We just hosted our first Thanksgiving last year and had all of this stuff on hand. The thing we didn’t? Gravy boat. Highly recommend a gravy boat.

I’m an old millennial and from FL too! 2000 recount county, no less. Watching that debacle as a young teenager helped cement in my head the idea that it really can come down to a handful of votes, and that my vote is important.

Hahaha, our kittens love to try to steal treats from each other! We resorted to the human treat-giver putting one or two small treats in each hand with arms outstretched, showing kitties the hands together, then quickly moving our hands apart so that the kitties are about three feet apart when they get their treats.…

Oh, poor baby. He sounds miserable. I’d revisit with your vet and/or get a second opinion.

I’m a woman and would be so pissed if my husband said to me, “That’s all you get for now.” We have sex pretty infrequently so I think that would be cruel coming from either of us.

Wait. Wait wait. I work in senior services. If those seniors aren’t wards of someone else, they have every right to freely get on that bus, just like any other adult. How can they be “ordered off” the bus? Senior centers aren’t like long-term care facilities. They’re voluntary places to go congregate with others.

Agree. My grandfather had GBS and eventually died from heart/lung paralysis. But he got GBS from pneumonia complications, which he likely got from his flu. (I don’t know whether or not he was vaccinated, as that was over ten years ago and it wasn’t a thing we thought to ask.) So I know how scary GBS is. I’d talk to a…

I feel sorry for this guy’s kids—sure, he can get the flu for all I care, but a) his kids (minors, I assume) wouldn’t be old enough to decide for themselves whether or not to get the shot, and b) he clearly does no critical thinking/analysis, so there’s no way he’s teaching that to his kids. What a fucking maroon.

Well, forgive me! So, a conservative non-health group hates the CDC—shocking! A health journalist caught an email slip-up which was promptly corrected—scandal! That must invalidate all of everything else that a ton of independent researchers agree on! Besides, you didn’t actually address my point about bacteria—and…

I desperately want to share it within an organization as well and would also love a non-sweary version!

The flu isn’t caused by bacteria, dipshit, it’s caused by a virus. The real issue is doctors prescribing antibiotics for flu symptoms. Talk to your doctor about overprescription of antibiotics and get a flu shot while you’re there. https://cddep.org/blog/posts/want_help_fight_antibiotic_resistance_winter_get_flu_shot/

Did you even read to the bottom of that section?

Oh god, it’s the worst. I’m bi, so right before I met my husband, I was considering limiting my online dating to women only because ugh there are so many wannabe alpha men in this town only looking for a status symbol partner. (Same goes for women looking for status symbols, for the record, so limiting my search might…

I think it depends on where you live too. In the DC area, a lot of people in their 30s aren’t married because they’ve been working pretty hard and/or fooling around in their 20s, so they hit 30 and then start looking. My husband and I were 26 when we met, so maybe that proves your story true, but honestly we were also…

The “you’ll find someone when you’re not looking” thing kind of worked for me. But only because I am a chatty person and so was he. Five years ago, I was waiting outside my apartment’s package room for them to reopen and a cute guy ran up to get a package too. We were forced to wait and so began talking. I was also…

I haven’t noticed any strong odors when I open the lid of the cat version. To be fair, our cats are kittens and their urine doesn’t have a very strong scent yet, but the poop certainly is room-clearing immediately after using the box. I think with good clumping litter, the smells kind of eventually get absorbed by the…

Off-topic-ish continued: As a woman and a feminist (not sure your gender or ideological leanings), agree and agree. I believe women should have equal treatment and that we should have equal responsibilities. Conscription has been a case-by-case basis anyway when it comes to combat, and so the excuse that many women…

So, do I have to have 100 teams? Or is my one kinda-shitty team (we’re in a 16-team league, so no one has an abundance of good players) good enough?

Okay, that’s great, but the whole point of this roast is that it’s processed food. Sometimes people WANT processed food. For the record, I usually agree with “fancy” prep like you are talking about (and yes, to a lot of people, your recipe is pretty fancy) but sometimes, I just want my mother-in-law’s chicken and rice…

You missed the entire point of this. This is a recipe for when you’re NOT trying. This is like an artist coming into the middle of a coloring book discussion and saying how much better a blank canvas and oil paints are.
