I love videos, but like it more when they have text too. I prefer to read when at the office ;)

Yes, I think this is what he’s getting at. To be honest, I find the tone abrasive as well. But that’s probably because I don’t like being called out on the fact that, any given work day, I’m probably getting distracted with comic book sites every now and then. Or messaging someone. Or getting into arguments in comment…

I agree with you. However, I think that they have an issue with drunk people riding in the road, i.e. if you are drunk and swerve into traffic and someone hits you. It is no fault of theirs, but it’s at the very least inconvenient and probably could be quite traumatizing.

I’ve been pulled over for pulling a U-turn within 100’ or so of an intersection. This is Chicago, so not sure if it’s a local ordinance or just bs. No ticket, so...

Chrome saves all your bookmarks to your Google account as well as your extensions. Signing in to google on another PC or device makes everything like it was elsewhere, instantly pops up with your Bookmark bar and starts installing all your extensions.

I keep looking at those savings numbers and thinking it would be so much better to skip having a kid and save that money for worldly adventure. At least I have a couple of years to decide, right?

When you’re heavy you don’t quite understand how it affects your life. Sure I feel great now, but when I try to run why does it feel like I’m running through wet sand? It’s like the old saying that ignorance is bliss. Well, I’ll just stay away from running right?

Camping is cheap. Making sandwiches and punch makes a great afternoon with a picnic. Yes, baby sitters can be expensive - hopefully eating sandwiches or just being together and reading in the park can save enough to pay for the sitter.

There’s a great 5 km hiking trail along the river in our town, and my wife and I try to hit it at least once a week. It’s a great opportunity to catch up.

I think the worst thing you can do for your kids is let your kids observe that you and your partner’s lives rise and set on the children. I would argue that the most important person in your life should always be your partner, not your children. After all, once the children are out of the house and living their own…

Dang every two years for a week! I want to go out that long twice a year at least!

I add a modifier. do those ALONE. not with friends or with a group. Alone to focus on each other and not others.

NO! It has NOT been tested for use on weekends, and Lifehacker’s medical staff has not vetted this for off-label usage! Please refrain from preparing new and/or exciting meals until the following Monday.

How about Of course because my company has it forced down via the Exchange Policies. I’d rather use a Pattern than a PIN since I think those are more secure but we don’t get that option.

Buy plenty of hand towels, I have ten that I cycle through. If it smells, definitely time to swap it out for a clean one.

I'd advise against washing pre-washed green. Any added step is just another chance to introduce pathogens into your product. It's been triple washed in chlorinated water by the time it gets to you so it's ready to go.

So you left your 401k with your ex-employer for 20+ years to realize the long-term rate of return on your investment, or you based your opinion and experience off of a few years of lackluster returns? Because the attitude that you're exemplifying is exactly what @mileage88 was talking about. Math doesn't lie. Think…

I hope you got as much enjoyment out of your preparations as it sounds like you did, because it also sounds like the value of the time and money you put in vastly exceeds the expected value of property loss from your home being burgled (considering the probability of this ever happening).

Wait, have I've been prepping my house for the wrong sort of threat?
