Looking for a roommate when you're part of a couple sucks. No one wants to live with couples, which I completely understand, but NYC can be stupid expensive and we don't have a large enough budget to afford a studio or 1 bedroom in the neighborhoods we're searching in.

Some, but for the most part Judaism actually encourages its practitioners to be questioning and not to just blindly believe everything they read or an authority figure tells them.

It's not necessarily about training for something but if the person is working out in a way that is actually detrimental because of bad posture or too much weight, then that's bad.

Maybe but it's an actual job title.

Pop songs can be slow. The lyrics may be slightly pretentious, which I don't think they are, but I'd take that over mind-numbing, nonsense choruses of most contemporary pop.

Because it's a pretty good pop song?

Her mother was on vacation, Joan lamented about it when she was scolded the babysitter for getting there late to watch Kevin in the morning. It seems the babysitter is usually part-time but while Joan's mom is away she has been watching Kevin all week.

Yeah, that's confusing me too. It's one thing if the bar were charging entry to view the episodes but I'm pretty sure they don't. Heck, there's another bar one block down that I know of that airs GoT too. HBO are just being dicks for the sake of it, it seems.

This, so much. My boyfriend's roommate is the perfect example of this. She doesn't have a job, mommy helps her with the rent and yet she can't be bothered to take out the recycling or buy toilet paper every once in a while.

Yeah those people are crazy. If my boyfriend and I could find a 1 bedroom or oversized studio in Kensington, I would snap on it in a minute. Part of what is limiting our search is his desire to be closer to work and his rehearsal space, which of course is in Williamsburg. I'm hoping that once he sees how limited our…

Hell no! A great taco is hard to find. That taco truck is actually one of the top 3 things I'll miss once I move.

Or maybe they just have different needs than you do? I'm in South Brooklyn now so I'm not debating that more affordable housing isn't available, just that a huge portion of Brooklyn is no longer affordable compared to even 10 years ago and that it's only going to continue spreading.

Those are just the people who have to pay their own rent; they can still be hipsters but are decidedly less annoying.

I've only been a couple time so you're probably right, which explains the inclusion of so many Kurt Russell movies!

Does your team need a 6th?

I'm not white but I completely get what you mean about feeling like you're part of the problem. My biggest thing with gentrification is that those doing the gentrifying don't really contribute to the community or do anything to maintain the character of the neighborhood.

Or living off mommy and daddy's money whilst fucking up the local real estate market for 10 years until they get married and move away.

My boyfriend, who is white as hell and has a huge beard, and I are in Boro Park and when he started noticing more white dudes patronizing his favorite taco truck, even he was upset!

And their movie trivia is so freaking obscure and pretentious! And no, I'm not bitter that my team didn't win.*

Reflexive verbs, you may remember them from high school. To whore oneself out implies the person is doing it to or for themselves, and their benefit. If someone else coerces you into exchanging sex for money, as is what happened with the partners of SCDP and Joan, then they whored Joan out for an account. No one is…
