holy moses my dad was talking about this just a week ago. he was basically all but shaming my mom for having me via c-section and thus robbing me of those potent microbiomes that have left me an emotionally bereft glutten-eating heathen of schlubbiness.

I went to Penn with Donnie. He dated a friend of mine. He is probably an alcoholic. Or at least he used to have a drinking problem. He’d constantly pee in my friend’s bed like a puppy with a bladder infection. He also used to start fights and was in the meatiest of frapeternities. I felt sorry for him. He was all slop…

are you guys going to cover the stolen footage for this video? the director, melina matsoukas, has a history of stealing/copying...

Thank you. My girlfriend got Lyme and get parents gave her half doses of antibiotics because she is very petite. Many years later, she is suffering badly and tested positive for Lyme on one of the two unreliable tests that currently exist. Lyme is very misunderstood and this post isn't helping; your comment provided a…

I don’t for one minute believe that Yolanda isn’t actually physically ill. I base that on my 30 years of nursing and observing sick people. Idk what’s causing Yolanda’s illness, but she is sick.

Except that there is still a debate regarding chronic lyme and the long term effects. I was fortunate in that treatment for me was effective but shitty but there are a lot of people who claim to have lingering issues and I cannot say with certainty that they are wrong, or lying.

Your child’s name can scream “teen mom” or “mcmansion pinterest housewife mom” or “artsy hister mom” or “single mother” or any number of things.

Most of my doctor’s numbers I find written in sharpie on the walls of bathroom stalls in bars.

I think he doesn’t want it at the level that is common for his age. It's easy to make a virtue of indifference to sex.

Just a heads up to any women who might be in a similar situation - Do NOT ask them to delete the video/photo. Its evidence, and without it there is no legal ramification.

Truth hurts. I didn’t “dismiss” shit.

I am sorry to disagree with you all the time, I know you’re around my age and a good writer...but here I go.

You’re conflating porn with sex, which is exactly what not to do.

Completely agree with #2. It’s a time to sit down and use your words, not cop out with a face.

1. This is incredibly sad. As someone who has struggled with depression and suicidal thoughts for 2 decades, I understand more deeply than I want to admit what he felt and what he went through, despite being an otherwise loved, talented, and successful person. My thoughts and condolences are with his family and…

a) You probably don’t ride. Believe me, there are plenty of places that are unsafe for a car to pass where it’s no problem for a bike (either due to the bike being able to do the pass or simply because of things like better sightlines due to lane positioning etc). So it comes down to The Law vs. common sense, being…

Yep, that.

They’re just jokes.

You’re misreading what I said. I didn’t express that a preference for one particular race was wrong. My use of the word “alone” was about people who refuse to date people of particular race, like the example provided by The Gaysian elsewhere in this comment thread.
