And hopefully we all have better things to do with our time than sit around rolling $81 in change.

I have not, but I would do the same thing. I imagine that the chefs working in those restaurants aren’t likely bad chefs - if anything, they simply have lower quality raw materials to work with. In that case, I’d hope they’d do their best to salvage even lower quality beef if given the opportunity to do so.

At a friend’s suggestion, I stopped specifying the doneness of my steak. Now, I simply say “however the chef recommends it be cooked”. Since then, I haven’t gotten a steak that I was unhappy with.

When I was waiting tables, I had a customer ask for a filet mignon to be cooked well done. I tried talking her out of it, that maybe the strip would be a better choice for well done. When she got it, she ate like three bites and then complained it was too tough. One of the few times I actually argued with customers…

This list kinda got out of hand, but here some of mine:

BYW, the correct answer for The National is Bloodbuzz Ohio - Lemonworld - Runaway off of High Violet.

I would say You and Whose Army, I Might Be Wrong, and Knives Out on Amnesiac (4,5,6).

I’m partial to the Two Headed Boy -> The Fool -> Holland 1945 sequence. Three very different songs that somehow manage to be exactly the thing you want to hear next. The flow of that album is so well done. 

I HATE live music in bars because it usually sucks.

you should have done this for every person looking to buy a used cavalier

Tom - I was the finance director at Bob Bell Chevrolet in Bel Air Md. for a few years in the early 2000's. A very young, uneducated couple with hourly wage income and beacon scores in the 500's wanted to buy a used Cavalier. At that time, the GMAC rep used to camp out in the sales tower underwriting applications on…

Pro Tip: If you you travel for work, buy a cheap meal with your own money and rack up a large tab at an airport bar which you put on your expense report. Personally, I’d rather not admit to my boss I spent $80 on booze, but when I only turn in one receipt it is assumed there was expensive food in there too.

I’m nowhere near mega-rich, but I’ve got an okay cushion so I don’t mind regularly picking up the tab for friends who might not be there yet. I do, however, start to feel resentful when they’re happy to go to town on my dime as a matter of course. I’m happy to pick up the tab at the place that serves diamond-crusted…

7. unclip one foot if you’re even thinking about stopping.

This is why you don’t mount from the right:

Damn. I need a better publicist.

The authoritarian regulation of what amounts to a moral decision or taste or should never taken on by government. The government should not be involved in any personal morals. The total legalization of all recreational drugs from alcohol to tobacco to cocaine....

If you don’t have a hotel, a generous tip to the luggage handlers AT a larger hotel will typically ensure your bags are looked after for same day dropoff/pickup.

The fact that the only media coverage of Men’s Day is on Women’s Day shows that the media is misandrist and controlled by a globalist feminist conspiracy!

You brilliant bastard. I will never see Eli again without thinking of him in a high chair yelling “AY-plane! AY-plane!”

Eli never cared for Papa John’s anyway. “Too spicy mama, too spicy” he would say when his wife would tell him to open the hanger for the airplane.
