I used to write him & his sister off as obnoxious & horribly over-indulged, and while they are certainly that, I'm sort of enjoying how comfortable he is not conforming to seemingly anything.

He clearly wears that outfit better than pretty much anyone else could.

Honestly, I don’t really see how having a trial marriage is that different from living together for a year or two before marriage. Except perhaps combining your finances, living together will give you the same day-to-day experience as being married. And hopefully you’ll have thoroughly discussed finances and any other…

Speaking as a Canadian (where Thanksgiving is in early October), I’d still like Christmas stuff to wait until after November 11, which is Remembrance Day for us. It seems like a tiny thing to ask that we wait to get festive until we’ve done the somber tribute.

My roommate gave me “Why Men Love Bitches,” the female version of this. It was basically “treat him like shit and never fuck him” and just made a bunch of hunting analogies like “men love to hunt, so don’t just drop your carcass at his doorstep.” Suddenly, I understood why she was such an entitled princess who would…

In my mid-twenties I started hanging out with this guy I had had a crush on all through highschool, and he was reading The Game. He swallowed the whole fucking thing, and even tried to sell me on the ideas in it. What a goddamned shame. This guy regressed in emotional maturity and became a selfish prick. If he’d…

I read The Game a few years ago. One of my Dude Roommates had it, and was like “read this shit, it will definitely piss you off and also I know you and your sister are obsessed with the VH1 show The Pickup Artist.”

I’m not usually allowed to go to Michael’s without adult supervision (I have a yarn problem), but I might just sneak in and see what’s what.

I try to clean, but goddamn you have no idea how tiring it gets hauling around this penis all day.

Unless I missed it by reading too quickly (always possible with my brain in knots these days), what is missing from this story is the fact that The Light Princess was originally published in 1890 as one of a collection of stories by Scottish author George MacDonald, who also wrote The Princess and the Goblins, The…

I will star any and all Terry Pratchett-related comments.

The Reuben one reminded me of a story Terry Pratchett told. He said that one jet-lagged evening he accidently asked for Three Mile Island dressing for his salad. The waitress didn’t say a word, just brought him Thousand Island dressing and a bottle of hot sauce.

Just want to jump in and say: there are a metric shit ton of weirdos and losers and socially inadequate freaks who don’t know how to get along with anyone who went to public school but NO ONE, LITERALLY NO ONE says “oh my god, public school kids, they’re all misfits”. I’ve known a number of well-adjusted, gracious,…

Suspension is totally an appropriate punishment for your parent forgetting to push start on the washing machine. At least I assume that's the sort of thing that happened. This would be a consistent problem for my idiot self. Homeschooling wins again.
