"Why Me?": Embarrassing moment throwback

old magazines
Grabbed my yoga towel right out of the dryer yesterday. I opened it before class and pair of underwear was stuck to it. A lot of people noticed because I actually shook it open like one tends to do with a big towel.
It kinda made my day because it reminded me of "Why Me?" from TEEN, a magazine which you know about if you are a girl of almost any age (that magazine was around from 1954-2009). Personally, TEEN and Seventeen taught me how to choose the right first date outfit, pluck my eyebrows and bring out my natural curls with a few easy steps... in addition to scaring me senseless with that story about the chick who didn't know she was pregnant and then gave birth in the bathroom at the prom. Great stuff.
If you are a boy without sisters or simply don't know about TEEN, it worked like this: they printed teen girls' most embarrassing moments and almost every story ended with "...and my crush saw the whole thing!" Another important thing to know is that the period ones were always the funniest.

Yeah! I remember prowling for the period ones...we just looked over the other stories.
to offer a male perspective, those stories were HILARIOUS. my sister and i used to read them aloud to each other. that's right, i knew how to read even back then.
