You can’t fully trust anyone, not your parents, siblings, extended family, spouse, best friend forever, no one. Don’t count on anyone for anything and accept that the only person in your life who has your best interests at heart is you.

I’ve met a couple Mormons that were reaaaally deep into the shit and talked and acted like robots just parroting all the religious nonsense they’d been fed. But to be fair, I’ve also met some cool Mormons who were less into it and generally just good people.
Yeah, they never gave a shit about that, it was all religious services on Sundays only. If I remember correctly there was Catholic, Protestant, Muslim, Jewish, and Buddhist services, and I think maybe Wiccan.

When I was in basic training in the U.S. Army in the late '90s, we were also offered free bibles and rosary beads and no other religious materials, although there were various services for many religions on Sundays that you were allowed to attend.
Graduating from college, and with a 4.0. I fucking HATE school, and i put that shit off until my 30s. None of it was easy and I studied my ass off to get that 4.0. I truly never thought I would ever graduate, I started and stopped so many times.
I said it before and I’ll say it again: If you are a woman and you vote for Trump, you are not a woman. How can you vote for someone who doesn’t have our best interests at heart? How can you vote for someone who sees us as no more than a body to be fucked and make babies? Why is your self-esteem so low? Why do you not value yourself more? You are capable of more than what they are telling you!
This is just fucking awful. I’m childfree by choice, but I feel horrible for my fellow women that want to have kids, but they might run into shit like this, so they’ll just DIE I guess?? What the fuck is wrong America?
Fuck yeah. Damn, I should learn how to make fudge, but I know I’d get fat as hell.
Not an icecream truck, but the fuel delivery truck music that I heard while I was in a study abroad program in Amman, Jordan is fucking terrifying. Not my video but this is it
That’s fair

Worst: Tootsie Rolls, they’re just wax with a slightly sweet flavor
Math. I sucked at math since 3rd grade and that shit was a struggle all the way through college. I’m lucky i can even count, I swear to God. Had to pass THREE remedial math courses just to be allowed to take the course that counted for actual credit towards my degree. Lately I’ve been contemplating going back to college for a second degree, but I realized I’d have to take shit like pre-calculus for the degrees I’m looking at and I just don’t think I could do it. My brain is such a letdown.
Cigarettes. Went cold turkey every time. 3 time’s the charm! It’s been 13 years now, but I still occasionally get cravings, and sometimes I dream about having one and then wake up feeling super guilty and horrible about myself even though it wasn’t real.
If you’re a woman and you’re voting for Trump, you ain’t a woman.

A woman
One of the first jobs I had out of high-school was working at a gas station and we sold scratch-offs and I don’t recall that we kept track of the tickets at all.
Omg, this sounds awful, you have my deepest sympathy. Didn’t they give you anything for pain management!?

I don’t, I just finally gained the willpower to get up and do shit even though I’m not motivated. Very often in life, you have to do shit you don’t wanna do. This doesn’t mean your life sucks and that you cannot find any joy in your day, this is simply a fact of life. Once you accept this and stop having feelings about it, it’s 100% easier to go about your day. I don’t think this is a modern day thing, either. I’m sure you could pick any time period in history and find a human that wasn’t thrilled with the idea of getting up and doing XYZ thing that they had to do that day in order to survive.
