Maybe not scientifically accurate, but basically so allergic that exposure guarantees a reaction. Sometimes you can be mildly allergic, but if you know that you have a high likelihood of a major reaction that can become anaphylaxis then for the purposes of avoidance you treat it as 100% allergic...not the kind of…

My kiddo has severe tree nut and sesame allergies and tested out of peanuts, almonds, and hazelnuts, so I have some real-world experience here even though I’m not a doctor.

I have some sort of very specific face blindness where all the hemsworths look the same to me. I sat through all of that Rebel Wilson romance satire with Liam and spent the whole time thinking Thor looked weird. 

Right? I miss the ham, egg and cheese sandwich, I don’t necessarily want bacon or sausage in the morning and the ham was the perfect size and taste. 

I like the shopping cart theory, but I look at it far less black and white than just “did you put the cart away”.

This is the hill my mother will die on. When we watched the movie she just kept chanting “GO GET YOUR GIRL RILEY” and was so mad it didn’t work out that way. 

My mother swears by sunscreen as an effective deterrent. Bonus, her pumpkins never burn. 

Also a lot of parks have super strict rules about pulling your phone out while on the ride. Like, you’re off the ride and possibly kicked out if they catch you, because they don’t want the liability of loose objects getting flung off into the face of the people behind you.

It should be clearer that it’s for the Pacific Northwest only then...the only one of those that I have in my area of NJ is 7-11, and that’s the place of last resort for me.

Pepsi is eyeing this as their chance to snake the royal warrant away from Coke. 

Thirdhand story but my friend from college claimed her boyfriend’s father was hit on by Martha Stewart repeatedly, so this tracks. 

It’s worth noting that the Brandeis African American Studies program has some pretty cool origins. The students took over Ford Hall for several days until the university created an African American Studies program.

I was just saying yesterday that I find deadlifts to be easier when they’re heavier. Not like 1 rep max heavy, but I feel more locked in and safer with a 10 rep max deadlift weight over a super light one. 

Does calling a hot dog a bologna sandwich just further muddy the waters?

The difference too is Crisp Ratt and Leticia will make a comment, and it’s immediately buried or never spoken of again. Disney has their PR on lockdown and they generally do not want any of their stars expressing any major opinions.

I thought briefly about a prisoner exchange but a) no one knew Hopper was in a russian prison, b) how were the russians going to explain how they ended up holding a sheriff from small-town Indiana in a Siberian prison without admitting to either having a secret base under a mall and/or experimenting with the upside…

Along the same lines: lime juice. A splash of lime juice goes a long way in seltzer, and I don’t know if its the carbonation or what, but it brings out the lime flavor more than with regular water. I always keep a bottle of key lime juice in the fridge to add to seltzers. 

Or the kid had clogged ears/an ear infection? Ears are weird. I flew while congested in January and my flight there while I was actively congested I had no issues. Flying back, my congestion had cleared up (I thought) but within seconds of takeoff my eardrum busted (nothing like calling your doctor’s office on a…

Oh fuck yea. Toss them on a baking sheet with a touch of oil, some salt, and some garlic...broil until deliciousness happens. 

I don’t mind leftover mac and cheese. Sometimes it’s a bit dry, but it’s still mac and cheese. Maybe I’m just not picky.
