My only problem with this is that if you’re getting paid, why not just follow the frickin’ list of 10 simple rules???

Woman whose job title is also YouTube Star.

What I really want to know is what self-respecting woman dates and reproduces with someone whose job title is “YouTube Star”

NOPE. These “pranks” are emotionally manipulative and sociopathic. It's like a few years ago when that guy faked a very harrowing and fatal accident to see if his girlfriend loved him enough and then proposed.

It’s frustrating that they even have to do this. That there have to be endless hours spent into “investigating” this bullshit, millions of dollars wasted on it, and now they don’t get reimbursement for their expenses when they haven’t done a damn thing wrong. I completely despise these stooges that make these asinine,…

I think it’s an absolute shame that it had to come to this, and I’m sure that anti-abortion activists will find something else to focus on. It’s fucking outrageous. RESPECT to Cecile Richards. I want to be her. In the meantime, I’ll keep sending money to PP.

No. Businesses might, in some weird way, be profiting from the holiday by having a sale, but they could call it literally any other kind of sale (“Second Day of Period Sale and everything is literally gushing out of our stores!”) and they could still turn a tidy profit...but overall I think Columbus Day needs to go,…

Bad plastic surgery will do that

I feel like it’s probably a combo of rough living and cosmetic surgery on your face before/during your 20s.

I said she looks older than she is and that a rough life can have a toll on people's looks. There are plenty of cases of it - look at all the old rock stars who look like mummies now from all the drugs and wild living! Rough lives can age people and I was thinking maybe that's the case with her. Maybe it's not! Maybe…

I vaguely remember in kindergarten one of my social studies teachers making a spectacle in front of the class about how wrong I was about the civil war having anything to do with slavery.

Well, yes and no. Obviously the modeled picture is a brushed and dusted portrait and not “real life,” but frankly, I live my real life, with its breakouts and shitty hair days and fat arms and cat hair everywhere and ratty old sheets and carpet we paid to have cleaned like a month ago and it’s already a dingy horror…

Like BeetArthur said, fake memory-making is it! It’s like this ... purely artificial aesthetic nostalgia enchanted garbage.

OMG! I’m toying with an origami theme! Maybe we can legit do this, minus the depression-era overalls. Or at least I’ve been inspired to have a paper-airplane making/flying contest! I am 100% serious. I am sorry to mar your rant by being positively inspired by the photo you described, because I totally feel the…

My sister got married last Saturday. A potluck in her back yard with wildflowers and homemade papier mache lanters. She spent about $50, including her dress. There were two other weddings in the village that day, all the same deal. I don’t really understand why a bride would subject herself to any extra BS beyond some…

I think it's also, like, the social media/reality TV effect. I'm about to go full old lady on you: I think that more than wanting to create memories, these are people who want to document their starring role. I don't think there's anything sentimental or genuine about it. I think it's an ode to the ego.

let’s just call it what it is: rich person LARPing. My little brother got married recently and the wedding was “Gatsby-inspired” even though he and his bride are scraping by. Gatsby-inspired, indeed.

I find this kind of artistic fake memory-making really strange. Don’t we want to remember the actual day, the people, for who they really are?

Fake memory making is exactly what it is. How can these people not feel a little embarrassed to be doing this.
