Living on your own opens up numerous opportunities which can range from choosing your own bedtime without judgment or to eating junk food all day, every day. You may even decide to start string together sentences that contain more swear words than what could come out of a trucker's mouth. While it's all fun and games for awhile, eventually you'll spend time around your parents again or get a job with small children in which it would be frowned upon to repeatedly drop the f bomb. I'm here to save your behind (not that other word you're used to using) and offer up some alternative words and phrases.

For insults and name calling:

1. Lint licker!

2. You fool of a Took!

3. Son of a dishwasher (watch "Robots" and you'll get it)!

4. Idiot.

5. Communist!

6. You dip!

7. You lying piece of trash!

8. Donald Trump!


For exclamations:

9. Blast!

10. Double blast!

11. Blast and drat!

12. Dag nab it!

13. Shucks!

14. Darn it!

15. Mother trucker!

16. Aw, fudgesicles!

17. I'm going to beat you with a stick!


When in doubt:

Go with unintelligible muttering. Imagine those cartoon characters with the overlapping lines drawn above their heads.

Create your own:

Just about every swear word has a harsh "ch," "sh," or "ck" sound. To avoid frowned upon language, try building your very own arsenal of fake cusses using those very same sounds!

birthday party

My birthday has never been my favorite holiday. I've found that I'm more excited to celebrate my friends' and family members' birthdays more than my own. I don't like being the center of attention, so I usually celebrate over dinner with a small group of family and friends. This way, I can enjoy myself naturally without feeling like I have to entertain everyone and make sure they are satisfied. In the past when I've had large parties, I was so nervous that people weren't perfectly content that I didn't enjoy myself at my own celebration.

College Informations

Most of us have already started the spring semester, and for those of you who haven't started yet, you suck.

It seems like coming back from winter break wouldn't really be a break all things considered, since we all come back to school and pick up right where we left off. We know exactly what to expect, yet we're unprepared every single time.

I'm serious

There are tons of unisex names that are popular: Taylor, Alex, Bailey, etc. There are also numerous names that are used for both sexes, but they’re not seen as “unisex” yet. People are slowly becoming accustomed to the dual use of these names, but for the most part, in their minds they associate certain names with certain sexes. And that leaves those of us with these names in many awkward situations.
