It's more common for a name to go from a "boy" name to a "girl" name over time. See Ashley, Aubrey, Brook, Darcy, Hilary, Kelley, Madison, Morgan, Shannon, Shelley, Taylor, etc. Read more
Your zero sum game added the "last one out" bit on its own, since I said I don't do this near closing. I'm sorry you're so irritated with your hypothetical co-worker that you'd rather they get nothing. :( Read more
Ooh, yeah, I hadn't even really thought of co-worker dynamics, just what seemed "fair" from my perspective. Read more
My entire reasoning was to make sure I tipped both servers. Why would I stiff the first one when they're the one who took care of us during the high(er) maintenance part of our meal? Read more
desserts require little effort on the part of the server at most places Read more
Which is really who I care about keeping happy, since it's my kind and benevolent server who keeps the diet Dr Peppers coming while I sit on my Ameripean ass. :D Read more

The call was coming from inside the house! Read more
All the stars for the Vimes reference! Read more
C'mon guys, you're supposed to put it in your pocket and turn it sideways! Read more
I'm hoping they'll update at that point. Read more
Also: the iPhone is still by far the fastest phone around, so no need to catch up there. Read more
There's absolutely nothing to say that the father listed on a BC is the biological father. It's already not a guaranteed record of genetic linkage. Read more
You referred to the fact that people "genetically came from two people" and that the birth certificate is a record of that fact. DNA seemed like a fair synonym. That's how you identify bio-parents in the first place. However, because a birth certificate is a legal identity document and not a medical record, it has… Read more
