I knew a (particularly dumb) guy in high school that would basically snort anything when challenged (not even for money!), so I have no doubt people would have willingly eaten these.

The most baffling thing I find about the “good boy who made mistakes” take is that it can somehow exist alongside the “if she’s telling the truth, why didn’t she go to the police?” takes.

I was of the JNCO generation. I used to wear these absolutely massive JNCO jeans with burgundy swirly panels down the sides. Add to that black platform sandals and a white tank top and a uh....black blazer for some reason with a lace skinny scarf that I would tie into a bow at the back of my neck.

In middle school, I had a rocking pair of jeans that got darker as you got closer to the foot with embroidered butterflies. I would pair this with a blue turtleneck that went from light blue to darker blue as you went upwards and down the arms. I looked like color saturation bar.

My son proudly told me once, “Mommy, you wear clothes other people think of as costumes!”

Excuse you I have always been a fashion ICON

my experience the spectacle public proposer is usually an asshole 

My friend’s ex proposed to her in a very public venue surrounded by hundreds of strangers and all of her family. It was purposefully coercive. Their relationship was not great, he was abusive and cheated on her, and she felt trapped in the relationship. Proposing in public was a way to pressure her into saying yes,…

He regrets that Courtney Smith spoke and Brett McMurphy reported it.

When I was online dating in my mid-30s (with, say, a 35-45 interest range) I would immediately ignore any guy who self-reported a similar age and desired women 18+ or 18-25. The difference between 35 and 45 is doable. 35/40/45 and 18? 20? 25? What do these people talk about on dates? I totally imagine this -- 

I still don’t know why some gamers are so hesitant to admit that this is an actual issue. I know quite a few. I am sure a majority of us know somebody with a form of digital addiction and gaming addiction is a subset of that. I had a former friend who feel into alcoholism due to gaming and its a path I’ve seen people…

English Lit and Law degrees here, and I’ve spent most of my career working as an engineer in the tech industry. I realize that my experience is highly unusual, though.

Hey, parallel parking certain cars is a whole lot harder than doing just about anything else with them.

Judy Hopps. She’s 24 for the bulk of the movie, they have modern technology, and based on the population sign, they’re not even teaching abstinence in Bunnyburrow high schools.

The pain from tattooing is highly subjective, so I can’t tell you what it would be like for you. Personally, I’d say that while not being enjoyable, it is definitely manageable. It also highly depends on the location. I got tattooed for 2 1/2 hours straight on my thighs and it was no problem, while with the half…

I currently have seven tattoos and counting, and the only one the world usually gets to see is the one on my forearm, if I wear something short-sleeved. If your personal tattoo is small enough, I recommend you get it on your hip. I have one there and unless I decide to pull down my panties a bit in order to…

Good article, but I have to nitpick about what’s depicted in the lead photo. Those big cylindrical things both on and off the circuit board are capacitors, not batteries.

I still believe!!!!

In this apartment, the bathtub is on the balcony.
