The husband of a friend of mine had a similar story. Basically, an older woman in the neighborhood slept with all the boys, and he didn’t realize he was allowed to say no. He didn’t know it was weird until he became insanely overprotective when his son turned 12, and wouldnt allow him to sleep at his friends’ houses…

When I was 16, I became really close friends with a dude who told me his dad and brothers mocked him constantly for not being “man enough” & for having a serious girlfriend and gave him pointers on picking up girls and how to cheat without getting caught. Eventually he turned into a total scumbag just like the rest of…

(Whispers while looking around cautiously) Same

OK, it can’t possibly be legal for a massage therapist to bite a client, can it?

Aye

Me too. I actually got in an arguement with my Western Civ teacher about this. On the first day of class, we were supposed to go around the room and say which time period and country we most wanted to live in. I was one of only two people to say I wouldn’t want to live any other time but present day because I would…

That is so fucked up I don't even know where to begin

For a second I thought you meant you lost your virginity WITH Shirley Manson and I was mentally high fiving you until I realized what you meant

Aaaargh! I didn't know it was cancelled. It was so funny, and Fred and Rob played so well off each other

Oh God, me too. If I had actually attracted some really awesome dudes who were great in bed, I wouldn’t be so consumed with self loathing about it now. But they were all unhinged jabronies

If she could have simply said, “My job is so stressful and chaotic, I find it helpful to follow a set schedule when I’m not working so I can maintain a sense of stability,” I wouldn’t think twice about this. But fuck me, the sheer unrelenting intellectual masturbation and self congratulation!

I only made it a few lines because it Reminded me too of my insufferable, pretentious younger self with my black dresses, over the knee socks and 17 pound platform shoes. Every once in a while I am mortified by the memory of pontificating about the Satyricon, which I would very pointedly read during lulls while I was…

I had an amazing and very tough HS English teacher who assigned 25 page research papers every year. I still remember the awesome librarian down at the central library who taught me (pre-Internet) how to refine my search topics, suggested books and explained how to use all the resources.

It’s astonishing and disheartening how little has changed since that movie was realeased in ‘89

I lived in La Habra for a couple years as a kid in the mid 70's. I remember we could ride our bikes to the edge of the development and there was just empty land.

I love vegetables and will eat anything and spaghetti squash fucking sucks. It doesn’t taste like noodles, the texture is gross and it gives a weird aftertaste to any sauce you use on it

Yes. I moved to CA in ‘99 & I Would force my sister & my friends to try them when they visited . I don’t think they were even sold in grocery stores in the Midwest, bc I remember having to asking a friend to show me both how to pick a ripe one, & slice it bc I was so befuddled.

Same. In 1902, my grandpa’s family was living in a holler in Kentucky, doing their level best to permanently fuck up the environment mining coal and limestone, 35 years away from TVA bringing them electricity and running water.

When I was in college, I happened to be on the phone with my dad while my mom had what we found out later was a stroke. My dad completely flipped out and dropped the phone. I was in a different state, and I didn’t think 911 would take me seriously because I had a very young sounding voice and it was 30 years ago and I…

I assume she made decent money during her hey day. While she lived at the mansion, I assume she got her normal allowance plus a salary from the reality show, and no expenses. And she’s married to an ex-professional athlete. What the fuck did they spend all their money on?
