I'm not sure why you're replying to a 3 year old comment. I have no idea what I was trying to say, but obviously a 12 pack was not $10 - that would be insane. Maybe it was 4 12 packs for $10.

I remember being proud of myself in 4th grade in our classroom spelling bee when I spelled "headache" correctly.

My friend had Google recruiters going after him. So he asked if I wanted him to pass my name along. I figured why not - but it was for one of their satellite offices, not California. There was a 10 minute chat with the recruiter and then I went in for an interview - but it's not usually like that.

I don't know it. I just remember "reading rainbow, reading rainbow"

I applied an interviewed - a white woman. But I straight up bombed that interview, soooo yeah.

My dad is an 8th grade teacher and he used to take our old Disney VHS tapes into school for days like that. You're never too old for Disney!

The issue is that when it became common, the laws changed so that it made up a certain part of server's income. Not a bonus. But it keeps getting worse and worse! Instead of 15% being the norm, it's now 20-25. When will it stop? Will I eventually be expected to pay 50% of my meal to the server?

It's funny. That's not really any different than the restaurants where you order and pay at the counter, then take your number to a table and someone brings you your food. But because you paid at the counter, and in advance, you don't really have to tip. I mean, what's the difference?

BUT I would never work in a restaurant for a flat hourly rate. Some nights I work my ass off, feeling like my feet will fall off, sometimes on the verge of tears.

I used to work at a supermarket in high school. Sometimes I dream about going back to 6 hours of standing at a cash register.

I think she wrote a bill that she knew had no chance of passing because it sounded really good in a one-sentence sound blip. Which is how I feel about a lot of the things she says. She makes a lot of noise, but it doesn't really do anything.

If she got the democratic nod, I would vote for her, just like I did for…

I'm not against raising the capital gains rate. It should be taxed as normal income.

They have an interest in providing affordable education. It doesn't have to be in the form of low-interest student loans, which only encourages Universities to increase their tuition because 18 year-olds can get a cheap loan.

I deleted my original comment because I didn't want to get into it, but I'll further explain. The way credit works is that you get a higher interest rate the riskier you are and the longer your loan is for. You can't default on your loans, no, they're with you until you die, so that's not a risk, but there is…

ETA: nevermind.

Etiquettewise, Black Tie is the only dress code you're allowed to state. But NOT Black-Tie Optional - you can't state that because it's not a thing. It's always an option to dress in black tie if you want. In any case, if you put Black Tie on your invitation you better have all the fixings of an actual black tie…

You can put one answer down for that questions. Should I write English-Swiss-Italian-Irish-German-American? My ancestors didn't come from one place. It doesn't matter on the census which of those I am if I don't identify with any of them.

I'm in New England and would probably answer American. I guess I could say English. My ancestors with my last name came over and founded a town in CT in the 1600s. But my dad's mother is from Switzerland, and other grandmother's parents are from Italy. So I'm probably more Swiss and Italian than English. I would…

My ancestors (and last name) came to Massachusetts from England in the 1600s, there's a town in Connecticut that they founded. My dad has a book that traces the family back to the 13th century in England (it's old so all the S's are Fs). I suppose I could call myself English because of that (and that's probably what a…

I have a coworker who is an Atheist Jew. He even keeps Kosher. He said it's quite common, and for a lot of people it's more about ethnic traditions than a beliefe in God.
