Do you have an age range in mind? For the sake of keeping things legal, I’m already eliminating relatives under 18.

I’ve seen that at other (recently built) schools as well. My friend learned the hard way when subbing a 1st grade class that their in-room bathroom did not have a door to a supply closet, but a door to the Kindergarten next door. Any guesses how she learned this?

The khakis issue is a much larger one that I have become far more aware of in becoming a parent (and bothers me to no end). I thought I could solve it by turning to the ol’ unisex standby, Osh Kosh Bgosh only to find that they too have gone hyper gendered. I’m lucky I’m having a boy, because their clothes are made of…

So he was not one of those unfortunate souls (including many of my relatives) who make people wonder why a guy is wearing a sweater with swim trunks at the beach?

And late 80s/ early 90s. I remember rocking stirrup pants a lot as a kid. It was the only way my mom was getting me into a dress without the promise of cake or some fancy dessert. Although I did not wear them in place of pants and I don’t recall my peers doing so either.

Too bad Aer Lingus economy class is shit. They offer very competitive rates between NYC (where I live) and Amsterdam (where my family lives) with a stopover in Dublin.The puddle jump from Dublin to AMS was perfectly acceptable, the flights between NYC and Dublin (either direction) were awful.

I’m taking a transatlantic flight while 6.5 months pregnant soon. Not only will I be wearing sneakers, but I will be wearing shoes that I can slip on and off without bending over. Heck, I can get them onto the conveyor belt without bending over. They will be paired with ever-so-fetching compression stocking and…

I am so glad that our former CEO couldn’t figure out Twitter or social media generally. She was a control freak that had to review anything and everything (which meant that nothing actually got done). She would be the type to argue every point and comment posted.

It isn’t just United. Whomever the family member is that works for United and get the passes, should know the deal and communicate it to the kids. I get that 10 year olds/teenagers (accounts vary) dress themselves and are reticent to be told what to dress, but will generally comply if it means not going where they…

The teacher didn’t want kids running to the bathroom during class, so it was better for them to be thirsty.

You seem to be repeatedly (and perhaps intentionally) missing the point that the teacher would use that rhyme to limit the kids’ use of the fountain. Not that the words were horrible, it was the actions that accompanied them.

If it wasn’t recorded, they would just call her a liar and/or crazy.

I know Oriental isn’t the right word now, either.

Maybe. It doesn’t help that he calls it “that curly and sign”.

Victim? Oh right, someone held accountable for their entirely voluntary actions.

But he can spell A and M...

The penalties for solicitation of a prostitute are generally pretty minimal (varies by state and by judge) and a far lower priority than human trafficking. A john helping a trafficked person is more likely to get immunity or an ACD (adjourning the case for 6-12 months and then dismissing it if they haven’t gotten…

It moved to Thrillist as Off the Menu. Smaller audience but still some good stories.

I haven’t but I wonder if it is just people thinking they have something clever to say in disliking something/someone who is widely adored.

Look at Charles. Can you ever picture him on a romance novel? Me neither.
