I think I must use Facebook differently than everyone who says they're life was better after they quit FB. I feel like it doesn't affect my life much.

I see my friend post fun stuff about their lives and I see my community complain about stuff in the community group. I also found out why the police are down the road etc.
Besides news comments, it's pretty tame.

Big celebs when they get bad plastic surgery. They're like "I love my new face" and I just don't buy it.
I do feel really bad when they over-do it due to all the pressure and then they're just trying to save face (pun intended) and make things feel okay... I guess I just hate when they get this hype and media support like "yes, their face is great! THIS IS WHAT IS HOT NOW!"
It makes me feel so crazy. Like what am I not understanding?

My wife's sister is getting married in Mexico and invited us all to her resort wedding. Now I like my SIL and her future husband, but the rest of my in-laws are terrible and all I can think is it's going to be the most money I've ever spent to not have fun.

Me and my wife either need to stay in the hotel room the entire time or pay for as many off-resort activities as we can to keep away from the rest of the family.

As a teen, I was so gay that I thought all men were pretending to like women to fit in. I could not even fathom how anyone couldn't be so horny over men that your knees tremble. Women did nothing for me. And my feelings were so overwhelming that it was hard to imagine the other guys feeling any other way.

I'll admit liking whiskey on the rocks or neat, but it has to be a high quality one.

I'll also admit it was an acquired taste.

The difference in energy of trying to force small talk, or just give me something to do is crazy. I can talk with the best of them, but if I don’t have a reason to you might as well give up because I will state at a walk for an hour rather than talk.

My 4 year old son drew a picture of me and him. It's horrible, but I love it. The fact he likes me enough to draw us together makes it worth framing his garage quality art.

I'm an English major word snob who loves Aesop Rock and all that other s@#t but you are damn right I zone out to mumble rap. The beats are fun and the performance tends to be energetic and that's all you need. I don't give a s@#t if it's not blowing my mind with layered meanings and metaphors.

Sometimes you just want to chill out and drink Miller Lite. You can't ONLY sit and sip Pliny the Elders and Dark Lord stouts.

Ok so I keep having this thought that what if nobody was actually religious. Like there’s people that pretend to be religious to avoid being made fun of and stuff right? But what if everyone was like that. And please don’t take this as disrespect for any religion.
