Brand new things get washed separately in case their colors run.

Honestly you gotta be a little baby-brained to get bent out of shape over POS tip prompts. Like, use your head. No, the corner store that sells chips and cigarettes does not actually expect a tip, they’re clearly just saving money by paying for a prepackaged POS system.

It was sure new to me to be called “Miss Sybann” but I got used to it and it certainly doesn’t sound uneducated when it’s common. 

I’m a martial arts teacher, and as part of it all senior ranks are “Sir” or “Ma’am” both as a connection to tradition, and a sign of respect for their rank. I also address *all* my students with such.

This obviously caused a problem when a trans student started. I sat down with the student, explaining that we used…

and quarters! for car washes, parking meters, and other tiny annoyances out there.

My grandfather attached a empty metal film canister to the bottom of the removable ashtray in his 1966 Dodge Dart arm rest. That’s where he kept a $50.
None of those things exist anymore.

Yeah, if you can’t afford a $500 emergency...you’re not going to afford having $500 cash on hand in case of, you know, an emergency

Coastal Elites. God I hate whoever came with that dumb term. It’s a snarl-word that means “those people over there, you know, the source of evil”. Yet never seems to apply to coasts down south.

this guy’s approach has been debunked by experts a long time ago though

Millan has been proven, multiple times, to just be a charismatic fraud.  None of his bullshit means anything beyond what should be common sense when dealing with animals, and a LOT of it (like his bullshit about being the “leader” of your “pack”) is particularly harmful and outright false...

I find Ceasar milans methods interesting. For a dog expert he routinely ignores a dogs emotions, and even if a dog is showing signs of stress, he keeps on pushing the dog, causing even more stress. There is a phenomenon called trigger stacking where a dog accumulates stress and eventually snaps. You dont see this with…

Milan is an abusive creep - never take dog advice from this man. He is horrible to animals

Is there something about running a company that turns people into complete monsters or are complete monsters just naturally drawn to run companies?

I make overnight oats with Trader Joe’s muesli. Much better than just plain oats.

I also use kefir for the liquid.

Having used the vacuum cleaner to quiet a crying baby, I am of the opinion that the noise isn’t so much soothing the baby (you have to be in the same room so it’s loud), as it’s breaking a positive feedback loop. Sorry for the engineering speak, but what I am trying to say is that the baby gets stuck in its crying…

Using a vacuum to suck air out of storage bags is a game changer for longer term storage of blankets, towels, sheets and the like, or packing stuff in a small suitcase. They make special bags for this, but you can even use a regular ol’ trashbag (clean, of course) for this and tie it once it’s compressed the contents.

Sure it will. Kicking in most doors is easy and relatively quiet. It’s one quick thud noise that may or may not get neighbors attention, but is easily dismissed, unlike the distinctive sound of breaking glass.

No

“I don’t know why you would cook those paper-thin slices of wonder.”

Because you don’t want to eat the pizza you put them on raw. And I mean the kind of pizza you use the artisan fresh mozzarella and the basil-seasoned pureed San Marzanos to make.
