'Honestly, I'd buy a second 12 foot skeleton'

Not acceptable

It's important to split chores evenly with your partner. That's simple when it comes to stationary things, like washing dishes, cleaning the toilet, or sweeping the floor, but when you have to take care of a living being , things get more complicated. Animals require around-the-clock care. You have to feed them twice a day and take them out to go to the bathroom several times a day. My parent's dogs get up super early because my dad is an early riser who is willing to feed them at 5 or 6 AM. Th…

What ever happened to just asking for a girl's number?

Marriage isn't always all it's cracked up to be. It's magical and wonderful if you're with the right person, but it can be devastating if you make the wrong choice. The crazy thing about it is you can rarely gauge whether someone will be a good husband or wife before you're married. There are married couples who did everything right, waited an appropriate amount of time before getting married, lived together before getting married, and still ended up getting divorced. Sometimes, you don't reali…

I'm a writer who doesn't procrastinate…mostly. When I have a work or school deadline, I cannot procrastinate. The words need to get onto the page one way or another. It doesn't matter if the words are brilliant or foolish ; they're getting written either way. That's all well and good for writing when the alternative is negative consequences. When it comes to my own personal projects, however, that's a different story. When you're writing a novel or a short story solely for your own sick satisfa…

Mind your own business

Elevators are one of the most uncomfortable social environments the public has to offer. You're trapped in a tube with a bunch of strangers. You're packed incredibly closely with people of all different hygienic statuses. Worst of all, you're supposed to stay silent to avoid making people uncomfortable. Everybody's already uncomfortable in an elevator, and casual conversation is unlikely to solve this problem. If there's one thing I respect, it's the ability to clear out a crowded elevator . El…

Anyone who has applied for a job in the past couple of years knows it's a very tricky process. So much goes into job hunting, and it's not as simple as being the most qualified person for a position. Job interviews sometimes feel like they're taking place in an alternate reality; how you articulate yourself must be carefully curated to make you sound like a good worker. It's unnatural, but it's a bare necessity if you're going to get a job. With remote work becoming far more common, competition…

This can't be legal

Life can change in an instant. Sometimes, you see tragic things coming from miles away. If a loved one is slowly succumbing to an illness, it might not hurt so much when they die because at least you had time to prepare for the inevitable emotionally. But when a death or a tragedy comes out of nowhere, the surprise of the occurrence can be extremely traumatic . You don't have to be a wreckless or clueless person to suffer in a horrible accident or have your life ruined instantly. These things c…

One of the hallmark hobbies of tweens is earnest creative writing. For some, they do so on places like fanfiction.net or Wattpad, where they can ship Drarry to their heart's content! Others try to write the Great American Novel, typing away at a word document that will probably never even be self-published on Amazon. Horror stories are their bread and butter for the edgier tweens of the world. So many of the most famous horror stories from Creepypasta were probably written by somebody no older…
