I think it’s a little wonky that you only come to GT to make notoriously vague posts that ask for advice, then you don’t really wade into the comments after. Comments that people put time and effort into and are well thought-out and usually helpful advice. You also don’t really spend time helping other people out or… Read more

You’ve never heard of chicken tikka masala? Or stir fry? Or enchiladas? Or ginger snaps? Honest to god, these are not weird hipster speciality items, and they’re available at lot more places than just Trader Joe’s.

Oh please, you don’t pick on a man with autism and blame it on a cranky day. Full stop. You also don’t sit around and laugh with your cronies about a Tumblr called “Shit Eisen Bolan Says” because you’re such a good person. Read more
