It died the day they killed George O’Malley. I know off-screen events precipitated that, but I never forgave the show for that.

New-Mex-Mex sounds like the name of a country from the future in Doctor Who. Cool.

Ah, I hear “shell” and I immediately thought of one of those hard curved ones. Such specificity in the hardness of tortillas overwhelms me, when I only know tortilla de maíz and tortilla de harina. I’ve seen “chimichangas” in menus in restaurants near the northern coast and in Cancun, and from what I gather, are…

I am a Mexican in Mexico City, and I genuinely wonder about both soft shell corn tortillas and Chipotle burritos. Those tacos have never made it down here and burritos are an import from Texas that you couldn’t get twenty years ago (I had my first one when I was about 18! I’ve become a fan since.) Also, I’ve never…

I can’t drive either, and I’m the man, which has led to some arguments. As for everything else we developed a system, where she plans and I execute; she tells me what to pay every month and where and who to call to schedule and arrange. So I do all the actual appointment making, bill paying, phone scheduling, on top…

I developed my sense of comic book aesthetics through JR JR’s art, my definitive look for Punisher is his, as is my favorite X -Men scene ever (Cyclops proposing to Jean in a Thanksgicing issue) and I agree... His style looks jarring working at DC, and I’m not sure why. The capes, maybe?

I had no idea this phenomenon existed, despite seeing it up close almost every day. My MIL is, not obsessed, but a permanent viewer of the channel. By this, I mean that it’s the only thing ever on the tv. Ever. My FIL enjoys it from time to time when he gets home, but can only stand it in short bursts.

I bet they seems as weird to you and your family as to any outside observer, huh?

Do they really have those billboards?

Thanks! And yeah, some times even all that preparation fails, and I have to pick her up and take her outside until she’s ready to come back and behave, but that’s rare.

That’s me and the wife, too. We have an almost four year old, and when we go out (twice a week,) we mostly go all out, and have at hand the following:

Not unless/until someone loses an eye, which is always a possibility.

I haven’t been to a mexican stadium in a while, but I recall security swarming offenders quite quickly, after others pointing them out, with the FMF even banning stadiums for a few matches of Liga MX.

Definitely. Hopefully those who did can be identified and dealt with swiftly. Those assholes make the rest of us look bad.

Uh, the broadcast showed a number of CR players shoving and headbutting the linesmen, who had to hide behind stadium security and their guard dogs.

Probably! I managed to get on the nerves of my father, brothers and wife. I might to wait until my kid is old enough to want to teach something to her old man. (She’s 4 now. It might be a long wait.)

Or learning to drive at all! An experience I’ve attempted at least three times since my late teens. (I’m 36 now.) The stigma is bigger than not knowing how to swim, bike, skate, shave and cook *combined*.

I can’t ride a bike myself either, and I feel no shame for it. Not being able to drive a car? Now that’s something the world doesn’t let you forget for ONE minute.

Being the youngest of five, where the rest of my sibs were 6,9(twins) and 12 years older than me, made me oscillate between feeling like an only child and everyone’s baby, which admittedly did weird things to me. I went from being overwhelmed with attention by everyone to being overlooked (there are no baby pictures…

Yeah, my dad worked at a mining plant, with big machinery, and tunnels and big big rocks being torn apart to bits! And.... I hated every minute of it. My 4 year old daughter, on the other hand, loves construction sites, and wants her own (pink, of course) bulldozer. So maybe that particular calling skipped a…
