description: Sometimes you just have to laugh even when life is a dumpster fire. With We Are Never Meeting in Real Life. bitches gotta eat blogger and comedian Samantha Irby turns the serio-comic essay into an art form.

Stay fat --Nashville hot chicken --I'm in love and it's boring --A bomb probably --The real housewife of Kalamazoo --Thirteen questions to ask before getting married --Yo I need a job --Feelings are a mistake --We are never meeting in real life
