Pretty much every time? The concept of making an ex jealous is as old as relationships themselves.

New Orleans is an incredibly cool place, and the cost of living is a lot lower than Atlanta (rent, anyway). De facto pay raise.

Offset by John C. McGinley in peak form, often doing the slapping.

With a sale of the company the preferred exit of venture capital firms (replacing the IPO), this is especially true of tech businesses. It's incredible how quickly the big tech companies have become oligopolies.

I honestly can't imagine wanting to make your first serious relationship a triangle. Regardless, if that's her personality type then she's fooling herself if she thinks a poly relationship if for her. This sounds like she signed up for the cool points.

There's no substitute for life experiences. 1. Don't proclaim yourself to be in love too quickly. 2. Don't swing too far in the other direction by ignoring your feelings. Knowing where the lines are with both of those can't be learned academically.

Idiotic directives at that. "You know what simplify our already-beleaguered business? Buying some IP from a bankrupt company and supporting our own commenting system, instead of a battle-tested off-the-shelf service!"

The Discus business was mostly login-related. I'm not liking the sound of the actual functionality of Kinja (which I've never used) one bit. No nested comments? What year is this??? It's going to destroy our ability to communicate.

If you had a good experience the first time and just tell her why you're just now reaching out, I think the risk of getting shot down is minimal. Ring her up.

I think a lot of people want these arrangements, which have become more visible and accepted, to be right for them, only to discover that they really aren't. Especially someone so young that they still succumb to puppy love. Reminds me of girls I went to high school with who couldn't shut up about how mature they…

I'd say occasionally more nuanced, but regardless he's right in this situation.

I've always wondered if infidelity is baked in to societies with arranged marriages. I'm going to guess the answer is yes for the men, no for the women.

I finished elementary school in '84 and that was definitely a prominent game among my friends. As was calling another guy any number of permutations on queer for essentially no reason whatsoever. I honestly don't hear it these days when I eavesdrop on my son and his friends, which is certainly progress.

When I was first out of college I found the coed sports leagues to be a great way to meet people. Beer-league softball especially.

That's similar to the advice I give to guys who say they have a hard time talking to women. Just talk like they're a friend or colleague instead of trying to come off as witty or charming all the time. Ask a few questions about them and let her talk. People put too much pressure on themselves.

Oh yeah, forgot about that one. It's gross but unless a kid ends up sick due to something growing in the piles I have a hard time calling it abuse. I had a friend growing up whose parents were major league hoarders, mostly newspapers and magazines. The house smelled musty but I my knowledge his and his brother's…

I'm getting a big laugh that Discus is dumping threads off this comments section. Vindictive bastards, aren't they?

Into the double digits at last!

I'm going to be creating like 100 jobs. No one will get paid, which actually makes it similar to AVC!

If you're listening with anything other than earbuds - full headphones, car stereo, home stereo - the sound of compressed digital is inferior. ??
