lol "1) Will we be any less married at the end of the day if we skip it?"

oh I did, for sure....my comment wasn't really directed at you :) I was just tryna say that the era of the "calorie" has conditioned people to think in terms of one specific unit being the be-all/end-all of health, u know? So now in this case, we have another over-simplified measurement - the sugars - which people…

this is why I think using units like the calorie to measure healthiness led people into not using their thought process when choosing. Like, yes, fruit often has a ton of sugar, and if you measure the sugar you can say it has the "same" amount as Coke or whatever, but the words that come out of people's mouths is…

oh snap the CLUB!! I haven’t seen that in years lol I forgot all about it - do people still use those?? I gotta google this; funny how something so ubiquitous can just disappear from your consciousness and you don’t even notice. I guess that shows how useless it really is lol

First steps before planning any details: Condition yourself to not "need" fanfare, and rid yourself of any one-upsmanship feelings you've had drilled into your head your whole life. I don't mean that in a sarcastic way; there are SO MANY nonsense (read: EXPENSIVE) traditions that people do just 'cause they think…

Thanks for this comment...I’m currently doing a short-term contract in IT for the State; maybe I can sneak in there somehow

WHY WOULD THEY LEAVE 24 OFF THIS LIST GRRR

I’m SO jealous of a buddy of mine; he got a basic low-paying job at Bose, and then got transferred somehow to their development team and they’re teaching him coding in multiple languages from scratch. He’s making apps and stuff already, and only started with that dept a few months ago. I think that’s the best way to…

“a single guy, drunk, we can overlook”

Bad: “How did you learn to do all this?!” (How could you possibly understand and use this)

I don’t think that’s what Raised_By_Heathens was saying lol...not that it’s existence is a conspiracy, but (if I’m understanding it right) it was “cooked up” and released on people at some point, by powerful people. I’d love to hear more about that; I love a good conspiracy theory but this better be good and…

I’m not saying it’s “ok” to put mom and pop shops out of business...what I’m saying is that this complaint is obsolete - it’s OVER. No one is going to get rid of Amazon/Alibaba; mom and pop businesses are going to suffer, because laziness will always win. Sure, I could get myself to swing by my local “Brackets and…

I don’t think “conflict of interest” works in this context. And neither does “absolute last resort” when talking about shopping on Amazon. That ship has sailed; we live in the age of shopping online; it’s been this way for a while now. You can complain all you want (even if some of your points are valid); it’s over.

I feel like the easy answer to any "is it possible to be addicted to _____" is YES, if:

I created these Turkey Tacos - trust me, this is great - I've blown many a mind with this one:

The best way to ensure that you're getting the freshest eggs possible, is to reach in and rip 'em out yourself

this is mad racist

ew, dawg

for what it's worth, I got that advice from a job search expert years back...but yes I HATE that loaded question "is now a good time to talk?" lol you're basically already on an interview as soon as you answered, and now you have to say "now's not a good time but I picked up the phone for no reason so I'm already…

yeah it seems selfish at first, but any person calling with a true emergency probably knows you very well, so they know they probably won't get you and will either text you or call from the number they always call you from. In the instance where you get important calls from unknown numbers about jobs or interviews, I…
