This happened for me with bell peppers, onions and pineapple. Couldn’t stand any of them but I kept trying them when they came across my path so now I tolerate them much better.

It isn’t a lie - I took a college course that had a unit about the history of sex work and learned about it from primary sources like newspapers and journals of the time talking about erotic dancers at circuses and the Chicago World’s Fair using the poles to spin and pose around.

I feel sorry for her, really. I grew up with people like this. Angry at the world, combative, defensive-everyone is against them, no one is in their corner, even people who try to help aren’t really trying to help them.

Based on context cues, I assuming you meant white supremacy but clarity in your writing is always a good thing when communicating with people who may not have the same background or cultural cues as you.

I don’t know what “WS” means. If you’re gonna acronym something, use the full words first for clarity.

In the part where I literally quoted you saying that you “don’t have these problems in the Latino community”. What problems were you referring to if not the children doing racist shit? 

OH. MY. GOD. Do not do ANY personal grooming in public. No flossing, no nail clipping, no ear cleaning, no shaving. He’s probably getting cut hairs all over that table too (yes, most of the hair gets sucked up in the machine but I’ve lived with a dude before-it doesn’t get everything).

we don’t have these types of problems with the Latino community

No, everything about Dottie’s character indicates that she wouldn’t have thrown that game, or any game, for her sister. Dottie wouldn’t let Kit win the stupid race to their house at the beginning of the film. She told Jimmy to take Kit out of the game when she had nothing left. She told Helen to throw high fast balls…

I’m specifically talking about them calling it “appropriation” which I disagree with. They seem to be saying that pole dance is only for exotic dancers and anything other than that is “appropriation” which is pretty nonsensical, in my opinion. Pole dance isn’t a sacred art form, it isn’t culturally important to any…

If you want to fuck up your ankles and get some skinned knees, sure. They aren’t designed to be a street shoe (as discussed in the article). 

She needs to get her head in the game and get some better coaching. Thankfully she’s young so she’s got some years to mature because spouting all this defensive claptrap while placing last isn’t the move.

It’s not unheard of for people to be friends with folks who have said shitty things to them in the past and really not unheard of for people to enter into dating-type relationships with those people. 

I had a splinter in my finger for MONTHS. It got wedged super far down and eventually my body expelled it by pushing it out slowly. Like I could see it making it’s way up through the hole it came in through. Eventually when enough was out, I got it with some tweezers. 

John Krasinski wasn’t a writer on the show. I’m pretty sure it was BJ. Paul Lieberstein (Toby), Mindy and BJ were the only writers/actors in the first season and I doubt Paul would have suggested that Toby tell Kelly she should lose 15 pounds. That wouldn’t have been in character.

Seems like a reasonable/not bad idea to me. I have friends who I travel with a certain way. I have others I can’t travel with that way and it would be nice for my own Broke Bobby to admit that she’s tapped out, get over her FOMO and not come on certain trips that she can’t afford.

My opinion after watching that movie approx. 6 million times: no Dottie didn’t intentionally drop the ball, but she didn’t really feel bad about losing because Kit finally got out from under her shadow and exceeded her at something that Kit really cared about. 

She might not know how to swim and/or she saw the dude charging in from the other side so would cause more damage going in rather than staying out of the way. 

Showering after work, for me, is about getting the grime of the day off me before I get in my nice, clean bed. I don’t always do it now that I work from home (no real need) but if I go out into the world, I shower before bed.

I have no doubt in my mind that he sweats, he’s just nasty. Some (disgusting, BO stinky) people seem to think that if you get your pits and bits you’re alright but no the fuck you are not.
