My friend’s finace has started a tumblr about the ridiculous shit thrust upon women in the name of your SPECIAL DAY OMGOMG!!!!

I have never understood why people lose their fucking minds when it comes to weddings – I think it might have something to do with the lack [...]
Last night I woke up to an earthquake at 4am. I went back to sleep right away – half of my brain thinking “Enh, that happens here, no biggy,” as the other half thought “Wait, that’s ok with you?! You want to MOVE here???”
I can’t say that that was the first time I’ve been shaken [...]
I don’t get why adults like to dress children up like brides and grooms and take pictures. Or rather, I don’t get why they stop there. When I have kids I’m going to dress them up as all the stills from Revolutionary Road.
I used to have panic attacks on trash day when I was a kid. I would hear the truck rumbling down our block at 6am and suddenly realize that I hadn’t done any arts and crafts projects with last Sunday’s Family Circus. That could have been an amazing placemat for my grandparents! Shit! “I really [...]

I am constantly confused by people walking INFURIATINGLY slow in front of me on New York City streets. Today, in an effort to distract myself from the overwhelming urge to murder the tourists crawling down Broadway in front of me, I tried to think of reasons why these people move so slowly.
They are detectives looking for [...]
A while back I was performing at a stand up show where one of the other comics decided to forgo his set and instead just list the women in comedy that he has thought about while beating off. (Which, at a “downtown comedy” show is really just about the same thing. ) He included me [...]
I have never been good with girls.
When I was in first grade, at St. Catherine’s all-girls school, I had an imaginary friend named Anne Sidney Davenport. She was good at tennis and ballet and had long wavy blond pigtails like a cocker spaniel, i.e. she was perfect. I didn’t play with her that much, but [...]
