It's discriminatory inasmuch as I do not buy mangoes because I think mangoes are gross. But it is not illegal discrimination. And banks SHOULD have the right, contrary to what the author is saying, to choose all the (legal) choices they want. And see how the market reacts.

Sure, of course, criticize away. That's what I meant by "People who don't like it can take their money elsewhere." But it's a business decision. Language like "banks shouldn't have the right to..." makes me think that this author thinks that it shouldn't be allowed.

This strikes me as being super similar to people throwing around "Free Speech!" when you're dealing with private organizations.

My favorite fact is that I showed up to the first day of swim camp the summer before high school with a white, heavy duty plastic swim cap, with applique flowers and a chin strap. Almost as cool as the picture, EXCEPT ALSO A CHIN STRAP. I had never swam on a team before and that was the only swim cap at Walgreens…

THANKS SO MUCH BYE!

That's actually fascinating, because just observing her social group (in this role as her basset hound), it's like 90% women. Like I don't know how to understand this better, but there are a LOT of women writing in a lot of detail m/m romance.

No ma'am.

Yeah, exactly, like I know that maybe part of me should think this is gossipy stuff (like how I submitted it here), but I literally think it's just like "Hmm...you are much cooler than me."

I remember having to sit my little brother down (he's 14 years younger than me, so he was about 10 or 11 and I was in my mid-20s) that he should really learn how to clear his search history because I was pretty sure that he, not my father or older brother, was responsible for about 30 google searches for "boobs"…

Yes, I do the same thing with America's Next Top Model. Except the editing and favoritism is so bad, you usually can figure out who is the favorite to win and each of the story arcs way at the beginning of each cycle.

A female coworker of mine, who is really sweet and kind (and even knowing this, I think she is the bee's knees), writes m/m erotica under a pseudonym that may or may not the name of her basset hound. So that's a thing.

Yes, exactly! I love reading memoirs where, you know, the very fact that it's a memoir pretty much is a huge spoiler if you know anything about the subject. But I want to hear the story about how you got to the ending - without that, the ending is really meaningless.

I don't really understand why, especially for GOOD shows and movies, learning about a spoiler ruins anything, really. I was "spoiled" about the last episode of Dexter a few seasons ago, and spent the whole season waiting for it to happen, and then when it didn't when I kept expecting it, I thought "Hmmm, maybe I…

My dickishness has nothing to do with not eating fruit, in that case.

Aww, did you miss your baby breakfast of 'nanas and apple slices? I'm perfectly happy without fruit.

What do you do to combat the stick up your ass?

I actually haven't ever seen a ranking like what you linked - I think I'm going to bump up the spices in my cooking! Had no idea they were so good for you! And, honestly, I totally agree with you about berries - they are lower in fructose and super duper good for you - I probably SHOULD include more of them in my…

In a game of so little skill, asking people to pronounce the words correctly isn't too much to ask.

I don't normally actually LOL when I type LOL. But I literally laughed out loud so hard just now. Thank you for that!

too bad so sad, chubby.
