Fantasies are a wonderful thing. They allow us to delve deep into our sexual psyches without any judgement from the outside. Fantasies allow us to bypass having to awkwardly ask our partner if they would so kindly wrap our bodies in bacon and eat maple syrup out of our ass. We can just think that […] More
In a modern world driven by technology, weighed down by incessant swiping and posting and selfie taking, it’s sometimes easy to get swept away in a bitter swirl of 21st century sludge. A vast majority of people eat like sh*t, many of us live paycheck to paycheck, and we tend to be really hard on […] More
While it doesn’t necessarily take a sh*t ton of money to make a person utterly annoying, disgusting, and shamelessly spoiled, it sure does help! And I’m not talking about a little huffing and puffing every now and then when someone doesn’t get their way (although that sh*t is annoying AF) — I’m talking about the wretched […] More
If you’ve ever delved into the prickly world of hair removal, you’re probably quite familiar with the painful form of torture that we know today as waxing. Shouts out to all the little pieces of bloody flesh that have been ripped from desperate bodies over the years. Hey, I get it — shaving can leave hella […] More
As a human, there are some things in life (CREEPY CRAWLIES) that get under our skin — morbid facts, scary sea creatures, and torture statistics — just to name a few. Yes, we are creeped the F out, but we’re weird in the way that we just HAVE to click on the video that shows thousands of […] More
To be a millennial in the dating world is to aimlessly swipe away, combatting carpal tunnel and f*ckboys like it’s our overqualified and underpaid job. We’re basically just shooting arrows of half-assed drinking dates and mindless hookups until we hit someone that isn’t totally disgusting and annoying. Maybe if we listened to those who came before […] More
America’s views on mental health and the surrounding institutions have never been very accepting. Yet, so many of us struggle with our own mental health on a day to day basis. For many, we just try to sweep our problems under the rug and hope to get on with our lives, for better or worse, […] More
Millennials get a bad rap. They say we’re lazy, narcissistic, indulgent, and that we don’t work hard enough. If I had one dollar for every time a baby boomer told me — “Back in my day, I just walked into an office and asked for a job. Why don’t you do that?” — I’d be THIS close […] More
Oh to be computer illiterate in 2017. And while not all grandparents, dads, mothers, and unfortunately out of touch youths are completely incompetent when it comes to technology, those who are — well — sit back, relax, and enjoy the onslaught of Hotmail and AOL email accounts. We’re talking about the grandfather who tried to scan a […] More
Shame. Deception. Abuse. No family is perfect, but when you’re dealing with dark and harrowing secrets of close and distant relatives, the truth either comes out and ruins people’s lives or it continues to fester in a poisoned family tree. Maybe it was your great uncle who was a known pedophile. Close younger relatives have been put […] More
Your boyfriend just broke up with you. You’re attending your father’s funeral. You can’t take the loneliness and despair so you weep in bed at night. People cry for myriad reasons — from stress, pleasure, anger, sadness and suffering, to physical pain. Sometimes it’s good to let the water works flow freely because when you hold […] More
Sure, there are the Donald Trumps, Hitlers, and Sadam Husseins of the world — and yeah, their bad and abhorrent nature stands out like a sore thumb — but what about the wretched people of the world whose bad nature is a bit harder to spot? What are the signs that someone is an inherently bad person? […] More
