Similar situation, except my family still lives there, so I have to go back. I routinely start yelling at asshole drivers at the BWI pick up area.  My one comfort is my husband’s from North Jersey and they’re just as bad up there.  My blood pressure is elevated just thinking about driving on the east coast.

My fiance is emotionally broken over the fact that he’s had to create boundaries with his parents because of our short wedding invite list. Meanwhile I’ve had to deal with the fall out of that (they blame me, obviously), calm down my sister-in-law who is deathly afraid that I will hire a child molester babysitter for…

As someone planning a tasteful but small (20 people) wedding with a very small budget (because I fucking hate weddings and think they’re a waste of money), this is so accurate. “I spent $6,000 on my wedding dress”. Look Taylor, it’s not even that great of a dress and also you’re not pretty enough to make it in…

WATERLOO.

WATERLOO.

Swap out Waterloo for LaCroix. You’ll thank me. LaCroix tastes artificially sweetened. Waterloo actually tastes like fruit.

This is the correct answer. The mango is weird and gross. I say that as a person with a case of lemon Waterloo sitting next to my desk and an empty grapefruit can on my desk as we speak.  Glad to know they’re not just in Texas, as they’re an Austin brand.

A year ago, I had no time for carbonated beverages. Water or die. My husband purchased some grapefruit topos on a whim while I was out of the country this past January. We now have all three types of topos in our “water” fridge (it’s not a beer fridge because we don’t have any beer in it).

Fat Mac was maybe five years ago? He’s been back to his normal weight for a bit. Don’t know if it’s necessarily great for you, but I don’t think it’s super dangerous either.

I recognized him from IASIP, where they make reference to The Cosby Show.

Fellow Virgo - accurate AF. The fun thing about being a Virgo, to me, is that you’re not even sneaky about it. I will happily tell family members (and coworkers and friends) to their faces that they’re acting a fool and to either cut it out or not get invited to future events.

Just came her to mention that Mr. Johnson was also accused of plagiarism a second time after he was fired from buzzfeed: https://www.businessinsider.com/benny-johnson-independent-journal-review-2017-3

Welcome to the dark side.  It’s a slow slide into not watching football period.  But also does wonders for the mental health.

Burneko, I’m about to blow your mind.  Texas’ growing season is way longer.  I’ve had tomatoes since April and my plants are still producing.  Part ways with Maryland.  I did and I’m a lot better for it.

Starred for your position on Caprese cheese.  It it’s made from cow milk, it’s not real mozzarella.

Patently false. After years of tomato-less misery thanks to adapting to a new growing season, I pre-ordered 20lbs of tomatoes from my local farm. Who would have known that this is also the year I figure out how to grow my own.

I have a good therapist recommendation for you, but you’ll have to come back to Texas... 

THANK YOU CARDS???  That is adorably earnest.  Goddammit, I really am getting old.

I’ve always felt this way too. Here’s hoping Chaz cuts them all off. Fergie’s made a good show of trying to make her daughters a thing (and thus stay relevant). It double annoys me that these two are ahead of Peter and Zara in order of ascension (though Mike Tindall is an ass).

All I could think was “He seems nice, it’s a shame I can barely understand him with all that stuff in his mouth.”
