Seems like a less obvious manner of doing the same thing, but I guess that’s a fair option.

(Of course, this assumes the bar’s parking is already staffed, too. If it isn’t --- and you have to hire parking staff —- then it may be chasing good money after bad.)

Say you own a small brewery that doesn’t have a kitchen. Grilled Cheese Van Man proposes allowing him on the premises to sell delicious grilled cheese sandwiches. It works out for you, because less people close their tabs and leave the brewery just because they’re hungry. It works out for Grilled Cheese Van Man…

We’re talking about charging a cover to supplement the bar’s revenue due to some customers preferring tap water with their meal purchased from an outside vendor.

At that point... the bar might as well charge for water. It would seem a lot more fair than charging everyone at the door.

As expected, Republican Senator Josh Hawley from Missouri has introduced a bill that would ban the inclusion of “pay-to-win microtransactions and sales of loot boxes in minor-oriented games.”

Counterpoint: How many other national/global chains can you think of, that have no history of petty behavior?

“But in what universe would Yara Greyjoy allow a Northerner to be her king while the North gets to be independent?”

... The universe in which a Stark is also installed as King of the Seven Kingdoms?

If 1) the goal is to share political power relatively evenly between the Seven Kingdoms, 2) Bran is still the rightful…

“Focusing on making a game for a specific crowd and serving them well seems like it would establish a dedicated following that would come back for more.”

You got the tattoo Back When It Was Good. You shouldn't have any regrets, whatsoever. 

. . . I’m just gonna come right out and ask, do you write regularly in any capacity? Because that was some massive Kinja.

His influence on events since leaving that cave has been subtle, but ultimately, instrumental.

1. Leave my goldfish out of it.
2. I forgot what we were talking about. 

Lifehack - American cheese properly stored lasts for 6 months. Always keep a pack in the fridge for cheese emergencies.

I never thought a sandwich could be described by a sound -- until today. 

“By ignoring reality so you can pretend a corrupt corporate shill is someone less evil than a Republican corrupt corporate shill.” 

It also helps to make yourself memorable at the front desk, from the moment you check in. I suggest show tunes. (The number of songs you’ll have to sing and wardrobe changes will depend on how busy the hotel is.)

There’s a difference between writing a character to sound or act like Sgt. Apone, who was badass, and Robert Downey Jr.’s character from Tropic Thunder, who seemed like a meta-characture. My hope is they’ll nail the right distinction here. (How they presented Sazh gives me some hope.)

It’s not as if someone doxxed her. She could have written a private e-mail or called WMATA.

Instead, she chose to publicly humiliate someone under her own name, blue check mark and all. Voluntarily. On Twitter. Then purposefully tagged WMATA not only to get their attention, but to group her tweet in with any tweets…

Pissed enough to go out of your way to risk endangering another person’s job?

Born and raised in the metro area, and your context isn’t inaccurate — but there’s being pissed, and then there’s being petty as hell.

Yeah, that worker has been positively identified as someone who, herself, chastizes, scolds, and even expels commuters from the train for — oh wait, that never happened, and you’re ascribing unhappiness with a WMATA policy to one employee you’ve never met in your life, whose role at WMATA you don’t know, and whose…

Good grief.
