What about Elevenses?

You’re right - a lot is missing here. While waiting for the rep and the lawyer, my mind would’ve been calculating how that severance offer compared to unemployment (assuming that position qualifies). If it was even close, I’d make them fire me and document the reason (if they have to give cause in VA). That keeps TPTB…

Let the marketing and ticket sales begin! I wound up donating, which was a lot less work.

Let ‘em go ahead. We know they fail the second part of that quote, because they show us the crappy content of their character on a regular basis.

I researched this when stuck with a property that was impossible to sell. My state makes you follow lottery regulations for raffles. Organizers had to draft rules for the contest with an impartial way to pick the winner and handle any proceeds. For real estate, all of the usual fees, taxes, and procedures also had to…

The thought of any Fox “News” pundit trying to follow a logical argument always reminds me of this scene:

I don’t see it as an insult, but the way Bow’s father keeps flirting with Ruby, Sumpter makes me wonder if there’s room for a young version of Ruby in the show.

you might encounter some pedantic snob this weekend who’s going to try to tell you that drinking Guinness on St. Patrick’s Day is super cliché

that first conquest with the Hammer Time in her feet was Lela Rochon!

“In America, white people get a better education.”

I had to fight in my senior year of high school to take a class that was “no longer available.” After my parents got involved, they finally just gave me the materials, but I had to sit in the junior-level classroom doing self-study all year. I made sure to ace that shit, too, but it makes me mad to think back on how…

Since Hallmark has a track record of killing off characters in their shows, you picked a good network for the upcoming tragic biopic! Who knows, she might get better ratings than Martha Stewart and go beyond cable channels:

I’m going to go ahead and assume all US health insurance companies will label this treatment as experimental (and therefor not covered)

It’s a Black & Decker Toaster Oven & Broiler.  It has elements above and below the rack, so toast doesn’t have to be flipped.

This is why I use a toaster oven. There are no gaps, and the color is the same on both sides.

It reminds me of Brian Regan complaining about cranberries. Now we’ve got craisins. I don’t want to know what they’ll decide to pair mayo with next...

It’s good that you’ve paid attention to what you heard. After hearing those stories from women in all types of careers since childhood, there’s an astonishing number of people who refuse to believe that the problem is a common one. I’m not sure which makes me more angry - outright deniers, or victims from decades ago w…

Don’t know if you saw The Incredibles 2, but one character said something that explains why a company like that (and others like it with questionable owners, practices, and products) continues to operate and do well. Choosing to eat somewhere else (or to support other companies to put a harmful one out of business)…

The religious right operates a sort of media machine designed to produce disposable martyrs like her.

When its a Black kid... despite the fact that an activity took place off school grounds.. its cause for suspension and a black mark on their record. However when its a white kid.. <snip> They are free to do as they like.
