I think an unfortunate side effect of the amount of bullshit we’re inundated with daily is that many people have developed their own arbitrary definition of what a “chemical” is and have developed their own system for avoiding them.

“99 of the Best LA Restaurants. Number 17 will make you organize a boycott to take down our corrupt benefactors!”

The most shocking thing about this is the way the Huffington Post made Ashley bury the lede. Sad!

The Significant Other Game - The game series your partner likes to play so you promise not to play without them, which sometimes means letting a game you’re dying to play sit waiting for them to get in the mood to play.

I’ve gone from a company with too many meetings to a company with not enough. I feel like I sit at my desk all day emailing people I barely recognize if I happen to pass them in the hall. Be careful what you wish for!

My Birthday is in November and my parents gave me Mario 64 one year, it being decided that they were teaming up with my grandma to get me a N64 for Christmas. I spent hours reading that manual, memorizing every move, and dreaming of playing the game until I finally got my N64. When I think back the excitement I felt…

carried more baggage than United Airlines...

Agreed. Selling pollution as a good thing is a tall order, but destroying the schools for most Americans so an elite few can have even better schools is on a completely different level of difficulty that she is absolutely not equal to, making her harmless (relatively speaking during this administration). 

Or perhaps in a similar vein, the projected increase in game sales due to good publicity from the change exceeded projected microtransaction revenue.

I’m actually impressed he got through that without the word “millennials.”

If you believe Lifehacker is a corrupt shill for the tech industry why even visit the site?

Growing up, the idea that pollution was bad was understood to be an undisputed fact. The idea that this is no longer the case and, in fact, a government official considered holding an event to brag about allowing more pollution is mind blowing.

I find it extremely hard to believe that any of his personal fouls “divide the locker room.” What is making you think that? I mean, one of the 4 penalties had zero impact on the game because it came after he drew a roughing penalty that sealed the win.

You’re right, I misunderstood your point. I thought you were saying these companies are being sold to PE because the seller needs their advice.

There is much to be said for the approach in this article, but for me the opposite approach worked out great. The amount of time my wife and I spent planning our wedding was insane. Basically 90% of our free time for a year. By the time the wedding was almost here, we were cursing ourselves for doing it, but the day…

Though in the case of large companies that PE firms are able to take over, the fact is that they probably have shitty marketing and a very bad IT system.

On the other hand, when I was working a particularly stressful job I found that I spent week days working nonstop, Friday and Saturday morning/afternoon decompressing from the week, and Sunday preparing to go back to work, leaving me with like 4hrs/ week not dominated by work. As the article says, it is all about…

The kids aren’t the ones asking to remove the magazines. Adults are, because they don’t want kids to buy them, so I still don’t understand your point.

If Edge gives me Lastpass support on all platforms (which I believe is in beta already) I’ll probably try making the switch. I’m tired of Chrome, which I already stopped using on my iPad in favor of Safari, so I’ll pretty much take any good excuse to change it up.

My parts are great, supportive, and I have a great relationship with them. But ever since I started making good money, I’ve felt a compulsion to hide this fact from them. Living within your meager means is such a part of their identity that I feel like the very fact that I’m successful would create friction (even…
