Don't ask me how I know, but... *cough*

Banning IP addresses was only one of their tactics. They would also block people by restricting processing of payment methods based on the billing address(es) of the customer they wanted to ban. So anyone who had a credit/debit card with that customer's billing address could…

Historically, yes. They would guarantee their clothing against defects and signs of wear for five years, the fit was amazing, the technical pieces (sweat-wicking items for runners, sports bras, etc.) were functional, and the styles and colors flattering.

And I know that last point shouldn't matter that much for…

Nah. Tennessee is pretty ambivalent about Kentucky, at least in the middle part of the state. And I'd say that more of our disdain is aimed at Alabama than Georgia.

But for me, personally, the state I have starts with a C, ends with a T, and has a U and and an N in the middle. Which is completely a propos, in my…

I was just coming to say the same thing.

The idea of having scheduled plans to which I must adhere — even for things I enjoy and for simple things like dinner with a friend — is the opposite of fun, for me. I end up spending the time leading up to the event planning for it (what time do I need to leave, what is the…

We unintentionally ran our UPS delivery guy ragged this year. So many things that seemed as though they typically would have been shipped USPS were being sent UPS, so we received an average of three or four deliveries per week — including two that weren't holiday-related and that we weren't expecting until after…

I'll give it another shot with a fresher orange, but when I tried it with a navel I just ended up with a bigger mess than my usual orange-eating method, which is to just slice into quarters and:

It made me wonder what would happen if Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout married John Jacob Jingleheimer Schmidt.

Someone named — and who apparently is perfectly happy to go by the entirety of — "Brandon Robert Joseph Peyton" has decided to take issue with his hypothetical kids having a hyphenated name?

Ugh, yes! I freely and fully admit that I have Issues™ with feet and pictures of feet, but come on, wasn't there another available stock pic of a scale that didn't involve such janky feet and gnarly toenails? Ewwwww.

Poop discussion? Fine, go for it. Poop chart? Sure, whatever. Gross picture of feet? *runs…

Much appreciation for the monitor deal heads up. I've been trying to find a second LED HP2711x to match one I bought from an Amazon lightning deal a year ago, but they've either been nowhere to be found or twice what I paid for mine. Famous Maker looks quite comparable. :)

Plural, not possessive. "Joneses" is correct.

Still, my father has always been pretty careful with his money. Aside from their mortgage, my parents have never been in significant debt, even during periods of unemployment. They put money directly from their pay into a credit union every pay period and treated it as an emergency fund, saved up for major expenses…

"I know someone who's been practicing over 10 years and still has $100k to pay off."

Your mileage may vary, of course, depending on the lender, but in my experience the "on-time payment" discount is distinct from any "auto-pay" discount.

Another possible consequence that I didn't see listed:

You may lose eligibility for interest rate reductions, which could cost you a lot more in the long run — especially if you have hefty student loans that will take you the full term to pay off — than a one-time late fee or a ding on your credit report. Many lenders…

Like, what is, like, with, like, all of the, like, "like" usage in that, like, one quote?

Definitely. I'm so "not into it" that I'm worried my fiance is going to interpret my laissez-faire attitude about the wedding as a laissez-faire attitude about him.

I could have written this exact same post myself, down to every detail, with the change of "Hawaii" to "St. Lucia."

*emphatic nodding and flailing* from the lawyer working as an editor for a legal publishing company.

How about "Don't pay $$$ to go to a concert and spend the entire time texting/looking at your phone."

In this picture alone there are two obvious examples.
