This! I tried to get my fiancé to sit down with me and hammer out a budget, and he was like “why can’t we just see what things cost when we get to them and just go item by item?” At the time, I was like, “isn’t that how $10,000 weddings turn in to $50,000 weddings?” Now I’m glad, because trying to pull numbers off of…

Fair about not crapping on David’s. When I went there, I found some things that I thought looked very nice on me and was overall pleased with the experience (except the painful back spasms that happened immediately as I prepared to put on my first dress, but that had nothing to do with them and they were even nice…
I believe the polite way of saying it is, “they fat.”*
Don’t always assume it wasn’t because they weren’t listening. I’ve definitely on one occasion accidentally given whole milk to someone who asked for nonfat even after repeating back to her that she wanted nonfat. It was a long day, I was on autopilot, and I just naturally reached for the whole. It wasn’t until later…
Oh, they serve tacos...
We have a rule of thumb where I work. If you break down and clean the espresso station any time, any time at all before closing, the next person to walk in the door will order a latte/cappuccino/macchiato (even an americano would be preferable, but them’s the breaks). If you leave it messy, no one will order any…
why doesn’t this have more stars?
Ok I literally once saw someone try to refute that by saying, “well, what if the person was driving and was counting on the caffeine to wake them up/keep them awake and then fell asleep and had an accident, the barista could be held responsible for killing them.”
Yes to this. Though I will say that, to my friend’s credit, they never claim to be allergic to the pepper, and are apologetic. That said, every time we eat out together, I have visions of some red-faced chef throwing things at the poor server and screaming, “WHAT DO YOU MEAN ‘NO PEPPER ON THE STEAK!?’”
Side note, I legit have a friend who does not like/cannot eat cracked black pepper because they find it too spicy. I’m not even making this up. Then again, I also have a friend who is vegetarian, egg-free, dairy-free, and gluten-free and probably also allergic to red and crunchy. Or, as my coworker put it yesterday,…
Not actually necessarily true. I suggest you read the book “Hungry Monkey.” Very cool- a food writer discusses raising his child to (hopefully) not be a picky eater. It’s overall very successful, his kid seems to eat more foods than I do. But she definitely goes through phases of “I will only eat mac and cheese,” or…
Reading this, I think it also seems important to inform the good people of the BCO comments that I literally just looked in to mongrammed thermoses as bridesmaids gifts.
Is it bad that I read this whole thing and the only thing I retained was “peanut chicken in the slowcooker?”
There was. We gave out monogrammed thermoses, and none of the food was red or crunchy. You really missed out.
I think I looked at Logan prices, and they were significantly more expensive.
I was able to connect to it a few times, but never got the full 45 minutes worth without the connection disappearing for a good few minutes every so often. Hell of a lot better than Midway, though, where we had a 2 hour layover that turned in to a 6 hour layover and you only get 3o free minutes of wifi one time. At…
Yes indeedy!
She sounds like she was seriously zonked out on something. I mean, it also sounds like the kids were sugar-seeking monsters, but damn, lady!
Providence Airport is seriously getting on my nerves right now. Like, the internet cut out RIGHT AT 11:00:00. That’s some bull right there.
