Current losing battle:

I had someone tell me she thought I'd just been spelling wrong when I wrote dreamt. And learnt. And burnt. And spilt.

I agree with the statistic, I just don't see how it is appropriate for the infographic.

The century called "not America"? Some of us were taught that in school just the other year, you know.

The bit where I weigh a quarter cup of flour makes me wonder why I don't just not read the weight and start mixing right away.

I wash my dry goods measuring cups on a schedule based on time, not usage, unless I've been heaving a lot of moist brown sugar or cocoa or something. Between different flours, oats, white sugars..I'd be just fine with any solution that kept all four front and centre.

You have just solved my public laundry room issues. With a Moto X, that could be entirely hands free no matter the state of my phone...Whee!!!

If you build them into the wall, aren't you using space that wasn't available to you in the first place, because it's all wall now?

It doesn't have to be a dedicated scoop—if you have a row of four containers, you just got hanging space for four cups. No law against taking the 1/4 from the last container and using it in the first.

I fucking hate this. There's no easy way to ensure you're getting valid "some are porn, some are birds" results from Google. Either it will force Safesearch on you despite settings, or you have to force XXX on it and get only porn results.

I had a (married) co-worker send me an emo letter about how he was quitting the job because he couldn't stand to work beside me anymore, and maybe if he could have one night with me he'd reconsider and stay with the company. (And by emo I mean contained Cohen song lyrics and a feather).

I just got spoiled and I have to admit, so far I haven't seen anyone sincerely guess right.

It brews up to 1750ml, I think.

Breuville One Touch Tea maker, timed brew, specific temperatures, spoilt brat==me.

My eureka! notebook is "Serials, manuals, and tech documentation". TV, computers, cameras, tablets, etc—I have a note titled the make and model and network name, and the first thing is a picture of the serial number panel, and then I insert a PDF of the manual, and if it has a static IP address, or if there's other…

This doesn't align with my experiences, but I suspect I'm not from where you are. American yam things are nasty sweet and overpowering. Sweet potatoes, which are also sweet potatoes where I come from are sweet, but not overpoweringly so, and have a delicate, slightly fluffy flavour. Yams are much less sweet and are…

I think in all the worlds it's called "usability", and it works in your favour.

Why is dislike jealousy? Why can't it just be...bad taste? Bad judgement? A leftover trauma from grade school? Why do you go straight to jealousy?

Super stupid? Who's the one that doesn't realise that a decent amount of people sleep during every flight over three or so hours?
