I think the kiosks are a godsend. They’re not really laid out that intuitively, but I’m a somewhat picky eater, so this allows me to make sure I get the modifications I want without miscommunication. I swear cashiers think, “no mayo” means, “I want even more mayo.” I live in a pretty poor neighborhood, and most people…

It was a big news year. Halley’s comet, the Challenger explosion, the fall of Marcos in the Philippines, Iran Contra started heating up toward the end of the year, but perhaps most useful for Stranger Things considering how season 3 ended, the Chernobyl meltdown happened in April.

I was raised Catholic, and at least in New England the Church didn’t seem super concerned about “Satanism” although the Jesuit high school I attended did ban D&D as having “questionable” influence.

but it checks out. One of the only fads I was in on early was the Bart Simpson t-shirt, and as memory serves i had it in 7th grade, spring of 1990. Mrs. Sirois, my English teacher, said it was vulgar. 

Really scraping the bottom of the ideas barrel here. I vaguely remember CBS doing a sitcom spinoff of the movie in the early 90s with Sam McMurray in the Tom Hanks role, and the only actors from the movie in the series were Marla Hooch and Betty Spaghetti. They really pumped it up, and got Penny Marshall and Tom Hanks…

I don’t know if it’s a good thing or a bad thing that I’m voir dire poison every time I get chosen for jury duty because I make it explicitly clear that in ANY criminal case, I do not believe the NYPD. I’ve openly said that I will assume any testimony given by police is a lie unless corroborated by multiple civilians,…

Yeah, I saw the payout and did the quick math in my head and thought, even if he was only being paid minimum wage, with overtime laws he’s owed at least four times that. 

No, we like chowder, Dunkin’ Donuts and marriage equality, too.

1. Bostonians, not Bostonites, you illiterate prick.

I’m generally staunchly opposed to people who are famous for being famous and good-looking, but having seen a few interviews and TV cameos, and following her on twitter, Chrissy is delightful. 

1. I fail to see how this story paints me as “heroic” I told a drunk guy to stop pissing and an old guy to stop saying racist shit. In full honesty, had the train been full I’m sure I wouldn’t have said a thing.

So yes, you are just an asshole. Thanks for confirming, asshole. And that it took you three posts to get to your lame-ass corny joke. Do better.

Pretty sure Family Guy has a long cutaway gag about that scene.

So.... you’re just an asshole, right? If it makes you feel better, he did insult my favorite ratty old sweater, too. I did not have a good comeback for it.

nope. it was the last stop at 9:30-10pm, there were like 6 people left in that train car, including myself, the pisser, and pint-sized hitler

The old racists in NY are definitely getting more vocal.

If you take away my Newports I will fucking lose my shit.

I’m really starting to suspect we had identical childhoods. I LOVED Square One. Some of the math songs are still in my head to this day like the country western song about “nine nine nine. Fantastic number nine. Times any number you can see, it all comes back to nine.” The song about roman numerals, “I night...”

You are officially an angel. I can NOT wait to make this.
