The colorful fluff stuff from Hook! I know logically it’s unlikely to taste good, but it’s too colorful to not at least try!

Not everyone can take their phone in to work so treating this question as the joke that is turning your phone off at night means you’re missing the forest for the trees. I’m not leaving my phone on for 8-10 hours a day in my car/a locker to just run the battery down.

This may seem silly until you have a kid incessantly tickling you without your permission (and likely at a very inopportune time for you), then you recognize what you’ve taught them. 

Old Gregg!

I do this for me using sitcoms (mostly Parks and Rec or The Office) while getting ready to go places. I know each episode is 22 min with a few 40 min exceptions, and I know the episodes well enough to know that if I’m not doing __X__ by the time Leslie Knope says something blindly optimistic, that I’m running behind.

I have a Note 8 and, despite not being the kind of person who destroys phones, have found myself having to repeatedly buy zagg screen protectors, one after another (they do ‘free’ replacements, thank god) because it keeps getting dropped in various ways! As much as I’m intrigued with the Note 9, I’m worried that extra…

I was a young female in the Army who sat near the fridge. Prime candidate. I posted a sign saying it was getting cleaned by Friday and to remove anything you wanted to keep from 1-2pm that day. No one did. I threw everything away (lunch boxes, ice packs, gallons of milk). Leadership caught wind of how angry everyone…

THANK YOU. My bachelor’s was in psych and it always bothered me how quick psych professionals are to agree to pathologize being human (or teach students to pathologize at the very least). Negative feelings are just a part of the package and learning to cope is extremely important part of mental health. Whether that be…

I recently took my first cruise with Royal Caribbean and I don’t know what it says about me but one of my favorite parts was how much they pushed handwashing. From a cutesy musical animation that encourages reminding others to the lady standing outside the dining room screaming ‘washy washy’ and forcing everyone…

I just would avoid all major roads for that trip. Dulles is good if there are no accidents but that route would actually allow you to create your own way utilizing roads that aren’t considered major thru-ways so that is likely what I’d do (speaking as someone forced to use the 95 beltway every day)

Before my autoimmune disease became apparent, I lied every year that I was sick so they’d give me the shot and not the nasal mist because, without fail, the mist would weaken my immune system enough to get sick (not always flu, just whatever was around at that time).

I used to REALLY struggle with this and found that if I go to the gym with a protein shake and/or apple for after and take my vitamins (iron and zinc) I do wayyyy better. I went to the dr and found out I was anemic, so not only was I lacking those things they were also affecting my blood sugar so I’d crash hardcore…

The key is to do your homework and not be afraid to walk out (or at least pretend like you’re willing to leave it). When I bought my car, I knew what I wanted but had also chosen similar alternatives, specifically in a different, competing brand. When they tried to give me the runaround, I had printouts of pricing and…

Addictive personalities can also get addicted to dieting, particularly extreme diets.

So, if, say, one never watched the first episodes because even the commercials for the show turned them off from it, could one start watching the new episodes now and not be lost?

Never Beverly. Or every time because it simply can’t be as bad as you remember....

Copper smell with bleach?

My husband and I visited a local eatery/brewery for lunch where NO music was playing. Dead uncomfortable silence with quiet clinks of forks on dishes, glasses on tables and of course the kitchen. I asked for music to be turned on and voila, an entirely new, comfortable experience.

Same here. It takes a strong friendship base to try to overlap social circles because if it’s weak at all there could be self-consciousness on any/all sides. I’m actually perfectly happy having friends that will only sometimes all hang out together but mostly only hang out on an individual basis. Between working full…

The way my work station is set up, I am facing forward where people enter our work area and am basically forced to see them. Anytime one of my coworkers is away from their desk, they look to me for answers. Believe it or not, I don’t keep their calendar, nor do I demand they tell me where they’re going for every potty…
