There’s a lot of bullshit we all love to tell ourselves and each other to pretend that physical appearance doesn’t matter and we’re above caring about such superficial things.

LOLed heartily at your last sentence.

Dragging her Spanx-clad ass back to whatever shithole country she came from. (That’s a dig at her and her shitty husband. I can’t for the life of me remember where she’s from but I’m sure it’s lovely and they don’t want her back.)

Hey, the one good thing about the Trump presidency was that it freed us from pretending we aren’t elitists. 

I grew up middle class but in a rural area. I can’t claim to identify with the rural poor but I see the one-note, caricatured manner in which entertainment likes to portray rural dwellers.

It did not.

I previously had no opinion of her but “Let me begin by saying I do my best to be sensitive to the feelings and experiences of others not out of some scrambling PC fear, but because not hurting others seems like a basic level of decency we should all be striving for,” gave me a positive one.

That may have been for his protection rather than punishment. :)

Finnish fun fact: the 1981 Ms. Olympia went on to serve in Parliament.

My stepmother went off on a tear sometime in the early 90s because the guy in the Bud Light commercials was “teaching you that it’s cool to lie!!!” If I had a time machine, I’d go back to that moment to ask her if she really believed I was so stupid. 

Yes, I’d always rather have bacon cheeseburgers and chocolate pie. But since I want to both live past 50 and not be sick, I eat my veggies and there are a number that are enjoyable.

Looking at this way at least makes sense. Because “I don’t believe that there is a beauty standard. I struggled with feeling ugly and like an outcast for so much of my life,” makes no rational sense. There is no beauty standard but it hurt when I didn’t believe I met it? Huh?

My parents survived into my adulthood but my uncle and aunt were the designated guardians had I needed one. I sometimes wonder how different my life would be had that happened because my cousin and I are practically polar opposites in our current lifestyles.

I love doing Physique 57 but in two videos I’ve done (out of many) the instructor said something along the lines of “earn your dinner.” 1) Fuck off and 2) that’s particularly stupid given that Physique 57 isn’t a huge calorie burner. I burn maybe 300 calories in an hour - that’s a hearty snack at best.

I had a high interest card I got when I was rebuilding my credit. Successfully did so, didn’t need the high interest, low-limit card anymore and thoughtlessly canceled it. This almost immediately lowered my credit score and I wish I had just cut it up.

Hahaha. Most dads will just tell you why you shouldn’t buy a RWD car when you live in a cold climate. MY dad waited for me to come home for Christmas break, then inexplicably insisted I take Grandpa’s new Chevy Blazer to town to run errands for him. When I returned he asked how the Blazer handled. “Well Dad, I nearly…

We had a snow removal service. The kid a block over is saving up for a car and he not only shows up earlier, he does a better job of it. 

I know, right? I didn’t think about it at the time because when you’re a kid you don’t necessarily realize the weird thing your family does is weird. But looking back as an adult...WTF? Cheap mofos LOL.

I was paid for both. $5 for a A, $3 for a B, nothing for a C, I owed them $2 for every D and $5 for every F. (I never ended up owing but... .)

Also, it’s not the social media that’s freaking me out.
