This isn’t a “technical” truth, it’s the “legal” truth. It doesn’t violate the spirit of the law because the law very specifically allows people to say “natural flavor” when the flavor is naturally obtained. This is specifically allowed in the law.

I hear it’s also supposed to be much more sustainable than beef. Far less inputs to create each pound of kangaroo meat compared to a pound of beef. Mainly because the roos evolved to live on an arid continent with only marginal grasses. They’re much more efficient at wringing out every ounce of nutrition from what…

You can get pre-packaged and shrink-wrapped bison meat at several grocery stores around me in upstate NY. Not sure if any butchers work directly with it. So it’s not that exotic.

Except they didn’t say “my partners’ mothers always hate me.” They said “I always seem to hate my partners’ mothers.”

I don’t recall ever picking up any hint that his mother was sick, but she definitely did not have money. Also I’m pretty sure there’s been no mention at all of Greg’s father. Not sure if his father’s dead or his parents are divorced. But it must have been his mother who was Ewan’s child, or else Greg’s last name would…

He’s not trusting that Logan will include him in his will, or that Logan will pay him enough to make up for the lost inheritance. He was trusting that Logan knew his brother better than Greg knew his grandfather, when Logan said Ewan would never pull the trigger on his threat.

“Would Hispanic even correctly describe someone from a country that has no ties to Spain?”

I am somewhat surprised by this. I would not have thought that there would be enough food considered “American” to merit its own section in a grocery store outside North America. I mean almost all of our food was brought here by immigrants. There isn’t much that’s purely American.

The same thing happens in New York if you’re caught driving a riding lawnmower on the shoulder of a road. And if your state is like New York, you could also get additional suspensions/revocations for uninsured operation and driving an unregistered vehicle.

Wow. I’ve never seen that before, but I don’t work in academia. I’m all for using a person’s preferred pronouns, but the same rules should apply to everyone.

Even in WI inheritances are not considered marital property unless they are co-mingled (put into a joint account). If you had put it into an account with just your name, then it wouldn’t have been marital property.

The estate tax exclusion in NY is currently $5,740,000. 

Well someone has a bee in their bonnet!

It wouldn’t have to be anything related to that case of insider trading. It could have literally been anything. This “Varsity Blues” operation that snagged all those parents paying to get their kids into the colleges of their choice only came to light because of a guy in Boston who was being convicted of insider…

Maybe he mainly goes to offices staffed with older people. I could understand not seeing many ear buds if the people were all 50+. A lot of them probably came up in offices where such things weren’t allowed.

No dictionary claims to “legitimize” words and phrases. That is not the goal of any dictionary. The whole purpose of a dictionary is to document words that are in common usage. That’s why they change every year. At least outside of places like France, where the government officially tries to protect French from the…

It’s not as straightforward as that. They knew it wasn’t a coincidence. I mean he routinely brought drug addicts to his apartment. But that’s not illegal by itself. It’s not illegal to have a thing for young black guys or to pick up homeless drug users. It only crosses the line if there is a quid pro quo of sex for…

Yes, I always make enough to freeze. With one pie worth of puree in each container. Pumpkin bread is also much better with real pumpkin!

Yeah, there are different pumpkin strains just like there are different kinds of apples which are each good for specific things.

Same. I could never understand why some people react that way to the word. It makes no sense to me.
