Why do we love peering behind the curtain of other people’s relationships so much? Is it because we want to feel better about ourselves? Because we want to know whether or not our own relationships are normal? Just because we like to laugh at jokes we understand as long as it’s not currently happening to us? It’s probably some...
No one grows up hoping they’ll have to have braces – or hoping they’ll have to pay for braces for their kid. That said, even though some people have to wear them for years and endure a non-insignificant amount of pain, I don’t know of anyone who wishes they didn’t have straight, gorgeous teeth. Smiles say a lot about...
Everyone who has ever been a child realizes that a smile can be the difference between confidence and being bullied, because children are terrible to each other for little to no reason. Many of us had braces, but there were many more whose parents couldn’t afford them and had to wait until they were adults to fix their own smiles. And while...
Relationships are, at their core, funny. It’s amusing to co-habitate with another human. To learn their likes and dislikes and quirks, the things that are endearing and the things that drive you mad. Even better is getting a peek behind the curtain of other people’s relationships, which is one reason we love these 13 tweets so...
It’s hard to say when “hook up” became the new euphemism for sex, or how we ever allowed it to replace MY favorite phrasing, “tummy smushing,” but however it happened, here we are, and everybody you know has got their story about that one crazy hook up they had. This collection of such tales is particularly...
If you’ve ever been cheated on, you know that there aren’t a whole ton of worse experiences. I think most of us would probably rather go skinny dipping at the north pole than ever again experience the pain that comes from being on the victim end of infidelity. And if you’re the cheater? Well as long as you’ve got a...
For many of us, the idea of a paternity test has been reduced to a sort of “You are NOT the father!” Maury-style-daytime-talk-show meme. A punchline, almost. But for many, dealing with these things is a harsh reality; and there’s pretty much never been an instance where one is required that didn’t have some strongly...
Our nation’s greatest poet Freddy Mercury once said, “Fat bottom girls, you make the rockin’ world go round.” What exactly he meant by that is still being studied by scholars to this day, but catchy-as-hell songs aside, what’s it really like to navigate this world as a bigger woman? How does it affect, for instance,...
Let’s talk about talking. Specifically, the “talking” phase of a dating relationship. It’s sort of hard to define what it even is, but the general consensus is that it’s the part where a couple of people haven’t really committed to each other in any concrete way, but are clearly interested and getting to know...
Let’s talk about sex; a thing which I definitely do a whole lot and am very good at. I know all the parts. I got all the moves. The kissy part, the touchdowns, the…lunch…break. All of it. I’m a real good sex person and you can ask anybody I’ve ever smushed tummies with. So you can imagine my surprise that there are...
