I am being hyperbolic. However, the difference is that once your account gets debited, perhaps fraudulently, the money is gone, and it’s up to you to get it back. Which may be easy, or may be not easy. With a credit card, the bank will put a hold on the charge and you are not liable for it until they investigate.

...never use a debit card.  Good advice in all situations.

CC Sabathia pitching 3 games in a row on 3 days’ rest to get the Brewers into the playoffs is one of the coolest baseball things ever

That pass was blinder than a Hong Kong protestor shot in the eyes by the Chinese government.

Jumpcut. It’s great. Is for Mac.

Appropriate for a bunch of jerk-offs.

Hetero male here with 2 kids (1 biological and 1 adopted). We have gotten the question about our “real” child. I’ve come to learn that, for the most part, people are so woefully ignorant about adoption or it’s just outside of their vocabulary that it doesn’t even cross their mind about the language they use when…

Too much punctuation, not enough misspelling.

“Fake news. I read on Breitbart that the caddy is a liberal, Trump-hating plant put in place at the club by the DNC. He changed the ball out without the President’s knowledge then leaked it to the press to make him look bad. No obstruction. No collusion. Build the wall. #MAGA”

I tell them it’s gonna hurt like hell.  When it ends up not being the end of the world, they talk about how brave they were.  It’s great.

Even if you don’t need them yourself, someone in your party will love you for having Pepto chewables. I try to keep 2 tubes in my travel bag, so I can give one to someone rather than making them ask when they need another dose.  The same goes for travel size Advil and Tums, and I always keep a Neosporin Neo-To-Go in…

A story about the worst idea for little kid party gifts.

A book exchange party sounds really fun.

“No gifts” isn’t nearly as rude as an invite one of my kids got that said (mother’s handwriting, of course) “My toybox is full! Cash or gift cards only, please!”

Ms. Manners would say it’s rude to make any reference to gifts at all on an invitation, and I tend to agree. A gift is something voluntarily given buy another person. Making a preemptive statement to try and control that process is rude.  

If no one says condoms this whole thread issa lie.

Please, please, please take these to heart, people.

For the love of God close down and pay the people scheduled. The high is supposed to be -12. Treat it like you would a hurricane.
