Not really on topic, but someone on I Thee Dread had a day-long meltdown on Friday after another commenter jokingly used "totes" to mean "totally." Crazy person kept loudly insisting that "totes" ONLY means "tote bags," that no one except particularly stupid Jez commenters trying to look cool have ever used the term…
I hoard tote bags, for when I need to make my escape.
I hoarded empty yogurt containers until someone finally got tired of it and threw them all out. There were almost a 100+ in there.
The death of a person in your life has a weird way of making everything they used or touched or (especially) gave to you special. And you're left sitting there, with a dumb saved email or (in my case) a very emotional expired can of soup, trying to walk the line between insanely sentimental and appropriately…
Amen my friend! I Spent 10 years at a similar community center. I wanted to yell - "Listen, we are NOT your POVERTY PETTING ZOO!!" And then out loud I would say..... We try to be about dignity and not photo opportunity. I also hated parents/grandparents that wanted their kids to volunteer so they could "see how…
I finally deleted someone on my FB because he was constantly going on about how NICE he was...every time he gave someone directions, or gave someone a ride, or whatever, there it was.

I assumed that we were matching the hangers to the clothes. As one might expect for a grown up person with grown up clothes.

Everyone comes and talks about what a good role model…
"Why cruel? The person to me is as dignified as anyone else!"
What's green and has wheels?
I left the house exactly once this week. Here's hoping next week is an improvement.
Nobody thinks totes is cool or trendy. It is just slang. The comment was obviously in an exaggerated character voice as a joke.
You are way too angry about something so ridiculous. "Pathetic wannabe cools" makes you sound like you're a 15 year old boy who thinks he's the next Holden Caulfield.
Wow, humorless, pedantic, furious at anyone who dares to use words you personally have deemed unacceptable, AND so ridiculously out of touch that you are completely unaware of common slang. Bless your heart!
Really? I think it has been around for a few years, its pretty mainstream now. It has been around a lot longer than "fleek" for example, which you could maybe call trendy. It wouldn't be appropriate for formal writing, but conversationally like this, I think it serves a purpose- mainly to affect a tone of playfulness-…
No way, Jose! I have extremely dry skin. I only wash pits, privates, and feet. No need for scrubbing, sounds excessive.
You guys see any Axe body spray on this list? No? Well then, STOP FUCKING BATHING YOURSELF IN IT BEFORE YOU LEAVE THE HOUSE!
Two tips from my experience:
