On A Thread That Is Open

I think I did something dumb, but I'm not sure. I just got an Ann Taylor Loft card. It's the only store I shop at and I don't have any other store cards. I have one other credit card that I just paid off so now I don't have any credit card debt. I was at Loft buying a skirt for work and the clerk did her whole spiel about how I could save 20% if I applied and then she went on to say that they send out special email coupons, you get 10% off the first Tuesday of every month, and some other stuff. I thought about it and figured that since it's the only store I shop at, it would be worth it. I don't buy a lot of clothes to begin with, but I'd like to save money when I do. Loft always has crazy sales so now I'd be saving even more. This was a good decision right?

On WWYD: A Job After Graduation

Take the job, it's not permanent, you can always quit if you get a job in your field. Just make sure you give notice. Don't ever not give notice though. You don't want to burn any bridges this early on in your career.

On Talking About Being Cash Poor

I suffer from this too. When I'm home alone eating rice cakes with peanut butter, I remind myself that it's just this one weekend and I'll have money to go out again soon. There are lots of nights out waiting for me when I can afford them.

On A Friendly Chat With a Rich Person

@aetataureate This is the first I’ve heard of sexism being involved with vocal fry, so yes, I guess I do need to do some reading. But there wasn’t any sexism in my comment at all. I’m really put off that Mallory attacked me like this for no reason so I’m just going to stop reading and commenting on this site period because it’s not the first time she’s done this to me. If she would've explained vocal fry and sexism instead of attacking me, I would feel differently. But like I said, this isn't the first time she has done this and I've seen it happen to others. I don't read and comment here to be attacked. I didn't realize this was Gawker.

On A Friendly Chat With a Rich Person

@TARDIStime I get annoyed when women talk like this in real life. It makes them sound stupid and when I read things written this way, the vocal-fry comes oozing off the page. I always imagine these posts are written in a high school cafeteria somewhere.

On This Is Exhausting

@Logan Sachon I kind of agree? But I think there are worse things you could be wasting your money on than food. A girl's gotta eat.

On WWYD: A Former Co-Worker's Private Correspondence

Those chats have been read and reread by your coworkers at this point, but I wouldn't do it unless that person was REALLY interesting or super hot.

On Wait You Don't Watch Hulu for the Commercials

Is it really that big of a deal to watch ads on Hulu? There's two maybe three tops. That's still a lot less than sitting through them on actual television. Not to mention, you're watching for free (unless you have Hulu Plus of course).
