That One Time I Did Drugs
I lived in an apartment complex with my husband and on my birthday decided to go to a friend's apartment where there were a lot of people gathered.

A New Love/Hate Relationship
There's a trend here in Japan and I don't know if it's going on anywhere else, I'll assume so at the risk for making an ass of myself.
