“We can’t give everyone free college! Because then rich kids would get free college!—Pete Buttigieg, somewhere, probably.

I still get email from a car dealer who I bought a vehicle from eight years ago and from four states away (I moved about a year after the purchase). I unsubscribed repeatedly, emailed the dealership to tell them to stop then, finally, made a call to their location to let them know it was highly unlikely that I would…

I have a personal email address, an email address that I use for all of my financial accounts, an email address I use with shopping sites, and an email address I use for social media and posting comments.

Jethro Tull is one of the many ‘70s bands my dad and I bonded over. He actually played Wond’ring Aloud for my first dance at my wedding last month. It’s always nice to expose your nerdiness and get comments from fellow nerds.

This story reminds me how every day after filming the Bela Lugosi version of Dracula, a Mexican crew and cast took over the set and worked all night on the Spanish version - which in some ways has superior atmosphere.

No one is going to fight you. Jethro Tull is legendary.

On a classic Jeep Cherokee with the bulletproof 4.0 inline six, miles almost don’t matter. It’s a bit like the bean dip I’ve had in the back of my fridge since... *shrugs*...

Thanks everyone for the feedback on the change of poll tool. Based on the responses, we’ll be going back to the OG poll tomorrow.

The results wound up revealing strong corroboration of a rumor long circulated on my mother’s side of the family, but never previously substantiated; that my father’s birth mother was in fact one of his maternal aunts, and that he was likely conceived as the result of an affair she had with a much older man, and…

My mother’s been researching & documenting the family tree for the last few years, and she got all her aunts & uncles to spit in the tube & get tested. When she was going over the results in the database, she found that one of her uncles had a daughter that nobody knew about. This was a problem, because once it’s in…

Sure it is. The phrase “alto ahi!” is commonly used by cops for “stop right there!” But i do get how “ pare” or "deten el submarino cabron!” would be more correct.

So here’s my Perot story:

I just switched one of my monitors to a vertical orientation.  I did it initially to save desk space, I’d changed offices and the new desks were smaller.  But I LOVE it.  

The seller claims that it was always meticulously maintained, but he couldn’t fix the fucking starter?  STFU.  Crack pipe.

This doohickey sounds like a bunch of mumbo-jumbo malarkey. I’ll stick to my tried and tested fuel efficiency booster, Thank you very much!

I had to make that exact choice in 1975, when my parents gave me $3,500 to buy my first new car (and it had to be American, “not one of those imports”). I had essentially three choices, Vega, Pinto or Gremlin, and I went with Gremlin. I did that because it had the biggest base engine, a six cylinder, under the…

Pinto:

I always ask for one thing and I never get it.  For the past 14 years (and even divorced I don't get it). Just let me sleep in ... I naturally wake up by 8am is it really hard to give me that extra 120 (or if you're my youngest daughter until 8 that 180) minutes of extra time?

I’m down for Biollante, but let’s also allow Orga to totally traumatize the young-uns.
