Definitely, it can be any field that you don't use regularly. BPM is something I would never fill in, so it's safe for me to fiddle with.

If you're going to do that, skip the extra step and do what I've been doing (though, your way is faster, so gonna try it!)..

I'm right there with you. Middle school was what I would identify, as an adult, as 'a neverending personal Hell'.

I'm on board. I would totes read this, it'd be bad-ass!

I worked at OG for 3 years and very little was frozen or out of a bag. Now, Applebee's, yes. Soups, sauces, everything from a box, bag, or powder. It's been a while since I last worked at OG, but for a chain restaurant, I was very impressed with their food prep. Soups and sauces were made fresh daily, from scratch.…

I worked at Olive Garden for 2+ years in a small town. One day, I had a table of four and as I was taking their orders, a young woman asked, "Is there meat in the meat sauce?"

I worked at a restaurant that served breakfast and brunch. There is a surprising number of otherwise worldly-seeming people that have no idea what you're talking about when you ask how they want their eggs done.

My first thought upon reading the headline was that the author couldn't possibly be female. With a name like Kate, I guess I was wrong, so now I suspect that you've been one very lucky lady in terms of online dating.

Trust me when I say that this is not a 'new trend' by any measure. This bullshit has been happening…

I worked at a preschool and there were a brother/sister pair that obviously came from a disturbed home life. The 3-year-old boy in my class, J, in particular had anger issues and an eye-popping vocabulary for a kid that age. He brought "motherfucker" to school, which a very sweet girl took home and we got a call from…

I'm sorry, all I heard was "I didn't actually comprehend what you wrote, but I like to jump to conclusions as an excuse to be a dick unnecessarily on the internet! I am a witless troll."

I'm completely with you, dude. I'm from CA, but I lived in VA for a few years. My then-girlfriend was late to the airport in DC, so I was speeding. I had no clue about the reckless driving thing until I got pulled over, clocked at 81 mph, and slapped with a reckless driving charge and court date. So much about this…

Black bears are not always black. :) The color of their fur varies from blond to black. (source, with bonus: how to tell grizzlies and black bears apart)

I'm in the 'too much eye contact for some people' camp. I like eye contact, it doesn't freak me out, and I'm always observing people for micro-expressions and such that will fill me in on how they really feel.

I read about this like 10 years ago, and they called it 'the power stare'. You look at the nose bridge area between their eyes or eyebrows, and it's really weird for people because it looks like you're looking them in the eyes in a super intense manner cause your eyes don't move. It's fun to try on people to watch…

I agree that this is a huge blunder on the part of Shutterfly. Many of us will blow it off as spam, but it's going to be an unwelcome blow to the rest. I imagine, if I'd lost a child or was unable to have children, it would feel like a gut-punch to receive this email.

Am I the only one that's tried compressed air on every possible thing containing particles and/or crevices? I find ridiculously fun.

A friend of mine died suddenly last year. She was ill, but expected to have much more time, so it was a shock when she passed. She'd moved a couple of states away, basically to spend her last days with family, and had been not using FB.

One of our close friends notified me via phone call, but otherwise, I would have…

I'm all for disdaining duckfaces and pointless selfies, but this actually has a root in fine arts. I'm kind of confused about why a digital still life is considered a bad thing, because that's basically what this is. A still life is a carefully arranged scene, completely under the control of the artist, and it's meant…

I agree. I've been there, too. One completely unbelievable lady who behaved like the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland wound up being a professor at a fairly prestigious local university. I felt really bad for her students.

I pray to the microbial gods that this is true. Please let it be true.
