Is that idiot Paris Dennard on this list, or was his invitation already revoked? I am out of the loop because I only get to attend the cookout because I married in and I know enough to be respectful and know my role.

The movie theater in the neighborhood I grew up in used to let all kinds of crazy outside food in. You could walk right in there with your large pizza in hand or burgers, whatever. They did NOT care. The same chain in the neighborhood I live in now, only 20 miles away, is not so cool. I thought I could bring a…

Mom!!!

Man I miss my husband’s big ass beard! He has a normal beard, but one summer he grew the fro and beard out and I was all about it. Then it got too hot for him. He basically engages in growing all of his hair/ beard out until he can’t stand it and then shaves it all off like he is Wooly Willy.

My mom is way too free with the sex talk. When I got engaged, although she adores my husband, she asked me if he satisfied me sexually because I shouldn’t settle. While I appreciate her concern I was a bit weirded out that she would think about this enough to ask. When sister went to mom about something with an ex,…

Although I am a Latina, I grew up in a majority Filipino neighborhood. All of this is truth and if you play your cards right, you will have an awesome time at Filipino Christmas!!

When my mom was getting advice from her OBGYN before the birth of my little sister, she was told to continue to eat all of the spices and flavors we eat as a family and they would come through in the breast milk. This would prime her baby to eat what the family eats. Both my sister and ate what the family ate and as a…

It is still gross if he was 18. You can’t bang your students. The power imbalance is too great. You shouldn’t even hook up with former students. It is super creepy!!

As it should be. That power imbalance is the key here. Plus, as a teacher you are supposed to want the best for your students. Praying on them is not the best.

I think a lot of what Obama did not accomplish is due to his overestimation of the intelligence of us (the American voter). Towards his last 2 years he always spoke on TV the way I speak to my 8th graders in June. “Really?!? Did you do the thing I just warned you against???” Remember that run of what felt like him on…

Not rap, but I think the bigger question is why isn’t CHIC in the RRHOF???

I could be wrong, but I read somewhere that David Bowie was dying to be the first white person on Soul Train, but Gino Vanelli beat him to it.

Seems legit

I know! It reminds me of my petty students who call me over to “scare” their friend with the threat of tattling. I frequently tell my students that if I have to manage their affairs no one will be happy, they’re 13 it’s time to handle your business.

My mom is a retired teacher and was an early education/ elementary and middle school teacher. She taught me to read really well before kindergarten. So, my kinder teacher wanted to bump me up to first grade but mom was afraid I’d turn into some socially awkward weirdo (surprise! the weird cult you joined right around…

When the whole #metoo thing started up, I thought why is that even a hashtag? EVERY WOMAN is in the #metoo. And a lot of men, too. And now I watched this video with my husband in the room I am pretty sure he is going to start nagging me to carry my pepper spray all of the time now. Which, I should be but . . . I guess…

At least you still have Mexican Thanksgiving!

My white cousin and her 6 times to get his GED white husband are the ones having their 4th kid (oldest is 7) and getting entitlements. Burns me up that my tax dollars pay for that shit. Especially since her dad is a Trump thumper.

My sister (we observe Mexican Thanksgiving) is so not thrilled to go to her white boyfriend’s thanksgiving. I get to go to husband’s black Thanksgiving some years. On some years I hit up Mexican and black Thanksgiving. #blessed

Came here to say this. But, you forgot that with any luck there are tamales at Hispanic Thanksgiving.
