I maintain that anyone who objects to the word moist has never baked a cake. There is no better word to describe a perfectly baked cake, and I will fight you on this.

Same here - they’re awesome. You can set your own pace in checking stuff out, bag how you like, and don’t have to stand there while the cashier makes obligatory chit-chat because that’s what they’ve been told they need to do.

I don’t feel bad for Blockbuster, because I remember its role in the demise of independent video rental stores that came before it.

I never comment on this site, but I will today because this is the first (and only) time I might know something others don’t. My parents were both professional orchestra violinists for more than 30 years in a very prestigious orchestra which shall remain nameless. I grew up hearing a lot of conductor jokes, to wit:…

It always blows my mind when someone has worked in the food service industry, then acts like a complete fucking asshole to restaurant workers. What a dumbass.

Someone who was a 10-year-old fifth grader on the playground in 2003 is plenty old enough to be an adult writer now. Fact-checking the details of someone else’s emotional experience feels like missing the point.

you’re going to need some palette cleansers

You were trying to get a loan secured by just the property you were buying, where the loan amount was presumably pretty close to the value of the property. If you were trying to borrow $300k to buy a house for $500k, and you had $4M in pretty readily valued assets, $300k in debt against those assets, and $300k in cash…

Putting the same all-in-one spice on everything is the opposite of diversity.

“instead, this is better phrased as “our food didn’t come out together.””

Cool, but that’s not what he’s complaining about. 

It was supposed to be a relaxed romantic night out, and our dinner was over in an hour and 15.

That’s not really true, if they have bad loans, you likely don’t assume them. Some businesses go under because of incorrect pricing, or too many “deals”.
