Yes, but have you seen them on Vine? They’re totally charming. No disrespect, I just think they’re adorable, and I love that they regularly crush the dreams of would-be homeowners by showing them awesome places they can’t afford and the home buyers are like “It’s PERFECT” and then they’re like “THAT HOUSE IS $500k…

Gotcha. Yeah, I can definitely understand a preference to not being by the aisle, but trying to move to an empty middle seat? Party foul.

Yay! Glad to help out! :)

What the EFF. That’s bonkers!

You are my HERO.

I got hit with a Vitamin D deficiency diagnosis last year, and my friends and I have never stopped making jokes about it. This made my day. :)

I used to take the bus to work and walk the rest of the way to my office (about ten minutes). For a span of a couple of months, a blind man was on the same route as me and got off at the same place, and since we were both heading the same way, we eventually got to talking.

If the Queen is stopping by, I up my game and make a visit to Rite Aid for candles. Gotta roll out the red carpet, amirite?

One of my more memorable sex dreams starred the cast of the 1997 movie Titanic. And I mean the WHOLE cast; Kate and Leo, sure, but also Kathy Bates, Ioann Griffudd, Victor Garber.... It was like starring in a porno version of the movie. The plot progressed more or less as it did in the film, but there were periodic,…

Yeah, same, actually. I pay peanuts for rent in my area and am more focused on maxing out my retirement accounts and paying off the remainder of my student loans; I’m not in a hurry to put down roots. But I check out Zillow just to see what’s out there from time to time, and in just the past few years I’ve been in my…

I’m at that awkward point where every time I get enough money saved up that I could conceivably put something resembling a down payment on a modest house in a neighborhood I like, I have already been priced SO FAR out of it. By Boomers, apparently. BAH.

WHOOOOOOO MILILANI GIRL MAKES GOOOOOOOOOD. I am SO STOKED for this movie.

“Over at Elite Daily”

Al Gore came to my elementary school when he was still VP. Which was fine, but I grew up in Hawaii, so this was almost definitely a case of “yeah yeah, I’ll go to whatever elementary school you want, just lemme drink beer on the beach afterwards.”

They had two HUGE and very public rounds of layoffs either earlier this year and maybe last year. During the second round, they let about 90% of their developers go. They must have realized their mistake, because now they’re trying to recruit some of them back (to which all the former ModCloth devs I know are all…

I like to keep it simple: bed of greens, quinoa & sweet corn on top, and a vinaigrette made out of red wine vinegar, dijon mustard, and olive oil. Add chicken if desired and/or not mad lazy like I am.

Pittsburgh don’t need them fancy ‘tato chips, what with alla them flavored popcorns the Market District keeps pumping aht. YINZ.

There’s definitely one on the North Side at the corner of Allegheny and Western, if you’re interested enough in trying these chips to make a special trip.

That last sentence = hella truth bomb. I think it’s fine to talk about your travels, as long as it makes sense with the conversation you’re having, and you’re talking about actual cool things that happened, not just that you were physically at a place.

This drives me NUTS. Knew someone my freshman year of college who tried to play the “lived” card re: a six-week summer exchange trip to Japan she’d taken in high school.
