I'm in engineering and construction. Our dress code is safety first, and wipe the mud off your shoes before coming in. My gf works for a company that only recently relaxed their rules requiring women wear hose and shoes that don't expose toes. They still can't have a bare shoulder. Oddly, she has no rules…

add filters to make them look like a picture taken in 1978!

Same. Every picture I see from my friends on Instagram, I also see in my feed from them on Facebook, so I don't really get the point except for the filters. The new version, which I haven't tried (if it's in fact available yet) that lets you vary the intensity of the filter sounds interesting though.

I'm so old, my first email address didn't have an @ symbol. Literally.

My niece, who due to finally getting a proper medical diagnosis that explained her weight gain, has lost 100 lbs and laments that too much of it has come from her boobs.

It's no Jon Voight's LeBaron, but it'll do.

A few years ago I decided to switch from regular to diet sodas. It's kind of just math. If you cut out 400+ calories a day, it's going to make a positive difference.

Really nice technique, keeping her toes pointed the whole time and I don't think a heel ever touched the ground. That last squeaking to a stop sounded like it might have hurt though.

I'm going to have to agree with kungfu2day in one respect. I can't help thinking if I'd got a tattoo in my 20s, I'd hate it today. It would have been some rock band logo or something, like Blue Oyster Cult's upside down question mark. I know that, because I put that logo on everything back then and thought it was…

Being from out here in Jesusland, I had to google Sea Org to see what the hell you were talking about. That's a much better look than the long hair, prairie dresses, and white bonnets we have around here.

Oh, how I hope this law also applies to private religious schools. I want some kid to be able to draw Baphomet in the corner of all his catholic school homework without repercussion.

I grew up with ham and government cheese sandwiches in my lunchbox. We had these great big, like 4x4x12" blocks of it that came in a brown cardboard wrapper as I recall.

I've ordered replacement inkjet cartridges for an old printer and received legitimate ones, but their expiration date was 3 years old. They had leaked in their wrappers and the ink was gooey. Now I ask about expiration dates and almost always hear back "they're expired but that shouldn't be a problem." Yeah, no.

Pretty accurate in my case. It shows home to work within a 20 minute drive at 5pm, which is dead on. I used Chrome's "inspect element" feature to bump up the time period beyond 10 minutes and it worked.

My mom begged me to go to camp, but I wasn't biting. I don't shit in the woods. What am I, a bear? Then she discovered computer camp at a local university and my 10 year old nerd self couldn't wait to go. Got an early taste of all you can eat college cafeteria cheeseburgers and dorm life.

RG being Republican Guard, like in Iraq? Presumably they're young. Why didn't they join in with the revolution?

From my point of view, looking in as an outsider, I don't see that "foot in mouth" having any positive consequences though. When Rouhani made his conciliatory tweet yesterday, or at least that's how I interpreted it, this young woman was still calling him a liar in with all the other hardliners.

Not gonna watch the video. With no kids under the age of 18, I'm unaware that I've ever heard the song, and it seems maybe I shouldn't make the effort to try.

From an Iranian friend who is in university here, the theocracy is greatly outnumbered, but is so corrupt that it's nearly impossible to unseat them. Young people like her are so disillusioned by the political system that when an election is held, they don't bother participating.
