Yup! I sew too and I know that a person isn’t a maker as soon as they ask why I don’t sell anything I make (I make soap in addition to sewing and knitting).

At least the male perspective wasn’t, “Gosh, it’s so dangerous talking to women these days, I think I’ll just avoid them entirely.” Small victories?

And yet people expect hand knit goods (often 16 hours of work) to sell for Target prices. It’s why I don’t sell anything I make.

PSA: Email yourself your burner key! I’m always surprised when I hear this. Gmail is forever!

And they probably told you that story like it was such a lark.

Ha! I thought square-face was Franco. Meet The Parents DeNiro was the best DeNiro, no question!

Oh, but he wants her to be more mature, haven’t you heard? See, he wants the maturity of a peer, but the body of a 25 year old. Poor men, they just can’t have it all, can they?

I know we’re talking about the square-faced man, but Meet the Parents DeNiro is dead on with that squinty, scrunched up face.

These people and their cognitive dissonance is astounding. I once had a woman tell me about how she hid income to qualify for Medicaid and then in the same breath said that it was the illegals (her word, never mine) who are really taxing the system.

The craziest thing about immigration attitudes in America is that Americans are the most entitled people on the planet, I guarantee you that if those immigration hardliners had to sneak into another country to get better care for their sick kid not only would they do it, they’d feel righteous about it.

I used to work at a cancer center and, listen, people are the same people that they always were when they have cancer. In other words, if you’re likely to throw this against the wall when you’re healthy, you’ll throw it against the wall if you’re sick, too. And cancer patients are no more likely to be depressed than…

That, and don’t eat things that could kill you.

I don’t watch, but maybe I should! Thanks for the rec.

Yup!

So I thought this show was going to be stupid and that I would hate it but I was wrong. So wrong.

I call those people “genuine delights” so as to not smear them with the smarm/charm brush. Warmth just radiates off of some people, it’s true.

As a rule, I harbor a low-level distrust for charming people. Chef Good Hair is too charming by half.

The only good joke was “with the grain.”

I might actually watch a show of Megan Kelly learning to cook and being terrible at it.
