Fashion models aren’t role models. They are people who sell clothes. She sells clothes.

If you are headed into unseen dangers, always take a Murtagh. That was a great scene. In the books, he always made my heart hurt because he was so very protective of Jamie and stalwart when they needed to knock heads and take names.

Goddammit. I have to pay better attention. ‘Cause I had one for this column, too.

You remind me of something that happened to me.

I think the difference here is that it’s liquid cheeze and shaved meet, so without a bun, it’s like a Lovecraftian monster of formless evil.

My mother still tells the story of her first meal with her MIL (my grandmother) where the MIL served fried chicken and then ate with a knife and fork, forcing my mother (as was good manners) to do the same. All that would have been slightly annoying, but it’s the first meal with the (probable, at that time) in-laws,…

Beautiful. My first thought would have been to put the pepperoni completely by itself (i.e. no cheese or sauce), but cutting it into super-tiny pieces is at least as satisfying, if not more.

Another (regretfully) true story: During my Fazoli’s days (back at the second location I worked at) we had a guy who was a regular jackass. I hated this guy, because he was a condescending prick, and always had the most pain in the ass special orders he could come up with. So, one night during the week of the Final…

This was the 80s before the whole carb/gluten fear thing had even begun. I can see a burger without a bun, but a sliced roast beef and cheddar cheese sauce sandwich would be way too messy without the bun. I never said I understood why the guys who did it thought it was even funny because it’s really not, but neither…

It’s so strange to me that people don’t understand “washroom”. I’m from the US and I’ve never once misunderstood that term even before I ever touched the BBC.

A long and ongoing argument of my childhood was if we had to eat French fries with a fork. My dad would insist, because he was weirdly germophobic or whatever about us touching the remote control with gross fingers (pro-tip: don’t have 4 kids if the idea of dirty hands touching things in your house upsets you!). Which…

Me too, but I also don’t understand why people think it’s funny to order a Whopper at McDonald's.

To reply to everyone who has replied thus far, it was stupid joke that for some reason took off in our area. They always expected to get their sandwich on an actual bun, but were trying (and failing) to be funny. As for how he served it to his last straw guy; he simply plopped the roast beef on the wrapper, poured the…

Definitely weird. Some foods are just meant to be messy.

This happened to the brother of an ex boyfriend. He worked at an Arby’s and had finally gotten tired of people ordering a big beef ‘n cheddar, extra cheese no bun; so one night the first asshole to pull up to the drive through and place that order got exactly what he asked for. Not only did he not lose his job when…

I just googled “scooped out bagel” in order to confirm that this is something being recommended by weight loss nitwits. YUP IT IS. I love when the NYPost is inadvertently awesome, though; they just chose the perfect vacant-looking dimwit to photograph and quote with the stunning insight, “It’s a lot less bread” http://…

This is more passive aggressive than it is smart ass, I guess, but I used to have a few customers who would ask me to scoop out the bread from their bagel at our cafe. This irritated me because it would usually be when there was a decent morning rush to get through, and I had to hollow out both sides of the bagel…

In before all of the pro-forkite and anti-forkite arguments.
