If you haven't been to the PostSecret website lately, this weekend's secrets are INSANE!
Check 'em out...very disturbing stuff in there. I would hate to be the people living with these (well, except for the produce thief, whom I kind of admire...kind of).

2. I love PostSecret. I read it every week.
I think that you're the one who introduced me to it. Thanks for that.

5. It is as FAR away from a freeper site as you're going to get.
That's what I say, anyway. The site was started to help people suffering from emotional pain due to secret keeping, and helps support a suicide prevention hotline.

7. I think I'd have to pass on a suicide prevention line too. I can only do so much.

8. You don't have to *do* anything. The creator doesn't demand donations for the line or other groups.

It's...just a cool site.

12. But, would I have to take suicide calls? I don't think I could handle that right now.

13. NO. The site has an add up for the prevention line and that's it. Well, they occasionally
ask people to donate but you can look at the secrets for free without any commitments of any kind.

15. WTF?
Yes, because clicking on a website leads to having to take suicide calls.

16. I asked a simple question. Get the fuck over yourself and dry your powder elsewhere.

9. I heard about that, but never saw it until I clicked on one of your links to it awhile ago.

Now I check it all the time. Cool site. Thanks!

11. Heh.


Yeah, I sent them one and they posted it. Even just sending the thing was therapeutic, but seeing it posted was like... wow, seriously cathartic.

Most excellent idea for a website. Wish I'd thought of it.

14. Thanks for the reminder. I forgot all about that site.
I've been there the last 15min or so. The music I'm listening to is the perfect accompaniment and I'm mesmerized. Gotta go back now.
