1. Thank you for giving my horrible disorder a name.

A few years ago i found out that my lifelong balloon phobia has a name. I don’t feel so special anymore, and I’m still terrified of balloons. Lose-lose.
I thought of saying something like, “Remember, the balloons are more afraid of you than you are of them,” but...

Is it the lotus seed pods that are triggering you? I’m not trypophobic, but my grandmother had some of those (dried) in vases when I was younger and they distrubed me greatly.
Oh god yes, probably, that sounds right.

Concepts We Need to Create Words For

Coworkers with whom you’ve worked for several months and see daily, but never properly introduced yourself to.
When someone is speaking, you turn to a friend and make a face as to say “What the fuck is he talking about?” and you do not receive the “I know! Right?” response-look that you were expecting.
Feeling guilty about coming to like something you had previously mocked.

I do not care why you want an abortion. You want an abortion? That’s good enough for me.
I am so happy to have my tax dollars pay for it. I would rather help a struggling young woman pay for an abortion than a) more unnecessary construction near my house, b) more subsidies for the corn and soybean industry, c) more studies on whether this abstinence thing is going to kick in,...
A Question In "Dear Prudie" This Week
lazybookreviews:
“I recently caught my Sunday school class off-guard when Hurricane Katrina was brought up, AGAIN! (*Sigh*) I made it known that I have no sympathy for anyone that lost homes, lives, loved-ones, etc., when Hurricane Katrina hit. My reasoning: 99 percent of those people made a CHOICE to live in an area that they knew was prone to hurricanes. Therefore, it was my opinion that...

Matt did some sleuthing and found that the class in question from my last post was ENGLISH 261H Introduction to Fiction at The Ohio State University. Per the Winter 2009 syllabus:
In this course, we will identify some of literary fiction’s defining characteristics, including its uses of narrative voices to tell stories, its manipulation of time to depict its subjects, and its...

It doesn’t say anywhere on the “Alternative Documentation of Income” that you need to send in TWO pay stubs. Also: the very title of the form implies that this form is an alternative to a preferred method of documenting income—i.e., them getting off their stupid asses and requesting my tax info from the IRS, like the loan consolidation paperwork said they would.
OH MY GOD I...

I went off the Wellbutrin. It was making me constantly anxious and nauseated, and my doctor decided that the benefits weren’t worth it.

I’ve had really good results with Zoloft. It’s not really a noticeable effect but does give me that feeling of normalcy and the side effects were minimal for me.
TMI ALERT: Zoloft was the first drug I ever took. It helped with my depression and anxiety, but it made me gain weight like crazy and made it almost...

Have you tried Prozac? This stuff varies from person to person, but I’ve found it to be a pretty gentle drug compared to others.
No, I haven’t. The problem is that Celexa is supposed to be a pretty gentle drug. :P

Did you ever consider keeping the drugs out of your system for a while? Maybe a steady routine of exercise, a healthy diet, and some positive thinking?
If I wanted to be suicidal I would most certainly follow this advice.
Right, because POSITIVE THINKING can cure medical...

More Direct Loan Craziness!
Guess what: when I applied for my loan consolidation last year, they said they could ask the IRS how much I made, so sending in “proof of income” was optional.
Except it wasn’t! So I submitted it.
But now they’re claiming I didn’t! And I can’t afford my student loan payments! So… I called them up and had an aggravating little chat with one of their reps...
