Olaf Falafel<\/a><\/strong>: We named our children War and Peace \u2013 it\u2019s a long story.<\/p>\n

Andrew Doherty<\/a><\/strong>: <\/strong>At my lowest, I was kicked out of the museum for being inappropriate with Michelangelo\u2019s David. I\u2019d hit rock bottom.<\/p>\n

Bella Hull<\/a><\/strong>: <\/strong>I just got a personal trainer. She\u2019s horrible to me but my body goal is a thicker skin.<\/p>\n

Rob Auton<\/a><\/strong>: <\/strong>Everyone is worried about AI. I\u2019m more concerned with what the other vowels are up to.<\/p>\n

Ian Smith<\/a><\/strong>: People who say bath bombs are relaxing have clearly never tried to carry one home in the rain.<\/p>\n

Amelia Hamilton<\/a><\/strong>: <\/strong>I love getting Latin chat-up lines. I carpe every DM.<\/p>\n

Sikisa<\/a><\/strong>: This spider has been in my house so long, it should pay half the wifi. As a web developer, it can afford to.<\/p>\n

Chris Grace<\/a><\/strong>: <\/strong>I went on a date with a matador but there were too many red flags.<\/p>\n

Candace Bryan<\/a><\/strong>: <\/strong>America is like my ex-boyfriend. Our relationship was toxic, when I left everyone called me brave, and now every morning I pull up social media to see how ugly he\u2019s getting.<\/p>\n

Rajiv Karia<\/a><\/strong>: <\/strong>I\u2019m not nostalgic but I used to be. Those were the days.<\/p>\n
