Galaxy-brained poster claims that nobody with an 130+ IQ listens to music: ‘This is a lot of words to say you don’t understand music’
Throughout history, there have been many different ways that have been used to measure someone’s intelligence. Perhaps they can complete complicated algebra without a second thought, or they speak ten different languages.

Moms discuss whether working moms or stay at home moms criticize each other more heavily: ‘Women get shamed no matter what we do’
We as a society tend to think there are way more stay-at-home mothers than there actually are.

‘Your friends are selfish’: Fed-up friend makes plans for 7:30AM, claims that millennials ‘can’t wake up early’
Some people thrive in the morning. They wake up with energy, ready to tackle the day and all it may have in store. I think these people are lucky. Just because the rest of us have trouble waking up doesn’t mean we don’t want to. I’m aspirationally a morning person. It rarely works out, but …

‘Your sis had the golden goose of babysitters’: Stingy aunt charges teenage babysitter £20 for eating leftover cake
Unequivocally, to me, the best thing about birthdays is birthday cake. It’s the thing that turns a regular party with regular party snacks into a birthday party with a centerpiece of deliciousness.

‘I would knock on the door’: 15-year-friendship is jeopardized over a $60 DJ set
Friends and money are a tricky mix. We try our best to keep things fair and square, but if you’re hitting the town, it can be hard to keep things straight. I’ve found that the best path for me is not squabbling over anything under $20. And just try your best to keep things even …
