This is not exactly the feedback you asked for, but if you were a close personal friend of mine and told me something like this, I would probably be texting you every night asking if you made an appointment with your doctor until the answer was yes. That said, I do have a friend who has experienced a never-ending…

The joke’s on DOT - didn’t Grande have to give like 99% of the revenue from the song to the Rodgers & Hammerstein estate just to sample “My Favorite Things” without getting sued? 

Sounds like my brother-in-law, he has five kids. I did not even know about two of them until recently and they are not even his youngest. He claims to have looked into getting a vasectomy but got mad when he found out his insurance wouldn’t cover the entire cost.

Ask him if he would spend $1000 as a one time charge or would rather spend $3600 per year for 16 years. Don’t give him any context. Say “would you rather do x or y”. Then tell him without a vasectomy that is what he is signing up for.

Hey internet strangers. I mostly lurk here, but I need to tell the void my dad died on Wednesday because of the flu. He typed an email to a friend at 4:30 on Tuesday that he wasn’t feeling good and he was gone at 5:30 am Wednesday.

I've never figured out how to get a good handle on the obsessive food thoughts, so let us know!

Twinning?

I saw a tweet(I think?) that Neil Peart is chuckling somewhere at all the bands with gigs this weekend who are frantically trying to figure out an “easy” Rush song to cover.

Okay. There’s a winter storm out there in MKE right now, so I’m not doing anything else until the Brussels sprouts are done roasting. Here goes:

Reyla, the cat I was boo-hooing about last SNS, died the next day in her sleep.

New year, same old me! I made five cheese lasagna (if you count smoked mozzarella as different from regular mozzarella, if not it’s four cheeses) I made the noodles, I made the sauce, with frozen tomatoes from our garden this summer, it was a labor of love. It was so good. We’re lucky enough to have a local producer…

I did this on another thread but want to do it here— RIP Neil Peart. I loved Rush in my teens and the got me through some rough shit in the way that music only can do when you’re that young.  Neil Peart wrote songs that geeky, isolated kids could listen to and feel less alone (and the monumental musicianship didn’t…

Hi Jezzies

I’m long-waisted, so I like a slightly low-rise jean. High-waisted jeans don’t come up to my natural waistline, so it creates a VERY strange look in addition to being wildly uncomfortable.

I’m also confused because, what kind of packaging do those toppings come in? Surely some kind of plastic and then they just dump them in glass containers, right?

You’re not alone. I’ve got issues with high-waisted jeans, too. When people argue that high-waisted jeans make their legs look long, all I can think is that it makes them look like they have a long crotch, not longer legs. Or it looks like they’ve hiked their pants up to their armpits, old-man style.

i guarantee a huge majority of food that would be otherwise wasted goes home with the staff. whether the kardashians know about it or not.

That’s a good point about the staff - I still don’t assume the staff eats the huge quantities of sweets that seem to be hanging around (mostly for pictures). I know there HAS to be food waste (just like any family has waste!)....I just wonder how much.

I have always been wildly curious about how much food waste the Kardashians have.  Whenever I see the glass jars meticulously filled with cookies, elaborate dinners which are prepared for the family, or the MULTIPLE refrigerators filled with MULTIPLE (literally, like at least five cartons of each?!) cartons of milk. …

Well, my rotten family managed to “forget” my birthday (happening since I was a little girl and birthdays really mattered) and later, ruined it with a smear campaign and some solid gaslighting. My mother somehow is the victim in all of this drama that she deliberately caused. Nice. A veritable hat trick of callously…
