Oh my god this is the most Metropolis story I've ever heard :,D

It wasn't the flushing so much as the suddenness of the (to me) loud noise. I also wept uncontrollably at the vacuum cleaner and sirens. I still cannot bear to watch people blow up balloons or rub them and make that squeaky sound because I'm sure they're going to pop any minute and send me into an…

oh i am so sorry you wentthrough that :/ some of my friends lived there for a while, and let's just say that my facebook feed was...eventful for that time period.

I also cried when they killed off Catherine Howard. Like, when she says "life is so very very beautiful" I was DONE. DONE DONE! I love historical dramas. If you're into boohooing over television, Netflix's Borgias is great. I just watched the last episode, and my boyfriend was like "what the hell is wrong with you..."

I watched that scene while my boyfriend was conveniently away on a trip with his parents, and I sat in my apartment alone, cried hysterically, and drank looooots of wine. I've never been so hysterical over television, but sweet Jesus...I also have the biggest girl crush on Natalie Dormer.

nah, don't let the Metropolis scare you off. It's a shitty shitty apartment in a shitty side of town, but there are other alternatives. I miss Austin.

Chica, that made me laugh so hard. I once had a meltdown after watching an episode of Dance Academy where one of the main characters died. Like so loud I scared the cat.

I was living in Austin the year The Metropolis opened. Good gravy I'm glad I didn't live there.

As do I! I read that and sort of went:

I loved living in Austin in general, this apartment complex was just burnout city. But that was 8-ish years ago. Douchebaggery has soared since then.

I used to get super-pissy when my parents wanted to do day road trips on Saturdays and/or Sundays. We'd just load up in our custom van (this was late 70s thru mid 80s) and just drive around to see what we could see. Looking back, we did and saw lots of really neat stuff and had fun and spent a ton of time together,…

you need to start seeing a therapist ASAP. It will help you sort it out without panic. You are gonna need some help with this one and that is OK- more than OK. I have 2 friends who were where you are now. They got through it- they did leave their husbands- but the world did not end. No one died. It just takes some…

Not me (emotionally repressed 4 lyfe) but my then-14-year old sister:

The time when Depo was the hot new thing on the market, and my gyno forgot to tell me that it isn't recommended for people who have depression before she stuck my ass with 1 years worth of estrogen (back in the day it was an annual affair).

I once witnessed a friend's child sob "YOU'RE RUINING MY LIFE... AND MY DAY!"

I don't know if this counts as a meltdown, but it involved crying. I was traveling through spain and to save money I stayed a couple of nights in a hostel, and I was in a dormitory with 6 other women.

I had a full blown fit over frozen yogurt recently.

Several years ago I was at an "art show" with friends (there was art there, but we were concentrating on listening to music and getting drunk) and a guy that I had been casually dating walked in. Now, we were not exclusive, and that was fine with me. I chatted with him and our other friends a bit, then he went off to…
