I think it was meant to be 100 per cheese stick.

I worked at a McDonalds Cafe as a teen. The pizzas were just frozen like you'd get at Sam's. We had nachos and a few other things that I forget now.

I'm gonna be fucked. I guess I can tell my kids about the times when we just had 3G. Just kidding.

I think that participation trophies are sending the wrong message. Kids need to learn intrinsic rewards as opposed to extrinisic rewards. Doing something for the pleasure of doing it as opposed to what they will get from it. That is a huge problem in schools. Kids have no drive to learn something just for the fact…

I was a quitter. If I wasn't automatically good at something I quit. I didn't want my kids to have that attitude, it was hard to overcome as an adult.

Lol, I dunno. I think for those of raised by people of a certain generation it was common to have "at least you weren't at the Holocaust" as a response to whatever we whined about.

Yes!!! And just brush off the dirt and realize you are gonna suck and no one is going to reward you for it. Then when you do it really well later and get recognition for it, it will mean something.

Cheese and crackers. Don't you get sick and damn tired of people making that comment to you? Yeesh.

I hate rewards for participation. I regularly tell my kids that it is totally normal to suck at things.

It's really not awful. I live in a pizza desert and often turn to Dominos to satiate my pizza cravings. It's never gonna be as good as a small nonchain pizza but it won't make you want to drink bleach to get the taste out of your mouth either.

As the mom of a teenage son I am doing just that. It's amazing though to see the way that he influences his friends. I drilled the term enthusiastic consent into his brain and he has done the same with his friends. Not all parents get it. Not all parents care. Not all parents have a good enough relationship with their…

That's because you are the MOST commenter friendly writer in the Gawkerverse.

As a weirdo History major I am epically pleased to find this commentary and conversation.

And I've never seen an uncut one!! I considered myself fairly, ehrm friendly, in my younger years but nope, never came across one.

I was poor, like homeless poor, growing up. I always longed for crisp new folders and shiny new pens and pencils as a kid. As a parent I have a fanaticism for school supplies and when I started going to a university myself I ODed on school supplies. I love them.

That was freaking incredible. She looked so mad when the ducklings were wandering. And the duckling nursed with no lips!! Thank you for sharing that.

That's exactly what it was!!

Let's not forget Timmy, surely Lassie isn't equipped to be a babysitter.

I recently started making double decker tacos at home. Why haven't I been always doing this? Now all I do is eat them and nap. Sometimes have some circus peanuts as a palate cleanser.
