Handing the kid a device and going back to sleep is my go-to. It’s gotten to the point where my son just wakes me up, asks for my phone so he can play a game, hops in next to me, and I go back to sleep while having terribly weird Sonic the hedgehog dreams because that’s all he plays and he insists he needs the sound…

You just have to get people to use them. My parents have a Pilot, and my father insisted on using the Honda GPS for a road trip recently. I begged him to plug in his phone, my phone, someone’s phone, to use Google Maps and he insisted the Honda GPS was fine.

Exactly, I flew them to Las Vegas for CES for under $200 one-way, including a checked bag. My flight was on time, my bag made it, the ride was smooth, and yea it was a tight fit but it’s not like the other airlines are luxurious.

Yup, that’s Spirit. You have to pay for literally any frills-pay to pick your seat, pay for every bag beyond your personal backpack, pay for soda...and the tray is the size of a paperback book. But then again, it’s also like $300 less than any other airline, and unlike some other budget airlines (like frontier) Spirit…

So basically Ryanair is like Spirit in the US? I’ve flown Spirit, and while it’s definitely BUDGET, you know it’s going to be a budget experience from the jump, and with proper planning of entertainment and timing the flight for naps it’s not awful.

As a child I caught some clip of Runaway on TV once-all I remember was a small robot shooting an exploding bullet at Tom Selleck.

Yup. Saw all three with my kiddo and Spider-verse was so good I seriously contemplated taking him AGAIN yesterday when we were a little stir crazy from the cold. 

Im guessing they have security camera footage that shows whether she was asked for an ID at all. If she had a fake, that’s tougher, but if there’s footage of her walking up to a bar, paying cash for a drink, and no ID being produced, that’s a slam dunk for the plaintiff. 

Technically no, but since one of the main roles of VP is to fill in as president if needed, there would probably be a lot of issues with it.

I legit just snorted coffee laughing.

I fucking love Heavens to Betsy, and this song is simply one of the greatest love songs of all time. 

I have often said my childhood ended the day I saw Carrie Brownstein shilling a credit card my dad has carried since 1983. 

I could be wrong but I believe even if you are union, if you are considered “essential” it is expected that you report to work. Also, this isn’t the union calling a strike, this is a shutdown, so it’s a little funkier. It could also be the unions have bonuses or extra days or some other benefit written into the…

If there’s health insurance, he’ll do it. Allegedly, that’s why he signed on to do Sharknado-health insurance for his fam. 

Can we also list that the Grapple is a nightmare fruit born from eldtritch nightmares?

Ha! We lived in a house where we usually came in the back door. The front door was where the doorbell was. Our dog was smart enough to know doorbell=visitor, but dumb enough that every. single. time. he ran to the back door, which gave us the opportunity to beat whoever rang the doorbell senseless for ignoring our…

Did she get it confused with melatonin and was trying to tell you how tired she was?

I’ve never been more grateful for my dailies. Yea, they’re slightly more expensive, but between VSP and my FSA plus B&L’s rewards program I somehow ended up making $200 when I bought a year’s supply.

This is an alleged story but given how dumb people can be I’ve always believe it:

Kings Hawaiian rolls are super addictive but they also go stale really fast if you’re not careful.
