I am saddened by what your family endured, under Nazi rule. Nothing like that should ever happen anywhere.

I’ll admit that woman made a pretty stupid statement, and the state of the American educational system is fucked, but goddamn, I’m tickled pink to read a comment from a German who, without a trace of irony or self-awareness, states that he wants someone arrested for saying what she thinks. Great shit, man. Thanks for

Oh! This isn’t like a break up story but I stopped hanging out with my bff because he was into me like that and became pretty possessive.

You know that is Revlon Rum Raisin.

Hilariously right after our schools switched to new-uniforms which required polo shits or school shirts only, a bunch of girls figured out there was no “no spaghetti strap” rule anymore and started wearing thin-strapped tank tops (in school colors, which WAS required by school uniform code) over their polos as a

From my Facebook page regarding this and the “what about black on black” crime shit I keep reading posted by other black folks:

Oh, silly school administration. Don’t you know who he is? He’s Justin Bieber, he sells monogrammed coffee thermoses for a living. He can do anything he wants, including crashing your prom.

get the ladybugs out of the room after he was gone all day and left the window open. we moved him to a different room and just waited for morning when the ladybugs left on their own. every surface was covered with ladybugs

My husband had to restrain me at a Disney World counter-service restaurant, where we waited in line to order for FIFTEEN MINUTES, and the people in front of me STILL had to lingeringly peruse the menu board which had been plainly visible to them for FIFTEEN MINUTES (did I mention we’d all been standing in front of it

I know we’re getting way off topic here considering this is a food blog but since you shared a crazy tech support story I’ve got one that I am dying to get out.

My favorite dive bar story - I live in Chicago, land of summer festivals and block parties. My friends and I spent a Saturday afternoon at a festival, but when it started to rain we head into the nearest bar. It’s pretty dive-y, which is perfect because that’s what we like. I ordered a vodka soda - the bartender asked

The beer refill one made me think of this time I was at this super divey bar to see a burlesque show. The waitress comes over and asks me what I want. There is no drink menu. I ask what they have. The following ensues (feel free to make fun of my taste in beer):
W: Whatever you’d like.
Me: Oberon please.
W: We don’t have

DIPPING TOBACCO! What action are you conducting? Sticking your finger (which, in tool form, would be a spoon) and pulling a small amount out of a larger container.

Also, it’s interesting that you are so sure that “dipping something out” cannot possibly be correct. I now refer you and all readers to the star constellations commonly known as the Big and Little Dippers.

The waitress in that second story was so hilariously clueless, I pictured her as Starfire from Teen Titans Go. “On Tamaran, we offer the free refills of the beverages!”

Jamie Allmeyer’s story reminds me of my checkered history of ordering drinks in Utah. There’s the time I was told the wine special was “peanut gringo.” There’s the time my wife and I ordered two margaritas and had four individual glasses delivered to our table (Cuz, y’know, we each wanted two margaritas a piece.

Jamie Layton’s story reminds me of a famous story I heard when I was working at a regional theater festival.
