Nothing “artisan” is sold at a fast food restaurant, Starbucks included.

Ha! Here is a summation of what you wrote:

I worked at Target in the mid-90s, and we didn’t take foreign currency. But I was much further south than you.

Never trust a man who loves jorts, crocs, and ponytails.

The problem with that is that almost all banks will charge you a fee, and give you the discounted exchange rate. So you’ll loose a lot of money in the process.

Why would I do that, when I can go to a drug or grocery store and get a bottle of water for $0.99, or not pay $2 for a single, black-spotted banana?

Not a bad idea!

Here’s how to really reduce your waste:

I disagree. People are doing those with real mental illness some serious harm. When you make light of a disease, you really make it more difficult for those who suffer to live a normal life, and they are less likely to seek treatment.

“Hot”?

My wife is a psychiatrist, and no, a psychopath is not a sociopath.

Maybe she wrote a letter to Dog Fancy’s advice column upset about the pets.

I’m actually not too far from you, only a bit to the east. Alternate side for my neighborhood is only designated for once a week, per side. In front of my building has no parking on Friday mornings, so every Thursday evening, after work, I move the car across the street.

People used to do that shit in New York... but it’s really stopped in the last ten years or so. Unless there is a city issued sign saying you can’t park on certain areas of the street, all is fair game.

If you have a life that requires a car, and you can’t afford to park it, you need to live in another borough in NYC.

No, if you’re doing a keto diet, you shouldn’t be eating a ton of veggies. And many, many fruits and veggies contain a lot of net carbs (e.g. carrots, apples, pears, peaches). You need to eat fats, and a lot of them. Otherwise, you’re not really on the diet.

People who begin a sentence with “dude” cannot to be taken seriously.

Hearing a hard “no” to a request is far healthier than this modern day practice of saying “I will respectfully take your request into consideration.”

From my comment: “Kids have got to understand their wishes can’t all be granted, or even taken into consideration.”
