As someone who works in film, I can indeed confirm his behavior and his type.

My daughter saw the bull trot past while she was at recess!! She saw a “large dog” running past on the sidewalk only to realize it was a bull. Imagine this 7-year old pointing it out to the playground ladies and them screaming (in their best BK accents), “Oh my gawd, it’s a caaaa-owwwww!!!!”

I think in-laws are always a bit complicated. My relationships with mine have morphed over the years in ways I never imagined they would, especially after children came into the picture.

Fucking Spokane.

Oh yay, I’m being treated for one now. Great to read this first thing, blargh. The pee after sex is key though I will say I always do. Showering is important, too, which is like that sex and the city episode with the “shower of shame guy.” UTIs are horrible.

He gives up seats on the train to little old ladies! He’s never lost “it” and never will. True blue Keanu!

Why don’t they just go to the insanely pretentious, overpriced, by appt only rink at Brookfield Place? Too close to the tragedy of the WTCs?

Please say you’re talking about Remix, reborn from the 80's Fat City. Thursday was alternative night. The weekend was when it got reallllllly skeezy.

“Spittle flecked” is moving to the top of my DT descriptors list.

I know it may seem cynical to think this way, but I’m completely in agreement.

That’s fully Ukrainian/Polish grandma styling. Only thing missing is the crystal cut bowl of stale hard candies.

Winchester. Mystery. House.

Exactly!! My keen sense of smell was how I knew I was pregnant twice. I was so repulsed by smells that I barely ate when I was pregnant. Cold cheese on white bread, baby. With my second, which was this time of year 7 years ago, a friend handed me a mulled wine at a holiday party and I took one whiff and knew. Dumped…

Yes, they are perfection! And they cost a buck fifty a pack when I was over there! I haven’t seen them for years....

Ooh, I need to find that article! I was a brand whore to be sure: American Spirits and Dave’s lights (early 90s Seattle); Camel lights and Sherman’s Hint of Mint (mid-90's NYC); Camel Reds and Gauloise blonde lights (early aughts Europe).

My husband is in a union, not SAG, but he’s under the parent union that governs them all. Union dues go toward pension, health insurance and a laundry list of “others.”

Agree wholeheartedly. White American girl here, cried when I first heard/saw Formation, know my reaction is unimportant but just was floored by the power.

Yes to do dumb and/or racist. And also I very clearly remember having been taught these terms in history class in middle school, possibly AP American History in high school (I’m 40). And I come from a not-so-liberal part of a blue state.

Omfg

Yep. The drugs thing...all of my 90s creepy ghost/not ghost interactions come from people who had altered states or were recently sober. That door gets opened.
