I'm terrible with names. I've found that the reason for it is that you don't need to know someone's name unless you're talking about them. If you're talking to someone you very rarely use their name. On the other hand I'm great with numbers. I still know the social security number of a guy I bunked with in the…

All mortgages pay off interest before principal, however they can't put money toward interest that isn't owed. They don't take a 30 year loan and say X amount is the interest over 30 years.

I'm not a goal person either. Happiness is enjoying what you have, not having what you want.
Thank you, this has to be the most annoying thing about Netflix streaming. Normally I only want to watch one episode of a specific show and then switch to another.
You don't have to buy anything. As the article points out chores are a great thing you can do for your partner. I had Monday off for President's Day, but my wife had to work.

While cool in concept, being a cook myself, I find I organize my spices by usage. The more I use it, the better its location. On the top row are Oregano, Basil, Thyme, Rosemary, Marjoram, Chili Powder and Cumin. Second row might be baking/dessert type spices, Cinnamon, Ginger, and Nutmeg. Everything else is used…
I don't worry about anything under $100. Over $100 one day per $100 waiting period, less if I have something I've "decided" to purchase and I find it on sale. An example of this would be two years ago prior to Black Friday I told my wife I was looking to get a 1080p projector to replace my 720p projector. I found…
Humble Bundle frequently has comic book collections for dirt cheap. I've picked up Archie, Star Trek, Walking Dead, and a bunch of independent books.
The problem using pheromones is that you don't smell that way all of the time. Even if it did work in the short term you would effectively be cheating the system and it isn't a long term solution.
