What is one unusual ingredient you add to a mainstream dish that instantly elevates it?This is a super basic one, but when I’m making a quick grilled cheese sandwich I like to add a little bit of chipotle mayo to it. It blends right into the cheese so it’s virtually unnoticeable (perfect for picky children!). It just gives a little bit... See More »
What is one popular food or meal that everybody seems to love except for you?I don’t like sushi. 🤢 I think it’s pretty to look at because it can be very colorful and tastefully presented, but I really don’t see the appeal beyond that. It’s gross.
What is the most disturbing true crime case you’ve ever heard of that still haunts you?The Junko Furuta case. I don’t even like to talk about her case. Kind of wish I never stumbled upon this one at all.
Common tropes that look super romantic and attractive in romance novels or movies but get old very fast or are major red flags in rl relationships?For me, it’s the “you are my everything” male character that is always consumed with love and passion for the female heroine and who spends every single moment he has to be apart from them just aching to be with them again. This is romanticized so mu... See More »
Do you ever feel irrationally overwhelmed when you have too many people you have to get back to?And by “too many people” I mean like 3 or 4 people that sent you some text messages that all require responses. It’s not that many people to respond to. I know, theoretically speaking, that 3-4 people is a manageable number of people to text back,... See More »
What happens if you block somebody here?Do they still see you and your posts? Can they just not interact with you in your inbox? How exactly does that work out here? I’m not sure I ever blocked anyone here before.
What is a Song You Once Listened to Over and Over Again When You Felt Like Your World Was Ending?Crash by Sum 41
If You Could Live Inside The Universe of Any TV Show or Movie, Which One Would You Pick?Nobody laugh at me, but I would love to live in the Gilmore Girls universe. The idyllic and cozy escapism of Gilmore Girls always hits the spot for me. That’s the world I’d love to live in.
If You Could Live Inside Any Book You’ve Ever Read, Which Book Would You Choose?The Harry Potter books for me, hands down. That’s the universe I would have loved to live in.
What Age Range Where You When You Found EP?I feel like so many of us have been growing old together on this site, lol. I remember when I first joined EP I was in the 15-17 age range (or whatever those numbers were for the teenaged users). I remember seeing so many people on here that were 30+... See More »
Do You All Gatekeep SW?I’ve been gatekeeping the site since we were EP. I didn’t like to tell people about EP because I felt that this was the way for me to write freely on here. Having people I knew in real life on here would have inhibited me from feeling comfortable pos... See More »
Summertime SADI know the current term for this is Seasonal Affective Disorder. I know most people get it in the winter when it becomes very rainy and overcast, but I feel like it really kicks my ass in the summer. The extreme heat, the fatigue, the sluggishness,... See More »
Hallmark Christmas MoviesSo guys, I've been looking for some good Christmas movies to watch and I decided to look into Hallmark's Christmas movies, but my god... There are just so damn many Christmas movies to choose from that I instantly became overwhelmed by all the... See More »
I Started in May This YearIt is now December, and I have joined a total of 21 different local events via Meetup, making a few friends along the way on this app. I would recommend it to any introverts who would like to broaden their social horizons.
Though If I Am To Be Perfectly Honest...I had a lot to do with that. I do everything in my power to keep people from really knowing me, even the person I care about most in the world. I've managed to convince myself years ago that no one can really handle my inner baggage so I keep all... See More »
It Wasn't Something I Ever Thought I'd Be Interested In [I Have Been In An Age Gap Relationship]I spent a good portion of my life thinking that relationships with large age gaps were weird. It was never really anything that tickled my fancy... until I fell in love with a 55-year-old man, lol. It was completely unexpected, but I came out of it... See More »
"Hated" is the Keyword HereNow that I'm older and in college, I can honestly say I really love school. I've come to see the value in an education and I've actually come to regret a lot of the time I spent slacking off in high school. If I had kept the same grades back then... See More »
What is the dumbest excuse you ever came up with on the spot after getting caught doing something you weren't supposed to be doing?Not referring to just cheating or relationship stuff, by the way. Just anything that you were not supposed to be doing in that moment that you got caught doing and had to justify somehow without too much forethought.
I Am Saddened By IgnoranceI was reconnecting with an old friend on Facebook recently. We talked to each other about how we've been and all that stuff. Then I inquired about her sister and she told me she had gotten married and moved to Florida with her husband. When I asked... See More »
What are your thoughts on people who enforce their vegan diets on their pets?Should it or would it be considered a form of animal abuse? Can a carnivorous animal like a dog or a cat really live a long and healthy life while living on nothing but rabbit food? Wouldn't these animals be dangerously underweight or weak and... See More »
I Want To Dedicate This Song To YouJust a little bit of background on this one. I had a very close real-life best friend who was even on EP for a while, but she left years before the site was even shut down. I don't know if she knows that EP was shut down years ago or even of the... See More »
Is EP coming back?Does anybody know if the rumors are true? Is EP making a return? I've had a few people tell me that already, but I can't find any info on it.
I Love These LyricsWhat Sober Couldn't Say by Halestorm Headed for a blackout Hurting like hell Finding my way to bottom of the bottle Packing up my suitcase Leaving no trace One step closer with every swallow A deafening silence Like you like me Where you want me... See More »
