thought that the center of the earth was literally going to reach out and grab me and pull me in to my death. I was very afraid. 

No. The Pixie Cut - while adorable - is just as high-maintenance as The Rachel, because it requires getting a haircut every 10-14 days. Seriously, those haircuts look cute for about 5 days and then they grow out too much. 

A true Rachel is high-maintenance af. You gotta blow dry that shit with a round brush to get the appropriate kind of volume and bounce from the layers that make it a Rachel. You can get adept at a round brush blow dry, but it takes practice, and even with skill that takes a lot longer to do than just about any other…

This is the most “white people shit” ever. A couple generations ago, a single drop of Native blood would get you thrown out of the family. Now she wants to “claim” it so she can wear it like a scarf.

Harry Potter is derivative drivel so I think we started out that way

She looks very Aurora (Sleeping Beauty), which I dig.

Exactly. I was jokingly thinking, “A man must have written that suggestion,” and I wasn’t wrong. 

Ooof. Those pics of Cara in a Tux were what every queer lady woke up to this morning! Wildfire!
