When I was about 6ish/ 7 ( I am an old) I was allowed to take my birthday money and go to the college record store to buy a record. The college kids kind of steered me to a record with a picture of Queen Elizabeth on the cover instead of the Little Red Hen, and I liked the tiara so I unknowingly bought a Sex Pistols

“CONCIERGE CARE IS A SOLUTION OF THE RICH.”

Yeah that dance off absolutely happened. Idk if DVF and Cher have signed an NDA or what, but look at her face. That’s the face of someone who out-discoed Cher while Andy Warhol watched. 

You need to know the rules so that you understand what’s happening when you break them.  Grammar rules exist to aid comprehension and communication, but sometimes what you want another person to comprehend is best communicated by breaking the rules.

Freezing rain is always bad weather.

You’re talking about literature, though, for the most part. There is a distinction that should be made. Being able to bend the rules of grammar, knowing fully that you are bending them for effect, indicates mastery of language. I’ve always thought it a smart nod to a savvy reader.

The theme for my babies rooms was “Communism.”

It’s pretty great that Harry & Meghan will love that child- be it a prince or a queen!

It was so crowded I could barely get my coffee mug to my face, but there was this woman hauling an obviously miserable six year old child who started to make little retching sounds, and someone else yelled “WE NEED A BAG

I used to ride public transit so much that all the bad smells and inconveniences have sort of blended together at this point. I thought of myself as being pretty numb to the horribleness of it all. One day though, a man sat down next to me on a crowded bus in dirty, smelly clothes holding his backpack in front of him.

This didn’t happen to me, but to a friend who is a bus driver. My friend said the biggest part of his job is watching out for people to make sure they are safe. This was an evening shift in a rougher part of town, so he was on high alert. A young woman is sitting towards the front of the bus, when a sketchy looking
