When I was in America I was told it was because American servers draw such crummy wages that if you don't tip, they don't get paid.

Every fucking time I post something about tipping, someone has to come in with "it's so much better in OUR country!" YES. WE KNOW. WE FUCKING KNOW THIS BY NOW. The only thing your repeated trumpeting of this fact that WE ALL KNOW BY NOW accomplishes is that it taunts servers who have to put up with this shit in…

Benjamin Franklin apparently liked to receive guests of all social strata in a housecoat/bathrobe. What I'm saying is, this is what we fought for.

In the U.K., these "guidelines" have force of law. The U.K. is actually a very fascist place, only barely removed from the (relatively recent) days you were drawn and quartered for speaking ill of the Royal Family.

I've worked for his campaign since 2007. They are the realest couple I've ever interacted with in politics. They are head over heels in love and they LIKE each other. It's lovely to witness.

Everytime I hear somebody say "War on Christmas" I just stare blankly at them. The stores display their Christmas wares in late August where I live and the Hallmark Channel started showing 24 hour Christmas movies on Halloween night. Cartoon Network even ran Christmas movies back on July 25th as a "countdown" to…

Daycare for kids is vastly more expensive than daycare for dogs.

Not really clear... Depending on which chunk of the Upper West Side they're talking about it could be African-American, Jewish or LGBT. Or hell, artists, I don't know... All of the above?

I don't think she's saying she doesn't buy it, I think she is saying that she hasn't seen it happen. And that's bullshit about your omelette. I hope you complained, though if they're that full of shit, I can see why one wouldn't have the energy to bother.

I am in no way equating racism with this experience, by the way,…

Right? Do they have Zabar's receipts for eyes? Woody Allen DVDs where their mouths should be? Head-to-toe Lincoln Center tattoos? Nonstop complaints about the 1? What's the tell?

Whether I spend my discretionary income on myself or my dogs has no effect whatsoever on parents who can't afford daycare.

My neighbor names her chickens after her co-workers.

He's wearing the hell out of that uniform!

I doubt if you went twenty or even ten generations back my family even had surnames. Unless "the tailor" and "wife of the butcher's apprentice" count as surnames. (Yes, all my knowledge of shtetl life comes from Isaac Bashevis Singer stories and Fiddler on the Roof. Deal with it.)

I'll give you awkward. I have a cat named James. I also have a coworker who's nickname is James. (The cat came before I started working with him) Me: "I'm so tired James kept waking me up playing with my hair last night" *taking in horrified look on everyone's face* "OMG my cat, I mean my cat, James."

Yeah, by 'more of this' I meant more of this particular puppy who looks happy.

Banjo plans to live forever

Pffffft, speak for yourselves, inferior dog owners. My Buster is going to live to be at least 35.
