I agree. Folks misbehaving this badly are often trying to get some kind of a reaction from others that will make them feel justified in doing such a shitty job. If you fail to give him that justification it will aggrieve him more than anything you could possibly do actively.

Thanks for responding! I try not to be an asshat. If I am accidentally being one and get called on it, I can take that, and I can do it without lighting anyone on fire either.

“Last Shift” scared the beejeezus out of me. And it has a really cool female lead to boot.

No but seriously though, like how did people ever get married? My brother-in-law and his fiancee have had so many parties and showers (and cruises, yes plural, wtf) that I’ve lost count and we’re still five months out from the big day.

It seems like such a great way to dispose of evidence.

Ugh, I’m sorry. You get sympathy. Sympathy!

Apparently, there’s a whole backlash now against, “I got married and it only cost $4,000 and just 75 guests and it was very modest and everybody loved it anyway,” stories, but that’s my actual story, and I’m sticking to it!

My skin and scalp have issues because of medication, and I can’t use anything scented at all when it flares up. I use Sanex hypoallergenic shower gel to wash my hair, then if it needs conditioner I use coconut oil but avoid my scalp altogether.

I’ve been having a rough week. Both me and my bf are over worked, under-slept, broke-ish and have been arguing often. He’s tried to self harm during some of these fights and it’s been hard seeing him do that. We both have histories with depression & suicidal thoughts, so his actions have brought up old desires to self…

Pull the trigger and DTMFA. He’s not worth your time.

I have a kinja issue, could someone please help out? A couple of days ago my notifications simply disappeared. There is no “notifications” to click upon or anything like that, is it just me? Thanks for any help & apologies if this is the wrong place or poor etiquette.

I don’t want to make light of your situation. Maybe there is something in this list that you could do? (A lot of them are blue collar, but there might be something. Also maybe in the comments.)

That’s pretty badass. You should be proud. I’m sorry you were treated that way.

I am a longtime Jezebel reader, but have never participated in this thing. I was very confused at the comments on the article at first, but now I realize, kinda, wth is going on here. Is there anything I don’t know? Are there rules? Do you have to get voted in? Reading the comments on here tonight makes me think you…

Just trying something.. but I believe I have the power to ungrey things.. still deciding if i should put it to good use.

I keep a “content bank” for my cover letters. They are hell to write. I did some online searches, grabbed stuff that sounded good and changed it around to fit my needs. Obviously I use my own stuff as well. I spent a fair amount of time on this (a day) just to build enough material that I can dip into as needed. So…

I just finished The Boston Girl by Anita Diamant, which takes place in the 1920's and was really good, nice, interesting and fluffy. Now I’m reading Cannery Row by John Steinbeck while simultaneously re-reading Harry Potter and the O of TP, but I think Sirius dies in this one? So I’m postponing finishing it because I…

I want to watch A Girl Walks Home Alone At Night. Iranian vampires - woot!

To be fair, if things had gone by my mom’s plan they would have ended up there anyway.

Got busted flushing carrots and peas down the toilet- hated those little frozen cube carrots!
