#1 tip for not being judged by the barista

How much do I tip after my marriage proposal was denied.

Many congratulations on learning English. As a native speaker I can’t imagine how difficult it is to learn. It’s an incredibly stupid language. I’m currently trying to explain to my four year old why so many words have double, triple and in some cases quadruple meanings.

(and cats assume all surfaces belong to them)

Same. Best way to stop me from taking part in something is to involve other people. No thanks.

Or you could cut the old folks some slack. Don’t make the mistake of judging them based upon your generation’s mores. Take it as a compliment that they actually give a shit about you as a person.

Counterpoint to the advice. A restaurant will establish their personality and how they expect their staff to act. If a server were overly familiar with a patron in a super WASP-y, white tablecloth, jacket and tie place, I could see it being a problem. Dining at a place that is geared towards a younger clientele or a…

“Stoked”? “Killer”? “Crushed”? “Dude”? That isn’t millennial internet slang, that’s bro speak. Internet slang would be “isn’t that Negroni lit af, I can’t even” or whatever.

I was never an official manager, but I often led small project teams of half a dozen or so. One time around two of the team were unpleasant people; one was brash and the other never showered, at least as far as I could tell. We got a new project and in a flash of inspiration I assigned the two of them to work together…

It’s not even that much more expensive to go with a reputable brand, either. For example, an EVGA 450 BT will run you $30 on Amazon right now, versus about $20 for a Raidmax/Logisys/Apevia pile of crap.

I disagree on the 1984 vs Brave New World part. BNW is FAR more powerful because it’s harder to explain why it is a dystopian novel.  1984 is a heavy club with oppressive governments, but BNW shows a utopian future and, from our perspective, it’s awfully uncomfortable. Addressing that discomfort, and how we should…

not knowing all the words, i suspect.

I agree... a lot of people will say the sound bar is just simpler, and better for smaller spaces. My counterpoint is go 2.1; it’s simple and will still be better than a sound bar, and possibly cheaper. I’m simply not a surround junky, and love my 2.1 system for music and movies. Get a Chromecast Audio combined with a…

My normal advice would be: go to Craigslist. Type “Camry” (or Accord/Civic). Buy the newest one you can for $5000.

My trick, which I’ve used in virtually every FPS game since I was, like, 7, is to use ESDF instead of WASD. It frees up Q, A, Z, 1, and F1 for additional commands while still giving easy access to the modifier keys. You basically just get a free column’s worth of keybinds, which, in Fortnite, perfectly resolves into…

“Blink” for Doctor Who (NuWho, anyway) and “Hush” for Buffy. I’d pick “Apollo, Apollo” for 30 Rock, although there are plenty of other good candidates.

That’s...a very very good point. She should run from him first because he’s a horrible asshole and second because his mother is a zombie and that shit’s hereditary.

RELATED: Why can’t a person find goddamned bubble bath at the drugstore anymore? It is all bar soap and body wash unless you want something that smells like bubblegum from the kid’s aisle. Bubble bath is awesome and body wash is stupid and bathing has been ruined and you can all go fuck yourselves. SORRY! Sorry. I…

Millennial here (born 1983) and I hate body wash. This is mostly because it feels impossible to fully rinse off. You can pry my bar of soap from my cold, sudsy hand.
