Yeah, the “struggles” of privileged as shit, rich-ass women like her. The thing is, money does a helluva job insulating people from real problems and hardships that others face. People like this think, “Well I’m fine. I did it. I’m successful. I never had that problem, so it can’t be real and if anyone is complaining…

I ate the last of the garlic dills one night and had to be reasoned with not to drive 25 minutes to Walmart to get more. A house without pickles and peanut butter is not a home.

Listen, I am as messy as they come (not dirty, there is a distinction!), but I have the good sense to choose my angles so as not to put my shameful messes on display. The only thing worse than being messy is being stupid. I think it was Winston Churchill who said “I can clean up these piles tomorrow, but you madam,…

Maybe it marks me for an old cranky woman, but all I could see in that picture was the messy room. Is she banging a 15 year old boy whose mom is on vacation?

You know what has been bugging me for a month?

I don’t see “dead inside.” I see “oh God, I’m so tired. How many events is this? Don’t yawn don’t yawn don’t yawn - people will see it as rude. Wait, when is dinner again and do you think it’ll be anything I want to eat?”

For some reason, this makes me sad.

There’s been a few responses to this letter but this one is my favorite (H/T Backtalk).

Looking at homeless people IS gross but I don’t see him putting forth any solutions. Luckily I actually have a plan for that problem!!!

If you’re calling people assholes because they don’t give a reason why they won’t go out with you, I can think of at least one right now.

Wrong. A person doesn’t owe you an explanation for why they’re not interested. The fact that they’re not interested should be enough.

This is not to say that providing a reason wouldn’t be nice, or helpful. Just that people do not owe you a reason for saying no to a date or romantic overture.

Great article. I was talking to a 22-year-old recently who was having trouble dating women and was looking for advice. I looked at him and said, “OK, imagine that you’re a desirable woman. Now, tell me why you would date you?”

If people think that they didn’t look just as dumb or say things just as dumb as a teenager, they’re remembering their teenage years wrong. You may not have been posing for artsy try-hard pictures in a dress, but you sure as hell did something just as objectively weird.

This is the third time today I’ve mentioned life’s rich tapestry and all the different threads it takes to weave it.

They really help my thinks though!

Yeah, the no hygiene route to scare off the demons of ill health wasn’t really a big success story.

Germ Shower Co could use a more appealing face of their company.

Legalize and regulate sex work.
