Roast Edition: Why I Live For Those Awkward Moments
Wikipedia

What is better than seeing someone you slept with, out on the town with some new trick? Answer: A large sum of cash (probably because I’m not that lucky). Anything else, I would say the limit does not exist, isn’t that what Lindsay Lohan said? It doesn’t exist, at all; we can all agree that whenever you run into an awkward moment you are low key smiling about it, also while having the facial expression of looking constipated. Yes we are nervous, but we really don’t give a shit.

Awkward moments are vital to making sarcastic assholes like me; make fun of others like say our exes, or any other situation in general. Truth be told, there is nothing more awkward then when I oversaw a lady ask another lady where her husband was, and she responded “This is actually my wife.” No we aren’t laughing because this lady is a lesbian; let’s establish that before my sensitive generation starts crying. We are laughing because this other woman was dumb enough to think that everyone else was just like her. Probably in a shitty marriage, and having sex with her neighbor. In fact, that turns out to be more awkward then her harmless intent of asking someone if she had a husband.

I have concluded that everyone at some point lives this big giant awkward life and it starts when we are born. Let’s be honest here, how creepy are the freaking teletubbies and why the hell did some parents think these awkward aliens were entertaining? I get it; maybe they are a little funny sober or not, but only because they are awkward as hell. What’s even more awkward is being that kid who grew up watching PBS, when everyone else was watching Disney and Nickelodeon. This is a total 90’s kid problem, and if you don’t understand, then that is awkward. Did you grow up watching the wiggles or something? Or probably one of those good ole boy shows from way back when, you know the ones our elders talk about every day.

Life has absolutely blessed us all with these awkward moments. I think I live for it. Why make these situations worse then what it really is? In other words, why not just laugh at those horrible awkward moments rather then become offended? Life is way too short to be serious all the time, so I’ve chosen to embrace the awkwardness.

You will have to choose your own criteria for awkward moments, but if you’re like me, you laugh at anything and everything just because. There is nothing more liberating then feeling that tension in the room, all while keeping a smile on your face. Or that constipated look rather. You could make things awkward just by doing that. It’s easy to make the room full of awkward looks and people. Just remember the lady addressing the lesbian in the room. I’m sure she felt really awkward.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
