Rocky and Bullwinkle/Borris and Natasha/Peabody and Sherman (all old school varieties) would top that list instantly.

Nah, it’s just being an old state full of religious people. I mean, there are children in grocery stores!

Well, that’s apples and oranges. Beating on someone or pretending to do it isn’t a big deal. It’s only a problem when you do it on video. Duh.

Why do you think Millennials think that is new? Because they don’t enjoy the uncalled for criticisms that accompany it?

I’m a borderline Millennial, I disagree with a lot of the consensus opinions like those about selfies and privacy, but I’m tired of this bullshit. The hard evidence I’ve seen shows Millennials work more for less because Baby Boomers fucked up the economy. Anecdotally, these parents have always existed and I haven’t…

This story is great! “My child was so excited to play in the oven, and now you scared her.”

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is actually great. And for my family that wouldn’t even rate on the awkward scale...

I work as a Behaviorist. Frequently there is overlap between us and Cognitive Behavioral Therapists. When you hear a recommended treatment be CBT it’s really hard not to react.

For me the shock would have been from panic about how to answer. Back of the house, “Fuck the goat, assuming that the goat is your mother.” Front of the house panic because no matter what I pick there are good odds that someone at a table next to me is going to be offended and if I don’t answer then I run the risk of…

That is a sign I would pull over for a photo op with.

I have no idea. But I do know that none of my coworkers thought anything was wrong with it. I had to go home and google it to make sure I wasn’t crazy. (I also think there is a reference to it in Arrested Development).

Not really on topic, but where you mortified when “corn-holing” became a term for throwing beanbags into holes in wood? At my old job they had corn-holing tournaments and I just didn’t...

One day when I was in college I ran into someone from my old weekend-religious school who was the son of one of the best teachers I ever had. He and a friend of mine both attended UMBC. He made the “yoUr Mom Blows Cows” line and I responded with a “speaking of your mom, how is she?” It was both not my proudest moment…

Of course. I can’t use my real name.

I have the same thing. At restaurants when I tip with cash I write “CASH” on the tip line when I pay with a card because I don’t want to appear like an asshole. And I’d be neurotic enough to write a line somewhere in the order promising I’d tip cash...

Mojitos are a very seasonal thing for me. In the dank humid oppressive Baltimore summer heat a mojito is a necessity. In the winter, not so much.

That name is taken? Great, now what name will I use when I become a porn star?

That’s weird, I’m Baltimore born and raised and I’ve always thought of University of Maryland as being College Park and in my experience UMBCers will say UMBC either because they are proud (Chess Team!) or fake-embarrassed/secretly proud (yoUr Mom Blows Cows is something I’ve heard it referred to as more then once).…

I get why food/drink prices would rise but I don’t get why that wouldn’t even out for a good customer who tips. The only people who would really be paying more would be non-tippers. How does this system work in non-tipping countries. I’ve been to restaurants in both and the food prices don’t seem staggeringly…
