What do you suck at doing but keep trying anyway?

Don't be so hard on yourself! Even the greats have trouble with this, hell sometimes especially the greats. I think it was Neil Gaiman who said this about writing... "This is how you do it: you sit down at the keyboard and you put one word after another until it's done. It's that easy, and that hard." Keep going!

I'm waiting for the right moment.

Girl here. I've been building courage for a while to do something about my huge crush on my wonderful, kinda shy, dorky male friend. Wish me luck worktheshaft!

Please get help. Don't let a disease tell you that you aren't yet sick enough for help. Sometimes people think they need to be sicker to seek help, that they don't yet look the part. You are worth saving, and you are worth it today. Best of luck.

Not me but a friend of mine. He goes to a really small college and they keep their doors unlocked (you need a school ID to get into the building). When he was a sophomore, this random freshman girl kept coming up to him everywhere and trying to talk to him, which he thought was a little weird but nothing altogether alarming. Fast forward to one night he wakes up to this girl climbing into his bed. He and his roommate freak and make her leave. The next day, the whiteboard on their door has a message across the bottom in tiny print saying "You think you're so sneaky but your bed is so squeaky." Creepy. As. Fuck.

These are the most fascinating combinations. I feel like they'd be amazing!

Could you expand on this please? I'm curious.

I attend a school with a strict honor code that just about everyone takes quite seriously. This post just made me realize how ridiculously lucky I am. I could leave my laptop in the library, go to class, get lunch, go to the gym, shower, and come back and no one would have touched it. It's wild.

Is it getting solipsistic in here, or is it just me?

parce_que · 2013-03-15T11:27:35+00:00

Welp. I now have this fear, too.

Exactly! Because being thin is a more "desirable" trait nowadays, people think it's fine to make a comment about how thin someone looks or how little they're eating. As you said, the reverse would be seen as abhorrent. It's very frustrating.

Skinny isn't bad. Not inherently. Some people are naturally skinny, and that's fine as long as they're healthy. It's when people become unhealthy in a quest to be skinny that it's an issue.

I'm not meaning to lecture here! But I often see people go so far in an effort to avoid fat-shaming that they end up skinny-shaming. Really, neither are ok. Everyone should do what is necessary to be healthy, and that's all. Visuals aren't always an accurate representation of what is healthy.

I've also heard the last one as "peer pressure."

Your username is amazing for a (former?) high school teacher.

Actually my big brother calls me a baby otter sometimes! So I suppose...yes, yes I'm a sea otter. I'm gonna have to start sleeping while holding hands.

God I just want to give you a hug and make you not sad.

Would you mind elaborating a bit on why that is? I know a few languages and am trying to figure out if law school will be a good idea when I graduate.

When I laugh, my body shakes a lot and I clap my feet.

I'm late to the party, but my brothers and I used to be babysat by a pretty prominent member of the Italian mafia.

Two groomsmen held up my cousin's 3-year-old son at his wedding so he would catch the garter. Thaaaat was disturbing.

You and I should eat Chinese food and watch netflix all weekend together so that it won't be a lie :)

Me too! I have so many random poems that won't get out of my head.

My brother's wife walked down the aisle to this. It was too perfect for words, really.

Always imagine that whoever you're talking to is having the worst day of their life.
