Mmmmm, deep fried abortion.

I think the thing to be considered here is the expectations of appropriate attire in a business situation. Men are expected to at least wear pants, dress shirt, and tie in business situations while a woman is not. I would love if it was socially acceptable for a man to wear fancy shorts and a fancy short sleeve shirt…

I whole-heartedly believe that the people who feel warmest should be catered to in any shared-space. If you’re cold you can put on more clothes. If you’re hot you are limited as to how much you can take off.

That’s me! I’m comfortable around 65 in the winter and drop to when I go to bed. I do raise the temperature if I know someone is coming over, because it’s not fair to keep them freezing. Summer kills me. I was keeping the house at 75 but then the humidity got out of control and I dropped it to 72 and I feel really…

This is how I feel, too. I’m female, but I’ve always been ridiculously sensitive to heat (I’m also overweight, but the heat sensitivity long precedes that). Cold I can deal with pretty easily—put on more layers! Wrap up in a blanket!—but short of air conditioning, with heat you’re just stuck. Not to mention that while…

like if my house and room could be 60 i would probably still get hot.

If I am butt naked, I will start sweating without any effort exerted above 73 F, add normal clothes into the mix, and it’s about 71 F or so. My preferred indoor temperature is around 66-68 F or so. Meat lockers are comfy. I’m a 5’10 120lbs dude with no thyroid problems! Please, don’t melt me :(

Don’t take this the wrong way, but I eagerly, EAGERLY await the commenters who will try to give you shit for this once this gets shared. They have no idea what they’re in for.

I am the mother of a child with Aspergers. Though he’s quite chill and polite now, he alternated between an angel and a fucking monster from the time he was born until he was four. Lest you think I’m exaggerating, he exasperated pretty much anyone who had to deal with him during one of his meltdowns.

I live in Maine and have actually been to this diner. I think the important thing to know about Marcy’s is that it really is a hole-in-the-wall. There are maybe 5 tables and one counter that might seat a dozen. It is tiny and cramped and hot (because the griddle is 3 feet from the counter), but the food is delicious…

Weekends off are THE SHIT. And schedules predictable beyond maybe a week. I will never forget the glory of moving from retail customer service to stock, where our schedules were dictated by the never-changing delivery schedule.

It's silly, really — most elected Democrats are there to help the very rich too.

Hey, if you’re drunk enough, you don’t care what your food tastes like. I live a few blocks from a DC neighborhood where the go-to food choice after a night of drinking is the jumbo slice.

It’s not like pitchers aren’t ambi-turners. So the back-turned part could be luck really; if the catcher’s throw is to his right he might turn that way. The real thing he was looking at, most likely, was the catcher’s throws themselves. That was a lazy lollipop that spent about 1.3-1.4 seconds in the air. Billy…

Dave,

“I wish I’d ordered a something in a bigger glass. Who is the bar back?”

On one hand, fuck this guy. Fire him if he doesn’t want to do his job.

And goddammit, can we please stop rising for “God Bless America” in the seventh? It’s not the national anthem. I’m not getting off my ass twice in one game to fellate the flag again.

When I was in college, one of my go-to-study foods was dipping graham crackers in can of cream cheese frosting ..or even better, if it was the right time of year, Thin Mints in cream cheese frosting.

Take it from a Seattle guy: this is a bullshit scare-tactic. The NBA uses Seattle in the same way the NFL used Los Angeles for 20 years. They have no intention of moving a team here, because they know the best way to get new buildings for everyone is to leave Seattle open and make threats that local politicians will…
