I can honestly say the majority of my experiences letting guys pay have not been pleasant. You didn’t buy a chance to grope my tits for a $14.99 entree, dude.

Roughly half of the men surveyed said men should pay on dates, but only 36% of women agreed

Yes, only for cats. I think pill bottles for dogs is just a recipe for disaster.

He even caught a mouse the other day! He might have left it next to my head while sleeping and traumatized me for life, but it is just because he loves me.

A related useful tip... flannel sheets.

during the sandy storm, my tortoise was sleeping on one. We did not have electricity but we had gas so unlimited boiled water :)

Women a usually polite when rejecting someone to avoid anger/violence.

Going to continue my rule of just not answering phone calls if I’m not expecting them.

That’s what we use! I have been too scared to try the Kirkland brand.

one key point. do NOT recycle something else you specifically know it’s accepted.

Sorry. 44 a week. This is in New Mexico for a single person, the maximum you can get. Also around the same in NYC and Mass. They are eliminating this in favor of working for your food stamps if you can’t find a job. Which is doable, sure. But I don’t see anyone living the high life with less than $200 for food a…

While it is slightly more work, all that cheddar bay biscuits are is a biscuit mix with cheese and parsley brushed with garlic butter (some say seasoning salt is added) and topped with a little dried parsley.

Better hope she isn’t reading this, or you’re likely going to be surfing the couch for a while!

This is key for pork. The difference between ground pork that has been browned or not is unbelievable. Ground pork is my preferred meat now that I’ve learned to cook it properly, thanks to one of my Mexican neighbours who showed me how she makes her enchiladas. I usually mix pork with a little beef for maximum flavour.

Well, technically, I use AJ as a security blanket for when I DO attend gatherings. I have a lot of anxiety around social events but you can’t *not* show up, especially if it’s - most recent example - one of my employer’s holiday parties. It’s an important time to network and make a good impression on people in…

If you’re going to go through the effort of doing this, why not fill the ice cube/popsicle/muffin tray with the punch and freeze it. Then, even if it does melt, you will never dilute the mixture. Unless you’re trying to freezing something with an absurd amount of booze, salt, or sugar of course.
