Grown ass men admitting/tweeting that they've never heard of Trent Reznor is embarrassing. Like, I'm embarrassed for you. No wonder you all grew up to idolize the Musky's of the world.

The wind caressed my hair and whispered something incomprehensible. Who was I to argue? I refused to turn around and embrace the cold. I couldn't #cherish a broken circle. A feeling unexplainable—an echo of a past buried a long damn time ago. #vss365

You knew. You knew she wouldn't stop to #think twice. You watched her fall like a star trapped beneath a heavy sunrise. #vss365

She always looked at #change as an adventure waiting to happen. The gentle light of happiness was a door he held open for her once again. She took a step forward and held his hand. #vss365

She lost control—hiding her heart between the dark lanes of a #distant ride. She never had a choice. She smiled & said what he wanted her to say. I never blamed her. She fell & loved every last second of the descent. #vss365
