All my life people have told me that red onions are sweet and delicious. LIES! They are foul and burn my mouth. They go at the bottom of the list for me.

It’s absolutely worth putting the time in. If you don’t, you’re probably overpaying.

Profit over people! It really is a mess and I don’t see it getting better. It’s almost like the whole thing needs to collapse and then people will finally wake the hell up and demand it be done like the rest of the world.

This is a great example of divorce not having to be ugly. People change, relationships change. They are navigating it and providing a united front for their children. My husband has that kind of relationship with this ex-wife. Divorced for 15 years now, they are the best of friends, and I have an equally great…

This hasn’t happened to me personally, but it happened to a friend. She was in the ER with pneumonia and when the bill came there was a fee of several hundred dollars for an out of network nurse. When she called the hospital all she was told was that there her insurance charges a higher cost for someone who is out of…

You have to go over your bill line by line and look at EVERYTHING. I had a 4 hour ER visit for a kidney stone, and somewhere along the way someone handed me an 8 oz bottle of water. It appeared on my bill as a $9 fee. When I questioned it, I was told that it was a ‘usual & customary’ charge. When I mentioned that I…

My step son was a difficult child. Defiant, willful, and never wanting to do anything no matter how it was asked of him. Now he’s an adult with twins boys that are almost 3. They won’t eat, can’t sit still, and spend most of their time screaming because they don’t get their way. My way of dealing with it - I just…

I’m glad she’s at a place in her life where she can recognize she needs help, and actively seek it out.

I get where you’re coming from, and I’m sorry it was so horrible for you. They are well aware of the LGBTQ community. I’m their grandfather’s husband. We’ve had open, honest, and age appropriate conversations about it. They are incredibly open minded and thoughtful for only being 11.

Sometimes, someone has to step up and be the bitch. Things don’t get done otherwise.

It’s ok to ask, as long as it leads to meaningful conversation. I do it with my grand daughters all the time, but I remind them that no matter what they want to be, they should always remember that they are women first. Women, daughters, sisters, friends.... those are things that their job can never define for them,…

That’s what I do. Sweetener goes in the cup first, then the hot coffee, then the half and half. When my other half makes it for me, he puts the sugar, creamer, then coffee, but the amounts are never right, and the temp is off. I end up making it again. Now, that man can make a mean cup of Cuban coffee....

I had a chance to take this when it became available for acne treatment in the early 80's. I had horrible acne, and my step-father, in his continual quest to be cruel, refused to let the dermatologist prescribe it. He was convinced that a 14 year old with no job or source of income, was somehow purchasing and…

I’ve looked, but I have no setting to control it. I find complaints about it back to at least 2012 on some Acura forums. The best suggestion is to get a blank track that plays automatically until you feel like playing something yourself. That doesn’t really solve the problem though. The only way is to set the stereo…

This has annoyed me for years. I just want the ability to disable the music autoplay in my car. Acura says it’s an Apple issue, Apple says it’s an Acura issue. I play something in the house. Get in the car and plug the phone it, and it starts to play the first song it finds alphabetically - regardless of what was…

No one wants to eat their dinner while constantly being bombarded by tiny flashes coming from all angles. It’s annoying. In a restaurant with a lot of glass and mirrors, it reflects all over the place.

If crowds aren’t your thing, don’t bother.

I’m sure she thinks it’s wonderful - she won’t ever be in a position to NOT afford childcare.

Good luck with that...

Just be aware and courteous. I have a friend who has been sober for 25 years. Any time she comes for the holidays, I point out any food that may have been prepared with wine or something so she can make an informed choice. She said she never drank for the taste, so she wouldn’t know if it was there by taste alone, but…
