Velvet Dix, I kid you not.

Peaches Platinum.

Tabitha McDade. I sound like I’m rebelling against my very uptight father.

Bingo DuBois, at your service for all your clown stripper needs.

Muffin Grubbs-Rex. I sound very liberated, but quite dumb.

Hannibal Walnut... not as catchy. Maybe that’ll be my serial killer name?

It is news to me that people give the honest answer when being forced to play security question trivia. Why TF would I actually tell anyone my mother’s real maiden name? I was taught to treat those fields like any other password.

Let’s be honest. Her writing’s about mocking the unwell uncool kid for laughs. It’s not about how ‘scared’ she is or anything like that.

Ride public transit and get over yourself, lady. There are all kinds of people out there, and...that’s fine.

Yeah, no. Forcing a kid or coercing them to visit someone they don't want to see is not good parenting.

When my parents were divorcing my dad wasn’t abusive but he did say really really nasty things about my mom. After telling him several times I didn’t want to talk about my mom and I didn’t want to hear him talk about her either, I came to the realization that he wasn’t going to stop. I stopped seeing him for awhile…

Orrrr maybe Facebook doesn’t have automatic hooks in every law enforcement database in the world and an automated system set up to prevent people getting trolled to death did something unintended?

I don't know what to say to your post except it moved me. So many thanks and much appreciation for your basic decency. It seems you too understand almost all of life is lived in shades of gray...peace to you and your family.

I don’t know whether or not I agree with this. Obviously Bill is human garbage, but I’m not sold on Camille.

Is that like what Hillary is accused of?

Honestly, I think my family topped even Kanye’s Mother’s Day.

THIS.

I am so lucky in my mom and in my daughter and I wish I could parent some of the hurting people I’m seeing on here.

Y’all are stronger than you know, and you can be better than your moms. My mom did it, and y’all can too.

And thank you for the perspective. My mom emotionally exhausts me sometimes but she was…

Funny thing is, leaving is absolutely the opposite of what Jesus would have done.

I didn’t read this book until after college, long after I had read some of the most disturbing texts the world of literature has to offer. But even after all that, I still consider parts of this some of more horrifying things I’ve read —I cannot believe it is a kid’s book.
