There are about 70 breeds, but they are all considered the same species.

What in the world does Santa have to do with Christians? Here’s another idea that worked great for our family. Just be honest with your kids and be open about the fact that Santa is just fun pretend play. Voila! No lies, no secrecy, no horrible moment of realization. Guess what, they still love Christmas without…

Smaller women can buy casual clothes in the boys department much cheaper. My mother has been doing this with polo (and Polo) shirts forever.

I think they mean when searching for stuff online - decorations and such. Many things are interchangeable, but marked up if it says "wedding" in the title. Basically, if you want a thing, search for the thing using the least specialized words. 

And the photo doesn’t show anything that is ever aborted in ANY instances unless it is dead or not going to live and will kill its mother as well. Zygotes, embryos, and early-stage fetuses are completely different than the viable fetuses shown. Stop endangering the lives of women just because you don’t understand how…

It’s really not about stinginess though. I think most people are fine with tipping whatever they’re expected to tip.

Right on.

Thanks for this—I don’t have the time to try to hit 10K on most work days. I really think these notions that “if you aren’t moving at a certain level or in a certain way, it isn’t helpful” needs to be done away with. You can even see it with some of the comments here, that walking isn’t exercise, etc.

Walking is an exercise, just a very low energy exercise. I walk for 2 hours straight on weekend. That ends up to 10 mile walk. My legs are somewhat sore afterwards. Absolutely an exercise.

Tell her you did hold the door for an attractive woman, “but them some other person/people followed after you.”

Door holder killers as a woman are:

I immediately ignore the ones that mention they were given the item or a discount on it. I don’t care how strongly they insist their view was not skewed, I don’t buy it.

FIVE STARS - What a great article! I recently made the decision to visit Lifehacker.com for my reading needs and the wonderful people at NICK DOUGLAS and LIFEHACKER met all my expectations and then some! I really enjoy how the article said “ The kind of flaw only an idiot would notice or complain about—exactly the…

But people will notice if a centerpiece keeps them from talking to other people. Tall centerpieces need to die.

On short haul flights the call button should be used only for “emergencies” as flight attendants are up most of the entire flight and its easy to just ask one for assistance as they walk by. However, long haul flights are entirely different beast, and I have used them for drinks or anything like that.

If the button isn’t supposed to be used to order a drink, then why does it have a picture of someone holding a drink?

What’s the alternative though? Get up to ask them? You’re not allowed to get up during a fair chunk of the flight, and for much of the rest of the time you’re going to cause more problems by getting up than by just calling them over (getting in the way of beverage service, other passengers, etc.).

This is a recent redefinition of use of the call button. In the early days of flying, the button was to call for service and the attendants would drop by and ask what you needed or wanted.

For a large segment of the disabled community, paper straws won’t work “just fine.”

I am one of said people who actually needs straws in order to drink anything. Each time I have brought this up anywhere discussing the issue, especially Reddit, I was essentially told “tough tits”. Like, I get urging people to use less straws, and making it the standard to not give them to everyone, but full out…
