The more I hear about E. coli at Chipotle the hungrier I get! This has not deterred me at all.

There’s actually a third kind of person: the one who wants to work through lunch because that means they have a four-day work week and are off every Friday.

Yeah, and if I DO take my lunch break and choose to spend that half-hour with a book in my face, that means leave me the fuck alone, I am reading.

The weirdest thing is that I’ve been in professional workplaces (mostly academic) that were extremely flexible about time, with NO pressure to either skip lunch or eat at the desk, and have encountered a lot of people who do those things anyway. Most of them were in the Northeast. Since I’ve been living in other parts…

I never took a lunch break. Fewer breaks meant finishing my work earlier, leaving earlier, and getting home in time to make dinner for my kids.

Id prefer to skip my lunch and be at work 8 hours versus 8.5 or 9 hours. Certain customer contact positions in my company only allowed you to skip your lunch to work over time to meet forcasting. Someone got upset about this and filed a class action lawsuit. So now I have to take at minimum a 30 minute unpaid lunch…

Came to comments to say this. Third type: those of us who work straight through so we can get home at a reasonable hour and see the kids before bedtime.

Right! That’s what I did too - left “early” (a whole half hour earlier) and munched in the middle of the day. I didn’t like taking lunch anyway because I would felt slower after - probably metabolic.

Back when I was working at a place that let me do it, I used to work through lunch and eat on the job because it meant I could go home half an hour early.

Gonna pass on that. I’m a contractor. My day’s done when I put in my 8 hours. The hour in the morning that I sleep late has way more value than the hour I could spend looking at my phone at Arby’s. I’ll consider reconsidering when it’s not the middle of winter and being outside is anything other than a trial.

This only works if the fighter has all the necessary ingredients such as charisma, marketability and the skill set to win, which is why mcgregor can pull it off. Chael Sonnen tried the riffing and the promos and talked his way into a bunch of title fights, but never could get the strap even when using TRT. You have…

Listen, the very notion that they’re genuinely “doing” anything is flattering to them. If they were serious about some sort of insurrection against government, they could—would—have picked virtually any other building in North America to start it. They don’t want a fight. They want to get interviewed on Fox News.

The world would be quite different if 20 minutes watching Youtube could actually change your life.

You just said he played zero games in the Polo Grounds. You also said that he didn’t play in any ballparks with 275’ right field fences. You keep coming back with non sequiturs in response to me pointing out that you keep making factually false statements. I don’t care what you think. You clearly don’t care much about…

I’m not the one who claimed that there were no ballparks with 275’ fences in Babe Ruth’s era, and cited the Polo Grounds as ann example. And yes, Babe Ruth did play in the Polo Grounds, you half wit.

Drunk burritos at 4 AM were great. It is all a young man’s game.

I’ve had the toquitos and the pizza. It’s about what you’d expect but it certainly didn’t make me barf or shit abnormally the way others are suggesting.

I just came a little bit.

Any chance we could acknowledge that the NFL is somewhere on the fakery spectrum between WWE and Battlebots, and just enjoy it on its own terms as an entertainment product?

Or do we have to keep pretending it’s about sportsmanship and fair play or whatever?

You're all set. Don't make me regret this use of my power.
