BuzzFeed asked 50 people about the last time they had sex — and it wasn’t all P in the V, people. Extremely open, honest, and revealing answers ahead.

Ever since we outgrew the base system, we've lost touch with what our peers and confidantes actually get up to when they get laid. Does "sex" exclusively mean vaginal penetration? Or does sleepily masturbating a few feet apart count too? And what do lesbians even do, anyway? In search of answers, BuzzFeed anonymously surveyed people of all ages, genders and sexualities. We asked them to describe the nitty-gritty of their last sexual encounter — however they define it — and to be completely honest.
Here's what they said.
"I had sex with a guy I just started dating for the first time last week. It was great until we needed lube, which he didn't have. (Guys. You need lube. You are a grown-ass man who's had sex with other people. YOU NEED LUBE.) So we just took turns going down on each other — which, as a person who has gay sex way more frequently than straight sex, I enjoyed more than P-in-V.
Fingers OR tongues are way more dexterous than dicks, and also oral sex lasts waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay longer than 'regular' sex. More intense, focused pleasure over a longer period of time is always going to be a winner. I came twice and he came three times before I left the next morning."

"I have an inability to have 'normal' sex because of vaginal conditions that I have. My boyfriend and I have found so many ways around it. Just recently, I kneeled in front of him on the bed with my back to him while he caressed me until I came. And then I did the same for him. Some days, I will get on top of him and 'dry hump' until we both come (yes, this is possible), and other days he will get behind me and do the same. It's all about experimentation and finding out what works for the both of you."

Like most people who use Facebook, Clinton’s timeline focused on her accomplishments rather than failures.

On Sunday, Hillary Clinton said that she would be running for president in the 2016 election. Clinton announced her campaign through a YouTube video released on her website, a tweet, and a Facebook post.
After Clinton's announcement, people on social media started to notice that her Facebook timeline had been filled in with important events.
On Thursday, the Clinton Presidential Library in Little Rock, Arkansas, released thousands of documents about “gay marriage” and the Defense of Marriage Act. Here are some of the documents BuzzFeed News found.
Three years earlier, President Bill Clinton, who opposed same-sex couples' marriage rights at the time, had signed the Defense of Marriage Act into law — banning the federal government from recognizing such marriages.
But, same-sex couples were still out there — holding commitment ceremonies and, for some, weddings. More than a handful of those couples invited Clinton to their ceremony or wedding.
What to do?

The actual policy of the Clinton White House was to take same-sex couples' wedding invitations, put them in a file, and do nothing else with them.
Then, Kelley Van Auken came along and was having none of it. Van Auken had served as the director of volunteers and worked in the Greetings Office in the Clinton White House. She died in 2014.
Her solution to the same-sex couples' wedding invite problem — a solution she saw as entirely consistent with DOMA — was to send such couples cards letting them know the president was joining them in celebrating their "Special Day."

Eyes - Lined with kohl; often wore green or blue eyeshadow
Lips - Popular lip colors included orange, red, blue-black, and magenta
Hair - Braids framed the face
Women in Ancient Egypt lined their eyes with kohl, a substance made of soot, metal, and fat. Kohl was thought to help prevent the eyes from blindness, and doctors carried it in their bags. Green and blue eyeshadows were made naturally, with the mineral malachite. Lipstick in ancient Egypt symbolized status - both men and women of the upper class wore it.

Eyebrows - Unibrows
Eyeshadow - Natural shades
Skin - Pale
The goal of ancient Greek cosmetics was natural beauty. Unibrows were the popular eyebrow style for ancient Greek women. Those who couldn’t grow one naturally would either glue animal fur between their existing brows, or create one with kohl. Women commonly wore lead-based face cream to lighten their skin.

Eyes - Lined with kohl
Hair - Often worn in a bun or braid, and decorated with fresh flowers
Skin - Married Hindu women wore a bindi during this time
Lips - Lip rouge
Indian women have lined their eyes with kohl since ancient times, and this continued during the Gupta Age. Women commonly wore their hair either in one long braid down the back, or in a low bun decorated with fresh flowers. During this period of time, the bindi was specifically worn by married Hindu women.

A Georgia man accidentally shot his mother-in-law in the back after a bullet bounced off the armadillo he was intending to kill.

Sheriff's deputies in Lee County, Georgia, said the 54-year-old man shot an armadillo with a 9 mm pistol, which killed the little armored animal, but a bullet also ricocheted off of it and eventually hit his mother-in-law, Carol Johnson, in the back, WALB-TV reported.
"Just the circumstances, just all the way around, the whole situation was unusual," Lee County Sheriff's Investigator Bill Smith said.
After the bullet bounced off the armadillo, it hit a fence and went through the door of Johnson's mobile home, and then through a recliner, where the 74-year-old woman was sitting.
Adding to the improbability of it all: Officials said McElroy was about 100 yards away from the home at the time he shot the pistol.
Johnson was taken to a hospital, where she is expected to recover.
"She was walking around on her own power and talking," Smith said of Johnson's condition. "It didn't appear to be too severe."

Armadillos are considered a nuisance to some homeowners because they dig for food, which can destroy a flower bed, Scott Frazier, a Georgia Department of Natural Resources wildlife biologist, told Fox News.
James Morgan, the Dougherty County extension coordinator, told WALB-TV that they do recommend shooting or trapping armadillos for residents that live in the county.
"At first, I ask if they live in the city or county, because shooting is an effective way of getting rid of them," Morgan said. "However, you have to be safe when you do that."
Smith also recommend using a shotgun in the future.
"I really think if they're going to shoot at varmints and whatnot, maybe use a shotgun ... with a spread pattern with a lot less range," he said.
