truth bombs

And I'm sort of extending what you're saying into like "arranging your brunch plate with Instagram in mind"

that's actually a pretty decent analogy

kids : brunch :: parents : yelpers

idk i was always a big reader so i think i sort of had some idea that everything i did aka an 'experience' had some kind of future purpose like that at least in the back of my mind, like it would inform writing about it later in some way

This is like the other side of engaging in intentionally reckless behavior (dating highly unsuitable people, for instance) in order to weather oneself while still young and fresh. Is this what young people do now? No more self-destruction?

the self-destruction and "redemption" goes into the college essay

wow, they're on a quick cycle, aren't they. what happens when they reach the ancient age of 35?

Ask Stevie Nicks.

aha, it's all coming together

mental breakdowns, throwing phones at cops

i am in college right now but didn't have to write an essay, they still admit people based on legacy here thank god

You're in Canada iirc? I didn't think legacy was a thing here? Centralized computerized admissions based on hs report cards sounds about right.

cargo pants are great for when you reaaaaally need to carry a bunch of jewels and you're in a hurry

feel like ilx has been surprisingly good on that account lately

i do feel like some (most) of the people posting these things probably only really have trouble finding parking spaces or a good mocha latte and never actually have to climb insurmountable mountains of adversity. but what do i know, maybe they do. but if they do why are they on facebook so much? they should be outside climbing mountains of turmoil or something.

otm

Hilary next

If a woman was prez next the right's heads would collectively explode.

idk, feel like electing a white person would feel a lil like backsliding at this stage tbh

controversial ethnic group white people have long been a force in american politics

who doesnt need a good ethnic white

when you think about it, it's also kind of amazing that even the GOP (or a segment of it) pushed hard for a black presidential candidate this year. Sure, it was mostly out of a misguided attempt to seem *not racist* and to get like 2 black people to vote for them, but still.

he was at no point a real candidate, that was just tv

yeah. but even the fact that the GOP did it as theater is a kind of step forward

I mean I guess no moreso than Alan Keyes, but it's still a long way from the 1950s

ya I mean no more lynchings but putting a crazy black guy on t and pretending to support him isn't 'not racist'...it's actually probably the opposite

on tv

it took me a min to even remember who you guys were talking abt, its been a long campaign man, long campaign

I like how politics talk has even invaded the truth bomb thread, as if the other 5 weren't enough. we should colonize more.

those ones where they poll unrelated bands could prob use some politics

it took me a min to even remember who you guys were talking abt, its been a long campaign man, long campaign

no shit....i thought about rick perry the other day, and those crazy ass debates with 12 lunatics onstage seem like decades ago

Gay Iranian female for prez!

unfortunately i was not born here

This format is my favourite UK football mockery.

i never heard any woman of any age ever express any envy that katie holmes was with tom cruise, not one, most of them sounded worried and some shuddered if the topic arose, so i think that church lawyer might be overestimating what a catch the entire world thinks he is.
