True. Still, if it were one of my exes, I would’ve let him wallow in self-pity and write all the songs he wants about me. I don’t have time to play to an ex’s insecurities and years old hurt feelings.

If you hadn’t spoken in years, why did you feel the need to contact him? Why didn’t you assume he’d mostly forgotten about you (not to be mean), moved and was focused on new relationships and other stuff? It just seems unnecessary to me.

No way. Your relationship with your ex ended. There’s no need to work your new relationship around your old one, it should be independant. If kids are involved or you and the ex stayed very close friends then that may warrant a more personal announcement - akin to how you might tell your parents, since you presumably…

I don’t know what a packie is but that’s kind of my point. Why bother with prohibition when people can just leave that county to get booze elsewhere and bring it back? There’s no point to such an outdated rule and I wonder why prohibition wasn’t just removed everywhere all at once because of that.

Even more interestingly,

“Until November 2014, it was an alcohol prohibition or dry county.”

I didn’t know places in the States still had prohibition. Like... why?

social responsibility and respectability, consequences for your actions =! censorshop

Nothing has any influence on anything! Everything is independent of everything else! Lalalala!

Why can’t a teenager also understand that it’s not okay to take lightly? That understanding needs to start in childhood.

Like I said before, I think it’s silly but I never minded making them. If you ordered and explained that to me, I wouldn’t be bothered by it. It just when customers get anal about the little bubbles that always surface after the milk has been poured and the drink has sat for a couple minutes that make this the worst…

THANK YOU. I truly don’t understand the concept of leaving a poopy brush beside your toilet, that’s so fucking gross. I have much smaller disposable sponges with a particular arm that I reuse and scrub the bowl with. I store the arm (which minimally touches the water) in a place away from other things. This seems to…

Yeah, absolutely. They had the worst attitudes, even compared to the jerks who insisted that their brief trip to Italy endowed them with special coffee knowledge (which was always wrong and often conflated with French coffee history) and they’d explain certain terms to me incorrectly, etc. Also I never understood why…

Yeah, I mean, I think no foam lattes are silly but I never cared when people requested them. Just getting angry and trying to get a college student fired ‘cause 1% of your milk is in a format you didn’t want is ridiculous, thoughtless and selfish. Like, you’re going to pee out that latte in a couple hours but you…

I had a woman try to get me fired over the half dozen bubbles I left on the top of her no-foam latte. She complained and looked at the line of people behind her a the bar as if trying to get them to agree that I was an idiot; nobody bought into it, of course. I gave her my legit name and manager’s name and told her…

See, I found the same flexibility shopping with ASOS and Modcloth, but they were cheaper than David’s (and personally I don’t like the styles David’s offers either). We got a colour and a length to go with and as long as it was “formal looking” enough we could shop anywhere, since they didn’t have to match, and we…

Gold-plated metal for the chain and resin for the roses (not magnolias); fwiw the mould for those roses is super ubiquitous and you can find a kit to make those yourself in most craft stores.

I didn’t say it was a well written description!

I’m just not taking the internet that seriously today.

And I’m arguing that that’s not what they were really doing and you’re misinterpreting their intention of having a description.

Duuuuuuuuude I KNOW the trend, I read Pinkham’s rant about naming places, I know. I get it. A description helps place the reader, helps those of us who aren’t familiar with these common American chain restaurants, and in this case, saving the name (even if it was obvious to Americans) until the end helped the impact…
