don’t do anything fun

Anywhere you find a Mumsy and Da-da who bought an Ivy a new library so Mary could get the degree she needed to get nepotized into the trading desk at Da-da’s bank.

Sometimes I really miss not being vegan.

My friend got TSA Pre and has never been hastled since.

There is not and has never been a credible threat that someone would hijack a plane with a water bottle. Checking for liquids is security theater. There is not and has never been a credible threat that someone would blow up a plane with their shoes (as we already saw, it is not possible). Taking off shoes is security…

There should be a separate terminal for people like you and me, who are willing to take our chances that we’ll be in the whatever fraction of a percent of people who actually experience terrorism if it means we can avoid all this nonsense.

It’s called the Fourth Amendment, and I find it vaguely troubling that you’ve never heard of it. Most of the stuff TSA does is not a reasonable search, as it is not intended to protect anybody but only to give the appearance of trying.

I totally agree, except they shouldn’t be armed. If they feel an armed response is necessary they should retreat and call for backup.

I don’t think the article was meant to say you should feed your non-vegan guests the vegan food. I think it was meant to provide options to serve alongside whatever meat/egg/dairy you’re serving.

So apparently I’m in the minority but I think this is totally fair. How is it less of a dick move for me to expect you to do extra work than it is for you to tell me you won’t? Doesn’t make sense to me. Sure, if you want to impress me with your cooking skills/research skills/etc. that’s fabulous, but if you’d rather…

All of your suggestions are also good (and bibimbap is a good fit for this article because it’s just as easy to do DIY stations as it is with tacos and burritos), but meat substitutes overall haven’t been subpar in years. If a host just wants to throw some things on the grill and be done with it, Smart Dogs and Beyond…

Thanks! I saw it on one of those shows about extreme frugality. World’s Most Extreme Cheapskates, or something to that effect.

Nickelback is a shitty band, but as far as I know none of the members have driven a car into a group of protesters because they believe they should be the only band on Earth. It’s not the same thing.

Look, you don’t understand. All he’s saying is if Americans were nice and tolerant like they say they are, they would have let Hitler win World War II and not interfered with the whole genocide of all non-Germans on Earth thing. Because if you really respect human lives, you will let one group of people wipe out…

Sounds fine to me. There is nothing about sitting in a car, and then at a desk, and then in a car, and then on a couch, that makes you dirty enough to need a head-to-toe cleansing with soap and water every 24 hours.

I never heard of a shampoo bar before. Definitely going to look into that.

Hot showers dry out your skin. The reason body wash is hard to wash off is because of the moisturizers that don’t get absorbed. So you’d be using moisturizers you didn’t need, then drying out your skin to get rid of them, leaving you worse off than when you started.

Take the foot end of a pantyhose and cut it for the length you want. Drop a bar of soap in and tie it off. DIY exfoliating soap on a rope, and when the bar gets too small to handle easily you just drop another bar in. Nothing is wasted.

It’s pretty cheap and easy to DIY. https://www.apartmenttherapy.com/how-to-make-homemade-bubble-ba-111086

Bar soap is also better for the environment since it generally comes in a cardboard box or, at worst, some plastic wrap.
