I agree that it’s fantastical bullshit. I generally don’t care enough to say to someone that they are using it wrong. But when someone bitches about someone else using the term wrong, and gets it wrong themselves, then I’ll jump in and correct them.

But all people who voted for Trump are racists. He made it clear during the campaign that he is racist and intended to pursue racist policies. He said things that Paul Ryan called out (correctly) as a textbook example of racism.

He is a racist misogynist who clearly stated that he would pursue racist policies. If you decide that ‘well, the racist is the lesser of two evils’ and it isn’t because the other person is something like a rapist, then you are, indeed, racist.

I agree - she should have told him she wanted a divorce as soon as he started espousing support for Trump. He’s been an obvious racist misogynist since he first hit the news, so anyone supporting him is signaling that they are cool with that.

So, are you saying that you could have been friends with Strom Thurmond? You could have gone out for a beer with George Wallace after he concluded the “Segregation today” speech, and just politely ignored all of that?

I have friends who support different Democrats than I do. I have friends who supported Romney, or McCain (but not the choice of Palin). I do not have friends that support Trump. I have former friends who do.

I’ve had the pleasure of seeing something like that a few times, but I also know the spot where the cops hang out to catch people. All the locals know the spot, so when someone is doing that they aren’t from the area and they probably have about a 1 in 10 shot of being nabbed there.

If that bothers you, then you probably want to look into your own understanding of karma, because your example is absolutely not karma. Karma is a fairly complex topic, but boiled down it is the balance of all of your actions across all of your lives, and impacts how you will be reborn. It is most assuredly not about…

You never expected to lose billions, you dipshit, because you never had billions to lose.

Based on his deal with Nike, I’d bet that any team that signed him would end up seeing a net benefit in terms of money brought in. Sure, some people would hate it, and a tiny number might stop watching because of it. But most are going to watch anyway - if the thing that gets you to stop watching football is that your…

You definitely over-tipped. I would have ended up going to the manager - maybe immediately after she left, but certainly about 15 minutes later. I probably would have left the place and never come back, but if the manager reseated me and and I got a different server, it may have been salvageable. But that particular…

Have you considered what it does to someone who is just trying to grab lunch during their lunch break and get back to a day of working to have the entire lunch break taken up by waiting for an hour for their food to come out? How someone might have been having a bad day at work themselves, and would just like to have…

If the food was unacceptable, I wouldn’t pay for it, either. I’ve had that happen. We went to a wing joint next to a movie theater, intending to have wings and beer before the movie. We got there an hour and a half before the movie, with the intention of eating then relaxing over some beer. Half an hour after…

Take it up with the people in your kitchen and your manager. You are the front line, the interface with the customer. If the kitchen screws up and doesn’t get the food out in time, then you should be yelling at them for costing you tips.

It’s not worth it to me to try and separate that out. Did my order take 45 minutes because of a kitchen problem, or because the server screwed up? Don’t know, don’t really care.Is the food cold because of a kitchen problem, or because the server took a long time to pick it up? Same answer again.

And those are related... how? Do you think that they have given up on DUI enforcement over this?

Maybe it’s just me, but if I were the people at Steak Ums, I don’t think I’d be calling my product a frozen beef sheet.

Anyone who eats those fries without being paid to do so is a masochist.

That’s not magic. It’s still just a burger. Not even better than most, but pretty much what you would expect from fast food.

Yeah, this one seemed odd to me. If you want a money saving hack related to laundry, it is clearly to avoid the dryer and dry on a line.
