Americans I have met abroad fit into three types - Americans who ONLY love Americans, Americans who HATE other Americans, and generally nice people. The Americans who want to hang with you just because you are American tend to be newer international travelers and mean well, but are just overwhelmed. The Americans who…

Umm, I had a boss TOTALLY tell me I was overpaid. Nevermind that I was technically underpaid, since the position I was in was rated to pay WAY more then the one I was in before. Then of course he followed that up with the "a monkey could do this job." The problem wasn't the job - we sold food that people regularly…

And if you are a guy who needs rules to meet women in a club, you should follow them.

So if you win the lottery tomorrow, what will you name your scholarship fund and will you maintain your current standard of living?

White people today just need to accept that there was a time when damn near all white people hated black people. Period. No safe harbor to say #notallwhitepeople .

Don't even start. Plenty of companies have failed because people were afraid to go against their bosses wishes. Here we have a guy who asked his parents for help in good faith, and was instructed to just focus on hockey and not worry about it. He had no reason not to trust them and was completely betrayed.

There are crazy deals on those wipes - we bought 100 tubs for the stockpile for $10 worth of coupons. And we use them for EVERYTHING.

Because Diageo is more powerful than Bushmaster...

I was perpetually shitfaced in my 20s... but I rarely let drinking or being hungover fuck me in other parts of my life. It happened every once in a while - but not in a real pattern. If you have a pattern of misbehavior fueled by a substance, and you can't stop on a dime - you are an addict and need help.

Turn down for WHAT?

If you have Prime and a TV, it was a must buy for $20. I didn't hesitate and I love it.

No love for Chris Brown, "This Christmas?"

I spoke with one of my white lawyer friends last night - and he reminded me that when the Maranda ruling was made, police departments had to make Maranda cards for officers hats so they would remember to give the speech each time they arrested someone. I do think cops, white cops too - mean well. But they have two…

Caribbean Princess of Princess Cruises has sit down meals for breakfast, lunch, and dinner included in the costs, as well as buffets, grills, and the pizzaria. Only booze and coffee cocktails and specialty restaurants weren't included.

I have heard too many stories of friends and relatives turning into goo after retiring. If I won the lottery, I would probably negotiate my job into a consultancy or a 75% position. I could still keep busy and do good work, but take a fancy month long vacation once a quarter.

If you ever go to Oslo, you can check out the totally awesome bar that sits in the garden of the Nobel Museum. It is one of the hottest spots in town... Yay Peace!

Optics and loyalty are often more important than skill in politics...

I started using StraightTalk a few years ago and never looked back. It is on the AT&T network, and even with the occasional shenanigans they pull with "Unlimited" data, I never felt the need to look elsewhere. I pay $50 (including tax) for their unlimited plan, plus a one time fee of $15 for international calling (it…

In my opinion, if you graduated from an elite school - who cares what your GPA is.
