Damn, was I the only student not to grow up in an upper class white Mormon bubble? I think this quote from Ginevra King about Scott Fitzgerald sums up my feeling at BYU: ''She said he was always on the outside, looking in.''

Looks like it's reverted to full 2000s style.

You're being gaslighted. This whole process is BONKERS AND NOW HAS MADE THIS AMERICAN LIFE

The tone of this sounds dystopian.

Question-asker, if you're lurking, work out your own repentance and keep the Gestapo over at the HCO out of it.

Reviving an old thread! I was struck by this line in a review of a book I'm reading: It’s not only, as she notes herself, a question of historical context. Like so many others right now, she seems to have forgotten that, even five years ago, you would have been hard pressed to get many, if not most,...

I've got a big international trip planned in a couple of months (read: lots of awesome new things to see and less easy access to Internet/WiFi than I usually have) and I am so looking forward to using that time to do a news purge and reset the way I usually follow news. Hopefully when I get back I'...

My therapist is actually 100% on board with me running away from this garbage news cycle for a while and just mountain biking in the wilderness and I think she has a good point. My day to day functioning is fine I guess but I feel like I'm about to snap. Always listen to your therapist. I think I s...

I'm experiencing the ex-Mormon version of this because of OKCupid's double-opt-in system now.

Except he linked to his Medium blog and followed me and I followed him back? HELP

I think that it is safe to say that my preferred couple style is #2. :-) One day I want to go to their workshops in Seattle, they are my favorite marriage researchers.

I vehemently disagree with the advice given by Alta in this answer. http://100hourboard.org/questions/91015/ I would be disturbed and angry to learn that I had been reverse-negged by a partner who decided to turn my faults into fake praise. I do believe in the research that you need to have a much h...

It was particularly cruel how he was like your long-lost parents were nobodies, bitch.

Not the stuff of romance.

I have questions for those of you who have experienced suicidal thoughts. My daughter's babysitter recently attempted suicide (!!), stayed in a mental hospital for 10 days, and is undergoing outpatient treatment. I asked her if she felt up to babysitting next month and she said she wanted to as lon...

I feel like this article from 2013 is in the spirit of the Board.

Third person omniscient?

So, "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend" recently went there and the character received the same diagnosis. It's a very humorous and sympathetic portrayal: you might like it (or might be horrified and not ready to go there, who knows?). I don't think it's surprising having abandonment issues or identity ...

What did I do? Got the heck out of dodge, obvi.

What should you do? I don't know, but I'm here for you no matter what. <3

Where the hell is Skippy deLorean when we need him???

We are the 4%?

(Wondering if the hate for Stats is related! :P )

http://theboard.byu.edu/questions/90203/ Since no one else voted for it, I'm picking my minor, English, for the following reasons : 1) BYU has some great faculty in that department I can recommend 2) You can have persuasive and tech writing to make yourself more marketable 3) You can always tell you...
