I’ve been there too. Please remember the voice is wrong — you’re not a piece of shit!

That’s so awesome! I wish churches would pray for climate scientists too, who may not work miracles but who very effectively point out the error of our ways...

Speaking as a vegan with cats: You suck it up and buy the fish. Cats love fish. Done and done.

Aw, I’ll so miss your articles! This series has been so funny and great.

Love that Orlando Jones wore something so fun and colorful! The dudes always look so boring in their dark suits.

Your mom is not a garbage person. My family also has health and mobility issues and has on occasion had to order during bad weather. We also give big tips and are super nice. Based on the happy interactions I’ve had with delivery folks, they have not minded. And even if they did, when your health is really bad,…

What? That is EVIL.

Same! HORRIFYING.

Oh man! I’m going to seriously miss your posts! Thank you for everything you’ve written here...

I gotcha. Have you looked into the animal welfare issues involved in egg production, not that it’s any of my business what you’re thinking ethically? Egg production is kind of... let’s just say it’s not pretty. (Chicks ground up alive, etc...) Maybe this is another reason to try the delicious alternative? (Or not,…

You won’t even try it? It’s really eggy! (And so much better for you than all that cholesterol...)

Buy organic tomato sauce. It tastes 10 times better than non-organic and doesn’t kill our planet, so. And bay windows? They leak! Joke’s on you, rich bay window owners.

Did anyone else notice that on the table in the photo in question, there’s a basket of vegetables? There’s some drinks and then this basket with a cloth in it, as if it perhaps includes some kind of snack, but it’s just whole raw eggplants and peppers. And maybe a potato? It’s maybe a centerpiece? Anyway, this…

Wow. That is gross and also very noble.

Ooooh, good word. We need a similar one for the people who stand on the left on those moving sidewalks at airports. GRRRRRR.

Okay, now I’m crying because I’ve finished reading the whole post and literally every story was beautiful and I want to thank every single writer and every single customer, and the wonderful editor. Jeez BCO is a good feature. (Former food service worker and labor activist here, so these stories are close to my heart!)

Thanks to Katie Fiorentino for sharing that first story! I feel embarrassed I haven’t done that myself, so glad for the suggestion!

Thank you!

Thank you for saying something; that term is used a lot around here. It doesn’t seem like a healthy thing to call a person trash.

Wow, thanks for that link. Weird! They point out that artificial turf gets really hot, so maybe (non-toxic) painting isn’t that bad in comparison?
