So sorry I missed this announcement, the hospital is packed and I’m working way too much! Robicelli, dammit I will miss all the phyllo wrapped sriracha turkey leg type hybrid recipes you shared for experimentation, or you ploughing through 40 different brands of fried cheese curds so the rest of us could pick your…

If I pause in conversation, only to have you jump in and finish my sentence with an assumption of the idea I wished to convey? I will feel manipulated. 

I just remembered how emotional I became watching The Elephant Man..

Reading the book I cried hard, the movie I mostly sniffled maybe because they played the comic aspect up so much and I had cried so much with the book, I dunno. We all have our tender spots.

There you go—part of the current heartbreak. The writers for this series do not concoct clever or saucy lines in the realm of humor. Even Che doesn’t tell jokes or seems remotely funny as a world famous comedy act—more of a motivational speaker or head of a rally, than a comedian.

Yes if you are going to make a version of yourself, make it obvious to everyone why someone finds you irresistible, rather than repugnant!

My Dog Skip—well any animal movie; I still cry thinking about Charlotte dying alone. But Toy Story films are especially good at wringing tears.

Completely believe you, and what a sad state of affairs... Imagine a celebration of the artistry and process rather than exit through the gift shop?

Or she is orchestrating everything post-partum, just as she seemed to do pre-natal? The fact that they have to photo opportunity every event like an evidence trail makes me think it is perhaps publicity based?

It could also be perceived as interrupting. You might not know my cadence. A short pause is a polite way to gather a thought, and I would prefer to finish it on my own without your “help”.  I may have misconstrued your intention but leverage sounds as if you are trying to get the upper hand as opposed to interactively…

An oldie but a goldie. Ate a lot of this stuff at gatherings over the years. A few shakes of Worcestershire sauce instead of MSG. But a really good suggestion for the upcoming game, thanks. 

The other side: I would hope if this is her goal, turning Miranda into Cynthia Nixon, she would have taken time to make her something Che would be attracted to as a human being? Is Nixon a selfish, one-note, shrill self-involved cartoon parody who disregards every “loved one” in her path on the road to meeting her…

Way way back in the day, in SF, seeing Louis CK (years before the fall) do that bit claiming to have mastered the code for ordering breakfast foods. His code for someone ordering scrambled eggs, bacon and orange juice:

Looking forward to this! Two witty, intelligent, well-spoken men together sharing experiences--this will be fun..

Sure! I got two on sale for 16 bucks from Amazon.

A couple of years ago I bought some cute little glass open orbs and a few Tillandsias with some assorted pebbles as decor to make gifts. The instruction sheet with the plants was two pages long! I copied it and gave it to friends and family with the gifts and got some blow-back for all the instructions from those…

They have cups that you can brew tea up to 3 times and others with a removable lid/filter so you can recycle the cups. We have one in our Nurses’ Lounge so I separate and recycle the used cups—I use a little tool, put it on top, press the side buttons, twist, lift and the filter and grounds come out and you are left…

I used to go for regular or choc malted milk powder, take a spoonful and drink a sip of milk. Still like malt powder in milk or milkshakes once in awhile. 

I have made Egg Bites both Sous Vide and Instant Pot for a nice work breakfast and they were equally smooth and delicious; though if I am in town and in a hurry I will go for SB ones as well, using my points. I don’t get that price point for either item since even with my smaller production ability and non bulk…

Of course you can blame him. Putting yourself in his place and coming to no conclusions is not a reason to excuse his behavior. Your lack of conviction may have nothing to do with what he experienced. He had a choice, you have a choice. You can say NO to her, she isn’t some goddess casting a spell. It speaks to his…
