A haunted house so scary, you need a waiver to get in!

There's a haunted house in Tustin, Calif. that is reportedly so scary, you have to sign a waiver to enter!

Created by Robbie and Heather Luther, "The 17th Door," as the terrifying house is called, takes guests on blood-curdling ride through the twisted imaginations/realities of a college freshman named Paula, whose demons come back to haunt her.

The 17th Door has been months in the making, and the creators' hard work has apparently paid off. The only way you can get out is by uttering the word "mercy," which hundreds of people have already done.

This isn't your run-of-the-mill haunted house. According to Heather Luther, it's an immersive experience unlike any other -- so much so that you can expect to get wet and touched. If you're adamant about no one intruding on your personal space, this place is not for you. The house features a bevy of costumed monsters ready to send chills up your spine.

I have never been one for scary entertainment, and I'd be even less inclined to try it out when the venue requires that you sign a waiver. Still, they are getting hordes of visitors each day, proving that the demand for this kind of gory fun is alive and well.

Would you ever pay to go into a haunted house this scary? Do you like going to them at all?

No response from someone IS a response

Make no mistake about it: When you don't get a response from someone -- whether they fail to answer your texts or return your phone calls -- it is still a response, and a powerful one at that. When a person fails to respond, it's a direct reflection of their interest -- or lack thereof -- in the relationship. Few things are more aggravating than having to hound a partner, friend, or relative for some sort of reply after we've reached out to them. Yes, we get busy from time to time, but that doesn't give anyone the right to leave the other person hanging. A terse text with something like "Been busy, will reach out soon" doesn't say much, but at least it shows some effort to bring the other person up to speed on why they've fallen off the radar. Failing to provide a response for weeks -- if not months -- communicates that you are just not a priority, and that you'll have to wait your turn to get this individual's attention. This is n...

Do you have Isolophilia? Find out...

You're probably asking yourself, "What in the world does Isolophilia mean?" It sounds like it would be something negative, doesn't it? After all, words that end in "philia" (e.g., pedophilia) tend to involve things we want nothing to do with. But Isolophilia isn't something all people deplore. In fact, introverts like me welcome it. Put simply, Isolophilia is defined as having a strong affinity for solitude. It describes a person who relishes being alone. While extroverts can only take so much solitude, we introverts find that it rejuvenates us. In order to recharge our batteries, we need to retreat to a quiet environment where we we're left alone to rest and/or gather our thoughts. Extroverts, on the other hand, become bored and drained when they're alone for a lengthy period of time. Social interaction is the fuel that drives them. So while an extrovert would probably do anything to avoid feelings of Isolophilia in most cases, an...

This will spell the end of your relationship

When asked to think about the most common culprits for a relationship's going south, most people will point to cheating, complacency, and taking one's partner for granted. While these are all valid -- and documented in various posts on this blog -- there are certain habits on the part of partners that may not kill the relationship right away, but cause it to erode more gradually. Among the most egregious of these is expecting your significant other to be perfect. They pick at your follies any chance they get. Nothing you do is ever good enough. In fact, you will never measure up to an ex, neighbor, or accomplished co-worker. Perhaps this all sounds a bit familiar. When you feel as though you're constantly being put under the microscope, it can inflict lasting damage on the relationship and your self-esteem. You're walking on eggshells all the time, praying you don't say or do something that's going to trigger your partner. This is no way to live, let alone ca...
