I love this. Further, can we get a chrome extension like the one that replaces photos of 45 with kittens, except it replaces Kardashians and Giseles with Botticellis?

Sometimes I look at my FUPA and think it’s actually quite sexy: it provides additional curves (curves are an area I need all the help I can get in) and it makes me feel like a beautiful womanly Botticelli painting.
There is room for all but I am very suspicious of the Pam, because I can always taste Pam.
I’ll be shunned for sure, but I use a 20-year old air popper from Black and Decker. When the popping is done (side benefit, it is almost impossible to burn in this popper) I spray with Pam, sprinkle with the topping of my choice, cover, shake and repeat for good coverage. It’s the best popcorn I’ve ever had (inclusive…
Good call, trying for a girl might be a likely explanation too. I really can’t imagine how you would effectively parent 14 kids, unless you pull a Duggar and make the older kids work in drudgery raising the younger ones until they get married and leave.
I can’t even wrap my head around why people want to have one child. And I have two of them!
That and/or they wanted to “keep trying for a girl”, despite the overwhelming numbers in foster care...
I know the answer is likely religion, but I can’t quite wrap my head around why people would want to have 14 children. My family had four and it was a mess of scheduling, meal planning, laundry, etc. This would be my nightmare.
Show me the lie, tho.
Honestly? Getting married. Not because of the tax break, but because combining our finances helped both of us curb reckless spending. Even though we don’t ask permission, we talk to each other about purchases before we make them, and it’s hard to avoid how silly some purchases are when you have to justify them out…
The blue "adoquines" cobblestones in Old San Juan, Puerto Rico, were origianally ballast stones on Spanish merchant ships in the 1700, and cast from iron furnace slag. The ships would just dump them on the beach after loading up with cargo.
Reinforcing stars (other shapes are out there as well) to help stabilize older buildings. They often use cables or rods that run the entire length of the building.
Clean the crap off your shoes before entering my house. We have tons of these in Philly. They are so decorative that I have had to explain to at least a hundred people what they were meant for.
Being your boss's go-to person is great if you're handsomely rewarded for it (to a commensurate level), but just being the person everything unwanted or impossible gets dumped on with no extra rewards sucks.
I think you hit on something core here that I wanted to emphasize with this post. I see this happening every day: people in the workplace who eventually lose credibility with their managers because they're unable to manage their workload and they expect their employer to do it for them...and employers and managers who…
I've seen people lose their job because they took on too many projects without being honest with their boss about how overwhelmed they were. In most cases I believe that Bosses would rather you be honest up front, and avoid missing deadlines. If you have too much on your plate you may come up short on multiple…
If what you do is important to the company then only having one of you is a risk. Get your boss to include this in whatever risk assessment & mitigation process they use and it might get you either a) more time to document original project/proposal in a better way or b) more resource.
One way around that would be to create detailed how-to instructions when making a new tool to allow people following you to use it. In my experience, that also shows to your higher-ups that you are able to train others, which is a higher-level skill. And in general, it allows you to work smarter, not harder :)
