Did a conservative actually admit that black people as a whole are less advantaged than white people in this country? Holy shit, they must REALLY hate Obama.

Right, because no anorexic girl has ever promised herself she'll start eating normally again after xyz...

I am still waiting for someone to explain to me how exactly these types of diets differentiate from an eating disorder.

My first quit was the violin. My teacher said she wanted me to play in a recital and instead of being a normal six year old child and hyperventilating, I waited until the end of the lesson, packed my violin in my case, went outside to where my mom was waiting in the hall and calmly said "I quit." And then refused to…

For me it was a throat thing, probably strep. I took a couple leftover amoxicilan that had long expired and was fine while my friends were shocked and horrified. Fun fact: getting that prescription a year earlier was actually the first time I'd ever seen a doctor because I was sick. I'd had checkups as a kid, had…

My parents are both doctors and neither of them believes that medicine "really" expires. It wasn't until I was twenty-three or so that I realized that other people take the expiration dates on medicine seriously.

The pancake one reminds me of one my nephew, age three, said recently. My dad is kinda awesome at pancakes. He makes shapes and characters and everything (once he made a giraffe riding a unicycle just to prove that he could). Sunday mornings are pancake mornings at grandma and grandpa's house, so my nephews were over.…

Okay, only, I was JUST having this conversation about mass shootings. If over the course of several years, dozens of say, Asian women, started shooting up public places, there would be nonstop coverage of it and every news outlet would be wondering what it was about the Asian culture and/or femininity that led to this…

Uh, K'nex were the shit. One of the best presents my parents ever got us was a huge thing of K'nex. Those were the best things ever. Well, right up until my sister accidentally closed the door to the den while the cat was still in it and he ended up using the box they were kept in as a litterbox. To this day, I still…

The comments, good lord the comments! To think, these nice Christian people took the time on Christmas day to talk about how they wish it was the cap of an electric chair and call him a faggot. Jesus must be so proud.

In my experience it's rarely that the family sits down and discusses hot political topics over the dinner table as it is your relatives just kinda displaying how racist/sexist/homophobic they are without even realizing. Like, Uncle Frank is telling this amusing anecdote about his annoying boss (who you should know…

Okay yeah, that first paragraph was very close to my first time. Senior year of high school, we didn't really like each other but always had a flirty thing going on, we were both rebounding and someone decided it would be a great idea if we were together. It wasn't.

With my first kiss, it wasn't so much his tongue as the fact that he seemed intent on swallowing my entire face. Ick, just remembering it makes me feel like I need a shower.

Oh my first kiss was so bad! I was fourteen and he thought that I had this adorable trait of nuzzling my head in the crook of his shoulder after making out, when in fact I was trying to subtly wipe the saliva off my face with his shirt.

I'm not embarrassed too much by the guy I lost my virginity to, I am however embarrassed by the fact that the woman who later married him hates my guts for it and is convinced that I am still in love with him. Despite the fact that I haven't spoken to the guy in over five years and even when I had nothing to compare…

I worked at WS too and while a lot of their pricy stuff is worth the money (my dream kitchen has a full set of copper core saucepans and everything Le Creuset has ever made) the little stuff is never worth it.

Yeah, I learned my lesson after those darn Martha Stewart teacakes mold. I don't know what the hell my problem is, but I just can't make them work. I'm an awesome chef and a very talented cake decorator but those things just defeat me.

I have a fucking degree in pastry arts from one of the top cooking schools in the country and yet I still can't make those fancy WS cake molds look like anything other than a pile of cake. And believe me, I've tried.

OMG, that is amazing. It's inspired by caveman flint knives! Flint knives, AKA kinda sharp rocks AKA the reason why actual knives were invented in the first place.

I worked at WS a few years back and I don't remember anything this ridiculous either! Like yeah, they had expensive shit but at least it was expensive shit worth the money. I mean, I didn't have the money to spend on it, but the Main Line socialites we catered to definitely did.
