It’s not nearly as metal as “Devils on Horseback”, but my wife bought some flowers for our garden over the summer, and I was trying to pretend to be interested so I asked about them, and apparently they’re called “Love Lies Bleeding.” Ooof. Downer flower.

I’ve come SO CLOSE so many times in my life to buying one, because convertible and because I loved Macgyver or some shit and it’s still imprinted on me 20 years later. But then I talk to pretty much any rational being who has owned one and they remind me that in the winter you might as well be sitting outside, hard…

Indeed. A good number of people buy Wranglers for who they want to be, rather than who they are. They then discover that, especially if you don’t live in an always-warm climate, they’re pretty terrible daily drivers / commute vehicles. (Probably newer ones are much better but still)

1910 here! We have ONE drawer in our kitchen.

Well I used to wash my chicken and whatnot until maybe last year when it came out (or at least came to my attention) that it was a bad idea, but I never felt that I really sprayed that much doing that either. I’m just trying to minimize risk, and I feel like ther’es a lot of weak links in the chain when it comes to…

I get the argument about not cooking raw chicken / turkey because it splatters around the kitchen, but how does that not also apply to washing the cutting board afterwards? I mean, I get that it’s less concentrated, but you’re still spraying raw bird juice around the kitchen right? (I don’t have a dishawasher).

It just seems like a very manual process that requires a lot of third-party help. Obviously no matter what you do it’s going to be manual unless your vet uses a system that you can tie to, but all the links in the chain seem open to a lot of user error.

We have three dogs, so we use a “home” vet, where she pulls up in a Winnebago (yes really) and does the exams and whatnot at our house (or in the camper, depending on the type of exam). We just switched to this new vet (our old one died, sadly), so I’m not sure how she is with records, but the old one was kind of hit…

Interesting, thanks.

Wait, so how does it get updates from the vet? Are you relying on the vet to send them the records every time your pet has an appt? Do you have to request another authorization every time? Why not just allow me to enter things by hand? Relying on any doctor’s office, in particular a vet, to provide this kind of…

Zero references substantiating. Every dictionary site I’ve gone to considers caustic a synonym of corrosive with no bias towards one side of the pH scale. It may be a convention to say “caustic” means “basic” but it doesn’t seem to be a rule.

Grounded? What the fuck are you talking about? The historical relevance is completely insignificant if you’re talking about modern culture. You can huff and puff about it all you want, but outside of a few devout Jews, no one is going to have heard of it, and the kid is an outcast. Simple as that.

I’ve never heard, and can find no reference to, “caustic” meaning “basic.”

He mentions it in pretty much everything he writes.

I know. I totally know. It’s a completely irrational thing on my part.

Logically, I completely agree with you, it should of course be squeezable. No idea why it squigs me out.

Unlike Drew, I love mayo, but something about squeezable mayo (adn squeezable jelly) grosses me right out.

Oh, Pine. Such a good terminal email client :)

Most articles on Deadspin, and most comment sections on the entire Internet, could just be titled “snarky jerk,” so I wouldn’t be too hard on yourself.

You will be long dead by then, so I wouldn’t worry about it that much.
