Literally everyone likes Dax and Kristen and hearing about their marriage.  It’s how they both make a ton of money. 

There is nothing more annoying than when people assume you’re stupid and don’t understand the underlying principles when in reality you’re simply very very against them.  But thank you. 

I feel like this happens a lot but it’s usually a judgement call on the server’s part. If the table has just gotten their food and you need to get out of there, you transfer to another server and forgo the tip (honestly, it’s one of those things that usually balances itself out, because you’ll take tables over for

I honestly have always wondered what would happen if single people did a class action lawsuit against the government for discrimination.  Because the answer to your question is of course, there is no reason why single people should effectively be taxed at a higher rate.  I know marital status/being single is not a

The concept that a) being married and b) staying married c) that all married people have children is somehow a “better relationship choice” is so completely wrong I don’t understand where to start.

I’m so glad we are moving beyond just meat products; I hope one day we move beyond companies saying “Just remove 2/3s of the product!!!!” and counting that as a vegan offering lol

The point is not necessarily health, but the enormous economic and ethical impact of the meat industry.

The moral panic is irritating enough in general, but the hypocritical moral panic is just too much for me lol.

1) It’s still a pretty crappy article though if the journalist is only referencing things specific to their exact scenario and not other widely used apps.

This is probably also specific to the library itself - I get 12 hoopla downloads a month. 

Came here to comment the same thing - Hoopla is definitely a contender for the list for decent selection and navigation for library books.

So odds are the problem here is actually that you think your preferences (disliking small talk) are more important than other people’s comfort and that you have a right to ask these questions as long as you just figure out a way to make them palatable. They’re... not palatable. 

Hold up. I’m literally just challenging the original commenter’s false analogy of swapping genders and facts randomly because that does not work as a thought experiment or real analysis of the situation. In one of my examples I put forth that the person is abusive, in the other one I do not, to show that. At no point

Okay - what if you changed the gender the other way? What if it was a woman pushing her older abusive stepfather down the stairs? We’d be fucking cheering for her. Or what if you changed both genders? a man pushing his stepfather downstairs? We’d go mmm men are so physical, this seems more normal.

I feel like I’m missing something. The Trader Joe’s re-sell products on Amazon (which btw the link here is broken!) are usually sold at an enormous markup of the instore price. You could go to TJs, buy both the item and like five impulse items and still save money from buying it online.

Lol this.  This is all you have to do. 

I wish I had a nickel for every time some douchebag thought “humor” was an okay excuse for being a complete knob of a human being.

And by thought, I also mean “pretended that he meant it in joking way as a cover up once he realized everyone thought he was being a dick”

Maybe what’s not good is you realizing how much you take for granted in being able to make a quick and obviously exaggerated opinion on the internet when women would get literal death threats from this kind of thing. 

I’m saying this as a woman, but I don’t necessarily fault men for not understanding how bad it is. I do fault them for not asking or listening when they are told. David is asking and actively trying to learn and then spread that knowledge - so no, now is not the time to call him not good.

Not necessarily. Let’s say they’re running an extra 1600 a month in profits and they go great! extra profits! Let’s take that money and refurbish the pizza ovens, or let’s take that money and give our employees a 50 cent raise, or let’s take that money and buy a new fleet of delivery cars.....that money is now gone.
