thinking about the time when I was getting scolded as a kid and my mom said she'd leave me in the woods if I lied. My city girl ass stopped crying and turned to look at her like, "We live in a metropolis. You don't know any woods."

I have the spirit of someone who wants to sing all the lyrics to a song but the memory of someone who can barely remember the first name of a recurring character in my life who I haven’t talked to in two days

I never know whether to open up the photos linked on erotica. There’s a chance that they’ll be really hot but there’s also a chance that they’ll be just as disappointing as those photos in the end credits of a biopic of the real, much uglier people who inspired it.

I once wrote a short story and knew I did a good job with my protagonist because a classmate hated her guts. The character had my personality. That classmate and I did not like each other.
