What the shit???? When I was a kid, my parents made me go to several classmates’ parties that I didn’t want to go to. They also made me invite people I didn’t want to invite to my parties because they didn’t want kids left out. I strongly believe this taught me a valuable lesson about including people and doing the…

Damn you, Fred Rogers, you just made me burst into tears.

When I was 8 I insisted on inviting the boy from my class (who had behavioural problems, due to a poor family life) to my birthday party. Other parents took my mum aside to ask her ‘if she was sure’. My mum was worried and checked with my, and apparently I replied that I knew he didn’t get invited to parties a lot,…

In case anyone else was curious:

My experience in this particular area is limited but from my experience working in Japan, I'm assuming that the high-class places don't really accept foreign girls, and if they do they only have one as a token. Living in Japan as a foreigner is hella tough which makes working in the Japanaese sex industry seem extra…

Meanwhile, some Christian bakers are going to gay neighborhoods and giving out free cupcakes to show support. http://t.co/v5m4IcvlBN

The lesson is: when on vacation, sleep inside hotel rooms, as God intended.

See, camping is bad.

That might have been rhetorical but I'm going to tell you anyways...

I love this story. The Gofundme page cracked me up. It's nice to see good news once in a while. He's going to have a blast in Philly!

I got her back! Also, here's a bonus photo of her being EXTRA fucking gorgeous. Whenever someone is like "you sued a crazy drug dealer for your cat? Why?" I show them this photo. Could you say no to this face? I think not.

UK. No financial support whatsoever (apart from a small guilt payment the first Christmas that didn't cover the rent arrears, but was appreciated anyway). And yes it should be mandatory, but (deep breath) things had got so ugly by then that he had 'decided' that the kids probably weren't his anyway. He was on the…

Hahahaaaa, do you know I'm reading everyone else's stories and thinking "shit that's so awful" too- at least I didn't catch them or whatever.

About seven years ago I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I was lucky in that it was fairly isolated so they just chopped that sucker out, but I was devastated by the treatments. Just.. so so sick. An old friend of mine (we'd shared a really shitty apt in NYC in my early 20s and during this time she and I had had a…

I've told this story before here. But.

Real Talk, I'd spend if it I had it. When I get married, I will undoubtedly be one of these super cheapo $100 brides. But it won't be because our love is purer and we are superior. It'll just be because neither us nor our parents have the cash to shell out!

Maybe we should do a survey of non-cheapie weddings! Like, only want to hear from people who paid $20K and up...

Courthouse wedding: $15; Duration: 2.5 years; Divorce: $350; Persisting Debt: around $30,000; Credit Damage: Nigh on Irreparable
