This is why Lean In bugged me. It was a guide to begging, negotiating, and cajoling men into being decent human beings. Don’t forget to smile the whole time you’re asking for equal pay or a clean load of laundry!

“When you’re young, you don’t question. When you’re young, you’re like, ‘I gotta be tough. I gotta be, like, down to really perform, and if that means they need me to go this extra mile [I will]…’ People take advantage of that. People have always taken advantage of that.”

Bacterial growth can go away on its own (or rather, stop growing and die out as your regular healthy body flora regulates itself back into alignment) but there’s a reason we live longer on average than our ancestors. If there’s a harmful bacteria growing in your ear, or sinus, or throat, not treating it is like…

SGX reiterated this point numerous times: he’s just roleplaying, and the people who are criticizing him and reporting his channel are the real bullies and harassers.

Role playing involves consent and I don't think that this guy gets that. 

Lawyer here, it actually is a binding oral contract. There was an offer, consideration, and acceptance, which is all that is needed for a binding contract in this situation. Here the acceptance could have been the act of drinking the bottle (performance of his obligations under the contract) or verbally accepting. The…

In Florida, he would have stabbed him with the bottle of hot sauce.

Yet my MIL swears that Metarie is such a safe place to live. It isn’t like New Orleans.

The restaurant’s owner said the alleged victim has routinely walked out of the restaurant without paying the bill

“Congratulations, Takeout reader, you are about to embark on the weirdest food story of the week.”

The thing is, the science between whether a food is ‘good’ or ‘bad’ for you is all over the place. We’ve been arguing over fucking eggs since before I was born and I think we still haven’t gotten a straight answer despite reams of research on it. We’ve went from good to bad to good to ‘whites=good,yolks=bad’ to good…

I hated him, but now that I see his sweet tribal tattoo, I’m positively swooning. Swooning.

25 years ago I had one class that was only one quarter long and it was taught by a guy who I have since come to understand is a quack and a snake oil salesman.

“The issue at hand is that someone in public service shouldn’t be in the business of hating anyone but believing and living human rights, ethics, etc.”

I believe if you are using a gas burner, you can simply tip the pan a bit an allow the burner to light the brandy fumes.

Ugh... I have a general lack of respect for doctors anyway.  It sucks getting old and not being able to find a doctor you won’t roll your eyes at.  I think the last handful I’ve seen over the years have all just given me a shrug, a disinterested “I dunno... just wait and see if it gets better, I guess..” and sent me a…

If its one thing I know about racists its they can’t help but out themselves. If he’s being prosecuting Latinx gang members since 2006 everyone he works with knows what kind of racist asshole he is. the no doubt even have some cute euphemism for it “He’s tough on crime.” or “law and order” or whatever. This…

Defense attorneys going to be storming the judge’s chambers like Black Friday shoppers at Wal-Mart.

Heavy sigh. The withdrawal of support: check. The calling on him to withdraw his candidacy; so, civil.

Exactly, every single case he has prosecuted even as an assistant will now be under heavy scrutiny with potential for appeals.
