Pretty much. I wouldn’t invite someone who RSVP’d yes and then just no showed to anything again but if I saw them out at a bar I’d say hello. Life is too short to hold grudges, especially ones that don’t really matter.

When you get an invitation to something does it typically have the number of people who were invited listed on it? I doubt their friends knew that 400 people were invited.

It’s a dick move to RSVP yes and then just blow it off, it cost money when you do that. Just ignoring the invitation is a “no” RSVP to me so that wouldn’t be that big of a deal. I still think that you are on point with what you wrote though.

I don’t have any tattoos but when I am 80 I really doubt I will care what I look like too much, if anything it is my current age when I will care the most

Interesting theory, I never heard that one in all of the discussions about how the Olympics are corrupt and everyone suggested that

I dread the day I have to console my daughter over internet bullying or social media drama. It is just so easy to be mean to others when you don’t have to see their physical reaction, I am glad the worst I had it was people being jerks on Instant Messenger

Nick, this is one of the best articles I have ever seen on this site and on the internet for that matter. I was really struggling at one point with anxiety and depression, a quarter life crisis if you will, and one thing I finally realized was that Facebook was one of the things that was harmful to me. I was…

And this is why no one will ever listen to you except those in your echo chamber. Try taking a nuanced approach to life instead of painting everything with broad brush strokes.

Maybe you should just try to take a nuanced approach to life instead of painting everything with broad brush strokes

Kevin Durant - Hold my beer

I was on a boat once in Alaska and we saw a family of orcas swimming by. Everyone rushed to get a picture, a terrible picture really, and they totally missed just enjoying it. I can go back and look at other pictures from that trip if I want to remember the trip but I can also picture those orcas in my head if I want…

Just don’t answer the phone if it is someone you don’t know. If it is something important they will leave a message or send you official mail and either way you can look up if it is a scam before returning their call.

I have seen more people on the left whining about it, Piers Morgan wrote a scathing article about it

User name is not relevant

It’s not too much effort it is just this is more convenient. As someone who leaves their phone on their desk at work I would love to have this so I never have to really worry about my phone not being charged at work. I currently use a cord but the angle the cord is at makes it easy to break as it has to bend around my…

Breaking news, companies don’t like for employees to take controversial opinions on social media. This isn’t limited to public figures like Hill, plenty of people have lost their jobs from their social media posting.

I just spit my chica cherry cola all over my keyboard

Fun coyote fact. If you kill a coyote it will likely increase the coyote population. When they howl at night it is basically a role call and if one is missing the alpha female kicks into her breeding cycle and will have a litter of pups. They are really cool animals even though they can be quite the pest.

Yes, you should teach your kids those things but you should also take pretty simple precautions to limit the chances of your kid getting seriously injured. Let’s not forget that a toddler is still a toddler. This is just like insurance, you hope you never need it but if you do it’s there.

That makes sense, I think the biggest takeaway for me is that if you are “keeping score”, either intently or otherwise, then you should work together to try and fix the underlying issue. It will definitely manifest itself in other ways in the relationship and is likely a sign of things being wrong in other areas.
