“I sit on the barstool, momentarily stupefied, trying to assimilate this morsel of information.”
That's a whole lot of big words just to say that she's trying to come to terms with some info. Chriiist. Does assimilate even WORK as a synonym in that sentence?
This is like... using a dictionary/thesaurus101 that I always bring up with 2nd language students: that it's a synonym doesn't mean it means the exact same thing and that they're both appropriate in different situations. You need to know your nuances. And I tell this to Norwegian school children. And she's a goddamn native speaker, omg I cannot.
dear god "host a party" be the creepy bitch that invites everyone she knows to a sex toy party yaaaaaaaay! that is JUST what I wanted to do today! *gags*
I actually went to one (it was hosted by a women's group at my college that my friends were in) and it wasn't creepy really. Just kind of awkward and hilarious. Especially since a bunch of boyfriends/random guys showed up.

My favorite. Just because of what it would be like if it was realXD
The fix: Pick one. And stop crying over this loser.
I so approve of the last part!
