There’s an interesting term that’s come to my attention: serial monogamist. Apparently it just means a person who’s with a lot of people, but like, one at a time. Not much of a break in between. Now, every single time a relationship ends for me, I assume a new one will never arise and spend 2+ years practicing to be a monk, so...
When I say “popular girl” you can probably, without even trying, immediately call to mind someone from high school or middle school that you had very mixed feelings about. It’s no surprise that that sort of popularity can be a precarious thing to hold onto, and that it can disappear as quickly as it forms. What made the popular...

If people came with a warning tag, what would yours be? byu/Memeclub_ inAskReddit Here, via the folks of Reddit, are some warning labels you might consider if you fit the...
