I don’t think the point was that you can’t use the word privately to describe kids. By all means, speak accurately to other adults when the kids can’t hear.

The point that I got was that it’s not good to label kids so that it turns into a self fulfilling prophecy. It’s common for a little kid to do something bossy, and…

One of the refrigerator makers has a pebble ice machine in the door now.  Next time I need a fridge, that will be a must-have feature.

Muppets Now is absolutely nothing like the Muppet Show.

What “legal contingencies” prevent either party from simply walking away?

Sure, but if you go to the store to get cream, regular cream, you’re grabbing a quart of heavy cream, no?

Refreshing to see a Lifehacker writer know what they’re talking about, unlike the recent article on guns.

Thank you!

The NRA has some great training programs, including the very respected Eddie Eagle program for kids.

I definitely think there are a handful of people that talk about switching to Starlink for this reason, but I think it’s a niche. The vast majority of people don’t want to pay more for less.

I don’t see where you say in your article that you’ve drawn conclusions that are bananas.

What kind of psychopath would leave the dirty kitchen for Mom to clean up on Mom’s day?  I can’t even comprehend this. 

What kind of mold is impervious to acid?

I blame corporations and their pervasive marketing.

What in the world are you using to clean your shower???

Came here to recommend a 50/50 dishsoap/vinegar solution for the kitchen wand.  Like you said, it makes cleaning a snap.  It’s also not overly harsh and will actually get your shower really clean, not just look clean for a little bit by making it shiny.

You don’t lie in bed on Tuesday just because you went for a walk on Monday.

The stories you link to LITERALLY say exactly what cyberpizza has repeatedly said:  that we just don’t know how immunity is going to play out.  Just read your own sources.  Really read them.

I like Seinfeld, but I didn’t recognize your quote.

Not that there’s anything wrong with that...
