Do you ever pick up when the calls come in?

A flower delivery guy once did that to me. I wasn’t expecting anyone, and I had just gotten out of the shower and was naked/dripping wet, so I didn’t answer. Dude fucking tried to turn the knob and pushed on the door, so I threw on a robe and read him the riot act and called the florist.

Same with mine. He hates that I lock both the deadbolt and the little switch on the handle, but sorry-not-sorry dude, I’m at home alone a lot because of his weird work schedule and I am not about to get murdered because my husband doesn’t like having to unlock the door.

I once left my front door unlocked for like three whole days/nights without realizing it. When I finally discovered it I checked every closet, under the bed, ANYWHERE that a weirdo could be hiding out because HOLY SHIT.

Where did you hear that she was using her prescription illegally? Because all this article says is that she had a prescription for Ambien, became chemically addicted to it, and then sought treatment for that addiction. Ambien is well known for being chemically addictive, and it’s not illegal to have an addiction. So…

It may very well turn out that they weren’t legally able to do it, in which case they will likely have to offer her her job back and/or pay a settlement.

Yeah, but no. If someone comes to my house and threatens to stab me with a wine glass, their ass is getting physically removed from my property. This aggression will not stand, man.

Not everyone who engages in bad behavior is mentally ill. Sometimes people are just assholes.

I think it’s called “public school”.

Thank you, this is actually a helpful answer. Is there a benefit to a sous vide that a slow cooker or pressure cooker doesn’t offer?

I’m just trying to figure out what’s better about this device than, say, a slow cooker or just using your stove/oven. Because I really don’t get it.

The journey of boiling everything you eat into oblivion and then having to torch the outside just to make it taste like something?

Or you could just cook the meat normally and save yourself the extra step of browning it with a torch? I don’t really get the appeal of the sous-vide. Why would you want to eat everything boiled?

I repeated to her that I was 28 years old, said I was traveling on business and that if she really thought I was 15 years old or younger I’d pull out my driver’s license. She let it go, but it didn’t stop her from being condescending for the rest of the flight.

I once had a flight attendant (on Delta, would you believe) tell me that I couldn’t sit in the exit row because you have to be at least 16 to be seated there. I told her I was 28, and instead of apologizing she said “Am I going to have to make you show me your ID?”

I didn’t really care much for the young Scottish woman (totally blanking on her name), but even she was delightful by the standards of most reality TV.

Ha, sorry. I think my post was prompted by the person who said they didn’t realize a grande was a liter of coffee.

It’s like those wing nuts last year who were giving their name as “MERRY CHRISTMAS” when the red holiday cups came out because they thought they were being clever for forcing Starbucks employees to write something “Christian” on an otherwise nonreligious cup.

A grande is 16 ounces, which is substantially less than a liter.

For me, the key is to get one with ONE shot of flavor, rather than the absurd FOUR that’s standard at Starbucks. Gives it some flavor without making it taste like I’ve swallowed the entire seasonal section at Michael’s.
