Your grandmother is a gem. I assume that some of your shade talents came from her, because she used just two words when three were offered. In that space where a third unspoken word should be, lives the shade that is thrown at someone who is so unworthy of consideration that two epithets are enough.

The headline is misleading and appears like Johnny is the one suffering instead of the cast and crew, but I FTFY.

I’m sure you realize the selection of the town hall location was deliberate.

I should clarify: the Parkway isn’t closed yet, and it’s not the entire length. The NFL Draft is setting up near the Philadelphia Museum of Art and Eakins Oval, but there are lane closures already, so it’s a bottleneck when drivers have to merge into fewer lanes than are usually available. Also, as they are…

We don’t have Grant Park. We have plenty of parks, but they aren’t as close to Center City (downtown), and Philly and the NFL aren’t using them for the draft. The thing that is bothering a lot of residents (as mentioned in the article) is that the Benjamin Franklin Parkway is an arterial route in and out of the…

Incorrect. It’s Passover, and for wandering for 40 years in the Title desert, they get Israel’s spot. The 49ers get Somalia.

These are great points, and another obstacle for Republicans was their dogmatic insistence on reducing taxes. They don’t want to pay for any more benefits, so how could they promise this was a good bill that would save taxpayers money AND simultaneously provide better healthcare coverage? They couldn’t have both,…

Did you young guns take peyote before you posted this story?

Haha, definitely comfort food, but it’s not for everyone. My dad, who was born in the US of Cantonese descent, made congee (or “juk” as he called it) after Thanksgiving using leftover turkey to feed us on cold days. One probably wouldn’t find that particular recipe in China, but it was authentic because HE made it…

I had a co-worker from Kenya who had the same experience. Just because his English sounded slightly different from my English didn’t mean it wasn’t also his first language.

Thank you for clarifying this. The demographic shifts in both neighborhoods are interesting and this story could be confusing to readers unfamiliar with the area, without your explanation of the changes over time.

D’accordo, grazie della risposta.

“Forza Italia” has a sports history, but for some Italians, the phrase has a political connotation because it’s also the name of Silvio Berlusconi’s political party, and people who oppose him and his party would be less likely to say it. This is what an Italian cousin told me, anyway. Instead, they might say “Forza…

Yes, it stinks in the summer! I have experienced this and now I have a name for it. Thanks.

Paraphrasing someone else in this thread: You brought this on yourself.

It’s always open. But from 2006 to 2017, the water level in the lake was not high enough to flow over the lip of the spillway, so it was dry.

The Jezebel comment section is like SCOTUSblog for Shade Court - the place where Shade Court Watchers and Kara Brown stans debate the nuances of cases before rulings are handed down. I tend to agree with you because Munn’s post fulfills several conditions for shade: 1. pettiness: she could have stopped at “THANK…

That only accounts for a few ambassadorships, so he’ll also need his kids’ mistresses and his mistresses’ kids.

You may be 100% correct, but one facet of shade is that you can be talking to one person explicitly (Trudeau), while talking about other people implicitly (Trump & Trumpkins). I would assert that “You’re a successful father when your children turn out better than you,” can absolutely be shade if it’s widely understood…

Kristen was actively denying any of those things took place, while footage was interwoven showing each event. Whenever I see Kristen, I like to pronounce her last name “Doute” en français, as “douté”, because it reminds me to doubt every thing she says. It’s handy and saves time.
