No, he brought up an anecdote and didn't want to actually deal with a rebuttal by making an appeal to authority.

There's a reason why the plural of "anecdote" isn't "data".

When I was younger, I wanted to be Celeste. I don't know why...I really just loved the way it sounded. But then, as a Jennifer, I have a very, very common name.

I always try to tip 20% unless the service was terrible. I used to bus tables, and I know from experience how little you make waiting on tables and how stressful the job can be. I'll tip extra for great service, but it can be so disheartening to have a terrible day and get short-changed on the tip on top of it.

Birds can't get legal identification. But hey, jump off anyway, only one way to find out for sure.

To be fair to Penndot, you have to go in person to change anything on a license.

This!! I mentioned it in a different thread, but in ~2002 I read an epic (in length and complexity) and very well-written fanfic which, among other things, featured Draco and his various romantic relationships with the main female characters (tbh I cannot remember which one he ends up with).

Women lose desire for their partners when said partners stop trying, don't respect them, don't contribute to the running of the household, don't show affection unless they want to get their dicks wet, etc. If you want your wife to fuck you, give her a reason to want to fuck you. Or you can just expect her to do it as…

Draco's undeveloped character is the greatest crime of HP.

You know what, I will! Thanks! Who know when that will be though...

Or even paying a local tailor or seamstress to alter your <$10 purchase!

Learning to do your own alterations can greatly enhance thrifting!

Did the penguins have to commute through the freezing rain today in the middle of a fucking Tube strike? Oh, they didn't? THEN I DON'T EVEN WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT, PENGUINS.

And this is why the only thing I ingest is pure, organic virgin's blood. Great for the skin, too! And running them down on moonlit nights is great exercise.

Speaking from a Thai perspective, I think it says more that someone else is telling her story than herself as she just wants to lead a normal life. Being humble is greatly valued so for someone to narrate the commercial it gives more "weight" to her story. It's all about being humble and discreet which shows a…

Okay, the only bar you mention that I recognize - besides the Squirrel Cage - is Silky's Pub but have you ever been to the Sharp Edge? It may not be called that anymore, it might be the Beer Emporium or something like that, but it has a GREAT selection. It's actually not far from Silky's in Friendship. Maybe even…

The Squirrel Cage, exactly! I didn't even know about that place until recently, man, next time in town, I will be spending ALL my nights out there. I can't believe I was 21 in that town (and prior to that had a fake ID) yet had never been to the Squirrel Cage. BULLSHIT. I blame my cooler, more with-it friends who…

I need to check out the Shadyside one! I keep forgetting they have beer now! Not sure what your preferred poison is, but if you're crazy about funky craft beers and imports, D's Six Pax in Regent Square has an amazing selection for mix and match six packs. Blue Dust in Homestead is also really good (and just an all…

Shadyside Market District - that's the one on Highland, right??? If so, that's SOOOOO close to my mom's house! Beer progress in the burgh!

Giant Eagle! Are you in the Pittsburgh area?? If so, I'll have to tell everyone I know the good news!

"Motherfuckers live in places that don't exist, and it comes with a map" will forever be my explanation when people ask me why I don't like fantasy.
