I was waiting on the next Dr Nerdlove but it seems you did a good job filling in! I started to wonder if every nerd love question was "why doesn't she notice me pining from the shadows?" or if EVERY relationship question ever was like that.

Thank you for the picture. You win the internet today. I am taking this and sharing it so that it may be seen far and wide.

I pay with card, which means no cash to tip with. Suggestions?

I wonder how ethical it is too. What if it's slave labor? I know this applies to everything in American (Foxconn for electronics, the sugar industry, clothing and textiles) but shouldn't we talk about it? Are we taking food from countries that need it more?

My sleep doesn't feel "restful" but I don't have issues being awake (I don't fall asleep during the day, don't need excessive amounts of caffeine, I can stay up once I get up, etc). However, it does feel restful when I sleep in on the weekends (bad habit I know). Is there a reason for this? Why does some sleep feel…

So Pdxwhy, are you in PDX? Because if you know a tailor, I would love to know. Depending on how expensive "expensive" is.

Anyone have insight into having someone make your clothes personally? I go to stores and hate most of what they have because it doesn't fit or it's not the style I'm looking for. Or when I find it, I feel it's overpriced (I grew up poor so clothes over $20-$30 make me cringe).

I'm not really sure why you bothered to resurrect this post. Your point is that all societies have beauty standards, so it's okay? Please don't bother me again.

You call it a mountain out of a mole hill. Yet I see men all the time that are looking for that "perfect woman" that includes the second picture female, whereas they will pass by the woman on the left. Then they cry that they are being deceived.

Oh cheese :( I will miss you the most!

Thanks for the article. I've struggled for years with IBS. Since it's determined by ruling out other factors, I've always felt there might be something else and I appreciate your article.

When I got my promotion, the person previous left suddenly and there was a big hole in the company and I knew it would take at least 2 weeks before they hired someone new. Not only did I the owners I was interested (small company), I told them several times that if they needed ANYTHING, I was willing to help out.…

I knew a lot of people that would put in the bare minimum required, always complain about the company, never said or did anything that alluded to the idea that they wanted to be promoted, and then they wondered why they were never promoted. Also, being the most senior does not mean you're the most qualified.

Can I add, "communicate with your other coworkers first"? I have 4 employees that sometimes come to me with complaints that I feel like they can take care of amongst themselves. I had an issue the other day where each of them came to me individually complaining about lunch times. They were all sitting around…

Some people can't find the server if you say, "Click on that. That takes you to the server." I put a shortcut on their desktop and told them to save everything in there to make sure it was backed up. When their computer went down and they freaked out, I said, "Didn't you save it in your folder on the shared drive?"…

I work for a small company (less than 50 employees) and we've been hanging on to XP. Our most important software runs on DOS anyway so we've never been inclined to upgrade. Not to mention the money to replace 20+ computers just to load a new Microsoft to do the same thing as before, and the money to buy a disc for…

There's a difference between being clean and well kept, and looking at someone and saying, "She's not the exact height/weight/shape/hair color that I want. I'm not going to talk to her."

I live in Portland and Voodoo Doughnuts is always packed. The room you order in is a hole in the wall and the line will go down the block. We <3 our weird.

I watched "An Idiot Abroad" and Karl said, "People ask me, 'are you coming out next Tuesday?' and I say, 'I dunno, it's not Tuesday yet.'"

You don't think of next weekend on Monday? That's all I can think about, that and there had better be a pot of coffee in the break room by the time I get there, or so help me.
