You tell the kid to not play with fire; that doesn’t work. You sit the kid down and have a real conversation about the dangers of fire and everything that could go wrong and ask what they like so much about fire and try to deflect; that doesn’t work. You show the kid videos and images of what could happen and explain…

This is stupid. Study after study shows that physical discipline DOES NOT WORK. Even if you get some immediate obedience, it leads to more behavioral problems long-term. So it’s nothing like inflicting the pain of a shot in order to immunize or treat an illness. There is no benefit to the child, no matter how many…

Also, I just ran out of mayonnaise and would like to refill the entire jar with what I am able to scrape off of said dry bread. So please put just slightly less on there than usual, as it is a pint not quart jar.

And as for the markup, the delivery fees are plainly stated on the website. They’re not trying to screw you, they tell you exactly what their service will cost. If it’s too much for you, you don’t use their service. But don’t complain that you’re being charged by a company for performing a service you ask for.

Because it is as much (if not more) about being part of a cultural institution and family tradition as it is about subscribing to every piece of the Church’s dogma. For better or worse, very few people go searching for the religious tradition that best fits their personal views. They go to church, enjoy the community,…

Well then I’m sorry to inform you that Bud Light is white trash piss but just with a different kind of impurity.

Completely agree with you regarding the corn subsidy issue, but the health aspect doesn’t really come into play here given that >99% of that corn sugar will be converted to alcohol in the fermentation process (that’s what it’s there for). (Also, we’re talking about regular corn syrup (dextrose solution) here, not…

So you only liked roasty dark beers?  I guess those styles are not as widely available in swill-quality form, so yours is a decent a decent rule of thumb for avoiding shitty beer if you are otherwise completely unable to judge quality. But a little research or trial and error could lead you to a whole world of deliciou…

Unless you count rice as an impurity.

A-B’s not even talking about HCFC, just corn syrup, i.e. dextrose. And, regardless, the vast, vast majority of any type of sugars (whether derived from barley, corn, or rice (which A-B uses)) are going to be converted to alcohol in the fermentation process. So even if you drank, this ad wouldn’t have any particular rel…

I heard Gary Parrish of CBS make an interesting proposal for how to handle cases like this. Since it appears the kid is totally innocent but that rules were broken to influence him to go to Kansas, just ban him from going to Kansas and allow him to transfer anywhere else and play immediately. The kid doesn’t get…

I just bought a 1600 square foot 3-bed 2-bath house in good condition on 11 acres that back up to a recreational riverside rail-trail for $225,000. I recognize that small-town/rural living provides limited employment opportunities, but it does have its benefits if you can make it work.

Don’t listen to the pedants. They’re not even “technically” correct here. As I said above, “decimate” as commonly used simply no longer means to “kill one in ten.” If you look it up in the dictionary, it will usually provide that as a “historical” definition. As Webster’s explains “In its extended uses decimate…

Not really correct given modern usage. That word simply no longer means to “kill one in ten.” If you look it up in the dictionary, it will usually provide that as a “historical” definition. As Webster’s explains “In its extended uses decimate strayed from its “tenth” meaning and nowadays refers to the act of…

I’m going to set custom ringtone for my boss’s incoming calls that’s just the “No! No! No! Not this guy! Not this guy! Nooooo! Oh my god! You fuckin asshole!” portion.

Some of the animosity can probably be attributed to the fact that Booker went to Kentucky and Dieng to Louisville. No love lost there, as they say.

When it’s going into something that going to cook for longer than a few minutes, the press is fine. And if you’re only doing a few cloves you don’t have to peel before putting it in the press. The meat will squeeze out and the skin will stay in the press. Just have to chop the tops and toss it in.

Agreed. I was just trying to say that if a ‘99 has made it this far, you can be relatively safe in assuming that it isn’t a lemon and can confirm that assumption with pretty minor investigation into its maintenance history.
