How did you hear of / Join fips?

JESS: I had just got fired from my bartending job (the day after my birthday!) and my boyfriend and I broke up shortly after; day in and day out I was basically wallowing in self pity at my apartment writing in my journal asking it questions like "when did it all go wrong??" A friend of mine was trying to cheer me up and sent me a link from fips about the honey badger. I thought it was funny and started reading more articles on the site, eventually I made it to the section where you can submit a story to become a contributor. I sent in some thing I had wrote about the one bastard fly in my apartment that never dies and my antics trying to catch him, two months later Erica responded and asked for something park slope based.
