I always thought this was an awful story to make a cartoon about.

Amen! It’s tough when you have a boss who thinks more work is better work. You can’t really point out to them if they were doing their job better, they’d be managing it well within a normal work week. So much of this extra time is spent making more work.

The best negotiation ever. Just ask the grocery concierge.

Do I have to fly with the monthly reports? Or can I just leave them at home?

Our main requirement when we got a car for our teenager to drive was a manual transmission. I felt it was important for him to learn how to drive one, but also, you can’t have anything in your hands when you need two hands to drive.

Thank you! I can swim, but as I’ve gotten older, I find it harder to take breaths while swimming. I got myself a swimmer’s snorkel, which definitely makes it easier, but I still need help building myself a workout. Thanks for the tips here.

The beach house we rented a couple of times has these in the bedrooms, on the wall above the dresser. It’s great for charging stuff. Brilliant.

They also announced the shopping cart racks will now accept two dimes and a nickel.

Stiffing the server is never the answer.

Giving a shit about what you eat and what you look like. (Not what you feel like). My mother even gave up cheese and eggs because she thought (wrongly) they would make her fat. She was very thin, but still ate a boring rotation of foods and kept herself from the things she loved. She died of a fucking brain tumor at…

Kind of hard to hear/see the map directions when it’s in there.

The incident allegedly started with a fight between Medina and his then-roommate Josh Sutter.

Wow. This is what should appear in the dictionary under “First World Problems.” I mean, it’s cool. But really? Why?

No doubt he and his supporters believe he is a patriot who loves America.

I am no longer ashamed of my age, shape or flabby arms. Aretha sings for all of us. This is the greatest thing I’ve seen in such a long time. What a great way to start the day!

I’ve found that bouncing myself a bit makes the elevator door close. Something about it makes the elevator think someone has just entered again, I guess. It may be a placebo, but that’s OK, too.

I smear butter all over the inside of a pyrex custard cup, break the egg into the cup and dab the yolk to break it slightly. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cover with a plate, put it in the microwave and cook on high for about 30 seconds. Check the egg and put it in for another 20-30 seconds on medium power. Should be…

Is this just to keep you from opening new tabs?
