Regarding “its” versus “it’s,” https://korystamper.wordpress.com/2016/03/05/its-complicated-national-grammar-day-and-apostrophe-abuse/ -- enjoy! 

The participants in that thread are often wrong and in many other cases inconsistent. “Unique,” for example, has meant both “one of a kind” and “unusual” since it landed in the English language, and most dictionaries have usage and history notes pointing that out. In the discussion of “imposter,” they actually don’t…

61, just checked in for my flight tomorrow a few hours ago using the app. Also upgraded to first because I would have been so far back that I would have been folded up like a tinfoil swan at a restaurant impressing old people.

Sorry, but I don’t think those are differences between now and then, and I agree with HarryMelMacian. I’m 5'10" and 220 pounds and fit just fine into the front seats with extra legroom, which aren’t that much more expensive than the regular seats, which are actually priced about the same as they were in the ’80s…

In fact, the next time I get on a plane will be to see him at Antone’s next month. And the last time I saw him, in May at Gruene Hall, was the first time in decades he didn’t play that song, which was great given the deep cuts he chose instead.

My BedJet 2 is one of the two or three best Kickstarter projects I got involved with. I honestly didn’t see any need to upgrade to the 3 because the 2's been so reliable for so long. It’s still well worth the price they’re charging IMO.

No.

No.

Also, everyone can stop the “would have” crap. There’s no “I wish I would have done that.” It’s “I wish I had done that.” My impression is that this is much, much more common than the grammar problem the article is about.

And thanks for the clarification. I wish “It’s charity for Jeff Bezos” was better than what I’d thought.

This is why showers have handheld spray features. Once a day, you can finish anything the TP inexplicably missed over the last 24 hours.

It’s funny how many protests by actual residents against these developments have taken place while the outgoing administration rams them through, slathering on TIF funds to fill in any gaps the Opportunity Zone program may fall short on. Even that headline you pasted in proves the point of this article.

There’s a really, really, really good book, David Priess’ How to Get Rid of a President. It covers lots of ways that aren’t impeachment and has tons of history in it. One of the reasons it’s useful is that all that history makes it clear our current president isn’t anywhere near the worst in our nation’s history, as…

What might one do to take 24 ounces of cream cheese and get it into a state where it can be poured? Are we talking KitchenAid, microwaving, throwing it really hard at the wall and scraping it into the bowl, flagging down a passing Kryptonian and requesting a few seconds of their heat vision and super-strength (and hopi…

I swear, Elon Musk is the next Donald Trump. A steady flow of narcissism, stupid ideas, and cluelessness with sparkly floaters of “I’m so rich that rules don’t apply to me.” If I thought I’d still be alive when it happens, I’d put down good money that his presidential bid will succeed when he wins the electoral…

Whoa! For a second I thought you were going to post something original, but you hid the Reddit crap below the fold. Someday! (I bet not)

Not a hack per se, but when I moved to Chicago from Boston in ’97, I was stunned to discover that people here think dibs is unique to the city. Chicagoans don’t get out much, I guess.

If you happen to be a non-Catholic carnivore (or, to be fair, omnivore, but what’s up with that anyway?), go to your local purveyors of tasteful flesh on Fridays during Lent. They will be so glad to see you. They will often pile high your sandwiches with the product they need to use or lose. My very Catholic city of…

I’ve used the American systems. They’re cheap ancient Android tablets, probably EOLed for everything but this. People can tear a strip off their tinfoil hats and wrap it around the edge to cover the camera if they’re really so worried.

Forgive the unsolicited plug, but I have the same problem, and backed this on Kickstarter and it changed life:
