Do You Know What Causes Sulfur Burps?
It happened again last night: sitting outside, enjoying the evening when all the sudden burp. But this wasn’t the normal “excuse me” burp. This was sulfur, bubbling up from the depths of hell and escaping from my mouth. My eyes widened as both the taste and smell hit, and I said a little prayer of gratitude that no one else was sitting outside with me. Then I remembered that these burps never come in sets of one. It was going to be a long night. So, what causes sulfur burps? We don’t have them every day, so it’s not like this is a normal bodily function or something. Why do we…

To The Guy Who Shouted “Whale” At Me While I Was Walking
Thank you for making me feel even shittier and more self-conscious than I already did about taking my fat ass out in public. It’s like you somehow instinctively knew that comparing my body in lycra to the giant of the sea would make things all the better. Sure, I’d been stressed about going out in the first place because of fellas like you with your big loud trucks and those fake testicles hanging off the hitch. I saw you high-fiving your buddy in the bitch seat so I bet he was super impressed with your observational skills and ability to suss out the proper response to seeing a fat woman…

I Just Saw A Star Is Born, And Now I Need Therapy
I shouldn’t have to say this (because from the title it should be inferred), but this post is basically one big ol’ gigantor ‘spoiler’, and if you proceed you are doing so at your own risk. Literally, all I’m going to do is spoil spoil spoil A Star is Born, because that movie ripped my freaking heart out and now I need a hug, a snuggly blanket, and long-term, expensive therapy. You have been warned. I Just Saw A Star Is Born, And Now I Need Therapy To begin, I never saw the previous incarnations of A Star is Born. In fact, until last night I had no idea there…

5 Ways To Survive The Holidays If You’re Single
Nine months out of the year being single is amazing. You get to date who you want, when you want. You get to go to pound-town with whomever, or hang out with your B.O.B. if that’s what you want. Walking around the house wearing nothing but ripped underwear, and socks that have foxes on them, and eating Haagen-Dazs Rum Raisin ice cream right out of the pint is no big deal because no one’s there to judge you. And yes, Rum Raisin is the best ice cream. But when you’re dating? You have to debate those things. And who wants to debate when there’s new episodes waiting to be binged on Netflix?…

5 Reasons To Never Ever Double-Dip
Once upon a time he was your everything. The two of you made all the girly, silly selfies together. He met your friends – they didn’t hate him. You met his mom – she totally hated you. But, it was okay. Because he was still your everything. Until he wasn’t. And once things ended it was like your entire world shrank without notice. Suddenly avocado toast didn’t taste as good anymore. And that hand-sewn journal he got you for Christmas? Yeah, you can’t even look at it without crying. Every day feels like your world has been shrink-wrapped and like your life is getting smaller and smaller. Then he calls…

Am I The Only One Feeling Pokemon-Go Guilt?
So a couple of days ago Pokemon-Go came out, and social media went insane. Instead of the normal horrifying news, all I see in my feed are people catching Pokemon (is that what they’re even called?) and all these awesome stories of the cool things that have happened because of it. Not only that, but my closest friends all keep asking if I’m playing or not, and the truth is – I’m not. I don’t know why I’m not wanting to participate in Pokemon-Go, but the guilt is starting to overwhelm me! Am I The Only One Feeling Pokemon Go Guilt? Tonight I read a story posted by one of my…
