Between Go Set a Watchman and the Furiosa graphic novel, I’m going to pretend the original creators of the story are just diving into fan fiction.

I don’t see how anyone could read about Atticus Finch and not be jaded by the legal system already. Atticus loses his case, his client dies in jail, and systematic racism continues in his small town.

It definitely does—I know two people who got their house/condo that way. But I think the bids were much closer to asking price, vs. bids that come in waaaay over asking.

Those neighbors are human crap. I’m sorry you guys had to deal with that fuckery.

My husband and I are looking, and we submitted an offer to a place that went for thousands above asking price, with no mortgage and no home inspection required. No sappy letter in the world would have saved us.

That’s not a surprise to me at all. I know two friends who got a house based on letters to submitted to the owners. They were all “we love this house, we want to raise a family here, heartstrings!” And if you’re selling and the bids are close, I imagine a lot of people would want to see their home in the hands of…

YES. I have no idea how this woman wasn’t removed from office immediately. This is insane and illegal.

Total fucks can still make good art. But I don’t need that art in my life.

If I weren’t so anxious about having to face delivery people, I’d have been in the same boat when I was living on my own.

Girls aren’t even supposed to be able to read. Who let her in here?!

That shit is expensive, though! Even if you love friends/relatives and their kids, adding kids to the guest list can basically add another table or two. I know there are people who say “you cold-hearted bitch, maybe you can cut back elsewhere to include everyone” but it’s still expensive! Food and chairs and whatever…

I have a big extended family and my parents never brought my brother and me to weddings. They went out and had a fun night, and we got to stay home with a baby-sitter and have pizza. Everybody wins! And then when I was a little older, I made bank from parents going to weddings.

You are today’s winner of the internets!

Conversations should be two-sided. If you bring up a topic and all my responses are basically “uh huh” and “wow” it means I have zero interest in what you’re saying. At least when this happens in gchat, I can pretend I got busy all of the sudden.

YES to times you got high. (Or drunk, really.) 99% of the time, the story you think is so wild and hilarious is boring as fuck.

Frankly, if I’m at a party and someone will talk with me about cannibalism, I know I’ve found a friend.

So agreed. I don’t think it’s at all confusing or misleading to put the two adult names on the invitation. No idea why others seemed baffled by it.

I can totally understand her retiring after so many years of thoughtful work and dedication to children’s media and education, but man I’m sad to see her go. Thank you for helping to inspire, cheer, and educate generations of children, Sonia.

Only acceptable if your mom got a ton of peas in her CSA and gave a bunch to you and you have no idea what else to do with them.

I tend to think, “You’re never too young to try something you might love.” Like a couple years ago I took an adult beginner ballet class, because I never took dance when I was little and thought it would be fun. And it was totally low-key, and for people who wanted to try it and learn something knew but knew they were…
