Don’t trust him, he’s slicker than deer grease on a door knob.

I have a real life example of just such a thing happening. My SO’s sister is white and is a CSA survivor (suffered at the hands of a white family friend and her parents failed to protect her in many ways). Since she was old enough to date she has chosen to date MOC exclusively, has a black husband, with whom she has…

I don’t think it’s necessarily silly to criticize but still kind of low on the list of complaints about this administration’s treatment and general attitude towards POC. It was rude. If she was in a room of highly influential white guys I am certain she would be on her feet schmoozing and on her best behavior. I’m…

I felt queasy just reading the transcripts. That kind of stuff doesn’t come out of your mouth just because you have had too much tequila on a bad day.

Exactly, this is the administration that can’t figure out how to work the light switches. I doubt it takes a savant or super spy to fly under the radar there.

My favorite toast I have ever heard:

I drove for Uber very briefly about 2 years ago. The app would sometimes tell me to go the wrong way down a one way street. Most of the time the navigation was fine, but when it messed up it messed up bad. Luckily I knew the area and didn’t just blindly follow the directions.

I’d like to star this more.

My dad’s family calls those “Scarlet moments” as in “As God as my witness I will never ——— again.” My dad grew up poor and hoards toilet paper after having to use newspaper growing up. Going to the grocery store? You better pick up more toilet paper, and the good stuff, none of that 1 ply nonsense. His sister is now a…

This will definitely stay in the greys but I have had several instances, one quite recently.

He is for sure the zodiac killer and an alien wearing an ill fitting skin suit. The 100 cans of soup only confirms that. But at least he wasn’t badgering his human wife to make him dinner and took matters into his own hands.

I’m pretty sure 2016 got the best of me because when I read about this the first time I liked that he was all “cut the shit, Heidi, you don’t cook, and that’s ok, so here is what we are going to do...”

I saw an embarrassing number of Trump fans share this on social media days before the election because they thought this Matthew McConaughey “commercial” was real.

Awesome. I live about 40 miles from an outlet. Thank you!

They do but the fabric has faded and looks crappy too. That would be a great fix... if it wasn’t such a piece of shit in other respects as well.

Oooooh, thank you. I saw a Klaussner sofa on sale at Wayfair that I liked but I had never heard of the brand.

That’s what I dealing with now. I have shoved blankets under the cushions because they have collapsed and look like limp pillows. I’m not that hard on my furniture, it shouldn’t look this shitty.

I have been lusting after that Chesterfield for some time now.

Can we have a thread for sofa recommendations? I bought some shit from Ashley about 5-6 years ago and it has not aged well. I want a couch where the cushions hold their shape. Long enough for a person over 6'2" to lay and preferably with a seat depth of 24"+. I would like to spend less than $1500 but maybe that’s not…

Thank you for this. I worked in a male dominated industry and had very similar experiences. I read Fowler’s blog, and while what she experienced was awful and nobody should have that happen to them, this is somewhat standard fare. You only need a couple of complicit people with a little bit of power for stuff like…
