This is dating myself but... when I was 10 years old my mother moved us from Philly to Westwood Ca. (a whole ‘nother story but it was actually a case of custodial interference.) Our neighbor in in the Melrose place looking complex was Barbara Barry. She played Gavin Mcleod’s wife on “The Mary Tyler Moore Show”. She…

I kinda have one better. Ex-Senator Joseph Lieberman was an absolute gentleman to me at Hartford Airport when my bag fell over right in front of him, and the entire flight crew seemed to love him. People even came up to him to shake his hand, and he was nice as hell.

I ended up taking the new job. Haven't started there yet, but I think it was the right choice.

Oh Josh Hartnett. I live in Minneapolis, and he is a NOTORIOUS stuck up dick. The story about him up there is so typical. He dumped his awesome high school sweetheart that he owned a house with for a fling with like, Scarlett Johannsen. He is a joke.

Yo, RE: the method man one, he’s Muslim, so yeah, “pork ass hands” are a problem. I don't eat pork and I certainly wouldn't eat a food that had touched pork.

That Kanye story. I’m literally crying with laughter.

This is a great article and, imho, the best advice is to do your research. I obsess over researching any significant purchase and almost always end up with a solid product that does what it says. When the product does what it is supposed to do and does it well, I forget about what I paid for it. If the product does…

They also do this thing where something will be on sale for 5 cents off.

I once witnessed an associate at a major national retailer switch the signage for a pair of jeans. The “sale” price was more than the price previously displayed.

Not sure what you mean. If you mean that the latter is right then consider that the latter does not understand that the dose makes the poison. Everything is harmful in large quantities but many things are harmless in small quantities. There’s mercury in your body. You are exposed to low levels of ionising radiation…

Great catch on grammar errors. There are definitely science errors, or at least murky explainations: Substances that mix oils with water are emulsifiers. Lotions, creamy cleansers, body washes are polymerized emulsions. So is latex paint, for that matter. I don’t think that emulsion was mentioned here, nor was the…

Ask if the doctor will accept a bottle (14 doses of 17g) bottle of Miralax and 15mg Dulcolax (generic name: bisacodyl) as the bowel prep. You can buy both over the counter and they taste somewhat less horrible.

Go-lightly is no joke....had to witness my poor husband with ibd deal with it before a colonoscopy. We’re definitely going to pay the extra bucks for the powder packet next time.

If you've ever had a colonoscopy and been giving a giant jug of gross, thick liquid to drink the day before (I think it’s called Go-lightly), you drank yourself a whole gallon of PEG. Bottoms up!

I agree. The author claims in her byline she is “fanatical” about personal growth and development. Relax, y’all. These Millennial Achievement Machines are to be endured in my book.

Amazing timing of this post. I have an offer that I haven’t responded to yet that I am trying to decide on. I told them to give me till the end of the week to give them an answer. Well it’s the end of the week and I still don’t know. I love and hate where I currently work, mostly because I have had no growth…

This is very appropriate for my life now. I took a job last year that ended up not being what I hoped or what was described to me. Despite my misery, the experience gave me an incredible insight into what kind of job I really want, and what kind of company I want to work for. I just accepted an offer that will end up…

I moved from Chicago to Hawaii and now I’m in Boston. I’ll be 50 this year and I make less than I did at 40. But I have been in ad sales, underwater videography and now textbook editing. Obvs. I don’t move around for the $$$. I make enough to stay out of debt and sock a bit away for retirement. I've owned and sold a…

Fantastic post, and this principle is true for much in life. Many decisions we make are not cast in stone. Very often it’s possible to make adjustments or changes in our lives.

My father accepted an enormous promotion in exchange for a literal suicide mission. It was nice having college paid for but I’d rather have my father back.
