Except that my son and I thought we had the flu, but it turned out to be the peanut butter. I prefer to not refrigerate, but the misery we went through makes me put the jar in the fridge once it’s opened.

This season they’ve added more women to the writing staff, which I think has made a huge difference in the relationships and arcs of the characters, especially Rick.

Forgiveness in Christianity, actual Biblical forgiveness, requires many things from the offender. The offender has to stop the behavior, make amends, ask for forgiveness. The victim does not have to forgive at any point; there’s no requirement of it, although it is pushed that if the offender is repentant and truly…

Fields where women are the majority of employees are always paid less than fields where men are the majority. As you stated, women’s work is not valued. But, if men start entering the field, what happened at Google is incredibly, depressingly common. Men will be paid more, no matter their skill or experience or…

We share the same opinion of Paul! Thank you.

This is like chipping an ice cube off of a glacier. Short of a complete reboot of society, I don’t see much changing.

Cut out as much yeast and sugar in your diet as possible. Garlic supplements can help, but they can also be irritating. I consider them a Hail Mary.

I wear glasses, so 3D is a huge annoyance for me.

Maggie Stiefvater tweeted about pulling into a gas station in her Evo and have some guy ask if that was her “man’s car.” He couldn’t get it into his head that a woman would want/drive a car like that. Idjit.

This woman wouldn’t have complimented you on your 240Z because I never cared for them. An actual Fairlady, maybe.

You ignored everything I wrote and then decided to try to justify being selfish and cheap. I tip 20%-30% at a sit down meal. Occasionally, 50%. If you can’t spare a couple of dollars for the people who prepare your food, then you need to work on your budget, and your attitude.
