The first summer out of high school, I worked as a groom in a stable. There were only a dozen horses, but a dozen horses can put you through quite a workout when you’re by yourself. In the interview, the owner said, “You may have to ride up to five hours a day,” which sounded FAB to me. I didn’t realize I’d have to…

Or just say, “Oh, put it in the tip jar” when they go to hand you back your change.

Tiny fingers, tiny head...you know what they say.

I love that idea.

Really? Are we treating this fanfic hack as if she’s a proper author now? What next, a close analysis of Jackie Collins’ greatest hits?

With 14 million subscribers, I doubt it’s the end of his career.

Back in the day I worked at Starbucks and before they used Sharpies to write on the cup and tick the little boxes, we had a system of placing the cups on the bar so that we would know at a glance what the drink was supposed to be. Sometimes people would reach over and grab the empty cups and I don’t know, look at them…

If you have BOTH your parents search a room for hidden cameras, you know something’s up, dude.

This is going to be a problem. People now are getting other people to front for them, adopting wild horses, and then trailering them to Canada for slaughter. They won’t care about that second $500, because they’ll make that much from the slaughter and won’t have to feed the horse.

And that train runs multiple times a day. It’s just flat-out ridiculous.

And you can get a perfectly serviceable eye mask at Claire’s, or you can just use a bandanna.

Why on Earth would you need to specify a gender when booking a flight?

There are also luxury sleepers just to get from Vancouver to Calgary. It’s ten hours on the Greyhound, and they are gruelling hours, but it’s like $150 vs over $10,000 on the train. I’m in Ottawa and pricing out the trip back to the coast, and to sleep in a chair all the way to Vancouver is $1700. To get an actual…

She’s not wrong. The guy who wrote Dress for Success researched voices too, and stated unequivocally that in blind tests women who dropped their voices by an octave were rewarded with assumptions of competence, intelligence, and leadership.

Just call her a “coloured person” and when she flips out, claim you were referring to her tats and makeup, and how could anyone be offended at that? Blink innocently when you say this, and be sure to get it all on video.

They’re good for a holiday or two, but it’s possible to make an actual living doing pet-sitting, and those sites as far as I’m aware don’t let you charge money. For the past seven years I’ve been pet-sitting and making money at it, and I can tell you it’s the IDEAL side hustle for a writer, because you’re always the…

Correction: she IS a scrappy YouTuber. She is just one who has, over time, become staggeringly successful. Her videos are great, and I’ve always loved watching her (and her music’s not bad either), but they’re primarily about her. I’m not sure how she’ll do when her job is to interact with other people and let them…

If she’s the journalist’s source, maybe she negotiated to be left out. IS ALICIA WITT THE DEEP THROAT OF HALLMARK MOVIES???

I remember this case from the Vanity Fair article. Sooooo twisted. At a certain point, don’t you look around at your Florida mansion with the gold toilets and all and think, “Yeah, that’s enough”?

Gloria Trevi, still an industry leader all these years later.
