I don’t know how parents are today, but in 1995, “wait for Mom to have something to do and invite the girlfriend over to do the things that high school seniors do when they’re in full frontal hormone mode while she’s gone” was a viable strategy. Whether Mom “let me” never entered into it, and it would’ve been weird…

I’m not sure how this would be different than most teens now I suspect, that as in my youth, they have a keen sense of when their parents won’t be home, and manage to have enough sex. I don’t think there needs to be a discussion and scheduling.

It seems like the groundwork for this kind of thing would need to be laid years in advance. I’d think you’d have to have a parent/child relationship where there is a high comfort level talking about the body, sex, sexuality and feelings in order for this to not become “Hey guys, my mom is so cool. She said I can have…

The downside of this, however, is that I’m so used to listening to my podcasts at 1.2X speed now that if I happen to catch Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me live as it’s airing, everyone sounds like they’re talking slowly...

I do the same thing to Youtube Videos

I want to phrase this correctly, but I fear I won’t. I haven’t clicked on their stories because I won’t, but I’m guessing it’s just boobs right? On that note it’s just fucking boobs you stupid idiots! Stop making it exploitation! Is their any actress working today who hasn’t had a scene with her top off!? Melissa Joan…

My dad doesn’t watch Doctor Who but knows what it is about. I was explaining regeneration to him and said a new actor was taking the role. A lot of people were upset. He asked why and I said guess. It’s a woman was what he said. I told he he was right. He just shook his head and called them assholes.

Whatever. If it’s still got the right contestants and charming lack of ginned-up conflict and arcs, it will work.

I don’t think the magic of the original GBBO cast will ever be matched. They had real chemistry and genuinely seemed to have fun together.

His finishing move is “The Safe Space” in which he runs his opponent over from inside his Prius.

Some lavs are bigger than others. It may well be that the one you remember was that large. Some planes have handicap accessible lavs, for example, or larger ones in biz/first classes.

I love GBBO and this is an interesting hypothesis, but I think the nature of the show, especially compared to the average “not here to make friends” shows we are all used to, is in the production of the show. Flow does not explain my favorite part of the show, which is people encouraging and even using their own time…

Most problematic was the unusual control that the author,

I don’t mind pooping on a plane. What I do mind is that one now has to be a contortionist in those now pint-size bathrooms. The airlines have decided to tighten the customer service screw even tighter by downsizing the bathrooms in order to get an extra row of seats. 

I love being paid to poop. I always go at work. Why wait until you get home and go for free? It helps when you work at a complex that’s over 1million sqft. There are about 50-60 bathrooms. We compare notes on which ones are the best.

I pretty much came here just for flight attendant comments, and I was not disappointed. Thank you.

“And don’t dilly dally if you can help it”

Best time to poop

Worry about the smell? I’d open the door and do my best “DO NOT GO IN THERE, WOOOOOOO” to the next person.
