Foot Locker!

I watched Paul Blart: Mall Cop 2 last week specifically to listen to the Death Blart podcast, and I’m glad I’m did since listening to the podcast without it would be a bit bewildering. Haven’t checked out the first movie and won’t in the future, but it’s definitely worth spending the 90 minutes to watch the second

Or drink whatever you want that’s healthy and you find tasty. So for some, that’s water. For others, it’s La Croix. Yes, some people find it tastes like a fart of a fruit in liquid form, but you know what? They don’t need to have it! Turns out no one is forcing people to drink La Croix. And yet Every. Single. Time.

It doesn’t last long enough, so there’s more of a constant applying during a session. It gets the job done, but other lube gets the job done better haha

No, haha. Just an annoying grammar person, especially about apostrophe rules. It was a bit serendipitous that I saw yours and this one within five minutes or so of each other.

As someone who plans on just hanging out with friends and seeing a movie on Thanksgiving as has been my ritual for the last 5 years, I’m-a drink tonight (or probably just smoke and get high which is fewer calories anyway).

Fester is also trying to be changed by the Joan Cusack character to become more mainstream and palatable. It’s absolutely a response to changing your own values to match those of the (then) conservative majority.

Looks like Pusha T won when it came to shoving.

Funnily enough, I used a similar pun in a short story I wrote:

(for instance, see the spate of derivative prose and poetry after Goethe’s Werther original or, more contemporaneously, if the surreptitious snooping of my daughter’s internet history is any indication, fan fiction based on fan fiction based on young adult

Yeah, this is probably the way I’d choose to do it. 

I’m glad that you brought up the Sorrows of Young Werther. It’s a great book (and short and rather readable depending on the translation), and its rash of imitative suicides is helpful evidence to the idea that nothing is new and the importance of knowing history. 

I go with the style that breeds less confusion, which is the apostrophe-less one. No one will be confusing CDs for anything other than plural while CD’s could be possessive or a contraction or a plural.

I can see why it looks weird (partly because of their relative rarity), but it’s far less confusing to just stick to the plain s. ‘s already means that the word is either possessive or possibly a contraction with “is”. Overloading a piece of punctuation even more increases the cognitive load your reader would have in

This is one case where a hologram would actually be fitting, a nice bookend to Leia’s initial one in A New Hope.

Also, just as a grammatical aside, CGI’ing? That’s a new use of an apostrophe I’ve seen. Is it any better than CGIing? Both look awkward as hell and thus probably hints that the sentence should have been

I would have gone for a porter. Has more of a smokey taste. (Plus I like dark beers a lot more.)

Hot Take: Apostrophes should never be used for plurals. It’s IPAs, not IPA’s. It’s the ‘90s, not the ‘90's. It’s cats, not cat’s.

The Takeout has some of the weirdest, most contrarian comments I’ve seen lately. Every recipe is disgusting (without having tasted it), everyone is a food snob (without saying they are), shitting on foods in the article text is horrible but if you AREN’T shitting on the right foods in the articles then that’s bad.

How Dan forgot to bring up using pot, I have no idea.

This is v good advice. Anal sex doesn’t work if you’re stressed out, and based on her letter, it seems that she’s been trying and those previous tries have been horrible so now she’s stuck in her head remembering the bad times and just stressing out more and more and consequently clenching more and more. Removing as

I only really want to know if a movie is a D- or an F, because then I know that I just have to read the review.
