If you were the kid who galloped everywhere she went, or the one who brought home every furry vagrant that came across his path, these books are for you.
When you spend 13 years or more writing essays for district writing assessments about "hot topics" that are older than you, it's easy to feel like writing is just something English majors do between flipping burgers. Here's why you should write stuff down anyway.
Some of those books you missed in high school might actually change your life now, or at least give you a new perspective on situations that seemed less relatable at an age when farting was quality comedy.
I asked my mom once, when I was little, why musicians were allowed to use bad grammar in their songs (specifically, I think it was the word "ain't" in a country song). She told me they were using artistic license. For YEARS, I thought that meant they had to apply for a physical license…
She didn’t dance. She’d do a phrase or two with her backup dancers, then just stand there. There’s an entire song where she’s hoisted in a harness and therefore immobile. All she should be doing is singing, but she even lip-synced that song. There was an audible difference between…

I'd be more impressed if I hadn't watched her lip-sync her way through her concert in Vegas. We left early because we figured if we wanted to listen to the recorded version of her songs, we could do that for free at home, with booze we didn't pay $20a shot for. I've got nothing against…
Hey, Buzzfeed: I read the description for Pure Genius and watched the trailer but couldn't for the life of me figure out what a veterinarian had to do with the plot. I Googled it and now I wonder...is it possible you meant "veteran surgeon," as the CBS description says, rather than…
I mean, lots of things are awkward but that doesn't mean parents shouldn't be talking to their kids. Discussing underage drinking is awkward but parents should still do it.
