Top threads this week

  1. My husband said he was sorry about my coworker's death. She was still alive.

    My husband, Dan, is not only a mumbler, but frustratingly apologetic. He's the kind of guy who says sorry when someone else bumps into him. He even says sorry to the dog when he steps over her. He...

  2. I had to shit in a water park slide.

    It's been nine days. My daughter is talking again, about school and the dog and what she wants for her birthday. Not about the slide. She's seven. This was the first summer she was tall enough for...

  3. Parents, listen to your children.

    I’m writing this from inside my car in a 7-Eleven parking lot. My son is in the passenger seat, buckled in, wrapped in his Power Rangers blanket. I haven’t been back inside the house since...

  4. I Go to Hell for Ten Minutes Every Night

    It happens every night at 1:18 am. I go to hell and then I’m back in my bed ten minutes later. My nightly jaunts were a source of daily horror when I was younger, but I’ve learned to live with it....

  5. The Six-Inch People Sewed Their Mouths Shut

    I assume most of you know what a Denen is. If you don’t, the short version is that they’re five-to-seven-inch primates native to North and South America, though established populations exist...

  6. My Husband and I went on a vacation last spring.  I can’t remember any of it.

    Hey guys. I’ve found out something really unsettling and I need some advice. Instead of retype my whole situation into a narrative I am just going to copy + paste some entries from my therapy...

  7. If you have been getting inexplicable back pain, please read this...

    &x200B; I’m not a doctor. I’m just a guy who spent three months getting chewed up by the market here. If you live in this city, you know the drill. You scroll through listings at 2:00 AM, wading...

  8. My Dad Keeps Calling Me From Work, But He Doesn't Know He's Doing It.

    My dad works night shifts at a warehouse about 30 minutes from our house. He's been doing it for years, so nobody in our family thinks much about his schedule anymore. Last Sunday, something...

  9. I worked overnights at a Ronald McDonald Foundation House. There are rules. I need somebody to tell me what I counted.

    Okay. I've started this post about nine times and deleted it about nine times so I'm just going to type and not look back, and if the commas end up in the wrong places that's between me and God. I...

  10. There is an impossibly tall man haunting my neighborhood.

    I was out for a walk one night recently, around 6pm. It was already dark, so I had a flashlight to make visibility easier. The route I take just goes around my block. It’s about a mile, and takes...
