Hey, we can learn. My Minnesotan self has, in the past 3 years, accepted black pepper as a spice. I’m 33.

This is an interesting write up, thanks for it. This guy is slimy.

I support a metric America!

Okay, at this point I’d like to see a non-hetero clerk or judge refuse to issue licenses to hetero couples due to sincerely held religious beliefs. Break up the monotony a bit.

I resisted, but yes. Full on Billy Sunday white Jesus for them.

Oh, she’s just using the Fox news version of balanced, which means jesus and bald eagles.

That was beautiful. All the congratualtions to you, Mark and Allen.

Caldiero looked like he was having actual fun on Stage 3. I am happy he won it rather than “cowboy ninja” or the guy with the Kenny G hair. Speaking of, the show would be so much better if they didn’t have endless backstory. That ruined the US Olympic broadcasts and wears out my mute button on ANW.

I can’t tell Damon and Affleck apart. Seriously. My brain just blanks them both out completely.

Fucking idiots. The park rangers work the state parks, so if you are in their area you either paid to get in or have a state park pass. The state parks are also a ways out of the way, lovely and secluded, so it makes no sense to meet at a state park for a work-related paperwork exchange. Meet in a parking lot or cafe…

The MN Garlic festival is rather awesome, but Cedar Summit Dairy, who did the good garlic ice cream aren’t producing this year or next. Instead a place called Cranky’s or something did this year and it was icky.

That garlic menu sounds amazingly delicious right now. I am actually surprised they didn’t throw on a garlic ice cream for dessert. They serve it at the local garlic festival and it can be surprisingly good!

Phase Eight (UK) has some really beautiful fit and flare dresses. My wallet hates them but the fabrics are just so nice.

Details?

So true. My little brother started his own business at 16 and 10 years later has a sterling reputation because he pays his bills and his people fairly, on time. Conducting your business like a real business isn’t optional.

I swear sometimes the hot ones like being gross (ass rippage, lack of showers, bad breath, spitting, etc) because they know they get more leeway (on occasion).

Sex farts are their own minefield. One of my partners was rather large-bodied and for what ever reason collapsed on me with his full weight, at which point gas was passed. He was so grossed out, and it wasn’t even loud or smelly. He also got mad when I laughed at him loudly and continuously farting in my bathroom. Not…

Right? And then

It’s okay, she donated her boobs and dignity to SCIENCE.

Here in Minneapolis, the cops are having a royal hissy fit about a chant that BLM protesters were using while marching on the State Fair on Saturday. That’s right cops, your hurt feelings over a mean chant are totally equal to anger over dead bodies piling up. Uh-huh.
