My dad did this too- it made me really sad. He’d see his dead brother and say things like- “Rodney’s here, but he’s so handsome and young now.” I really hope there is life on the other side, just because people seem so comforted by it at the end.

My dad’s been on his deathbed a few times this year, and I’m a skeptic but he really makes me question things... like when he was really sick, he was always hallucinate dead relatives. They were never living ones, and usually it was his mom stroking his hair, or he’d be having a conversation with his dad about how…

Since this has been in the pattern of talking about scary real people the past few years, this is one of the most frightening things that has ever happened to me.

I created an eggplant salad that’s always a hit. I pan fry eggplant and halloumi cheese and top it with a dressing made of plain greek yogurt, pomegranate molasses, and mint. I top with some toasted pine nuts when they aren’t a bajillion dollars.

My parents’ house has always had some spooky happenings, although they deny it. It’s over 100 years old and me and my sisters have always noticed weird things, from me seeing an ethereal floating skeleton in their book alcove when I was barely old enough to speak, to my sisters’ built in shelves slamming themselves…

I just paid $2,000 for tickets, and they won’t even let me choose my seat on the flights, so instead of being safely next to my fiance I’m going to be terrorizing the nearest passenger with my in flight terror screaming lol.

I did a past life regression from a youtube recording one time... It was lovely at first... I was a young woman in 1920s rural China. The problem is, my “town” turned out to be the name of a popular chinese restaurant in my actual city. I could find no recording of it as a place. Also, my coworker did the same…

Yeah I had the same surgery at 24. It was life changing. I couldn’t function in the year leading up to it, because they other procedures they tried didn’t work. I recall being told that there was a risk involved and still consenting.

My friend accidentally says that sometimes too instead of splurged- he gets words confused- and it makes me cackle every time.

My parents did stuff like that too- we’d make up little anonymous gift bags for families who were struggling that had new small toys and our hand-me-down clothes, or we would bring them food. They had a friend who was homeless and autistic, and he would never take money, he insisted on earning it. My parents were not…

Corporate volunteers sometimes pull the selfie shit too. It makes me so crazy- I bring mandated volunteers to things, many of whom have not eaten that day. The corporate volunteers will make my people do all of the work and will pose for pics and shit with them. It’s poverty tourism.

I literally cannot afford to get legally married because of student loan bullshit, nor can I purchase a newish functioning car. The way FAFSA/student loan companies work, if I get married, they will count my dude’s income too in calculating one big monthly payment, even though I don’t want him to pay for my loans.…

My mom had a full-on freakout on my once when I used the money she gave me to go to the mall to buy my friend a going away present. She gave me $20- I think I spent $13. She said it was her last $20. We were middle class, I think, and my parents were raising 3 kids on a single income, but I’ve never been sure if we…

I get this too and sometimes it actually makes me feel guilty, like I should struggle to lose weight or should eat less healthfully. I particularly got a lot of judgment from an acquaintance who often made comments like “you wouldn’t understand, you’re a thin person, you eat nothing.” As someone who fought an eating…

I thought the same thing. I live in Columbus, and will say that the Somali people are already the most shit upon group in the city. People are soooooooo nasty about them, it’s really, really sad. They definitely did not need this bad press.

Anecdotally, I don’t totally agree with this sentiment. My parents ALWAYS got us gifts, but they were nearly always educational or offbrand. They were not very materialistic, and we always would adopt a family or buy gifts anonymously for someone needy. My parents are damn good people. As an adult, I’m definitely…

I’ve always thought he had good comedic timing. Kathy Griffin kind of tries to act like she’s 20, which normally I think is awesome but she does it in a tacky way.

He’s like that rich guy on “the Strain”. He probably stays alive by feeding on the blood of the innocent.

Idk it looks kinda forced... like he pooped his pants and still has to retain a positive demeanor lol

That secret service agent in the background of the 4th photo kind of looks like he is regretting all of his life decisions as well lol.
