How you feel at 135 isn’t going to tell you whether you’re ready for 200.

Heavy cotton items that take longer to dry like towels”

Controversial hot take: macaroni & cheese. Americans have 364 other days of the year to stuff their faces with mac & cheese, can’t we just leave it alone for one day and let some other foods get their time to shine?!

One of the greatest things you can do for your dietary habits is to practice some form of mindful eating. And I don’t mean this in a crunchy-granola-hippie-zen kind of way like thinking about the pain and sacrifice the chicken made before you consume it.

Being pretentious on top of someone else’s pretentiousness is not a good look. There’s a difference between leaving accents off foreign words typed on an English keyboard and not even knowing the actual word you are saying. But you keep doing you...

Is the plane in the “wrong orientation” because it’s trying to re-create that photo shown in the tweet above? Did the plane only ever fly west to east? If I stand to the north of the plane it would look like it’s heading to the left. Somebody please explain how it can be “wrong”. It’s all based on observation point.

I second the generic cereals. What I’ve actually found is that the more sugary the cereal, the taste isn’t that hard to re-create and the generic brands do OK (the Malt-o-Meal version of “Oreo O’s” is actually spot on). But any generic Cheerio or Raisin Bran or Wheaties or whatever is awful. They don’t have two

I sold my car to them at beginning of summer and it was less than an hour inside the actual building before getting my check. I did fill out my vehicle info online before bringing it in though.

Most (all?) Kirkland products are name brand items sold under the Costco branding. There was an article a while back about how the contract stipulates that the Kirkland product can be no more than 1% different than the leading competitor. So basically Kirkland batteries are probably just Duracells with a different

I have to push back on the “elbows on the table”. What exactly is so offensive about this? It’s comfortable, it helps me lean forward and engage in conversation. It feels like a 19th century Emily Post recommendation because everyone’s elbow sleeves were caked in manure from working in the fields all day, and we’ve

I mean I get what you’re saying and I’m indoors wearing a mask as I type this...but where’s the end point? Do we just wear masks forever now because somewhere it will prevent someone from getting sick and dying? Do we throw millions of tons of cotton and paper masks in landfills every year until the end of time?

No these are young white American girls with no culture, they are clearly just misspelling “voila”

No it is clearly being used in the context of “voila!” and they are just misspelling it.

Are cars the kind of object that people just have extra of lying around? It just seems like it applies to such a vanishingly small amount of people, why even write the article then?

Can we also discuss Gen Z’ers writing the word “Wallah” in their TikToks and IG captions? Do they not know they are actually saying “voila”?

I called it LaQuah for so long before actually hearing someone else say “Lecroy” in person (and have others confirm that’s how they say it), that now I’m stuck with the French pronunciation and I can’t make my brain switch. So now I drink Perrier...problem solved!

Solid reference. I can’t wait for someone to not get it and try arguing with you.

My over-arching working hypothesis on “what’s wrong with the world today” is that we’ve just forgotten how to leave most people the hell alone.

I’m on year 12 of some mid-range stainless steel pans that see near-daily use and they are still great. I think the best advice would be to avoid the bargain-priced Walmart/Target variety packs so you’re not filling up landfills with a whole set of pots and pans every 2-3 years.
