I have to use Chrome for Kinja lately.

I don’t even like a lot of cocktails because they are too sweet.  A mocktail sounds horrible.

Eh.  If you are with people who are drinking alcohol, drinking water is fine.  I would even point out that I have been to a few bars that give free soft drinks to designated drivers.  What a lot of bars here do is just have a water cooler or something similar with a stack of plastic cups.  You get your own water so…

I am honestly surprised that more restaurants don’t fail inspections.  Fast food workers typically operate under an abusive system with overworked managers who are too scared to lose their jobs to go find other work.

Drink water or soft drinks.  You don’t need a $15 cocktail.  If there isn’t a cheap beer option, just don’t drink alcohol.  Hang out and talk.  It’s fine.  Grownups don’t care if other people don’t drink, and a lot of bars will even give free soft drinks if you are with people who are drinking.

There are only two ways to get rid of a gallon of ranch dressing--take it to a toxic waste dump or a midwestern church function.

Good to see that Republicans are sticking to their ideas of small government and liaise fair business.

Jason Biggs is boring and overrated.  But Maggie Lawson might be enough to get me to watch an episode of Outmatched.  I wonder if they can get any of the rest of the Psych cast to make cameos.

I don’t understand how something is not worth the wait, but fine.  Those are contradictory things.

I was kind of with the LW until they got to all the what ifs. Every time someone starts coming up with hypothetical reasons why something might not work for them, I roll my eyes.  And stop using the possibility of an allergy that doesn’t exist as justification for you being spoiled.

The manager did approve it, but they didn’t normally work at that restaurant and made a mistake.

Was the far cheaper bottle just a different vintage or something that the customer wouldn’t notice? I have never ordered a bottle of wine and not been presented with the bottle.

For me it is easier.  I usually have some combination of purse, workout bag, and lunch bag with me when I get out of the car.  Plus, when I get home, the dog wants the love as soon as I walk through the door.  Consolidating garbage so I don’t have more stuff in my hands is good.

I don’t know.  It was weird.  Brand new car, and it was important to her to have leather seats.  Leather seats for her to just dump all the garbage on.

I have never heard that, but when I interviewed at a place recently, I did check out the bathrooms because I have noticed that companies that aren’t doing well have unacceptable bathrooms.

It is even easier to put a small garbage bag in the car and toss everything at once when it is full.

I used to carpool with a woman who had a horrendously messy car.  When she got a new car, I thought I would at least get a couple weeks of relative cleanness.  Nope.  She transferred EVERYTHING from the old car to the new one.  When she picked me up the first day, she had to move a pile of garbage from the front seat.

No.  This was a local place.

I can’t remember the last time I saw 7-up.

I used to work at 50s style diner that made great milkshakes from hard ice cream. We would always make just a little bit more than would pour into the glass, and the customers loved it. They felt like they were getting a big treat to when they poured the last bit from the shake cup into their glasses and would bring…
