Seriously, this basically says to magically become passionate about being excellent at something even though the thing itself bores you to tears and you really deep down don’t care about it. Well, that’s not at all easier said than done. I don’t know about other people, but I can’t just manufacture passion. Passion…

That’s kind of how I feel when people bitch about ‘political correctness’ Like, I’m sure there are instances where it’s taken too far, but for the most part being ‘politically correct’ is basically just not being an asshole and having at least a tiny grain of consideration for other people and the fact that the things…

I realize it’s not technically an appliance, but have you ever had to deal with any kind of sewer main situation? I’ve had to snake the one at my house twice and finally had call in the professionals to dig up part of my yard and replace part of it when it was determined that it had collapsed due to tree roots. And…

I dunno, I used to work in an office building on the one non-crackhouse block in a decaying downtown area surrounded by crackhouses. There was a Subway across the street that was basically the only place to eat that didn’t involve getting the car and driving 20 minutes. I ate there a lot, not because I liked it but…

“It is not clear from the profile exactly how Tiffany will shed her “forgotten,” “B-list Trump” persona, and serve her father’s campaign”

Your comment made me really, really, really appreciate my washing machine and dryer, even though the fill valve on the machine is broken and I have to run a hose from the faucet into the machine and turn on the tap to fill it. (I’m capable of fixing this and even have the part, I just haven’t yet because it involves…

I took ‘don’t have leg hair’ to mean that you choose to remove whatever leg hair you have, as opposed having legs that magically don’t grown any hair. I sorted myself into the ‘don’t have leg hair’ category for that reason.

This is precisely how I felt when a bunch of trendy fashion bloggers start posting about how such-and-such trendy NYC/London/Paris brunch spot has ‘OMGEEEEEtheBEEESTavocodotoast!!!!’

I had a courthouse wedding, so no first dance (also, Mr. Bat does not dance unless he’s really drunk and It’s Tricky by Run DMC is playing) but I would have chosen ‘Perfect Day’ by Lou Reed, or possibly ‘Come Dancing’ by the Kinks (this also would have been a father/daughter dance possibility, as my dad fucking loves…

I bet they’re doing it on purpose at this point. I have no idea who this person is, and I would never have known about whatever crap she’s peddling if there hadn’t been a post on something I actually do read about how she ‘forgot’ to leave out the instructions from the company.

Several other commentators have noted that may baby powders are made with cornstarch now, which is correct, so I just cut out the middleman and use plain cornstarch when needed. Might be worth a try. I also try to keep it off my actual scalp and apply just to my hair, which can be a little tricky.

I couldn’t help but wonder.... Is the character she plays on this show going to be as awful as Carrie Bradshaw?

I work in a field where I am adjacent to, but don’t usually have direct contact with, a number of fancy rich people who like to show everyone else how fancy and rich they are. Apparently, one of them asked a coworker if she thought you were supposed to tip the wine person (probably not the word he used) if the bottle…

Kansas residents, bear in mind that our bullshit proof of citizenship requirement is still partially in effect - I think if you register for the first time in the state you need to provide proof that you are a US citizen within 90 days or your application will be denied. If you register to vote when you renew your…

We don’t have hard water as bad as some places, but we do have it. So yeah, that why vinegar is incorporated into a LOT of our cleaning.

I have to wear a loose top with no sleeves. I generally just wear a t-shirt with the sleeves cut of like Mac from Sunny in Philadelphia. I can’t handle anything clinging to my torso. But I wear tight pants because I can’t handle anything flapping around my lower half.

Yes! I put vinegar in the rinse cycle for all of my laundry - seems to help rinse out more of the detergent and my workout stuff doesn’t smell (as far as I can tell)

The thing is, in my fairly recent experience, if you want to check your bag you end up having to wait in a crazy long line to do so, then go wait in the security line, then have to wait for the bag to show up on the other end. Whereas, if you carry on you just have to wait in one stupidly long line and then you’re on…

I... would actually be willing to try that.

It’s striking to me how many of these industries (movies, modeling, publishing) are
