The creepy landlord one GOT ME. I’m pretty sure mine is harmless, but there’s a definite vibe that makes stories like that hit a little too close to home. 

Ohhhh, Family Forever is going to follow me around. The bride glowing in her casket...

You are significantly underselling Dr. Oz. Also the airtime she gave to Jenny McCarthy.

Yes, In Utero was that record that I felt like I should like more than I actually did. See also: Vitalogy — “Bugs”, etc.

I was not a huge Nirvana/Cobain fan at the time.

But the first time I overhead “All Apologies”, I stopped dead in my tracks in a public place to listen to the whole song, and teared up.

In Utero was considered to Nirvana what Load was considered to Metallica: a clear creative misstep, albeit one that wasn’t completely without worth in its own right.

Live Through This is so fucking great.

If memory of my 90’s adolescence serves, In Utero wasn’t considered some unimpeachable masterpiece, even by hardcore fans. It was considered to have a few good songs for your mixtape (lol), but Nevermind and Unplugged remained the CD to put on and leave on at a party. 

Accurate. I think I convinced myself in high school that In Utero was better than Nevermind because it felt too basic to think Nevermind was Nirvana’s best album. But...it is. From start to finish. And it’s not just because Nevermind is more accessible, it’s because...it’s not as good as it thinks it is??? In Utero…

I am okay on 7 hours but better on 8. Merely 4 or 5? I am a drooling idiot.

This feels like this documentary is going to be especially dark. I was creeped out and unnerved by the trailer. I dont think I could bring myself to watch this. It really feels like a horror movie come to life

I love how you just assume that men can pick women up simply because they’re shorter...? My husband is about 6 inches taller than me but I’m about 70 pounds heavier so no, he can’t pick me up. I don’t feel delicate or dainty. Yet somehow...someway...we do just fine...?

As a tall girl (5'11) I get unreasonably annoyed at this stuff. If you’re 5'2, everyone is taller than you- most guys can pick you up. Leave the giants to those of us who need them! I have never been girly or felt delicate because I’m always taller than the guys, even in flats.

Opening the windows to let in fresh air then burning incense sounds like the perfect morning routine for someone whose idea of overachieving is ticking off as many lifestyle memes as possible. Maybe just pick one or the other? A lot of these lives seem more like performance art than real substance. And probably have…

I didn’t read the xoJane site but my absolute first reaction to this post is that it’s a shame that the archive was deleted. Good, great, bad, sucky — the articles are an historical record and should be left alone for future readers to discover and decide for themselves if the content is worthwhile. Not only that,…

On the next episode of “When Incels Marry”...

I work in education and am a mom. I had a stay at home mom who very much so made her children her life. It was fucked up that she didn’t have anything else and has caused a lot of issues with my sister and myself as we became adults who **gasp** would want their own lives. I’ve seen what helicopter mothers do to their…

It’s interesting you mention the babies reaction to sisters, my baby is enthralled by my sister because she sounds like me and kinda looks like me. He stares at her with this freaked out amazed look like he’s trying to figure out why this woman is so much like Mommy but not Mommy.

Really? My girls are sizable and small babies will often start rooting around when I hold them if they are hungry.

A friend of mine has the same problem...his son figured out that the one he played with didn’t affect the TV at all, so he took apart a spare and disabled all the buttons he didn’t want the kid to press by accident (the ones that got into Settings or Menus or switched video inputs). His son got to change the channel…
