oh yes! I remember reading your article before! HILARIOUS! The same thing happened to me when i first posted one of my Medium articles. I received a snarky comment, and I was actually glad that the community is hypervigilant about plagarism. This is great! It means the ecosystem will remain healthy. Ellie, I never told you on Medium, but I think out of all the writers, I'm the most jealous of you!!!!! I was told many times by people that I should do stand-up comedy, but I'm too fucking shy to actually do it. It took me 41 years just to get over my shyness in order to give a public speech. It scares the shit out of me to stand up in front of people. that's why i hide behind my computer screen 24/7.....
I can't believe you said this one: "My legs look and feel like two Twinkies that melted together so the only way I can pull this feat off is by squatting like I’m pooping in the woods. "
Holy crap. I guess each generation gets gutsier and breaks the rules of the previous generation......I could be your mother! I'm Generation X, which means that you don't even know what that means, seeing how the news never fucking mentions my generation anymore. Just think of my generation like this: It's the generation defined by depressing music, clothes with ripped holes and lead singers who commit suicide. That pretty much sums it up! Kurt Cobain killed himself in during the month I graduated from college!
