I'm normally fairly stoic, but there's something about losing one's significant other/fiance/husband that just destroys me.

The wood splitter, or the body spray?

You know, I find people who do this at weddings annoying, yet I find this adorable.

The ten year old served me these this morning. You can keep your nasty old waffles, Pinkham, I shall be enjoying my made from scratch smiley pancakes.

God, how I wish I could hand this our as reading material for those "special" customers who blunder in with no reservations and can't believe there's no availability. Or those idiots who can only get a 5PM reservation (when we open) because that's all we have left and then when they arrive gawk at the empty tables.…

My late mother always said "You are NOT taking me out to a restaurant on Mother's Day. That's when all the people who never eat out are at restaurants, and I'm not eating with those idiots."

I've actually seen this on several holidays. The reason it's done is that when a kitchen only has to prepare 4-5 items instead of 30, it makes things run A LOT smoother on a super-busy day, which is perfectly understandable.

I could be eating only wads of bacon and working out hours a day. As it happens I'm mostly vegetarian with some fish and I don't eat a lot of dairy…

I'm not saying that calling any group of women 'hyenas' is the best idea in the world, BUT I always cringe when I see defensive responses to zoomorphic language that emphasize how offensive it is - inherently! - be compared to a non-human animal. Yeah, I mean, Brown didn't mean it in a positive way, and that should be…

This article neatly sums up why your attitude in this matter is pretty archaic...

Many years ago, as a junior high student, my homeroom teacher took me out into the hall to talk to me about my not reciting the pledge. I explained to him that I did not recite it because I didn't find the words to be true. He said something to me about patriotism and people serving in the military, and I informed…

That flag flew over plantations for a good long while. It flew over segregated schools. It flies over courthouses that define marriage with a religious authority. That flag has flown over countries before and after innocents have suffered. Flags ARE hollow gestures.
