Any time I was in a public location with a lot of other people, I’d wear one.  The train, the subway -- I’ll never be mask-free again. 

The keurig one.. nah. It’s basically keurig coffee but the water filterered through slower and less of it.

Yes. Yes, yes, and yes some more. And that she KNOWS this is why he has an issue with her sister means it’s been discussed — a LOT. So I wonder how her husband treats her, and how that affects the way she sees her own body. What she’s clearly saying is that her husband wouldn’t love her if she gained weight. I wonder

I periodically had to keep reminding myself that I wasn’t high when watching this movie, because the most minor scenes would drag on endlessly, and for no reason at all. It was a movie in desperate need of a good editor.

This made me barf a little bit.

I don’t mean the job itself -- like another commenter above, I agree that some people THINK it’ll be easy, then actually start teaching and realize that it’s very, very hard.  My comment was more about the “easiness” of choosing it as a career choice because you don’t have to deal with the “what will I actually DO

I had a teacher for AP Calculus — college level calculus being taught to high school students — who religiously demeaned us for asking any questions.

ALL OF THIS, YES.

I also think, though, that the decision to be a teacher is “easy.”  A lot of kids from school were going to be teachers, because they didn’t know what else to be.  You go to school and at the end  you get a certificate and you get jobs as a teacher.  It’s more challenging if you go to school and get an English lit

My sisters are both teachers. One of them genuinely wanted to be a teacher because of a really bad chemistry teacher we were stuck with in high school — basically she wanted to show kids that chemistry wasn’t a nightmare. The other one? After 10 years in restaurant management, she went back to school to get her

I even understood as a kid that many, many teachers become teachers even though they absolutely hate children. It’s insane.

This just reminded me of the “how frozen do I freeze it?” commentapocalypse article from the old Deadspin days. Sigh.

I’m allergic to just about all fruits and vegetables when they’re raw, but once cooked I’m fine with most of them.  It’s really irritating.

I’m surprised by how much one toilet can differ from another.  I moved into a new house a couple of years ago. Mostly the toilets are fine.  But the one in the master bath is.. problematic.. in that the interior curve of the toilet ... catches a lot.  It’s always filthy and gross and makes me feel like I’m an animal.

I had a Cafe for a couple of years, because I’m not a coffee drinker, but I AM a latte drinker. (I know, don’t yell.) The Cafe is... passable. BUT what you don’t realize is that all it’s really doing is stirring up the milk, and it doesn’t aerate it very well. The bonus side is that it DOES heat up the milk while it’s

I’m so, so sorry this happened to you. But it’s so brave of you to keep trying for love! It shows they didn’t break your spirit. All my best wishes to you that you find the love you deserve!

Used in conjunction with gaslighting, this is often a way people get sucked into becoming the “other person” in extramarital affairs, too.

Years ago, this happened to me. A man constantly showered me with praise every time he saw me, constant compliments, including nonstop references to how I was prettier, smarter,

Yep, because no way he’d do it in a way that made him suffer.  I’d been betting an OD on Xanax or something where he’d just fall asleep in his nice, cozy bed.

I had to go look him up so I was sure I remembered what he looks like. I’m neutral on the subject of Matt Dillon. :o) I don’t find him compelling, but he’s not UNattractive.

Right?? They have PEGGY, but no King George?  Bah!
