Are you from the northeast? The South and west historically started sooner and ended sooner, because of heat in un-air conditioned schools. I grew up in PA and it was sometime during my education (I wanna say late 90s) that school went from after Labor Day to the week before. My sons school starts 8/25.

But if they weren’t using their birth names, one could say that they had to change them.

His stage name wasn’t Eddie Creative Commons...

Lamborghini: Car of the Chad.

Considering they stole federal funds during a pandemic, funds that could’ve gone to other business or been used for unemployment benefits, I honestly believe that they should serve life in prison.

LOVE THESE!

Concur. Additionally, stockings worn with slides make me cringe. How you gonna walk in those, girl? You got your feet glued to the bottom? You just gonna shuffle everywhere and scuff down the soles so bad you can only wear them once? First time you try to walk with a normal stride, or walk down a flight of steps,…

You missed out on calling this edition “Savage Toebody."

DID YOU KNOW: Painting your nails causes cis men’s dicks to fall straight off? Just straight off? Where once a penis stood, now is only a shade of polish called Oh My Peach.

You liked The Accountant. You loved The Tax Collector. Coming next Summer: The Comptroller.

My read on letter #2 is that the LW is putting way too much pressure on herself to be “normal” again, and that pressure is probably helping squash her libido. The urge to return to normal after an unpleasant event is perfectly understandable. For many people, that return suggests that the problem is fixed, that you’re…

I feel like the Hazmat end-of-the-world vibe is also very now.

I must own them, I have no choice. 

I have high arches and I swear to God, walking in ballet flats or most flip flops feels weird. I feel like I’m working harder to walk than I do even in high heels. 

There was a style of Dansko shoes (not clogs, but more rugged slip-ons) that I really liked, but I was completely between sizes. One size squished my toes, the next size fell off my foot. I don’t know why there would be such a dramatic difference between the two. Oh well.

Sounds like someone needs to go take Econ 101. It impacts you in LOTS of ways. Every $1 spent on consumer spending boosts the economy an extra roughly $1.80-$1.90. Every $1 invested? Boosts the economy an extra $1, give or take a few pennies. The US economy is a consumer driven economy - if people don’t buy things,…

The aggressively conservative bent in this thread reminds me of an old episode of Star Trek (that’s right, I’m going nerdy with this one) where a character says something along the lines of: ‘Ferengi don’t try to end exploitation of workers, they try to join the ruling class so that one day they can exploit others.’…

Nationalized health care can’t be fixed by one person.  It’s utterly deluded to think otherwise.  Rich people should be taxed more to pay for that.  Period.  Hard stop.
