I think it’s weird as fuck, but her parents liked it, and it sounds like their mutual friends liked it? So ... most of the people she was closest with thought it was a nice gesture.
Maybe all of us cynical folks should just close our mouths and quietly step back?

And unless this 18 year old had instructions on what she wished for her funeral, burial, etc. then presumably someone - likely her parents and maybe this fiance - decided what outfit she’d be buried in, what music would be played, what flowers, what (if anything) would go in the casket with her (hell, whether she’d be…
I wanna know Frank’s backstory, because he’s the most interestingly disturbing member of this twisted team.
My little lady giving me the “go away human!” Eyes!
Scene- My bedroom, 2 AM, after a bottle and a half of wine.
Players (In a theatre sense, not like, a gross way to say ‘lovers’ or whatever)- My husband and also my me.
We were young, early 20’s, shitty on wine, having laugh sex, where we sort of clumsily bounced around the bedroom, laughing and not totally putting all…
I think it’s interesting that it’s a culture that requires a man’s sign-off for his wife to leave the country and yet she still has the power to—and feels safe enough to—go to the papers and complain about him. Like . . . that’s a legitimately fascinating dynamic.
THIS! I say do and date who or what you like. Even reject whole swaths of people because of race or whatever. But please don’t lose your shit if someone points out to you how your preferences were potentially shaped by a particular social and cultural context.
I’m pretty short and I’m not at all turned off by short guys - my last boyfriend was barely 5’5”. But you know what is really unattractive? Short guys who are furious about it and think that they were betrayed by the universe, that they ought to have had some much better life than whatever disappointment they’ve…
I like Matt McGorry. I do. I find him entertaining to watch and I do appreciate how apt he is to take a stand and stick with it on social media. But.... there’s this tiny tinge of ...... I don’t know. Like he seems legit on the outside but....
“Showed no signs of physical harm” my ass! Skin infection, lice infestation, and having to be fucking fed by a dog are all SIGNS OF HARM. Jesus Chile, get your shit together.
I have literally NEVER heard of any of this. Feminism isn’t like some gelatinous mass of vaginas that are all hiveminded and thing the same thing. Feminism isn’t the Borg, I’m sure there are some fringe elements that believe in some out there stuff.
what’s going to happen with our intergalactic possibilities
That’s funny, because I had a friend who was a cop for a while, and he told me that while in the academy they told the recruits to never, ever let someone catch them eating a donut in uniform.

Totally cracked me up. Finniest thing I’ve read this week.
Props to you! You defeat Darwinism everyday by proving you’re the smartest and fittest! I’m always excited to have a birthday, I call it: One Year Less Stupid. Just think of all the stuff you know now that you didn’t even know 5 years ago.
Mine too! We do bong hits and then choreograph short pieces to TV attorney jingles when we hang.
A gun simply will not protect you if you’re caught off-guard, which is generally the only situation in which having a gun at the ready might protect you. When Gabby Giffords was shot, the shooter was tackled by an unarmed man, while a man even closer who had a sidearm instinctively ducked... as anyone would.
Ahh but language is a constantly evolving and responsive thing! Much to the chagrin of grammar nerds everywhere. Where would we be if people told Shakespeare to stop making up words?
