That rug really tied the cubicle together.

As a confirmed introvert, a restaurant proposal would have been a horror for me. The first person I was engaged to, did it on a Thanksgiving dinner during dessert in front of all his family, my mother and my sister. My family had no idea, but his did and it was awkward as hell, and pushed me to make a decision that I…

He would have just pardoned himself, right? Because the President can totally pardon himself, right? Like, you could have the most corrupt president in history, and he could fill his cabinet with crooks and liars, and maintain secret business relationships with a hostile foreign power that may or may not have used…

My favorite comments are those that either mansplain beer to me or tell me I’m lying. Always a joy.

Want me to forward you Jeff’s email? 

Anyone have any tips on not yelling/screaming at a child from time to time? We have two children ages 5 and 2.5. We’ve never spanked but both my wife and I sometimes yell. I always hate myself afterwords, but sometimes when it feels like talking to a brick wall after asking your 5 year old to brush their teeth for the…

I handle/inherited the ID system for a small college. Yes we could tie everything back from the ID to prove this info but you are correct in your statement. Even online students out of state and country are entitled to one of our IDs which we mail to them. Not mention the day to day making of them is up to student…

This is exactly why I don’t own any nice dishes.

When your children are between six and 17 is when things fall off; researchers guess this is because of general family anxiety, which ratchets up when your children can talk and walk around and need to apply to college.

Note that Monopoly isn’t on this list. No one should play Monopoly. It’s a horribly broken game even when played right... and hardly anyone plays it right.

Now if we could just educate Republicans about these things.

Were you having dinner around 5:30PM?  Were there kids on your lawn at the time?

Ouch, this is rough. I hate the idea of him being able to force a text to my phone, but at the same time, if this were literally any other president, I’d be fully behind it. If FEMA and the office of the POTUS both think I should know something immediately, I’m willing to give them the benefit of the doubt.

Surely no coincidence?

No, you just got lucky. Some people smoke and drink until age 100...but smoking and drinking gets most people well before that. Statistically it is possible for you to do something unsafe for years and never get hurt from it.

Something missing from this analysis is Microsoft’s Office 365. As long as you don’t paying yearly, rather than monthly, and especially if you already need to use the desktop versions of any Office applications, it should be the clear winner in the ~$5 range. $60/year (equal to $5/mo) gets you one terabyte of OneDrive…
