It’s practically illegal to ask any pointed questions regarding disabilities, economic status, race, religion, national origin, marital status and child care, pregnancy, language skills, age, affiliations, addictions, transportation, and veteran status, because the presumption is that an employer would find any

It’s illegal in the US also, but so many people get away with it that they flaunt the law with impunity.

Context is EVERYTHING. I live in Fairfield County too, and let me assure others, even a new Audi is considered a common vehicle. What is considered a rarer luxury vehicle in most areas of the country is common here. My town just got a Masarati dealership, and they lend multiple vehicles to the town police for

Use the dismiss button on the trolls here. They’re aplenty and in danger of coming out of the greys if someone rage responds to them.

Bwahahahahaa

Not a cat, it’s totally Batman!

You must have legendary patience. I have to drive at night for the trip from Northern VT to Southern CT, because of the “ridiculous” traffic. (My MIL laughs at me, but the percentage of ridiculous drivers up here is nuts.) Since most of my life is here in the NE corridor, it’s not really something I can avoid. (The

The airports become efficient when you’re TSA Pre-Checked. I fly routinely between LaGuardia and O’Hare, which are known as the 5th and 6th circles of hell, respectively. However, with my Pre-check, it’s 7 minutes from curb to gate. I paid for the privilege of bypassing security theater, and with car service, I get

Wait, you only want to give the height away now that you’ve passed it along to the next generation?

What? How the fuck does one preclude the other? Christ, that’s ignorant!

The perception gap is so fucking real and goddamn depressing. We see it on a macro and micro level.

It’d be awesome, just to see Lewandowski shit himself in rage, not being able to revel in his Schadenfreude for more than 12 hours.

The problem there, is that too many still remain in the greys and people engage in tolls instead of dismissing them, so it stunts the conversation. Plus, I’ve noticed a slow down in articles this week, which I hope is only temporary and not indicative of it being shut down.

I certainly didn’t say hazing doesn’t occur, but the “circle the fat” is an unoriginal urban myth that just makes people roll their eyes rather than focus on the areas that really should be highlighted for scrutiny. As we both acknowledge, there’s so many differences between campuses and their cultures, saying there’s

Tell her they sang the damn song wrong.

Like the chapters where there are over a hundred women, and they need all the chairs just to keep things organized. Those get creepy. Those girls get like TSA agents, drunk on a small modicum of power they wield over a captive audience. There’s a lot of nuance about the Greek system that is lost in the popular

There’s a lot to criticize the Greek system for, without perpetuating urban legends like the “circle the fat” myths. Binge drinking, time demands, social pressures, financial obligations, etc... take your pick of real problems first.

Boom boom, represent. We’re in the minority here. Obviously with chapters being as unique as the campuses they are on, not everyone has the same experience as we have. Different strokes for different folks. (Holy crap, it’ll be 23 years this fall since my initiation!!) Oh, and my first reaction to the video was “we tot

I think maybe you may be reading too much into this. It doesn’t say if a portion or all of it will be donated. We don’t really get much of a say, either. It’s not like she’s running for political office and has some sort of reputation to uphold.
