When I read articles like this I just think okay, this is a made up problem. Nobody’s family is actually this stupid and awkward.

I’m beginning to think that maybe I just have a great family (even extended family) who knows how not to make things weird. They can have some extra hugs this year.

I guess overall I don’t have a problem with the move, I’m just frustrated that such a basic feature (and one of the few I actually use) got relegated to the paid tier. $5/mo is too much to pay for what I actually use of this app.

I use only a tiny fraction of Pushbullet’s capabilities, because I don’t really need most of the functionality they’ve got figured out. I’m not paying a subscription fee to be able to archive new emails via the pop-up notification and reply to unlimited text messages. That is absurd.

Why should the Japanese government regulate tattooing and issue licenses?

I disagree with this perspective, but I suppose it depends on what kind of diet you’re doing. I’ve been doing a keto diet for a little over 6 months now. Sure I’m not still losing weight at the rate I did when I started, but I’m not particularly fatigued by the extra work that goes into checking what food I can or…

I don’t know that I’d say that these schools are the problem when it comes to the student loan crisis. They are just taking advantage of the easy money they can soak in from government subsidized loan programs. All colleges do this. Subsidies rise, and tuition costs rise, and subsidies rise, and tuition costs rise,…

Why aren’t there more “ugly” female superheroes? There are plenty of average or ugly males in superhero comics, but there are few enough women that aren’t physically perfect that a pregnant female superhero is noteworthy for not being ogle-worthy anymore.

I love the look on the face of the guy on the right.

that looks like a swedish daniel craig knockoff

Do I still get to play the prologue stuff at this point? I hope so

aeropress is good, but for everyday stuff, i like the simplicity of a french press and the volume i can make

I should clarify my comment instead of just being a smartass. By volume, skim milk contains about 85% more lactose than heavy whipping cream does. Granted, for the volumes of dairy products people add to a cup of coffee, this is probably negligible compared to the amount of sugar people add to coffee anyway. The…

Apparently not.

Temperature is one of the tricker aspects of coffee brewing to control, simply because you’ve got to accurately measure it and then maintain it during brewing to get much usefulness out of the effort you’re putting in. Coarser ground coffee is an easier way to keep bitterness under control, or brewing for a shorter…

did they get the the ferrari from ferrari?

Poaching eggs in butter or bacon grease is my favorite way to cook them.

Why does “light tuna” help?

Not to mention that it’s not illegal to use a phone in a car, you just aren’t supposed to use it while driving. Most GPS programs use data to update maps, etc, too. So this would be a really stupid idea.

yes, everything I don’t like should be illegal and punished with overwhelming force

Is there a way to shut this feature off?
