Whoever made this “Ginger Zinger” trail mix is my hero. It’s like it was made for me. No fillers, just a ton of nuts and dried berries and a bunch of crystallized ginger.

90% of my friends have moms who ~jokingly~ called them “thunder thighs” in junior high, or told them not to eat carbs or they’d get fat, or some other horseshit.

stop. stop it. no.

this is coming from someone whose mother was 130lbs and went on 30-day long juice fasts, to lose weight as fast as possible because she thought she was obese. and then trying to put me (age 12) on one, before my father intervened.

SO LET’S NOT.

My parents were fine, but my grandparents are/were horrible. My grandma gave me a spanx type top for Christmas when I was like 13. I wasn’t skinny and I never have been, but I certainly wasn’t fat. She also sent my mom a BOX of used diet cook books out of the blue once. My mom, who struggled with her weight her entire life and eventually got a gastric bypass… And once when I was maybe 12, I was at my grandparents’ house and I took a mini brownie from a container in the kitchen and my grandpa told me I didn’t want to “grow up to be fat like my mom”. COOOL. This same grandpa was also a horrible alcoholic and literally drank himself to death. How about you keep your fucking health suggestions to yourself.

Dave and Buster’s better live up to my slightly above average expectations.

You know that commercial for some anti depressant where depression is represented by a mangy-looking bathrobe? How accurate.
