Before my life began (BMLB) 

Before my life began (BMLB) is from the “going full common playbook” of things a man can say when he is about to drop to one knee and put a ring on it! This phrase is also used when writing one’s own wedding vows to negate all of the “macking” you perpetrated before you met your wife — especially if old lovers are at the wedding and you want to throw a final elbow or two in their general direction. To use this phrase and sell it it, you must be at least 75% sincere AND say it with a straight face! After all you did invite ex’s to the wedding to make a point, didn’t you?
Him: Baby, none of them matter! That all happened before my life began (BMLB)
Her: Oh! When was that?
Him: When we finally surrendered to each other and fell in love

Now if you’re reading this and think it’s corny then you can’t pull it off. And if you can pull this off then go full Common and write your own vows because at some point you kissed the Blarney Stone!

Word of the Day on November 3, 2026
Brought to public attention by Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein in the book on the fall of Richard Nixon, All The President’s Men, ratfucker was Nixon’s term for a political operative who sows chaos among opponents; an agent provocateur. It is thought to have originated among campus political rivalries at USC, and seems to have some usage in the US military.
Along with Nixon’s other ratfuckers, Roger Stone caused fights at otherwise peaceful Democratic Party protests to generate a false narrative that the Democrats were violent and dangerous.
