In my house it’s not just the quantity of things she uses, but which things she uses. The largest bowls and cutting boards and she refuses to use regular cups. Everything is in a water bottle or travel mug, even around the house. Also, she has a habit of using the things that can’t be put in the dishwasher.

Fact.

I wonder how many rich people do short term rentals in the Hamptons?

OR, everyone’s getting 1x after a revised letter is sent to wsj people stating that 1.5x was an error made by some assistant who’s now getting canned.

My struggle is that I’m in higher ed where faculty, even senior faculty who hold executive positions dress down, development officers overdress, and most of the staff like me try to strike a balance between the two. I’d look out of place with a tie, but not necessarily in the next job of my career. Then we have…

I’m usually anti kitchen appliance, but ours has lasted us many many years and the plates that they use in this hold up to a lot of abuse!

Agreed, and on a similar yet related note, it’s never rude to negotiate or at least ask for a realistic timeline. I get requests from senior/exec people and a greener employee might drop what they are doing to work on the executive’s project right away. Instead, I evaluate how long it will take. If it takes less than…

I would tell my younger self to slow down and pace myself. In middle school I spent a lot of time breaking rules, hanging out with older kids, and way too much time on girls.

Just today my Tablo 4 arrived in the mail. Now I see this. I think I’ll stick with the Tablo as it provides the whole home DVR function and ability to play on any internet enabled device on your network. I was also able to put the Tablo directly next to the hidden antenna and keep the run short with an amplifier.…

I normally stay out of Jez comments as I’m the wrong demographic, but you hit the nail on the head. Any person who remembers seeing the original art or who just re-watched it would see that Fiona wasn’t acting. She was able to channel something real, or fooled us into thinking she was. This video falls somewhere…

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. With modern technology we should just build permanent structures that are the best in the world for each sport, all around the world. When the olympics happen then they are truly a worldwide event. LA get’s beach volleyball, skiing in the Alps, speed skating in the…

It’s a mental issue for most AA people. Similar reasons why they might not take communion wine at church. It’s not the actual amount. For the record, it’s just a half beer per batch.

I just keep the fake stuff around for cooking with. When bringing beer cheese dip into a place like work or pot luck I can advertise it as NA and then the AA people don’t have to out themselves by being the only ones to not eat it. It’s just a courtesy really to others. Also, you never know when one of your guests…

I was looking somewhere else, I now have a project to start I guess.

At first I was excited because I have a true story that I think could be amazing, but I’m no author and this doesn’t have ghost writers. For me it would be just the one book and one story. I really don’t have time to be a professional at it or try to make any money at it.

That’s why some states have “consent” laws. It all varies, but it’s meant to protect the 18/16 yo couple who are both in high school. It’s really not that hard to avoid underagers. They have drivers ed and track practice to go to.

It certainly covered a lot of ground!

Obligatory, and my favorite scene from one of my favorite shows. God I love CJ.....

Wonderful, I kept losing my fitbit one and upgraded to a charge HR. We recently packed the house to move and found the one about two months after losing it. Now I have somewhere I can send it!

Exactly. My 6S asked me if I wanted to unlock my phone when on my home’s wifi. My home is the least secure place my phone can be. When I’m out it’s in my pocket or in my hand. At home it’s constantly under attack.
