The realest sh*t ever.
How to not be an annoying freshman?
Honestly, freshman year is a time to get your ducks in order. Everyone gets a free pass to be naive and to get their footing for a while—we’ve ALL been there! You are going to learn and grow as a human being much faster than it seems right now (trust me, I did NOT expect to be a senior this fast). Starting high school is a whole new bucket of worms, and you might feel lost or insecure about yourself, but everyone else either is or has been in the same boat. Anyone who judges you for that is immature and absolutely won’t matter in a few years.
So I suppose my answer is that it doesn’t matter, and you should just be true to yourself. Let yourself be embarrassing. Let yourself go through all the phases. Just let yourself learn. We’re all in different stages of the sh*tstorm that is becoming the best versions of ourselves, and that’s okay.
How does one ask a girl out? Help.
I’ll just leave this here.

I’ve heard rumors that the recent Jonah Hill movie, Mid 90s, is actually a biographical account of the childhood of OSA English teacher David Rosenberg? Is this true?
I actually brought this question to the Rosen himself, who claims it’s not about him, but I’m not too sure. Maybe it is. Maybe it isn’t. Maybe it’s up to interpretation? Maybe it’s an extended metaphor. An extended, extended metaphor? Are you getting my extended metaphor?
If it’s about him, he doesn’t want us to know. Other sources do tie a correlation between the lives of Stevie from Mid90s and David Ezekiel Rosenberg, but will we ever know for sure? Probably not. That’s the impossible dream. This has been my entrance exam to AP Lang.
My friend’s in a situation where they’re probably gonna get screwed over, is it my responsibility to warn them, or should I stay out of it?
This one really depends on the level of danger, but you should step in to some degree, especially if you think you have helpful advice. Bring it up lightly, and in a non-confrontational way. They’ll likely be more receptive if you assure them you’re concerned because you care about them, and that your intention is to make their situation better. If they get defensive, don’t push it too much. If it’s a really serious issue that could result in someone being harmed etc, you should definitely seek out help from someone who is more equipped to handle the situation. Even if you think they’ll get angry at you, it’s really important to watch out for your friends. What if you don’t do anything and the worst does in fact occur? Always err on the side of caution.
Hope this helps and that everything turns out okay for your friend!
I’m trying to plan an orgy. Do you have any tips? Asking for a friend. Thanks.
--Needing a PhD in communications
Well, that’s quite an operation. Personally, I’ve never planned one (but I know someone who did, and it really does take a PhD in communications). I suppose I’d start by carefully deciding who to invite—ideally with the input of another person who will be involved. Then I would discuss it with each of them individually:ask them how they feel about the orgy itself and the other invitees. Communication, comfort, and consent (the three Cs!) are super important in any sexual endeavor, but they are particularly imperative here. There shouldn’t be any surprises for anyone involved.
Once you know who is coming, the last step would best be some kind of group discussion, just to make sure everyone is on the same page. This will also ease some of the awkwardness/skepticalness.
Good luck, and most importantly, be safe!
