I always wonder why people are so willing to air their dirty laundry on social media. I mean, I know why but I still wonder. If I was minor celebrity, I feel like I’d want to maintain an inoffensive life-is-great persona online. But that doesn’t buy you spons and followers.

I ended up using my kitchen gloves in the bathroom where they are a lot more necessary. They are never going back to the kitchen.

Takeout takes away all that fun

And he has to say “rules and regulations” or “the thing” because he has no fucking idea what he’s talking about. He doesn’t know anything about being a US president, and yet here we are.

I am so excited for this movie. I grew up in this region and went to school and college with some Crazy Rich Asians (maybe not as ridiculously rich as the family in this book/movie, but still pretty damn wealthy). It will be fun watching this movie and connecting characters with people from real life.

“Maybe I’ve gone a bit far, but look at the positive side: this will help him clean his teeth. I think he hasn’t cleaned them since he became poor.”

Thank you. Seems like doing this on a hard surface is a recipe for disaster, though.

Okay, how do you do the plank-on-a-ball without faceplanting and breaking a few teeth?

He may have been a decent dude, but it seems like he might have been a bad roommate, if he wasn’t being communicative with you even before you cancelled. Bullet dodged any way you look at it. I can’t imagine dreading going back to my own home. Happy for you!

I’m sure it must have been frustrating for him, but you gotta go with your gut. Chances are, you saved yourself a lot of stress.

Yeah. We’re not “ready” at the start of a gathering because we still need to finish up the food so it’s fresh and hot when it’s actually time to eat. The first couple of people who show up sit at our kitchen counter with a drink and chat with us, and everyone is happy.

This is how we give directions in my home country too. Depending on the area, it’s just easier. The big mosque with the blue dome, the Hitachi billboard, the abandoned house on the corner that’s probably haunted, etc. All very valid landmarks that are impossible to miss.

Very strategic!

I’m always harping on about this same thing (not like my opinion matters). It boggles my mind how many powerful women with powerful names have kids with (just) their fathers’ surname.

When I was younger, I pronounced it Penny-lope (as in hope). English is my first language but I was raised in a country where English isn’t the first language, so I learned many words and names by reading and never heard them said out loud. I learned the correct pronunciation because of Penelope Cruz.

He doesn’t mention specific cities, but he names countries (Kazahkstan, Azerbaijan, Nambia, Senegal, UAE). Basically, countries that don’t get a lot of attention to begin with, as opposed to big food cities like Paris and Bangkok.

At the end of the video, he talks about maggot cheese. Worth a listen for that part…

I’ve also seen many memes that ask you to string together a few pieces of information (birth month, birth date, eye color, last digit of your phone number, etc) so that you can identify and post your stripper/band name or something equally inane.

Even before the cheating, I was wondering why not Kardashian as a surname. I don’t know much about this TT dude but I don’t think he’s as rich and powerful as KK. Given that this family’s entire brand centers on their name, it seems like they would have made the Kardashian sisters’ babies Kardashians too. Maybe the…
