The trouble with Purity Test/Never Have I Ever type of games is that they always focus on “which drugs/kinds of sex have you had?” questions, and never the more interesting ones. Oh sure, they usually ask if you’ve ever ridden in an ambulance or a police car, but they never ask “have you ever—”

I also had to remove a bat that got into my house during a very raucous party. That was also fun in a different way because my roommate and her boyfriend at the time kind of saw it go in, but weren't positive, and then the next morning found out and flipped that they might have rabies, so I womanned up and engaged in pursuit of the thing with a tofu container. It had gotten into her closet and she'd gone as far as to remove all the clothes. I made a bunch of noise and the bat flopped out but was super sleepy so I was able to catch it in the tofu container. Obviously I wanted to keep it as a pet as it was hella cute (not as cute as the flying fox, though) but that would be cruel, so I snapped some pictures of it and then set it free on the roof.
2. Yes. Clothed. There is a great published comic in which I modelled both a transgender teenager and the assholes who bully her.
3. Do campfire ashes count? Because a lot.
4. No.
5. Yes. It was unpleasant.
6. I think everyone has to in high school.
