I went to college in a small town that had NOTHING in it, so we always had to drive to a nearby town to dine out or have any kind of fun. The nearby town was also pretty small, so Olive Garden was pretty much the only "fancy" option. I used to get a wonderful dish that was garlic chicken with broccoli. They'd grate

Not really? Littlenecks are the second smallest type of clam, and they're the type most commonly used in steamers. It goes countneck, littleneck, topneck, cherrystone, and chowder clams.

I always love the comparisons between the way a meal is advertised and what actually gets presented to you. Here are the other ones.

You can mock their recommendations all you want, but they have a lot of saliant points spot-on. Servers do often bring out enough breadsticks to choke a stallion and I see they often go wasted as some servers do not even offer to bag them up for you to take home. The consistancy of the sticks themselves vary

OK, first off: you'd think "littleneck" would've been a clue. Clams are fairly accurately-named. Second...what was the sauce? Was it drawn butter? Please, please tell me it was drawn butter.

For that matter, "'Buy one entrée, take one home' and other recent promotions appear to be inconsistent with Italian culture." Okay?

This is generally what we used to do.

One restaurant where I worked (where we also didn't serve it), management actually told us to do that if someone really wanted cocktail sauce. People really have no freaking clue what actually goes into sauces. I had a guy get really mad at me because he found out our Caesar dressing had anchovies in it.

You should add actual chickpeas to see what happens!

The office does, yes, but oftentimes I am representing my agency outdoors in heat. I don't get to just wear knock-around clothes whenever that happens.

I think that mass punishment like this is kind of stupid, but as an adult who goes to work at a place where sometimes it is very warm, I have to make due without baring my shoulders or wearing short shorts. I don't think there's anything wrong with expecting kids to not bare too much skin at school; I mean the whole

It's never so hot that you can't cover your ass and stomach with a thin layer of cotton.

This mistake still happens all the time at a place I frequent near my home in downtown Toronto. I want to assume they're tourists from smaller towns? It's more often like 'kway-sa-dill-ahs' but like....it's 2014 and you decided to go out for Mexican/Tex-Mex food, surely you know what that is? Maybe that's snobbery,

Mayonnaise makes life worth living.

And see? Your friend has secured his/her place as a decent person. It's fine to be wrong, or not know something. Just don't be a dickwad about it.

this is one of the only articles that I take time to read everything including the comments. :)

No, this is a home for a penis.

You know there's actually a difference in acidity/tanginess and aging for different grades of cheddar, right?

God help me, but these stories make me feel so much better about myself.

OH MY GOD I AM SO SURPRISED BY THIS NEWS
