I was definitely one of the kids this failed miserably with. I got used to being in debt, and getting too much joy out of my purchases to care about the consequences down the road. Took getting into moderate amounts of credit card debt twice to finally realize I can’t handle a credit card that is mine alone. I have my…

A friend of mine pointed me to the subreddit; while my daughter is barely a year old, I love being able to provide the unequivocal love I feel for her to a complete stranger who may not have that available and can respond and understand it in words. Someday very soon my daughter will be able to respond with more than…

My heart jumped at the title hoping they were announcing it coming to switch. Still an interesting read!

I would, but I am legit allergic to brie rind. And I fucking love me some brie rind. It was a sad day when I put two and two together and realized my throat always felt like it was closing up when I had brie, but it got marginally better when I realized I could have it as long as I cut off the rind.

Count me as a freak of nature—I’m definitely allergic to brie rind. Any time I have more than a speck of the rind my throat closes up a little for an hour or so. If I cut off the rind or if it’s heated like in a panini, no problems. Which is a good thing because goddamn do I love me some brie.

I’ll bite, what stores do you go to in Philly? Being in the burbs my only real option for reliably being able to find some ingredients is Assi Market.

Isn’t it 9pm EST?

The only cure that has reliably worked for me has been to get a glass of water, take a big sip, then tilt my head back with the water so it covers the back of my throat. I figure it’s triggering the ‘don’t breathe under water’ reflex, which means my body is suddenly very interested in not letting that water get down…

Nah bruh. Here’s how you poach like a bawss.

Wouldn't it just shatter? I mean, not that I've given this more than about 5 minutes of contemplation...

I would offer then that you consider danios, or guppies, and no JD or bichir or butterfly fish. As I said, my bichir ate the butterfly fish despite showing no interest leading up to it (and despite it being too big for it to eat in theory), so the whole "bottom versus top" argument is moot when one fish is a highly…

Please consider only having the Jack Dempsey, or only the butterfly fish, or only the bichir/dinosaur eel. JD's can be very aggressive and need very large tanks, and bichir/dinosaur eels get very large very quickly if you feed them properly (that little 3 inch fish is going to turn into a 1-2 foot monster). I actually…

My money's on it being classified as a promotional value, rather than gift card. Essentially they're giving you a 'discount' equal to your previous balance as a promotional gift.

So mentioning the "Eff Bee Aye" or the "See Eye Ayy" is totally stupid?

At a guess (based off Amazon price listings) it looks like the 32 gig is dropping to $80. Nothing to sneeze at, but not the OMG drop I'd hoped for.

I have been told point blank that I have no future at my current position unless I spend three years getting a Masters in a field which is only tangentially related to my position or the position I would like to have. I am hopefully getting a job offer this afternoon.

I'm a huge fan of this website: http://runningintheusa.com/Race/

There's a lot of charity runs where you don't have to raise money; the entry fee itself goes towards a foundation. My first 5k was for the Wounded Warrior's Project, and all proceeds went to the foundation. There's another one tonight (I wish I could do it!) that has all proceeds and entry fees going towards an equine…

I will try to do this when I do finally sign up for a race; I'm having too much fun just running at the moment, and I'd like to be able to reliably run a 5k at a good clip before I sign up for one again.

Love my FitBit. I bought it as a reward to myself for getting down below 155 pounds, and it's been worth every penny. The surprise feature has definitely been the silent alarm: I can get up in the morning for an early morning run without waking up my fiance. Most of the time he doesn't even know I've left until I come…
