I worked in a hotel where the customer service policy was pretty much “give the customer whatever they ask for to resolve complaints, no questions, but make the customer name their price, don’t offer anything” which was a really fun policy for dealing with angry people. If they felt their room should be comped, done.…

I like to buy chocolate, wine, and lady products and go to the checkout line with a male cashier. Most guys pick up on it and are awkwardly sympathetic (which is ADORABLE), so guys pretend to be/are oblivious, and some guys are clearly embarrassed, which is good because being uncomfortable is how they will grow.

Well, that idea is not without precedent. A few months back there was a guy in Gerorgia offering free “Benjamin Button” haircuts for misbehaving kids and he received lots of praise for it.

I was talking about this with my coworker a couple weeks back and we are intrigued. We both hesitate because we’re horseback riding instructors and do a lot of physical labor in the barn and we ride frequently. Does it ever get unstuck or leak in exercise situations? Can you sleep with it in (on?)? Have sex while…

I’m not so hyped for Hillary, but I am excited enough about Bernie that I might order some merchandise just to support his campaign, especially since he’s the underdog.

If it’s truly American-made, then that is a really decent price for a throw pillow, considering the cheapest ones at the cheapest stores are usually $20+.

I was sexually assaulted on my 21st birthday in a national park and it never even crossed my mind that I should tell a ranger or the company I worked for. I didn’t want to believe it happened and I had no witnesses; I really didn’t want a big deal made out of it or to be known for it, I just wanted to get on with life…

Sebalter from Switzerland’s “Hunter of Stars” was my overall favorite last year. So catchy, so many English words that don’t really make sense strung together. And whistling!

Add in that bison mating season lines up perfectly with the height of summer tourist season, so they are frisky/horny/grumpy and more interesting to observe since they clump in herds of thousands, fight with each other over the ladies, and bone in plain sight. But it leads to lots and lots of opportunities for…

In Yellowstone, its gotten quite a bit better. People used to pitch fits if they didn’t see the wildlife they traveled all that way for. They used to have bear dumps a mile of so from the old Canyon hotel. It was a meadow surrounded by bleachers and people would spectate as all the food waste from the restaurant was…

I’ve spent two summers working in Yellowstone in concessions and hospitality. I scolded tourists so frequently that I was often mistaken for a park ranger. I saw a family of international tourists trying to put their toddler on a bison’s back for a photo, slammed the car in park, jumped out, and started yelling at…

I understand reservations about firearms. Certain types of guns make me nervous and I don’t think they should be sold to the public. We have an enormous problem of gun-related violence in this country, and there is a lot of misinformation spread among gun owners about the practicality of such-and-such a weapon being…

Me too, because all I can think of is land. Ridiculously large tracts of land that I could let grow wild and stick my tongue out at developers and never sell it and when I die I’ll entrust it all to the Nature Conservancy. Everything else I want is pretty mundane, like a new roof and a new muffler.

I had a European friend that we took to Toronto and Niagara Falls over a long weekend, and though he was pretty used to American accents and spoke excellent English, it took him a long time to hear the difference in THos when asked if he wanted white or wheat.

It’s a good view to have! My parents have stayed within 10 or so pounds of their weights since they adopted me in their 40s almost 30 years ago, and dieting has never been on their agenda. They almost never eat out, and eat a wide variety of proteins, fruit and veg. But my dad has a huge sweet tooth and will usually…

Our local major league soccer stadium sells craft beer for $10 in the stadium for the whole game (average bar price for a REALLY good beer here is about $6). Or you can step outside of the stadium onto the grounds (still only available to ticketholders) and buy $1 swill up until the end of the first half.

Thanks for sharing all this. Don’t apologize for the long answer because you have at least one eager reader! I lived in B-W for a while and did not get a lot of exposure to Germanic paganism though Waldgeister were everywhere in the Schwartzwald, so it’s nice to hear the religion is still around. Do modern pagans in…

I was adopted and have at least one older half-sibling whose existence is certain, with the potential for many more. I’m always on the lookout for people who look like me and am still living fairly close to the city I was born in. When I was a baby my mom took me to the zoo and saw a young woman “with [my] features.”…

38DD here. I'd been wearing 40-42Cs my whole life. Oh my God, I actually love my boobs now. I think bras are also victims of vanity sizing, because a lot of 36DDs fit me as well, so go try on a bunch! I'd given up on wearing bras until I watched a YouTube video informing me my cup size was wrong. When I tried on the…

And it was her first collegiate game, because she went on to play and score in another game shortly thereafter!
