Relationship satire can be cathartic; when love hurts too much, just laugh.
5 Ways to Train a Wolf
When training a wolf it is important that you reach the status of the alpha. You may not be comfortable with that. But you must get over your fear of being assertive immediately. This is not easy. Do you want to be loved or do you want to be eaten? I know. Tricky question. Please refer to the SELF ESTEEM post that I haven’t written yet.

Ten Reasons Why You Need a Straight Pride Parade
Dear Readers, It took me a while to write this. Not sure why; sometimes I blame work. But I thought I would do it before Pride Month ends. As someone who grew up in a divided household, this is targeted to those special individuals that have not felt safe due to being around what they call a social epidemic, The Gay Agenda. I know, not only do they have a whole month to brainwash our children, they also get to be gay for the rest of their lives. Who would have thought being gay was not just a phase? It is becoming the new norm and you, the Straights, feel you need the same rights. Please, refer to this article whenever you feel like explaining your Straight Pride.

Geometric Shapes
So, for some reason, I have always found myself in the middle. Quite honestly, once you’re in the middle it feels like there’s no going back. You really can’t find a way to escape from what essentially, you put yourself into. Life sucks that way sometimes. For instance, when you were younger and your friends used to be in a bit of a tiff, and it always ended up with you having to choose a side. Like dude, why would you do that to me? Rude. In my case, I tend to stay neutral. Basically, what I’m trying to say is I completely abort the situation. I run the other direction. No shame. This tactic I have acquired has helped me more times than I wish to admit, but hey at least I got out. When I say “got out,” I mean I let the scenario dissipate in a way. It’s a blessing. So this may all sound a bit confusing. What is she talking about, you might ask. I simply mean the good ole “love triangle.” In my case it has ended up being a love rhombus, hexagon, maybe even an octagon. All of the geometric shapes. And now, the good stuff begins.

Millennials Next Target
Millennials. Is there nothing these pesky "young adults" won't try to ruin? First, they get married and stay married. Who told them that this was OK? Divorce was invented so that we didn't have to stay with one partner anymore. This is what our forefathers wanted for us. The ability to divorce and to have Donald Trump as President. He says the things that we wish we could like "covfefe." Brilliant. But Millennials don't like him either because they don't like nice things. Now, they have a new target in their sights and plan on destroying an industry that only makes billions of dollars a year: The wedding industry!

But It Could Be
It was my fourth birthday party. Everybody was there. It was a few months before my parent's separation, so they were still living in the same house. All of my cousins, both of my grandmothers and one of my grandfathers, uncles, and aunts. Everyone. That was the last time I had a birthday party with everyone together. I had a huge Barbie birthday cake and it was the best thing I had ever seen. Everyone had sung "Happy Birthday" and I had just blown out the candles when my brother stood up on the chair next to me and slammed his face into the cake before I could eat any of it. My dad went out and got a regular one from the store, but it just wasn't the same as my big Barbie one.

I Have a Really Nice Ass
I always took an extra 15 minutes to make sure my eyeliner was as even as possible and my eyelashes weren't clumpy in the slightest. I wore my retainer every night so my teeth stayed straight, and I always used whitening strips on the weeks I drank coffee. I glued on fake nails so often that I went through three tubes of glue since school started.

Henry VIII's Letter to an Agony Aunt
I've been doing some short writing courses since last year and one piece of homework we've been given is to write is King Henry VIII's letter to an agony aunt. I've always been immersed in the Tudor Era like many other people so I felt it was right up my street.

6 Types of People You Will See on Valentine's Day
Valentine's Day: The time of year when the universe celebrates the obvious timely successes of Purdys, Hallmark, and Kleenex. In the advanced world of social media, it is this such once-a-year date that V-Day stomps into our lives with its Godzilla-sized foot, putting its scaly pressure on the boyfriends of the world to get their sh*t together without the help of Netflix-and-Procrastination, while the girlfriends of the world are pushed to post their cheesiest, most red-heart-filled photos showing just how in love they are with their masculine counterparts. Now, we all know how difficult it can be to navigate the dangerous waters of Valentine's Day. So, to make everyone's lives just a bit easier and perhaps also to prepare you for what's in store this chocolate-decorated season, I've compiled an organized list of creatures you might come across this V-Day for you to keep an eye on. Bonus points if you can spot one of each this 14th of Feb.

Leftover Disappointment
Good Morning Readers, This juicy insider has some fried chicken to serve up this morning, and it isn’t KFC! Could it be that dating and compatibility can both be mutually exclusive, yet somewhat genetic and perhaps astrological? Nevertheless, this dance danced, was more of a step, than a step-touch. Though in the life of a single gay millennial, craving more than what the present situation offers, dating today, still seems to be somewhat complicated for me, an empath. Thus, other than taking myself out for a drink and a writing session -like I normally would, this "potential-guy" implanted a desire in me to go outside my bubble of comfort, for a little real-life interaction. I log into SCRUFF yet again... was I to experience a pleasure or the joke of the week? Hoping he’d say he’s too busy to meet, he contrarily and overzealously, like a cartoon character dashing in speed, with a cloud of smoke left behind, races to the bar.

5 Ways to Defeat the Millennial
Often painted as overbearing, self-centered, Wi-Fi obsessed, generational monsters… We found the problem child: The Millennial. What do we do when the fabric of America is now in the hands of people who say your outfit is “on fleek,” or always want someone to “spill the tea?” Can we agree that “shade” should come from trees and not disgruntled naysayers?
