Prom on my junior year seemed to be the last year guys had to get a tux shirt that matched their date’s dress. I wore a dove gray tux with a lavender “ruffle” tux shirt. Oh yeah, Boss. Senior year everyone was in black and white. It was on the Queen Mary, which was pretty cool.

I’m so glad that I went to high school before this was a thing. I’m also glad that I went to prom with a group of friends instead of a date. It seemed like everyone who had a date fought over something.

I’m old. This whole dance “proposal” thing did not exist back when our war was still Cold. It's weird.

I didn’t go to my prom. That was 20 years ago and I’ve never regretted it.

Every day I wake up and I’m infinitely glad I’m only going to my soul-killing, mindless cubefarm job and not heading to high school. I can’t imagine trying to survive that shit now, what with social media and shit like this.

Instead of going to prom, me and my nerd friends sat around and played games at home.

Dude. Don’t promote the trolls. Even if you’re gray and you responding doesn’t promote the comment, people starring your comment will. Thus giving assholes like this misogynistic motherfucker drastically more views than they would have had otherwise.

YEP! Every.Single.Time. an article like this comes up, there are a handful of people that staunchly defend their not understanding the definition of a gift. Although a gift MAY be customary in situations, a gift, by definition, is never obligatory.

That skirt is actually lovely, though, and the cut isn’t solely to make people think they’ll be able to see your vulva if you move the right way.

Yeah, I’m not really getting where the “she looks good” comments are coming from. I mean, she definitely looks better in it than I would, but there is no way that it could ever be called a good look for her.

Holy god, that is an UGLY garment. Like, it’s insanely unflattering and cheap-looking, and it’s incredibly slutty, but also totally grandma at the same time, somehow.

I get the joke. It’s not funny, but I get it.

Yep. I don’t understand how people don’t get this.

No. No no no you are wrong.

They most certainly spent money to be there (transportation, clothes, who knows what else). They may have already put themselves into debt to attend. I’m almost 100% sure that these people are having financial troubles that you are not aware of, but they cared enough about you to show up.

Stop sending ambiguous signals like being nice. It’s cruel to lead men on. But also don’t be mean, because then you’re a bitch and deserve what you get. Note that “being mean” includes remaining emotionally neutral, you frigid slut.

This wedding shit is getting out of hand. The universe does not revolve around 1) you or 2) your wedding budget or 3) your gift registry. It’s a party you chose to throw, people are not legally bound to show up (even when they said they would). Weddings are becoming the outlet of choice for asshole behavior nowadays.

It’s always a good sign when a couple starts off their marriage with an act of complete and total self-centered assholery.

He was encouraged by her “ambiguous signals.” It’s called “not wanting to make her advisor an enemy.” It’s called “not antagonizing the person who is the gatekeeper to her career.” Fuck. This is why the codes against fraternizing should be extended to grad school.

haha that reminds me of this lil gem of a video:
