Mine is similar, but he didn't live in squalor growing up - he had a stay at home mom. For me, even though I didn't do THAT much as a kid, I did enough because my mom wasn't around to clean for me. We're both really lazy and don't like cleaning, but I still do way more than him because he is just not used to having to…

I've been considering a Swiffer, and the commercial swayed me a bit. But it makes sense for me - there are literally two hard floors in my apartment and buying a whole mop and bucket to clean them is a waste of space! Makes more sense to have something small and less powerful.

My mom got some weed when she was diagnosed with cancer and was smoking it around me. I didn't touch it or smoke it myself. Then I had to travel on the train for 19 hours, and I had to sit in the train station for ~6 hours before my train even left. One of the police dogs started coming towards me sniffing and I was…

That just reminds me of how people claim "Soda actually doesn't hydrate you at all, you'll be dehydrated all the time if you only drink it!!!" I tell them that if that was true I would have died of dehydration by now because that's all I drink and laugh at them as they splutter.

Oh my god watching you go from sincerely trying to convince people you're right to incoherently attacking people with more knowledge and experience than you is absolutely hysterical.

such troll

Well you have to wait until one of the current whites turn into a troll, then the Valar of Jezebel have to decide to make you a white commenter. Left to right, the Valar: Jessica, Dodai, Erin, Burt, Doug, and Tracie.

I'm pretty sure that's not it - one of my family friends had one of those and I did a lot of research on it because I was afraid of the same thing and it didn't match a lot of the symptoms. I did pray pretty hard though.

You're right now that I think about it, the health center here is free just to get looked at and they only start charging you if they need to do a procedure or prescribe you something. I should do that next time it happens! Thanks!

No insurance and broke college student :( It's a recurring thing though and I should have insurance when I get a real job in June so I can probably go then. Until then I think I'll start Neosporin-ing it when it happens, hahah.

Nothing like that. I've had boyfriend check it out and he always says it just looks reddish and nothing visible there.

I would go to a bar and order a few drinks and try them that way. That way you won't buy a whole bottle of something you don't end up liking - or go visit a friend that already has that alcohol and try some.

It's not about how many there are, it's about who recommends them. If you get a single recommend from someone who's in the white by default, or a reply by them, you get bumped up to the whites. If you get 30 recommends and they're all people who are by default in the gray, you will remain in the gray. If a person…

TMI butt stuff. Not sex related or poop related though.

My sophomore year, I failed my Calc 2, and got low enough grades to be put on probation (D average). The next semester I took it again, tried harder...and still failed. This time I was expelled. I wrote an appeal letter, outlining everything I would do to turn it around, and got accepted back, under the condition that…

I'm not sure how your argument of "universities should teach" is inconsistent with the argument "universities should keep students from drinking themselves to death, breaking the law, and being terrible people". Part of college, at least in the United States, is about learning to be an adult in a protected…

Yeah I figured the sentence I found was just a matter of forgetting how it started by the end (the "it's similar to" and "bears a striking resemblance to", I do that all the time starting sentences with "Although" and adding a "though" on the end), but then I can't untangle the rest of it. I just want to know what…

Suffice it to say that it's similar to the lack of transparency demonstrated in the processes that bears a striking resemblance to the frustration sexual assault victims have vocalized during the current battle with Universities attempting to revamp their policies in that regard.

That and Comcast. Which I think says more about our cable options than anything else. Between the two of them they have like 60% of cable subscribers or something.

Oh my god, you missed the point from the very first sentence of this long-winded response. I suggest you go back and reread my comment, specifically this:
