Who the fuck bothers with shaving cream? I shave in the shower, get my neck and lower face nice and wet, turn around to face the mirror we have hanging in the shower, and go to town. I’m right-handed, so I start on my left and work my way to the right, then go back over areas that might have been missed in the first…

I go two to three times a day, unless I’m sick, then it’s a literal crapshoot. My gall bladder has been removed, so that definitely affects my poop times, and I probably don’t get enough fiber, but my poop doesn’t “line up at the gate” so to speak. So I’ll sit down, a piece will come out, a minute or two later,…

But there are those of us on the other end of the spectrum bring that average back down. I’m 32 and have broken, at most, 3 glasses since I turned 18 and set off on my own.

Then you’re not doing it right. How often do you go to the bathroom in a day? If I left after a minute, I know I’d be back in about 15 minutes because there would be more on its way. And while I don’t tend to make ooh and ahh noises while pooping, it definitely feels very good to get it out.

Actually, the best position to align your bowels is crouched (you can actually buy things to get you in the correct position on a toilet), but leaning forward a bit is the best approximation you can get on an average toilet.

Under the same options all around, the only real factor appears to be number of miles, which makes sense.

This is where we bought our car in February. I’ve linked to used cars of the same make and model as we bought, but all I can see are 2013 or older, so I’ve filtered to just the 2013. There are only 2, but they’re $20k and $21k. As I said, we bought our 2015 one new for $21k, and we saw 2014s for as high as $27k.

We’re not expecting exactly the same amount back, but as I replied to another commenter, when we bought our second Equinox this February, due to discounts and rebates, we were able to buy it for $21k. Similar used ones a year or two old were selling for $27k. But Cash for Clunkers was a while ago, and the number of…

I’m in WI. We were pricing Equinoxes just in February. We bought a new one for about $21k and used ones that were 1 or 2 years old were going for $27k. (Sticker price for ours was $29k, but after rebates and discounts, we were at $21k and we wouldn’t have gotten those on used ones)

I really don’t understand the vehemence on this. If I’m driving, I tend to move into a lane for a reason, and stay there unless there is a reason to move to the other lane. Examples of a reason to move: passing a car in my lane (left or right), entering/exiting highway, emergency vehicle on the shoulder, etc. Moving…

We bought a Chevy Equinox when shortly after our daughter was born because my wife’s car was about to give up the ghost anyway, and we hated bending over to put the car seat in the car (we’re both over 6” tall). We love it so much that when I totalled my car, we ended up buying another one. The trunk space is about…

Not necessarily. Since Cash for Clunkers, it’s actually been cheaper to buy new than used, though that’s changing as used cars are beginning to fill the market again. When my wife and I were looking at cars, the used version of the car we ended up buying was either the same price, or in some cases more expensive, than…

I think what gets people upset is that a good, high quality cut of meat is being cooked to the point where it is indistinguishable from a low-quality piece of meat.

I have almost the exact opposite experience at steakhouses. When I order steak, I order it medium rare, they confirm “warm pink center?” and I agree. Then it comes out, at best, medium, if not medium well. It’s gotten so that I almost order things rare, assuming they’ll cook it at least a step above what I order. I’m…

I’m definitely more introverted around people I don’t know, but when I’m around my friends/family, I get very extraverted.

I agree, and I don’t want a thin, plastic-y onion slice, give me a thick onion, beer battered and golden brown...heaven.

Do people not realize that it is a reference to a French cut? There are french cut green beans, too. The long, thin, angled-ended potato sticks are French cut fried potatoes...or French fries. Anything else is not a French fry.

Why would you bake with cold butter? Almost everything I’ve ever baked, or have ever seen baked has first warmed the butter, both melted or just warmed by the oven before being used.

I agree that a covered, angled pathway is cheaper and more efficient. The only potential argument I could see is if people didn’t want their walkways covered. For many people, walking outside means not walking under a roof. So, if the options are, inefficient solar walkway or no solar panels at all, the walkway is…

Could be. You’re technically in violation at 1 over, so they have every right to pull you over and ticket you, but in most cases, it’s more trouble than its worth because the consequences aren’t great, and while the cop is dealing with you, there may be someone going 12 over that would be more worth their time.
