I had metastatic testicular cancer about 10 years ago, which resulted in a surgical scar from my pelvis to my sternum. I beat the cancer, and contemplated a decoration for a couple years. For some reason, a working lunch turned down this road, and I told my boss at the time that I was going to get an alien tattooed,…

Honestly I think there should be a debate not because it will change anyone’s mind on policy but because it will be an hour and a half where he has no control whatsoever and will be hammered by Biden and the moderator at every turn- which might be enough to break his already fragile (and rabidly fraying) psyche. If I…

I found out Santa wasn’t real when I was about 7 or 8. I went to get a plate for cereal and the dish with Santa’s uneaten cookies was in there. I quickly shut the cabinet and found something else to eat. I was so annoyed and disappointed with my parents. I asked my favorite uncle about it and he explained the magic of…

Totally not the point of the contest submission but appropriate for Jezebel. A Facebook acquaintance shared that awful meme about how Biden wants to kill babies 5 minutes before they’re born. Some woman commented that she is a nurse at an OB office and has had to carry dead aborted fully grown fetuses to the…

Before all that, it’s time to check out last week’s winners. These are the best comebacks you’ve ever heard.

I am of a deeply suspicious nature, and I loathe lying more than anything. So if I suspect someone of lying I check their story. I’m good at finding evidence and I’ve caught so many people in lies.

The whole article is a mess

Once I was reading something science related about health and nutrition then I made the mistake of questioning someone who said sometimes they just drink water to cleanse for up to 5 days in a row a couple times a year. The diet people showed up bombarding me with comments about how it’s totally fine. I just deleted…

Why do I get the feeling this was just an attempt to poison the well by Spencer?  The right’s whole thing these last few years has been blatant trolling, and this just feels like a particularly hamfisted attempt.

Back in the late 90s my girlfriend and I went to London. Our hotel was near the theater district so we frequently passed the theaters on our way to and from the hotel. One afternoon we were walking and two young English women going the opposite direction stopped us and asked if we knew where Cats was. Having passed…

I am so glad for this one. In high school (in Texas) I had a really really shitty long distance running coach. He was a total dick and often didn’t acknowledge when people had heat stroke or problems that were arising from the INSANE HEAT AN HUMIDITY found in TX. I had zero respect for him and pretty much only joined…

She’s been taking the drug since 2005 and knew since 2015 she should declare her medical use of it, but she just...didn’t?

Infection rate per-capita has outpaced the US at times during the pandemic and their national superiority complex is what the American national superiority complex was modeled on.

We were never caught properly, but one of my exes and I used to have so much sex on this one giant trampoline in an abandoned playground out back of an apartment complex, and one day we went out there and someone had slashed the trampoline side-to-side in a big “X,” so they knew what was going on.

Just saying, there’s no way to read that last sentence that isn’t at least a little weird.

Nice job, Twitter, Facebook. Thanks for rescuing the dead horses after the barn burned down.

The problem is that the opposition to abortion you’re talking about is bound up tight with a lot very deep emotions about sexuality and shame - especially for white women who belong to evangelical/traditional white Christian churches, where the theology is driven by terror of eternal damnation. And those churches have…

A search of this article returns no results for “2018" or the term “mid-term” or “midterms”.

When I was in college, I went with a bunch of friends to the “cowboy Denny’s”, so called because, well, a WHOLE lot of cowboys hung out there. (There was actually a Denny’s much closer to campus, but after a gang-related shooting, they started closing at 10PM.) We were hanging out, laughing, chain smoking (early 90s),…

You get a little sick of being the cannon fodder in a war you shouldn’t have to fight. It also takes up a lot of time.
