If they actually worked in that little cafe, I could see the beginning of an argument for not tipping, but just tip.

Don’t cut yourself on that edge, buddy.

Mashed potatoes, gravy, Yorkshire pudding, and stuffing. I take the Gardein Chick’n Strips, give them the full Kara-age treatment (especially the marinate).

If something sells out in mere minutes, that looks an awful lot like false scarcity. This isn’t their first year selling them so it isn’t like their popularity is a unknown. If they are really concerned, they could do pre-order.

Making your own is definitely a way better solution for Advent calendars, regardless of the contents. I’ve made my own each year for most of a decade. When I’ve been in a relationship, I make sure there are four random chocolates (I usually do a mix of Lindor, Ferrero Rocher, Riesen, and anything else I find at the…

I will say that it was perfectly suited when they put it in the Grumpy Cat Christmas movie.

I can take or leave this Christmas song by Paul McCartney. There are so many god awful covers of the standard 20 or so Christmas songs, this Wonderful Christmas Time is at least not a beaten to death cover and moderately catchy.

I listen to the Charlie Brown’s Christmas soundtrack year round. It is a truly fantastic album and quite possibly the most listenable Christmas album ever made.

TLDR The difference on a tip calculated on a pre or post tax total is generally a few quarters for an average restaurant meal.

I do like 15%, on average.

An ex, who became my best friend, had her bridal shower/batchelorette party with her future wife in their back yard. They cooked nearly everything over a camp fire that we sat around well into the night.

If airlines actually bothered to enforce their carry on rules for bag sizes and quantities, this would be less of a problem. We’ve all seen those people who have a whole extra bag beyond the allowed amount for carry on, all too big for a that purpose.

I was once coming how on skytrain (I live in Vancouver) and I barely made it to the very last train heading home. As I was literally running to the train, I saw that one car was entirely empty. My drunk brain cried “Sweet!! All mine!!” and I leaped in.

I would also like people who try to start talking to me while I am listening to my much or reading to get stuffed. Some people will say ‘don’t be so anti-social’ or talk about ‘the good old days when people interacted’, but I would like to be left in peace.

I am okay with a certain amount of food and drink on transit, but not smelly stuff (like their lobster) or messy. 

The food is the thing that most gets me. They are having lobster which can be particularly smelly. If they were just having cake, that’d be one thing, but this is on par with the jack ass at work who brings fish to work and microwaves it in the lunch room, just filling the room with that stink.

Some ferns are very forgiving. I have planters on my balcony and some of those ferns have been there through several winters. Everything else dies but the ferns keep on going.

Is Trump actually calling the fact that the Republicans lost their majority ‘fake news’?

FoxConn isn’t going to be bringing quality jobs there. It is basically just going to be more shitty, low paying jobs like Amazon.

I worked at a Costco for a summer in college. I worked between two cashiers, loading and unloading. Everything that came through had to be taken off the carts and loaded onto another. You would not believe the number of times I found stuff hidden under 3 flats of pop or other heavy objects. The really annoying part is…
