Yes, but before long if you buy your weed there legally you will have to learn to pay sales taxes, if I am not mistaken. I think I read that it is tax free for just a short time.

I think a good restaurant tries to serve butter at a spreadable temperature, though sometimes that becomes impossible because of the number of diners. It’s a forgivable offense.

Free-range children =/= 4 or 5 year olds, in any case. The whole idea is that they are kids old enough to take care of themselves for a little bit, or a short walk. So fuck her and her “free range” BS.

My mother got married at 16. She didn’t have to, but I think she shouldn’t have. My father was 8 years older than her and had been in the Navy during WWII. She and her parents had survived the Holocaust in Poland and in Germany, and immigrated to the U.S. afterwards. She was a terribly intelligent woman, though behind…

Oh fucking hell, she sounds like she is 14, not 21. I’m gagging over here. And he’s married, too?

When I was 14-15 I had a huuuge crush on a music teacher. He made a point of telling me that we could be friends, but he was an adult and I was a teenager and those things don’t go together except as friends.

Perfect response to the idiot.

Yes, but a 14 year old girl is still a fucking 14 year old girl, i.e., A CHILD, goddamn it.

I’m almost over what you have. 2 weeks and I am still phleghmmy and coughing - a week ago my doctor gave me the codeine and an inhaler. It’s a nasty bug, feel better.

I come from a family that was constantly critical, biting, and combative. So when I got married, after the “afterglow” started to wear off I found myself responding to issues the way my family would — with sharp, nasty, sarcastic comments and confrontation. Don’t get me wrong - I had some legitimate complaints, but…

They better not clean it up for TV or I’ll scream.

I was 27 and freaking ENGAGED to my husband, and we went to my parents’ house for a holiday, and my mother pulls me aside and tells me we have to stay in separate rooms because my father would freak if he knew I was having sex. I was like, “what did he think we’ve been doing?” She answers, “If he doesn’t see it, he…

All but the most minor crimes are “held against people forever.” You have a record. In very rare instances, you may be able to get it expunged, but it is not easy (being rich, famous and white, like Markie Mark, helps). There usually needs to be evidence of actual innocence (but see the rich, famous, etc. clause).

He’s said this before. I’m guessing he has a pretty good idea. I hope he’s right.

I agree. And juries compromise on verdicts all. the. time. If that charge had not been there, they likely would have convicted him on another.

GOOD.

A $2 Miller lite? Can you get that anywhere that isn’t in the sticks of a one-horse town on its last legs?

I totally support adopting, but I don’t put a lot of faith in assessments, at least those done by shelters. Animals in shelters are rarely displaying their best side. They may seem fearful or shy when, in a home environment, they would be friendly and affectionate. If the dog is in a foster home, it is usually far…

It’s awful, but it IS an illness. Unfortunately the only treatment is to keep the mother away from anyone vulnerable, but I have to think it means something that it isn’t motivated by malice. Doesn’t it? I don’t know. The victims are still innocent and still hurt. My head hurts.

I just moved and I miss Shake Shack a lot. But good for Meyer. Is he talking about the NY minimum wage? Because Shake Shack is also in DC, and I don’t recall the minimum wage going up to $15 there.
