I can see how you can be mean to a cat, but how do you be just rude? Does she comment on its weight? Fail to send thank-you notes after it brings her a chewed-up lizard? Call it a nickname it doesn't approve of?

Sounds like their error was attempting to sell an entirely different product under the same name as another product but with a different price. Beyond being a bad business practice, it just doesn't make any sense. If they are really are that different and cost more to make, then don't say they're the same thing.

So the mens items which are just sized up with no additional changes to fabric, finishes, design or fit - stay the same price

I just hit a year without a ring and my scar is much less noticeable, though still there if you look.

Yeah, I was projecting myself on the age thing - I was 35. But at any age, that moment when you stop feeling self-conscious about the ring -scar is pretty epic - and not much talked about outside of divorce.

The woman in the white dress with the sweetheart neckline and the woman in the striped shirt don't look hella different. Though some of them are very different, there is also good lighting and professional photographers with airbrushing tools for the "after" photos. Even I, with no plastic surgery, would look very…

I would not have expected this to not be approved give other stuff I see on NYC transit (see boob job picture from the other poster in this thread).

My job had a secret shopper come through who complained an employee of the store was wearing a t-shirt, jeans, had piercings, and refused to help them with anything. That employee and the store both were given a very low rating because of that.

I once had a customer order the filet mignon with red wine demi-glace, but only after requesting that we substitute the red wine for a chocolate martini.

I had planned on bringing a beer-braised beef roast to a work pot luck. After I wrote it down on the "who brings what" list, my supervisor approached me and told me I would have to bring something else because "beer isn't allowed at the workplace, you know that, Amy!" No amount of telling her that after braising for…

Whenever my wife and I purchase comforters, we get two. So much simpler.

Ugh but in many European countries a Queen is really two twins pushed together yuck.

Amen. I had this talk with my younger sister recently after her and her husband stayed up all attempting to hash something out. Nothign got hashed out and they were miserable the next day. Angrier than before because neither one of them had slept. Sometimes your brain needs to process all sides of an issues,…

"Don't go to bed angry" is totally bullshit. You know what doesn't help you get through a rough spot? Being deliriously tired because you were up all night trying to sort through an argument or issue. And sometimes sleeping on it is the best way to cool off.

My mom says it not expecting your spouse to provide everything you need out of human relationships - for example, bank on your girlfriends for emotional support, because your husband might not always be your best bet. Your interests aren't always going to align - again, that's why your friends are important.

I can handle a secret shopper being mad about a toddler being illegally served beer-battered fish & chips.

Regarding secret shoppers: Editor's Note: There is no screening process. Any idiot can — and usually does — sign up for that job

I once had a friend refuse to eat a slice of lemon pound cake because I mentioned I'd used my homemade vanilla in it (like 2 tsp in the whole cake). She doesn't drink, and when she learned that my homemade vanilla is vanilla beans in vodka, she declined the cake. I explained that unless powdered vanilla is used, all…

The beer battered mystery shopper may be related to an acquaintance of mine, who would not eat beer battered anything when she was pregnant. "Guys, I CAN'T have any beer, because the baby will get fetal alcohol syndrome"
