2 of my all-time favorite Reddit threads

Reddit was the original Secret. It continually reminds me that while we’re 99.999% the same, that 0.001% can be soooo fascinating…

Throwaway time! What’s your secret that could literally ruin your life if it came out?

Some excerpts:

I run a cake business. I charge people hundreds for wedding cakes… Every last one is made using Pilsbury cake mix I buy for $1 a box at Walmart. I suck at baking. Every time I’ve ever tried to make a cake from scratch it sucked. But baking is like.. My whole deal. My friends all call me the cake girl.

Two and a half years ago I was in dire financial straights, so I sold my home to keep my struggling business afloat. I neglected to tell the owners that they have an 800 sq. ft. bunker on the property that I built about seven years ago. The bunker that I’ve called home since I sold it. The entrance to it is well-hidden, but I still come and go very early/very late in the day.

What is your biggest secret desire that you are ashamed of telling anyone?

I work as a nursing assistant at a retirement home, and the one thing I’ve always wanted to do is break a bunch of residents out. Something like a Ferris Bueller’s Day Off kinda day where me and about a hundred old people have an awesome day. Give them something to enjoy so close to their ends.

I want to be a house husband. All I want to do in life is write my novels, cook, clean, keep the finances, keep a nice house and fuck my wife when she wants.
