I’m not alone in being troubled by how people suddenly disappear in life, right? That’s essentially why the internet was created. You may have heard rumors about Al Gore inventing it for military purposes... Lies!

Read...I cried every single day of my life until I was 18 years old. I did not know this was abnormal.
