Serena Williams, for 3 years straight now, can’t stop yapping about her heroic, never before witnessed feat of combining motherhood and professional sports, after legions of mothers in all sports have done the same thing before her for decades. Kim Clijsters had a child, came back to the US Open unseeded, beat both…

Yeah, I mean you call the chair umpire at the US Open final a thief and a liar to his face and scream at him for minutes for simply doing his job enforcing the rules and people start criticizing you. Unbelievable, huh?

Clearly you don’t follow Federer’s career.

People in the sports media have been saying that about Federer for at least the last 6 years or so. He just doesn’t whine about it in public. That is the difference.

“When did the college admissions scandal break?”

I would add, educate family and friends on how to be in your car. As a younger millennial, most of my friends have never been in a car of the same vintage as my truck.

Yeah, I think having a nice stove is also a hack lol. 

Any Asian dish using rice noodles usually requires they are steeped in hot water for just a couple minutes; boiling water for this is annoying and takes longer than what they actually cook for. So if you’re doing pho or pad thai or cold noodle dishes this is the way to go.

I feel better. I’m losing weight. I’m cooking with more creativity and enthusiasm than I have in years. I feel more energetic. I’m eating healthy whole foods. I’m not craving desserts or extra snacks because the break from sugar and excess fat fills me up for hours. I no longer fear becoming diabetic. When I take…

Lighten up. People have all kinds of little rituals that make them feel better. Rally caps at baseball games, crossing their fingers for luck, and even praying to St. Anthony to find something. Doesn’t mean they aren’t grateful to the person who actually made the wished for thing happen.

Ah. My mistake. It’s too late for me to edit, so feel free to just dismiss it :D

It is, thanks. Chariotoflove deserves credit for bringing it back, so if you want to edit/redact so you’re not too closely affiliated with a mouthy, opinionated mofo like me, I fully understand. Edit window should be 15 minutes from when you first hit “publish.” 

I have never copy/pasted a comment before. I hope that it’s legible:

Thanks! My craven, thinly-veiled ruse worked ;-)

It may not be possible to dismiss a comment that’s been starred? I starred yours so that it can appear if that’s the case.

He’s a chickenshit who can’t take criticism that’s as ugly as his comment is. I’m surprised yours didn’t get dismissed like mine did: https://thetakeout.com/1840008034

I’ve tried scrubbing grills and my many cast-iron pans with multiple methods and never been so happy as when I bought a chainmail scrubber. It is the fastest, easiest, most effective, and least wasteful method.
