I’ve been working on improving my cooking skills for the past year. This resulted in a very tearful conversation with my husband, where I had to explain that if I was going to spend 8 hours in the kitchen making ravioli from scratch at his request, he could at least take a fucking bite before drowning it in Sriracha.

Why on earth make it ruinous to break the law, why! Why. I'm stomping and everything.

Wait, someone who claimed that a mindful diet and a couple handfuls of herbs and some reiki cured her of malignant brain cancer turns out to be full of shit about everything else, too?

By your same logic, there have never been an HIV/AIDS epidemic. All of our time and money spent trying to deal with that has been a total waste. What a shame.

My son is working on a cemetery restoration project, and one of the rules in the official guides to this sort of thing is to refrain from digging along the fence/borders of the burial ground. The reason is because infant/small child deaths were so prevalent, that often there’s a line of small, unmarked graves in these…

Aw c’mon, there are plenty of unplanned but ultimately much loved babies who would have been announced to the world in those tones. Getting all broken up because your dumb arse mother was disappointed to find herself unexpectedly pregnant is just a way for an angsty teen to beat their mother up anyway they can.

“A suit is also contemplated against the shooter, whose recklessness created the havoc.”

i think the “do literally anything else” was actually a helpful comment. Its unfortunate that you had to go through those things but the interest you could potentially need to pay from a payday load effectively keeps you in debt. I’m not saying you had other choices. But i have met people that had other choices and…

IUDs can get expelled, that’s what she means by the term ‘rejection.’ It’s definitely a thing that happens relatively frequently so there’s no need to be condescending just because she used a slightly improper term. And why would you think she had an allergic reaction to it? That’s much less likely than a simple…

“And as with every other issue, we’re choosing to intentionally ignore scientific consensus.”

He's probably just trying to get custody. If the laws in Australia are similar to the US, a breastfeeding mom is automatically going to have an edge in custody proceedings while nursing.

I feel like the simpler answer is to switch the “opt in” system to an “opt out” system, so people who feel opposed for specific reasons will have to go through the effort to not donate (which they will, because they care for their own reasons) and everyone else will automatically be opted in. That way good donors who…

You can get turned down for adoption for any number of reasons. It’s not a 100% chance, not by a long shot.

His typical meal would include three orders of steak fries, three orders of coleslaw, two 40 oz beers, an entire bottle of ketchup, and seven half-pound burgers. This was in the late-nineties, and the check would total around $13 or so. And he would leave a generous $2 tip for your troubles.

3 months != 3 days.

I will never understand the name Boston Pizza. I rep my hometown pretty hard but we do not have good pizza.

Are the male servers *also* required to wear high heels?

Build-A-Bear Workshop calls their in house counsel “bearisters”. I find that amusing, but I also feel kind of embarassed for them because it’s on their emails and letters to other lawyers...

Completely. They also have to turn the conversation around so they’re the center of attention. They are this guy:

So, enlighten us, MRAs: How are women supposed to know which of you fucks will pull this on them or not?
