Born 6 weeks early by emergency C-section, and here I am 20 years later, alive and well. Do what you want, lotus birth woman, as it doesn't seem to be harmful in any way, but I think my kid will turn out fine if I cut off the umbilical cord.

Don't go naked, always make sure you have your frosting squirting bra on!

Whatever happened to just being grateful to get a gift?!

My favorite response to "No, I'm really tired." was "Oh, come on, it'll wake you up!" at this point I pretended to be super drunk, sat in the street, and told him I was going to sleep there. At this point he decided to shut up and just walk me to my dorm and leave.

MARK. Oh man, Mark. He was short, he walked with a limp that was a side effect of cancer he had as a baby, and by the time I graduated 8th grade I was madly infatuated. He was the funniest guy I had ever met. I remember one day I was on the verge of crying and trying to keep it together and he somehow said…

Thank you for clearing that up! Hungary is quite beautiful, I am in Budapest. Rural Romania was stunning as well. I am also volunteering at a community center in a district with a large Roma minority, so that should prove interesting. (And one of the other reasons I was worried about saying something offensive on…

Studying abroad in Hungary. Was in Romania a few weekends ago. I have not interacted with any Roma personally, but the attitudes towards them are very real. The stigma is of Roma being a thieving people that support themselves through petty crime. It's a terrible cycle- you're Roma and you can't get a job because…

I was SO mad until I caught the satire. Close one.

The INTERNET is PUBLIC? GASP. Screenshots? What are those? Like some sort of vodka I slurp off my laptop?

Yep looks like she better not be teaching geography...

General rule of thumb: if the word "rape" is in it, it's probably illegal.

from LSU protesting Planned Parenthood***

There was a pro-life group from LSU Planned Parenthood on my campus last spring. It was ridiculous because a) Louisiana PP doesn't perform abortions, so I'm unsure what exactly they hoped to accomplish with their demonstration and b) the materials they handed out were pink and meant to parody Planned Parenthood, but…

"I tried to fight breast cancer and all I got was a massive heart attack."

"Big scary black people scare you at the polls"

I don't think it's right to criticize people to moving to areas with better schools and lower crime. It's just a move that makes sense when you're having children. It's troubling, yes, and it's not at all helping socioeconomic diversity, but I think the bigger criticism should be towards fixing the crime and bad…

My question is "easy way out of" WHAT? Easy way out for the RAPIST? Somehow I don't see it as an easy way out for the girl who GOT RAPED.

I never understand why when it comes to rape, people suddenly jump to "2 wrongs make a right." No one is saying she was right to sneak out. No one is saying she was right to get drunk. No one is defending those things. ALL WE'RE SAYING IS HE WAS WRONG TO RAPE HER. THAT SHOULD NOT BE A CONTROVERSIAL STATEMENT.

Awareness campaigns are the worst. I don't know who came up with the idea to make people "aware" of something, but I don't know what they were thinking or what they thought they would accomplish. I am so sick of "turn Facebook pink for breast cancer!" and similar nonsense. Growing up, my aunt had non-Hodgkins…
