You’re a star!

Whaaaat, do you know what year that was? I wanna read it. 

Oooh, this one is extremely haunting, for sure. I think the part that gets to me the most is that it’s not just a “oh, I saw this thing, and nobody else noticed” like a lot of these stories.

No, this is a -known- thing that everyone in that community was aware of and just, like, trying to ignore. That’s so much more…

Oh wow, you’re doing the Lord’s work! Did you just start this year?

Yesss, absolute chills. 

Was that the one where it’s a girl, her mother, and her grandmother all in a house alone? Because I was thinking about that one as I was typing this comment, haha. 

Does anyone want to start building a canon of the all-time greats we’ve had on here, over the years?

I feel like the crawling civil war ghost would go on there for me, from this year. Just a deeply upsetting mental image.

That just sounds like “spend more money than you need to on a thing because your depression makes getting simple, easy tasks that take three minutes feel insurmountable so you put them off in an endless cycle”.

Which, Christ, way ahead of you on that one. 

Sell it immediately afterwards on Craigslist or 5mile for half of what you paid for it, and then you spent even less total? 

I don’t really have anything to add to this other than “eat the rich.” 

If Ben Affleck is not looking to date a celebrity, why is he using the dating app that’s for celebrities to date other celebrities?

I mean, she could always take the millions upon millions of dollars she has and retire for the rest of her life to some tropical paradise that the rest of us could only ever begin to dream of. She’s not a fucking mid-20s improv performer, she doesn’t -have- to be on her hussle anymore, using her huge platform to argue…

And they will believe him because, as per usual, boomers are in an absolute hurry to prove that they’re by-and-large sub-sentient. Blame it on the lead poisoning, I guess.

What people need to understand is that for the two minutes that your customer service person is dealing with you, you are their least favorite human being on the planet. They hate you so, so, so much. You are the bane of their entire being. And then when you leave, the next person because that.

Because customer…

Did you grow up poor? Literally everything that I ate from about ages 1-12 was extremely artificial tasting, haha. I guess it just reminds me of home. 

Never watched Seinfeld, but I can take a stab at Cheeze-Its.

They hit a near perfect fusion of thickness and crunchiness that makes biting into them more satisfying than a regular potato chip, they’re filling in a way that chips aren’t, and as their flavor settles it kinda goes through about three different flavors…

Uh... Not sure I follow you on that one. Plus, Rebecca Sugar wrote that song! 

I’m glad you enjoyed them, and I don’t want to take away from that, but WOW I could not disagree more. I think DA2 has my least favorite party of all time

Are straight men . . . okay? Like, is this normal for you guys? 

I felt a stomach-clenching jolt of terror when your story got to “group of older guys” because I was convinced you were about to be subjected to bullying on a whole other level.

Unexpected bros!
