Having a permissive parent doesn’t mean you were abused. It’s very easy to become a Mom and very difficult to know how to be a good Mom, especially if your own Mom didn’t know what she was doing. To say this is abuse seems unfair to those kids who are really being abused. Child abuse is not a catch-all phrase that…
Sorry if I confused you. Average or typical milk chocolate is 20-25 cacao. Dark chocolate does not have milk so it’s not “creamy” like milk chocolate but it certainly has more chocolate intensity. You can now buy milk chocolate that has 50% cacao (think of it as dark chocolate with milk added!) If you are a chocoholic…
I lived in Boynton Beach for a few years. How well do you know that little slice of Florida heaven?
I certainly haven’t thought about this guy for a long time and it’s only because of her that I’ve seen or heard anything about him. She represents what’s brought him fame; that’s the burn. She’s the swamp that he has to splash in order to get noticed. Without weirdos like her, he’d be anonymous.
You miss the point of Black History Month. Yes, Lincoln is our favorite president and yes, he’ll always be associated with the emancipation of the slaves, but Black History Month was created as a legitimate effort to focus on the many non-white Americans who have otherwise been ignored in American history class. Black…
I hope you realize that he’s not going to build a wall. That was a trick to get knuckleheads like you to vote for him. Admit it, you were conned.
The history of the Confederacy and the story of General Robert E. Lee are also part of American history. During Black History Month, the focus us a bit more focused, okay. It’s meant to be about Black Americans.
I like milk chocolate that is darker than your average than is typical (20-25 cocoa solids.) Milk chocolate is creamier and has that wonderful melt-in-your-mouth quality. Milk chocolate made with 50-60% cacao is fantastic. Semi-sweet chocolate morsels are also delicious.
Never ask a question that you don’t want to hear the answer to. Enjoy life in the grays!
You’re probably in the grays because of your inability to write a coherent paragraph. A series of phrases connected by ellipses is not a proper method of communicating in written English. I’d also suggest italics over all-caps: less aggressive and less annoying.
I’ve got a huge reading list, too, and I realized a while ago that I’ll never get through it, probably because I keep adding more books to it. A big part of this was learning that there are already thousands of books out there that I should read because I will really enjoy them. Also, to focus on “new” books is really…
For me, personally? Yes. You fight your battles and I’ll fight mine.
Wow, you sound really angry. I’ll bet it all can be traced to your lifestyle. Get a grip, already.
Why ask such a dumb question in such a public forum? Because you’ve heard/observed/read that some Americans like “sweet stuff,” you’re assuming all Americans do? All 300 million of them?
Not everyone’s workshop activities include power tools.
My doctor gave me a prescription to Zyban and it was remarkably effective. I never imagine I would have the willpower to quit after smoking for 25 years, but I wanted to. Zyban worked in a way I never expected and I remember how surprised I was over its effectiveness (I quit during the summer of 2000.) I talked my…
People who smoke or otherwise use tobacco, in so many ways, have been hugely detrimental to society. The fact that it’s unhealthy and causes innumerable health-related issues is only one part of the big and very nasty package. Your blanket statement explaining why health care is expensive is narrowminded and…
I have a couple LL Bean no-iron cotton shirts that are my favorite shirts ever. They look great and they’re very comfortable. Not as expensive as these shirts although I admit I bought them maybe 7 years ago (they are also still in very good shape.)

They sound neurotic. No alpha male to maintain order in the pack? Hope you don’t have neighbors that have to listen to this cacophony; I wouldn’t put up with it (I live in an apartment building. We have yappy little dogs here that don’t start making noise until 5:30 AM. Most likely puppy-mill born and as a result,…
