1. As a big girl myself, let me tell you there are a lot of men who are into bigger women, they just don't want their friends to know. To the other big girls out there: date someone who isn't ashamed to be seen with you in public. Its such a low bar, You deserve that. You aren't shameful or less than.

2. That was exactly how my first PAP went, if that was that mothers I think she needs to go back cause she has a problem.

3. I hate that The Event got canceled after one season. What is the event? Is this the event? No, we actually only ever FINALLY saw the EVENT start happening….then it died

4. For the tv show thing: Surface
   It got canceled right as it got to the best part

5. Not the “craziest” lie my parents ever told me but the one that most comes to mind. I must’ve been about five or six years old and still believed the whole “cooties” thing except my mom had put a twist on it and made it sound more like herpes. I believed that if a boy kissed me I would get a sore on my lips and then everyone would know I had kissed a boy and I was terrified. Around that age, i was at a friends family’s house for a gathering. I wanted to be alone so I went into her room and shut the door to play with her toys. Her older brother came in (he must’ve been late teens at the time) and sat down on her bed and began talking to me whilst I played. Eventually he asked me to come over and he held me close to him. He then asked me if he could kiss me. I then informed him of cooties and how mad my mom would be. He tried convincing me that it wasn’t true but I wasn’t having it. After awhile he got frustrated and just felt me up I guess? The memories are fuzzy. I remember feeling gross and knowing it was wrong. He stood and hugged me and I remember feeling something hard against my face. I didn’t know at the time but I still remember how nauseated I felt. After it happened and my mom picked me up, I remember being in the car in the driveway and sheepishly telling her while holding back tears. She didn’t say anything and I never heard anything about it again. I remember I was wearing a purple velvety dress that day, and as I got older I would refuse to ever wear it again and would feel a pit in my stomach when I saw it.

6. on movies, i have a friend who is creeped out by david bowie because of Labyrinth, i have to be careful on what i watch with them

7. 21:13
   let me guess, a catholic town (the toxic kind, aka people who will say you'll go to hell because you made 1 mistake)

8. The worst way in my opinion to break up with someone is because they are too sick (medical wise) and are way too tired to talk every day. I went through this in either freshman or sophomore year at high school (21f) with several health and suffering from HSP, pneumonia, AND valley fever. He asked me out to prom, and I got peer pressured into being his girlfriend by others in student government. There were days when my mom had to tell him I was sleeping during the day while in the hospital. He broke up with me a few months after prom and told me he was going to break up with me over text but decided not to. I held my tears while on the call, but afterward, I just cried. Not because I loved him but because he wanted to do it over text. There were days I tried to talk to him, and he ignored me. Please note that this was in online school pre covid and barely had any friends because of my medical conditions. I'm thankful that I have better friends now, and they worry about me when I am silent for a few days. On a lighter note, I've realized what love feels like and am struggling to tell one of my friends, the first one I made in my friend group, that I like him. I get so worried since I've told him before, and it was the day after he broke up with his ex the first time. Sorry if this is long.

9. I was and am a supportive parent. Yea my oldest did some stupid shit, but she knew even though I was disappointed, I wouldn't get angry enough to harm her. I would work through it with her because she was my baby and I only wanted her happy, healthy and safe.

10. Pls never get the depo shot I was on it and have been bleeding for two years. One year it was nonstop this year it’s been mostly going but somewhat off and on

11. Oh man invader zim that thing was sick and loved him and Daria and Beavis and Butt-head pure genius…oh btw if anyone wants to know what became of Earl… he's actually a co owner of the barley and board restaurant in north Texas..the food stinks but its cool Jason lee ended up in peehole Tx..

12. Crap my mom was amazing she had the talk with me like at 12 but she'd explain what VD & STI/STD was and tell me need further explanation ask the school nurse.. and she was friends with my 5th grade teacher and she took me aside and said welcome to woman hood and made sure it was where the class beavis and Butt-heads couldn't make fun of me and she told me its perfectly normal and your ma already oked teen mydol and a monthly excuse from gym..but my mom was like play it safe and one day your going to be a Teenager and beavis and butthead are going to be your first boyfriends and if you end up in the back of an el camino and wind up a teen mom we'll be there to support you dad and I..i wasn't exactly kelly bundy I was more Daria and her Side kick..but my mom being a very mild peggy Bundy type she understood being a teenager and allowed me to know what was appropriate for my age and asked me the righ questions and crap she couldn't answer she told me talk to the school nurse..and when it came to the womens health Dr. She just told me what to expect and suck it up and take it like a woman this is your life for the next 30 years lol i was about 15 and afterwards we had Taco Bell and mom was like now you earned your pms card use it well and enjoy the ride lol..

13. Blunt Talk, starring Sir Patrick Stewart. Comedy GOLD!

14. Haha cable and dish and these stupid streaming services are why I enjoyed paying like 15$ for an antenna and enjoy 60 channels for free 😅

15. The worst one was probably not a lie I specifically got told, but rather one I wound up bolstering and helping to perpetuate. When I was in middle school, about 12 or so, I was in a HORRIFIC car wreck. A high-speed rollover on the highway. I literally got thrown through the passenger's window (breaking my right shoulder), got sliced up pretty bad by glass (especially in the face) and I received some impact/whiplash injuries plus a concussion. My head swelled up about twice its normal size, I needed A LOT of stiches, and was hospitalized for 11 days. My stepmom literally broke her neck, thankfully it healed. My father broke a toe and got some incredibly minor cuts on his hands, then he climbed from the wreckage, and was later discharged from the hospital the same day. They tell me to this day that I'm incredibly lucky I wasn't chopped in half by the rolling vehicle, didn't get a traumatic brain injury from the impact, or lose an eye to the glass. Apparently, the statistical probability of surviving such an event with survivable, non-life changing injuries is extraordinary low/rare.

    The big lie, however, has always been the cause of the wreck. Insurance paid out pretty well. I was awarded $4.2k a year for 4 years, starting on my 18th birthday. I have no idea what sort of compensation my former stepmom got. My father started telling folks pretty quickly afterward that the accelerator stuck when he went to get on the interchange ramp, which connects 485 with I-77. The truth is actually that my former stepmom and him had a rather volatile relationship, they fought often and BAD. She was already super mad at my father that day, not sure quite why. Then she caught me getting mad at the computer and smacking the keyboard. She then focused her previous rage towards me. She yanked me up, called my father, and demanded he discipline me. He came home and said he was taking me to my mother's. I guess my stepmom didn't want to let him get away from her furious wrath so quickly/easily. So she DEMANDED to come along for the ride. We climbed in the vehicle, and after about a block, their previous fight started back up. By the time we were getting on the highway, they were yelling and screaming at one another. At one point my father made some snarky verbal retort, and in response, my (British and usually formal/proper)
    stepmom in the backseat reached up and started trying to hit my father (the driver) in the head. In response, he accelerated from around 80mph to over 100mph. I guess he figured driving dangerously or aggressively would scare her and make her recognize he was ultimately controlling the vehicle. I was freaking out and undid my seatbelt because I was planning to crawl into the backseat but before I had a chance, we spun out. The top heavy SUV (Ford Explorer) spun roughly 3 time, then hit the grass median and flipped, rolling another 4 times. I was thrown on the 3rd roll.

    I was never explicitly pressured or coached into perpetuating my father's "version" of events. Shortly after all that, I went to go live full-time with my mother. She was worried about the environment at my father's home, and my stepmom saw me as competition for resources (primarily $) against her 3 sons (despite the fact that they were all only stepsons to my father and I'm his only blood heir). I wound up primarily using my father's "stuck accelerator" story because, as a child, I believed that the whole accident was ultimately MY FAULT. I didn't know at the time that my stepmom and father had been arguing/fighting on the phone for over 2 hours before I came into the picture. From my point of view, I hit the keyboard, got caught, my stepmom was enraged (I assumed over my actions), and that caused us all to nearly die in the end. Plus, I thought that I had been basically kicked-out of my father's home or abandoned by him because I caused the wreck. I even wrote apology letters to my father and stepmom, and even after that, nobody ever explained the reality of the situation to me until I was in my mid-20s. I did still see my father occasionally in my teens, he'd take me out to lunch or a movie on Friday's, but it was pretty clear thst he was doing this behind my (at the time) stepmom's back. We eventually reconnected after they split for good, when I was 23.

    Long story short, my former stepmom and my father almost got me and themselves killed (and seriously injured), and then taught me to lie about their roles in the event by letting me believe I had caused it.

16. I wish Netflix didn't cancel Inside Job, it's such a funny show just from the first ten episodes. I love how it uses the stupid conspiracy theories as a main part of it, I also really loved how Reagan was just a relatable character for me. I really hope Netflix reconsiders and brings it back.

17. My answer to the first bit of the compilation would be living, like the older I get, the less I wanna live or be alive

18. I fully agree with the (first one? Can’t remember, and I’m too lazy to go back to check) internet one.. my sisters are absolutely p*ssed that The Bad Guys doesn’t show up on Netflix anymore.
    I just checked to confirm, and yes indeed, it didn’t show up.
    Betcha it’s only a matter of time before they remove The Sea Beast, which I actually enjoy that one XD

19. The most wtf ending was Sausage Party for me, lol. In hindsight, the name was the tip off. Still, RIP to the parents who ignored the maturity ratings, and took their kids to see it anyway.

20. The worst thing for a child isn’t the punishment- but their parents anger. Having a clear system of actions have specific consequences help a lot! Like- my punishments growing up was getting walloped by a belt.. I didn’t care about physical wounds, what I cared more was my father telling me he was disappointed.

21. Never had cable
    I watched the free to air tv
    So i went from that straight to streaming
    $60 a month for disney channel and a bunch of sporting crap was not worth it
    Especially nowadays when disney + is much cheaper and on demand

22. I don't know if population density really has much to do with the level of noise. I do believe there are other contributing factors. For example, I live in Nashville. We don't have nearly the population other larger cities have, only a couple million. They do not live downtown. Only recently, past 10 yrs or so, has apartment living became a thing downtown. High rise after high rise. Still the majority doesn't live down there. You know where our noise comes from… Broadway. Nashville doesnt sleep. Honky tonks are open until the wee hours of the morning. Empty or not, the bars are hopping. It has always been that way cause you know, country music. Stadium concerts are heard for miles. Years and years and years. Wanna know who's trying to put a stop to the noise….the new transplants living in the high rises. Nashville built a new amphitheater several years ago, transplants in the high rises complain and complain. The transplants who not only moved to music city but moved straight to the heart are now trying to stab us right where it hurts.

23. I loved watching My Name is Earl when I was younger. I was less than 10 at the time so I remember almost nothing of it and was too young to understand it but it was a great show to watch in the mornings before I had to go to school. Well it was either that or My Little Pony

24. My parents said that there wasn't any money for things. And it was true…until my Dad got an amazing job that made a ton of money. They just kept saying it though, and when I was in my early teens I figured out the truth. My mom was taking multiple trips to exotic locals, and purchasing useless, expensive, decorations. Meanwhile I was so hungry at school that I had begun eating paper out of my notebook in class, because my parents said we couldn't afford the school lunches (they were a $1.25) and sent me to school with not enough food to feed a growing boy. The school tried putting me on a meal assistance program, but it was rejected because my Dad was making more than enough money to afford school lunches.

    Anyways, by parents got called in to the school, because there are always extenuating circumstances that could make it seem like you have a lot of money but don't. When my mother, who was raised with a silver spoon in her mouth, was asked about me being placed on a meal assistance program because we might be poor, she audibly gasped. To her, appearances are everything, and the very idea of appearing to be poor because her son was hungry was mortifying. They began paying for my lunches after that, but would continue using the excuse that they couldn't afford to get me nice things, or send me to college, because they didn't have enough money. 🙄 20 years on, and they've never apologized or explained themselves.

25. what game is in background?

26. I figured out in my adulf life the truth without my parents telling them…

    Even my dad hiding my stuffed elephant that always jumped on him…
