Seriously. At most maybe skim a block or two off before the cops come as a “reward,” but anything more than that is going to have you end up like an extra on Breaking Bad!

Hmm - reading those articles it does seem like they in fact may have followed the complete backdoor model (in fact Buzzfeed links to the same Reuters series I referenced). SHADY. Hope that poor little boy is OK :-(.

So have sex with a senior citizen - problem solved! ;-)

The terrifying thing is that there are people out there much worse than this - people who literally hand off children adopted from abroad to strangers they meet on Facebook who then in many cases abuse or traffic the children. While many countries do at least some checks on US adoptive parents there’s virtually no…

Just as an update, I was able to speak to someone from the IRS a couple of weeks ago, and was told by the (very helpful and patient) man who I spoke to that his office had just started to reopen and he was amongst the first who was back. (I was calling because the “Where’s my refund?” tool kept saying they had no…

I can only speak to NYC, but whether or not you get moved along has a lot more to do with neighborhood and congestion than anything else here. On some streets like 125th I’ve seen TRIPLE parking get ignored depending on time of day; in midtown during the workday no one would be allowed to just sit there. And again,…

What? First, livery drivers don’t have a license to park illegally; and second, the whole point of having a driver run errands for you is that they can either sit in the car and wait double-parked or drive around and come get you when you’re done. Not to mention the fact that streets are deserted now and…

Now I’m afraid I’m overselling it! Basically the main trainwreck couple bonds over the fact that the woman says she knows how to make Italian beef. Since they have nothing in common and nothing much to say to each other they actually end up talking about Italian beef quite a bit! 

Scanned through looking for a reference to Love Is Blind and was disappointed ;-). 

Something tells me that that the last thing Robert Pattinson cooked before this monstrosity was meth? And I bet it came out much better! 

Wait, there is a Melissa Clark instant pot cookbook? Tell me more! Is it worth buying?

Seriously. That’s basically a joint quarantine and as long as no one is in a particular risk for infection/illness (e.g., a health care worker or immunocompromised) the risk is not that much higher than being in the same household. For example, I live alone but see my sister and her teenaged son, around once a week or…

I made these yesterday and they were fine. Easy and a fun thing to try, but not something I’d go out of my way to make when I’ve got less time on my hands. Whoever said these should be rolled out to 1/8" thick was right on the money, the first one I made was more like a third of an inch and was still raw in the middle…

Could you provide a little detail into what “good” and “delicious” actually mean??? Like, does it basically just taste like a burger in a different format, or is it in any way like actual pate? Also, are there any condiments on the burger (pickle, ketchup, whatever) or is it just meat and bun? So many questions are…

He took a bite of that travesty afterwards. That’s enough to make anyone stop laughing! 

Exactly. To me a failure is something borderline (or actually) inedible, not “didn’t taste as good as I was expecting”!

Please, you call these failures? My sister is someone who loves to eat but has no good instincts about how to actually cook food at all. One time she asked me to try a pasta sauce she made. Her brilliant idea was to combine crisp bits of potato with a tomato sauce. This wasn’t a great idea to begin with and she also…

Joe Exotic did pretty much the same things though, just with guys rather than women and with the copious use of drugs to keep them compliant. This whole show is a race to the bottom. .  .

I agree. I’m not prone to depression thank goodness, but I do live alone. I am a 15-minute walk from my sister and her son though, and we decided a while back that we could stay in NYC if we could still get together around once a week. (Otherwise we were considering going to stay with our parents in a state where…

Limiting the number of people is really the only effective approach in many stores unfortunately. Last week I went to a large drugstore that would only let in 10 people at a time, maintaining the distance was easy. After that I went to a supermarket with lines on the floor, but the problem is that the lines went into…
