It started with David Cook in season 5, IMO. Then it was the same guy every season.

Yes, that’s exactly right. Because you don’t even want to create the perception of discrimination.

Broiling works great. That’s how I usually do it. Toss them in just the tiniest bit of oil before you cook them.

I graduated in the middle of the economic crash in ‘08, and I am in HR, one of the hardest hit by lay-offs. At this point, I had been interviewing for a year and a half. Thankfully, I was working at a family business in my field, so I wasn’t in as bad a situation as the rest of my graduating class.

Thank you for including that last one! That made my day!

Oh geez, I just realized the second one is Kelly Jones. That’s awesome.

Giz is such a great artist, and the top cover proves that. lol

Those upper bands are HIGH. I'm in HR and that scares me.

Thanks for making clear that you find this pretty disgusting. IMO, rape should never be entertainment. Hell, I hate how sexual violence in general is depicted in general. Men are almost never threatened with rape in movies, TV shows, or comic books. Why are women threatened with it constantly?
