One mistake a lot of guys make is putting it on just before insertion - meaning that you’re taking a break in whatever activity was turning you on, having to shift focus to thinking about the condom, and putting something cool (or at least room temperature) on, further changing the sensation.

Is the problem that he can get too far into the house before dumping things? Can you put a bowl by the front door for all his dumpables?

I agree. Pay attention to where things pile up, or what things don’t seem to have a home. At least corral them.

Cute, but the um.... crap.. that ends up on auto floor mats is hardly any less appealing.

Did you ever follow up on the idea of doing lobster, especially frozen lobster tails?

God, I feel old.

Interesting that all three of the options take for granted that people are posting their selfies online. Even the “autobiographers” are described as “They like that people can see their photos [...] It’s more like keeping a public photo album.”

The rule always was “I before E, except after C, or when sounded like A, as in neighbor and weigh.”

We grow our own basil and mint, so we’re big fans of Caprese salad - at the end of the season, I harvest the remaining basil and make basil olive oil (keeps in the freezer) so we have a double hit of basil in our salads along with the tomatoes and mozarella. I’ve been mixing in a hint of mint and that works nicely.

Details on the subscription, please.

Our local stores are advertising a Char-Broil combination gas and charcoal grill. You can cook with gas when you wish and with charcoal when you wish.

Probably, but I’d be happy to skip directly to replicators. And of course, people who enjoy cooking could still replicate raw ingredients.

I’ll also add that Erica’s part of the “tiny coincidences add up” thing was that, apparently, her ONLY PAIR of reading glasses got broken. We’re supposed to believe that that’s a serious as Douglas’s hangover, but there’s no sign of it, and no sign of her squinting at anything else. When push comes to shove, she seems…

One great way to improve the moistness and flavor of a chicken breast is to brine it. That’s true of fully thawed chicken breasts, but meat thaws faster in water than in air anyway, so dropping chicken breasts in brine speeds the thawing AND flavors and moistens the chicken at the same time. Adding some sugar as well…

I’ll add something to this. If you make an offhand remark in your immediate verbal thanks that you plan to do something in return for the consideration, do it. Don’t assume that the other person forgot.

It’s interesting, because my favorite color is cobalt blue, but only if it’s in a a transparent glass or plastic that the light comes through. Put it on a wall or use it as a flat or gloss opaque, and I don’t generally care for it.

I was never a big Seinfeld fan, but I have to admit to a curiosity about what soup could possibly taste so good that people would line up around the block and put up with staggering abuse from the Soup Nazi to get a serving of.

You need to look at how the airline defines boarding. Most of them consider people to be boarding until the airplane door is closed prior to takeoff, and the fact that a passenger had made it as far as his seat doesn’t change the fact that he was “in the process of boarding.” For normal conversation, sure, once he…

While I am not a coffee snob - a Navy career will wipe that right out of you - it’s my understanding that boiling water is too hot and brings out the bitterness in coffee. So possibly, letting the water cool just a tad first might help the flavor. Somewhere between 195 and 205 is supposedly ideal, while 212 crosses…

They said bury cotton. Not bury perfectly good underwear. Undies don’t last forever. Use the ones that have already died.
