On Breaking Up Is Hard to Do With Dignity
@teenie Oh god yes change your hair. Dye it. Get those bangs you were thinking about but weren't 100 percent sure on. I cut off eight inches of hair after a break-up. Guess what? I looked adorable.
Also, promise yourself that you are not going to be bitter and petty because you are STRONGER and MORE MATURE than that. Then torch everything he ever gave you/left behind. Or pawn it for more cheap wine!

Is it a little odd that the article uses full names of the child and mom? I would be mortified if I were that little girl.

@vanillawaif No shit. I guess it just doesn't work for everyone. I was on it for three months before demanding to go on antibiotics instead.

I will say that Madonna's hair in this video is so flowy and perfect; it's my dream hair.

On How the Internet Changed Solo Travel
Traveled to Cambodia and Vietnam alone. Seriously had the best time, and I am pretty shy so most of it was spent solo. Plus there is a sense of "I did this all by myself!" accomplishment. The author is spot on with the biggest benefit - you get to do whatever the hell you want, whenever the hell you want. Want to sleep in and watch crappy movies instead of going to the Louvre? Shop instead of seeing another old church? Yeah, do that. No one has to know, even. In terms of safety, I just treat it like being in a slightly shady neighborhood and act accordingly. I kind of suck at guidebooks, so I just stayed at smaller hotels and asked the staff for recommendations. (One of the best parts of my trip: telling a Cambodian where I was from and trying to explain snow to him.) HAVE FUN!

On The Best Time I Occupied Wall Street
I work in enterprise technology. At the trade shows, you often see companies luring poor bastards to their booths via scantily-clad women. We call them Booth Babes. It actually got bad enough that some of the big shows outlawed the use of Booth Babes. I'm going to go wash my hands a thousand times now.

@teenie I once threw a box of letters and pictures into a river. Agree, it felt awesome.
