Me too. Also, you can totally get designer stuff that was once sold in real Saks store there, you just have to look at the labels and avoid the generic "Saks Black Label" or whatever they call the "store brand." Same with Neiman Marcus Last Call and Nordstrom Rack.

Our cat too...about 15 minutes before my fiance usually gets home from work every night, she will go sit on the stairs and wait for him. And every morning she comes in to wake us exactly 15 minutes before my alarm goes off at 6.

Literally and figuratively!

My twin brothers are the same. They had their own sacs and placentas, but you would be hard pressed to find two twins that look more alike.

My personal favorite, an extremely serious and detailed guide to sneaking your cat into work:

She might surprise you under the right circumstances. I had back surgery last year and was laid up for a week or so, and my weird antisocial little cat spent most of that time curled up next to me, literally touching my side, which she would never tolerate under normal circumstances.

You know what, I can't hate on the fried pig's ear, which I have enjoyed at a couple of different upscale restaurants, or the Fat Elvis, which I once had a version of that was basically the same thing only they wrapped it in an egg roll and fried it rather than battering it and frying it. But then, if there's pork…

Coffee shops confuse me too. The system I have arrived at is that I don't tip if I just get a cup of coffee, since that only comes to like $2 and requires virtually no effort of the part of the server, but I throw $1 in the jar if I get an espresso drink or something else that must be made for me. With counter service…

LOL, nope, other side of the state - I am headed back to Keene. And I agree on the NH being a great place to raise kids point - I don't see myself ever moving back because living in CA has helped me realize that I have actually always hated winter, but if it weren't for that it would be tempting. Especially when I…

That's interesting. I'm from NH, and I am positive that at least 50% of my graduating class is now living out of state (in fact I assumed NH's number is so low because people who want to leave usually do). Maybe its different on the eastern side of the state where the cities are larger and Boston is a reasonable…

I grew up in New Hampshire and I agree with you on all counts. I actually suspect that the percentage is so low because pretty much everyone who wants to get out and has the means to do so does either right after high school or right after college - I am positive that at least 50% of my HS graduating class is now…

Are you me? I'm an NH native who has been in SF three years too (and who extra-coincidentally is also going back to visit in three weeks). My theory about NH relative to this survey, though, is that the percentage is so low because everyone who is going to leave does so either just after high school, or just after…

I'm sure it's largely driven by the cost of living. I live in SF, and although I love it, I often think about how much better of a lifestyle my fiance and I could afford almost anywhere else, especially as we start to think about having a family. Together we make a little over $100K, but if we added a kid to the mix,…

Yeah, I feel like MUNI is almost as weird that weekend as the Folsom Street Fair Grounds themselves.

San Francisco has got to be the shit incident capital of the world. One evening a drug-addled homeless person had some kind of a psychotic break outside of our apartment, taking a giant dump in the middle of the sidewalk (while hanging off a tree for leverage, of course) before breaking into a van belonging to the…

I don't know, I think it still counts. It's not like you have to go to the Folsom Street Fair to experience the Folsom Street Fair...as long as you leave your home that weekend, you're guaranteed to see some weird shit.

I feel you. I have three weddings in four weeks between late August and mid September...including my own. New Hampshire (mine), Los Angeles (two weeks later), Maine (one week after that). We don't live in any of these places. I also have a weeklong honeymoon and a weeklong business trip in that same four-week period.…

I have five - one in San Diego, one in Los Angeles, one in Massachusetts, one in Maine, and one in New Hampshire. One is mine, I'm a bridesmaid in another, and my fiance was best man in a third. Two destination showers, two destination bachelor parties, and two destination bachelorette parties, because we live in San…

I agree. As someone who thought I lost my brand new engagement ring in a parking lot because it was way too big and slipped off my finger unnoticed (in my purse, as it turned out, thankfully), I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt. Stupidity or forgetfulness is not necessarily to blame.

My first thought is that I just can't believe it wasn't insured. But maybe it was new, and they hadn't had a chance to send in the paperwork yet...I thought I lost my ring in a Target parking lot right after I got it and before the insurance was finalized. It was a size and a half too big and it turned out it had…
