Inflammable!

Liev Schreiber is definitely the type of person who interjects conversations with “Oh, you need x/y/z? Because I got a guy.”

I’ll also be needing that guava cream cheese pound cake recipe, please very much and thank you.

YES. My Gram’s handwritten index card recipes say things like “add to taste” and “a dab of” over and over again. Thanks for nothing, Gram!

I’m not maxing out the 401k, sorry if that wasn’t clear. I’m contributing enough to earn the full company match from my employer, so no benefits are being left on the table, but I’m not hitting the IRS contribution limit.

...coffee milk?

Music streaming cannot figure me out, so I’m curious to see if movie services can. I may have to try this—for science!

Particularly if you’re serving in or near a tourist trap. Many people can’t lug a styrofoam box around after they leave a restaurant, I can’t fault anyone for wanting to minimize waste.

My problem is figuring out when to stop upping contributions to my 401k (after getting the full match, of course) and instead starting a taxable investing account. I hate the idea of tying up all my money in age-dictated savings vehicles. I want more flexibility in case I have the opportunity to retire younger.

Buried the lede. You have unique and marketable translation skills.

I desperately want a hat with netting. I should befriend an elderly, sick Sicilian in order to have an excuse to buy one.*

That photo is making me question my sobriety, and I haven’t had alcohol in weeks.

Good question. If districts impose a step freeze in retaliation, teachers could be stuck at that current +5% amount indefinitely.

I am also surprised that open compound words are being added. Then again, that seems to open the floodgates in a way that could keep lexicographers busy until the end of time, so...job security?

Dictionaries are sociological and historical references, not rule books. Unfortunately.

If it doesn’t come with a giant wooden pedestal and multiple volumes, it ain’t* a dictionary.

Luther is incredible. I had an impassioned debate with a friend last night regarding whether Jordan’s Oscar was cooler than Keegan’s WHCD appearance with Obama.

I have three replies, but nothing from you, either within the story itself or in my notifications. Sorry. :(

A-a-ron, because I know so many teachers that it’s not even satire.

Well, that’s no gouda.
