I believe that by “no one will take that away”, they meant the process by which they keep themselves feeling healthy - I think that’s an important distinction. By classifying something as an addiction, some people will see it as having negative power and connotations when in fact it can have positive properties

I hate to say this, but my best advice would be lies and trickery. All I can think to do is make sure they never know/find out about the date. I realize that’s probably difficult (if you scratched off or blacked-out the dates, then you’d have no way of knowing the dates yourself, unless you wrote them down somewhere).

I was gonna say - yeah, apparently most Wasabi (sold in the US, at least) is just horseradish but given a green tint and punched-up with spices. Apparently, legit Wasabi is really expensive (again, at least in the US) - ever since I found this out, I’ve been wondering if I’ve ever actually tasted legit Wasabi. I did

Right. While I agree that impeachment is the Constitutional remedy for the numerous, demonstrable crimes committed by this president - and putting aside the arguments against elevating Mike Pence to the presidency - there’s still the very real concern that not only will impeachment proceedings almost certainly fail to

Maybe I’m just a dirty luddite, but reading this article gave me peak Incredulous. I couldn’t help but think of “The Clapper” and whether this is genuinely a better solution - I mean, that’s mostly sarcasm, I realize clapping to turn one’s lights on/off isn’t a full-proof solution to never having to get up and do it

I know, right? It’s like the “security vulnerabilities” freakout, all over again.

I know it’s a bit late for a reply but I wanted to say I appreciated your thoughtful response and also - yeah, that definitely tracks, the whole “people spend their money dumb all the time”. I’ve watched the Frontline specials haha. But when it comes to your kids and when it’s obvious the focus is on their making

Well now that's playing by anime rules, where logic dare not show its face.

You know, without watching the clip, I wasn’t so sure about their decision - I thought it would be too murky to determine that it was indeed collusion/cheating. But after reading through the comments, I realized I had to watch the clip to understand what others were seeing and boy, howdy. I was genuinely surprised by

Yes but in video game logic, The Special Counsel has more legitimacy because their title is cooler.

Your comment reminded me of this, so I had to go hunt it down for ya.

I feel like you almost touched on this as well when you mentioned the cost of those club fees, but when I read it I immediately thought: if parents took that $1,000-7,000+ per season figure you mentioned (season, I assume, meaning once a year) and instead put it toward their college fund, for just the four years of

I have to ask, when you say “quit smoking”, are you referring to people who’ve transitioned from cigarettes or those who’ve stopped smoking entirely - meaning they no longer vape at all. I ask because I’ve come across a lot of folks - people who’ve been vaping for years and various vape shops - who use the term

I have to ask (even though I know this is now considered ancient in Internet Time) - does it count if you drank Four Loko when it first came out, before everyone knew it was poison (you know, when you just kinda assumed it was poison because come on - it’s malt liquor + energy drink - but you were in college and

My dad - who has been my dad since I was one-year-old - is black. As a red-haired, blue-eyed, pale-to-the-point-of-danger-in-five-minutes-of-direct-sunlight, it says something about our relationship that I had no idea he wasn’t my biological father until 7-years-old - and even then, it took some kids mocking me about

I can’t play scary games - so I just watch my breau play them. In fact, he bought me The Walking Dead game by Telltale and I made him play it for me so I could watch because I was too scared. We got through Resident Evil 7 okay (I watched) - that game was amazing. Outlast was noped out of pretty quick. I was surprised

I think I remember an article from a few years ago (could’ve been longer), where an attorney got a lot of DUI cases thrown out because the cops weren’t regularly re-calibrating their breathalyzers as the manufacturer(s) intended. So it was VERY possible that the breathalyzers were giving mistaken readings on people

Agreed - this is eventually going to become just like cable (but hopefully without all the commercials - although that’s looking more and more possible as people balk at Netflix raising its prices AGAIN) where you have to subscribe to so many different streaming services just to watch the shows you like, ballooning in

I know, any time I see anything from Google talking about switching from Inbox to Gmail before they shut it down in March (like the ugly little nudges whenever I open Inbox in my browser), they make it sound like I’m the stupid one for wanting to stay with Inbox as long as I can and that Gmail is somehow better when
