Yeah, I mean, being a racist is pretty stupid, so I’m not clear what his problem is here.

Most of my summer jobs were awesome and way more fulfilling that my grown-up jobs, with one exception: the few days I spent working for a guy who had me entering sales leads into a database for some janky product he was selling. It was 8 hours a day of sitting at a computer with no breaks, and this guy’s “office”…

These are the best things! I’ve purchased them at Jewel (part of Albertson’s, for those not in the general vicinity of Chicago).

In what universe is “but Colonel Sanders did it!” a valid excuse?

I can’t remember my kinja login, so after reading this on my phone I had to dig my laptop out of my carry-on and spend 10 minutes connecting to the crappy wifi just to say: Thank you, Dennis Young, for this excellent piece of writing. As I do with the priceless Jalopnik AutoZone story, I will revisit this article in…

There’s plenty of oppression to go around, some are just more oppressed than others.

Oh my god, look at that baby’s face! As the mother of a now six-year-old, I can’t comprehend what the fuck is wrong with people. How in the WORLD do you justify putting handcuffs on a skinny little baby boy who couldn’t pose a threat to you or anyone else if he tried? “Safety reasons” my ass.

If someone does bring bourbon in a plastic jug, I recommend making bourbon slush with it:

Holy shit, “property rights?” HOLY SHIT.

Switch to crochet for your gift-giving. Seriously, it takes about 1/10th the time and effort!

Parenting is hard. Not, like, having a child, but actual Parenting (capital P): giving that young person the tools to survive and, hopefully, succeed in this world. I don’t know if I’ll ever feel that I’m getting the balance right, of giving my son the confidence he needs to believe in himself while still making sure…

Yes. Yes, to all of this! I’m going to take the recommendation of many of the commenters here and give Zyrtec a try (since Claritin and Allegra do nothing for me). Benadryl works, but my office frowns on me passing out at my desk. Killjoys. May we all breathe again soon!

M’Baku (or, as my five-yr-old called him, “Mr. Woof”) was SO GOOD. More roles for Winston Duke, please!

Make this show, run it every day, and I will watch it nonstop.

I’m sorry you’re dealing with that nonsense. I’ve been there in my previous job as well as my current one, and my only advice is to do your job to the best of your ability, and don’t worry about making people happy.

Read this headline as: 

Pretty sure this was designed to make it easier for dogs of all ages to hop up in the bed.

Thanks for telling the story of a great organization (and hopefully bringing out some more folks tonight).

This is fantastic. More power to people who find ways for kids to love going to school!

This sounds amazing. I haven’t been on a bike since I was a kid and I loved it, but since my Honda-riding uncle passed away decades ago, I’ve never known how to possibly try it again. Any points of entry seemed to be either too expensive or too intimidating. I live in Chicago and think I might check The Bleeders out.…
