I think I’ve posted this story before, but while I have a lot of odd dating stories that only now are hilarious in retrospect, this one was absolutely kinda head-scratchingly humorous at the time it happened (even if it also did moderately hurt): Had a guy break up with me in college because, as he told me, I made him…

Thank you for this. I’ve slowly been making this same journey myself, but I realized in reading this without too much conscious effort. I just recently started to not like the person I’ve become over time. I started to wonder if there was a happy medium between the now me to the overly empathetic and earnest person I…

I’d watch that video, perhaps....

Not at all mean-spirited, and the people involved and who responded recognized that. I appreciate this. The question begged to be asked, and the responses not only address the Question That Dare Not Be Raised, but also pretty much refutes it. Many kudos for the directly involved respondents who acknowledged the…

I once ordered a coaxial cable splitter from Amazon, and instead got shipped....flying bats!  Halloween decorations.  It was so hilarious that I couldn’t even begin to get mad.  

I found it curious how so many individuals interpreted that dinner scene with Porchey as Elizabeth implicitly talking about him, and not just a non-Queen life focused on All Things Horses (and, probably, Corgis). It was clear that the scene had the Porchey character reacting uncomfortably and surprised around that pote…

That orange asymmetrical dress in the photo is freaking me out a bit—it makes it appear at first glance her right leg was shrunken....

That jumped out at me too---I wonder if it is a purposeful homage?

This was during later college years, so later 80's. Went to a house party of a friend of the person I was dating. We went as Zombie Jackie O and Dead Kennedy (always fond of Halloween costume puns). As DJFK, I had fake blown out brains and blood on the side of my head, and wore a cheap consignment shop suit in which I…

Done.  

Appreciate the link to the details about that lithograph in the header, because I was curious. Also glad I didn’t see it until this morning, because the male figure would have given me nightmares. Not sure if it is better or worse that it actually represents a groom/husband, and not a physician as I originally…

Hailey looks nice, but I’m getting that infamous product ad pose of “Man looms somewhat threateningly over woman”. It’s more the way Jackass Beaver is positioned than anything else.

Anyone good at Photoshop?

I am friendly with someone who is friends with Carly for a number of decades. From what I am told and have seen, she comes across as a wonderful, intelligent person with a great sense of humor, but like me with a tendency to want to think only the best about those around us. This anecdote, true or not, doesn’t…

Wait....is it 2019, or 2016? Here we go...again.....lessons not learned. For all the actual problematic factors involved, anything that exposes the Orange Turd for what he truly is remains a positive in the longer run.  

Laughing laughing crying crying laughing laughing.....

Look up the Brazilian priest Adelir Antônio de Carli who died trying to set a cluster ballooning record using a chair and 1000 balloons. No disputes about the truth there, but an equally jaw-dropping story with a very sad ending.

I’m glad that I’m not the only person that saw that...my first thought was “Why did they have an inflatable cow in their car?”. 

The best scary stories, to me, are those tinged with a bit of sadness, like yours.

And here I thought they were just imitating a Pallas cat!

Debbie was always known for having a bit of an endearingly klutzy stage presence. Another thing to subvert that superficial sexy rock chick thing. She’s logically not pogo’ing these days, but that kinda odd swaying and spazzy arm movement thing was always part of the Blondie and solo performances.
