Scheidenwhat?

I like PostSecret.com a lot. For one, people do some really cool artwork. And even though some of the secrets are rather eerie (like the one that said "Everyone who knew me before 9/11 thinks I'm dead" with a picture of the towers), it's really oddly comforting to realize that everyone really has some freakish aspect of them that they think no one will really understand or they find shameful. It makes you feel a little better about your own freakish parts. Sometimes it's 'cause you read something about someone that you identify in yourself. Sometimes it's that scheidenfreude (if I spelled that right someone totally owes me money) thing...taking pleasure from someone else's pain ('cause hey, at least it's not you with the problem!)

Like I said, I like it a lot. Sometimes there is rarely anything quite as comforting as a good secret.
