The first time I ever played, at a table of 7 players, I collected green cards without understanding what I was really doing. And the guy next to me got the green guild card, so I gave him a free 20 points -- and he won by two. Lesson learned!

I recently got a boarding pass from Zurich to Vienna, probably from the same person whose Italian gas receipts I get a couple times a week, and who is currently missing her electronic concert tickets (Colour Clash Newport — she must be flying over to the UK!). I’ve gotten lease contracts, hair appointments, job…

Kurt Vonnegut: Some fratty douchebro said “I just have to ask...boxers or briefs?” And Kurt walked off the stage, night over.

That halloumi looks fab. And shout-out for the radish as taco garnish.

I’m a fan of the Alexia brand frozen sweet potato “puffs” — fantastic little orange tots, bake up nicely, just need salt & pepper.

Well gods, who can blame them, the world is garbage. 

Would eat a steak & mashed potato taco (hard pass on the “country-fried” part, though)

I would march in the streets in favor of tacos for all. May I recommend these Mexican street corn chicken tacos, which I made on Saturday and were fantastic? I am ready to make them again.

Please tell me Arya Stark shows up and solves this problem. She is a problem-solver.

I recommend the Colson Whitehead book "Apex Hides the Hurt."

I’m hoping Dany sends her old boo Daario Naharis a text, has him show up with the Second Sons to sneak up on the Golden Company.

I think it was V, as a callback to when E held up a toilet brush in self-defense when V came to E's house.

This and Crapplebee’s. Gods bless my dearly departed grandmother, St. Dorothy.

I didn’t come up with the spark of this idea, a guy at work did by saying “Night Queen” after we’d talked about the Cersei/Euron bangout, and I extrapolated it to this:

Some friends and I got a “clear silicone spoonula” for Tori Spelling, off the Williams-Sonoma registry for her first marriage. We had the card read “DONNA MARTIN GRADUATES.” We were not drunk, but we felt drunk? On life? IDK, it was $13 plus shipping and gift wrap, we pooled our money. She sent a hand-written…

You know, if you swap a healthy squirt of Palmolive in for the cilantro, you get the same flavor without having to do all that tedious chopping!

Yeah, I remember a coach harping on us at halftime about not taking any charges, and I replied “I just took one”—and he jumped up, got right into my face, and said “YOU’RE A PISS-POOR EXCUSE FOR A BASKETBALL PLAYER.” Well, that shocked me into silence, as it was intended to—the rest of my team, too.

My preferred euphemism is actually “Shark Week,” but I didn’t want someone to take me literally re: the Discovery Channel series!

IKEA has some nice but VERY thin ones. And I have some sturdy Samsonite ones that I got at a closeout store, one of those that’s just filled with random pallets of stuff, about 15 years ago. I like to use them for my laptop bag, both on trips (I prefer to check a suitcase and travel light through the airport) and…
