I know this won't come out of the greys, but the same could be said about anything everywhere, and we're all fucking hypocrites all the time. This very site features the runway shows of fashion houses; some of whom are egregious exploiters of underage girls, cheap overseas labor and couldn't give two shits about the

Yes and no. I live here. A few items:
The food is good
Public transit sucks
The MTA really gets off on ticketing and towing cars
Golden Gate Park is pretty much the best
Landlords are greedy
Non-tech employers are stingy with salaries
It's like anywhere — you take the good with the bad until you can't anymore and go

NOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!

Yes, please Crossfit/Paleo devotees. I can't believe you also don't find it weird that your gluten insensitivity sprang up after you started shelling out $200/month to do pulls ups and deadlifts and take pictures of it everyday. You want to be low carb? FINE. It's not a disease. Stop making people feel like it is.

In defense of ordering pasta in restaurants: Sure, I can boil water and throw some Prego on noodles at home. But rarely do I make fresh pappardalle with wild boar ragu. That's definitely a meal worth paying for.

Jennifer Aniston has been pregnant for like, 3 years now, right?

Agreed! Seth Meyers is more of a behind the scenes guy who thinks he's not. I don't get the sense that he genuinely gets a kick out of standing in front of a crowd and making them laugh. It seems he would really much rather write and conceptualize and then let someone else get up there and make it a hit. He's probably

I don't think it's bullshit. All kinds of crazy, disgusting shit happens to cheapest fruit before it ends up in your glass and it ain't pretty. But keep on drinking it America, by all means. More of the good stuff for me and my friends, I guess.

I work in the wine business. I'm glad this guy got caught. I don't make a living selling rare, first growth Bordeaux, but it's hard to get the general public to try anything that costs more the $5.00/bottle. Just because a bunch of rich assholes got duped does not mean there isn't a meaningful difference between 2

Edited to say, just now scrolled to see those posts. Yowza indeed.

...and very high on his own supply

That was my situation more than anything else...when I was waiting tables, I would assess where I was on the death spectrum and would still haul my nasty, strep throat ridden ass into work. Usually my managers would notice and sent me home. But missing out on $100 was - and still is - a big deal for my personal

Yeah, I'm not down with this whole "she has a mental illness/is irreparably damaged/haz issues so let's hug her" coddling that is going on here. She's an obsessive asshole who spends way too much time on the Internet. Is that a problem? Yes. Does it excuse her behavior? No.

Consumer Reports and whoever they talked to are wrong. In N Out Burger is, and always will be the best fast food burger. #animalstyleforlife

Oh I know. I was listening to my local NPR station here in SF about a year ago and they were talking about best financial moves in this "new" economy. One of the panelists' closing comments was, "real estate prices are going to dip soon, so buy a house!" It's no secret that in the Bay Area housing prices have never

Love this! Other pro-tips:
Don't ever take a vacation. When your company tells you to use your accumulated vacation days or lose them, spend those 4,5,6 weeks working the 10pm - 6am shift at IHOP. Double dip, yo! Take the tips you made and put them into a CD. Duh.

If you're forced to go out to eat with friends, only

Great point — this seems to assume everyone starts out with a livable salary where you're not choosing between health insurance or groceries. Lots of people in this economy, when they get a raise, have to dig themselves out of a hole before they can worry about retirement and savings.

THANK YOU. This decision sucks and the potential implications are scary. What also sucks is the hyperbolic handwringing that Hobby Lobby's health insurance policy does not cover birth control at all. It's simply not the case, and getting worked up and going down a dystopian rabbit hole in the comments is not helpful
