this was my first thought.

This is super valuable. I’ve been with my wife for several years, and pretty early on we developed a “No going to bed angry with eachother” rule. Because no matter how late it is or how early we have to get up for work, we’re not going to sleep well if we’re still mad (or hurt or resentful). Definitely a good rule to…

But don’t these guys practice for like 16 hours a day on Tuesday, Wednesday, (thursday - if they’re not playing), Friday, and Saturday? That shedule wouls suck. but if it was just game days, then yeah, cool.

“Nothing, since the person receiving your text already knows you’re addressing them.”

you had me until the two navel buttons buttoned... what the hell kind of look is that?!

Gin is my go-to liquor because I “like to make things difficult on myself, fancy myself too sophisticated for vodka; and because gin rules.” My preferred gin drinks are:*

I’ve gotten into this with friends too (and I also work from home). I leave my front door unlocked all the time and i have some friends who lock and deadbolt their door when they’re home. They also keep their backdoor locked, again, when they’re home. I think its weird cause my door is like literally always unlocked…

Lived in Northern Virginia (which legitimately is like living in an entirely different state). The rest of the state sucks. Anything south of Quantico and west of Dulles Airport is the fucking sticks. Its scary. Don’t go there. Really, everything else in that state is worthless. And also the alcohol laws suck - across…

Hey now... Virginian wine is actually really good. Not just subjectively good, but like international award winning good. Everything else though, yeah.

Sociopath... Pyschopaths are the villains, sociopaths are the henchmen (no impulse control).

When I was new to the region and did not know of this stupidity, I was driving up the turnpike and had to stop for gas. I pulled up, turned off my car, and got out to pump the gas before three attendants, the clerk in the store, and my passengers all yelled at me to “Get back into the car!! We (They) have to pump it…

Thats why we always make the Pre-Christmas liquor run to the Total Wines and More just across in Delaware. Even with traffic going to the beaches (at Christmas?!) it way faster and cheaper than trying to go to three. different. stores. to. get. beer. wine. and booze.

When making classics, like Egg Salad or tartar sauce, is it better to stick with the barebones recipes (e.g. eggs, mayo, salt pepper; or mayo, relish, lemon juice) or to fuck with it by putting all sorts of twists and “contemporary takes” on it, like putting horseradish or cajun seasoning in it?

Obviously this post is from last week, so it may not matter, but I’m confused by this line:

On the test thing: I had a physics teacher who would make the answer to 10, C on every multiple choice test. This was so that when we were going over the exams in class he could should “Tennessee!”

Jeez... the LRIP cost per unit on this is $394,000. With the full estimate, that cost is increased to $545,454... I think someone at DoD did their CBA wrong...

Not to get all Gawker on this, but how did he not get shot?

You’ve got a huge fan base, sure, but they can’t even be bothered to make it to the park by the second inning. Actually being required to do something extra to support their team? Not a chance...

Yeah, pretty much. This actually would have worked until a few years ago (I think) Switzerland passed a new law categorizing sporting officials as politically exposed persons, and thus subject to the same ethical and anti-corruption laws as actual politicians. But definitely, the argument will be that as a private…

I actually completely disagree with your entire comment, respectfully.
