Shit, now I have an earworm. Where I grew up, the Ajinomoto commercial aired all the time and their jingle was infectious.

I am told that Trader Joe’s garlic sauce is a dead ringer for Zankou’s. I can’t say for sure since I’ve never had Zankou’s but TJs is damn good all the same.

11 years ago, I was working a okay job, one that I excelled at, but had a crappy boss. One night he came in and gave me a bunch of shit over something I hadn’t been trained to do, ending with, “What are you, stupid?” I am non-confrontational to a fault, but that was too much. I followed him and gave him a piece of my…

That’s a helluva combination. I hope you’re doing okay right now.

I am a middle-aged white woman. Can confirm.

How do I sign up? Fat, middle-aged white ladies don’t have a whole lot of power, but I’d be happy to invest what privilege I do have in such an enterprise.

Something tells me she’s never invited to any cookouts, ever.

My husband, the white guy, bought his Toyota from an African-American salesguy in Texas.

First edition Lovecrafts? And assorted other incredibly cool and valuable books? It appears we have the same sister-in-law.

Yes, I’m aware of how the internet works. Nonetheless, the website itself and the author are both in the United States, and so US English spelling is the correct usage.
