I’m so tired of my curly hair not being “nice” or “professional” enough. It’s so ridiculous that curly hair has some kind of weird value attached to it.

Have you seen the Penn and Teller’s Bullshit episode about cheerleading? It's fascinating and everyone should watch it right now. They discuss not only it's status as a sport, injuries (including interviewing a girl aho was paralyzed from cheerleading) and the bizzarre corporate conspiracy that owns everything from…

BE...OPPRESSIVE! B-E...OPPRESSIVE! B-E O-P-P R-E-S-S-I-V-E!

Reading the article, the guy is an asshole. He was willing to compromise for her only needing to have straight hair for 4 hours at each competition. That is a whole night of work for her and would ruin her hair. That isn’t a compromise, ass.

ELEVEN.

As a fellow curlyhead...

Your servers love you for this. This is the exact reason Christmas Day was always my favorite shift.

It reads like my... I mean someone's KFC fanfic.

Our family tradition at Christmas is to go out Christmas Eve for lunch at a greasy spoon, be polite to the server, and leave a $100 tip in cash. It’s kind of selfish, actually— we all get to feel super altruistic, and we race to get out before the server finds the cash and feels like they need to thank us.

I always figured if I won the lottery I would randomly tip servers a couple hundred bucks. I feel like people shit all over them and a reminder that all customers aren’t entitled jerks goes a long way. I'm glad Kevin Smith is a good guy; I always assumed he would be.

Let’s all make a promise that when/if we become famous, we will all be Kevin Smith Famous.

I’ve been listening to undisclosed and serial dynasty/truth and justice. If their evidence is to be believed-

This comment is some serious quality.

I would have thought Colonel Sanders would be a breast man.

Finger-lickin’good takes on a whole new meaning.

I’m so glad, for so many reasons, that social media was in like MySpace infancy when I was in high school.

This is only tangentially a food story, but it ends up in a Starbucks, so there you go.

Not directly related, but I always found interesting how Colonel Sanders (or “Uncle Kentucky” as he’s known in Japan) is viewed in Japan.

My favorite anecdote is how celebrating Hanshin Tigers Baseball fans threw a local Colonel Sanders prop into a river after winning the Japan Series title in 1985... prompting a…

I’ve worked in specialty (outdoors) retail and I’m always amazed by the number of people that request you just open/come in/stay late for their very special needs. They’ll come in or call and ask when the store is open on a weekend and then ask if someone can be there 2 hours early or late or whatever because they…

Even so, he again makes a big show of sniffing the cork ...
