Parkour rolls will save your ass, but the most important way to avoid fall damage is, when you’ve run off a cliff, don’t EVER. LOOK. DOWN.

Correct, just an expression. My inbox, vm, notifications, etc, all get marked as “read” instantly.

If you want me to never do business with you, call me without my permission. Even better, leave a flyer on my windshield at the train station. I take the paper. Make a mental note of the business, and then I recycle the flyer.

I’m sure the same argument was made against contractions like “I’ll” at some point too.

If you don’t need super thin slices, and don’t have time to let it defrost in the fridge overnight, you can also stick it in a ziplock with most of the air out and put it in a bowl of water. Maybe stick a can or something on top to weigh it down too. The breast should be nearly fully defrosted within 30mins - hour.…

I was approached by recruiters once. When you feel alienated and unwanted, someone acting like they like you and want you around is very attractive and inviting. I can see how people who aren’t virulently skeptical or whose skepticism is dulled by loneliness and isolation are good targets, even when they’re smart.

My mother was fiercely intelligent, and she lost about 10 years of her life to a Evangelical cult. I think her intellect actually worked against her — once she’d drunk the Kool-Aid, so to speak, she was able to come up with endless seemingly logical reasons why the insanity of the “Fellowship” was the one true way…

I talked to Paul Morantz about this very thing. According to him, being “intelligent” isn’t necessarily a protection against joining a dangerous group, and intelligent people often become the most passionate and devoted to it once they’re inside.  

Yeah, I appreciate this article for that reason. If everyone who thinks they’re strong enough/smart enough not to join a cult actually was then there wouldn’t be cults.

SO ORDERED.

Censuses are a HUGE source of information for genealogists. Some future ancestor could be looking for information on you for years, unable to find anything. Then, 72 years after it was taken, the census becomes public, and you are there in all your glory, sharing your story with your future family historian.

I really hate those questions and have never asked one, there’s a much better way to get the same problem solving results. Give the interviewee a real life scenario that will happen in the position they’re applying for and let them work that out.

Ironically, the review is very salty. I wonder if some music and lights would solve that.

I can’t recall the last time I measured salt.

I just can’t stop laughing. I mean what is next?

I do it with towels too. I check them out when I wash them, they start getting thin, they get cut up and put in the rag drawer.

Or doggie toys. My dog likes old shirts tied up into a knotted rope thing.

For those shirts, if they are the right material they can always be used as rags. The last time I stained wood I looked around for something to use and I ended up just pulling an old undershirt out of my dresser. The sleeve ripped right off and I tossed it when I was done with my project. I wouldn’t keep all of them…

When I was ten I didn’t have bills...the answer! Huzzah! Haha.

Worse yet, some states (Maine, for example) have reciprocity with Arizona. So in Maine, which takes hunter safety rather seriously, if you’ve had an Arizona hunting license, you can get one in Maine even though the standards are way lower in Arizona.
