Dude, shut up. We don’t want assholes like him moving here!

Needs more Leon Russell.

No, weiners and beans is a thing here in Ontario, too. Or sometimes beaners and weans, just to be dumb.

It’s funny, I now remember receiving gifts with talc powders as a girl and being baffled as to their use. I was (am) a tomboy, so lots of things like this baffled me. My mom didn’t offer me any hints either (in hindsight, thanks mom!).

I’m sorry you feel like you’re waiting for bad news. That’s a crappy feeling, especially when it sounds like someone (J&J) should have known better.

Gender attitudes indeed. It’s BS as far as I’m concerned, and BIG GYMNASTICS (they’re not), if you’re listening, this is why I will never watch these kick-ass women kick ass :(

Exactly. But why? Men’s and woman’s moguls aren’t judged differently, nor diving. Even figure skating is pretty close in terms of judging for both genders. Why is gymnastics such an outlier?

Fair point about the different apparatuses (although is it really fair? Why don’t they compete in the same equipment?), but I just watched some of the women’s floor exercises and I have the same frustration. Why are the woman flouncing around in between throwing down flips and spins that are demonstrations of their…

Really? Why don’t the men do it?

I’m going to get bashed for my ignorance here, but I don’t care. What’s with the flouncing? I don’t know what else to call it, I’m talking about the ‘cute’ little hip and arm twitches she adds in between her actual moves. I ask because I find it incredibly off putting. This gymnast did a great job with her recovery,…

I heard something lately that makes me a bit more sympathetic to contractors. It was from a private chef, but it still applies. He was talking about how about 75% of of the inquiries he fields go no where, and that at first contact it’s hard to tell the difference between a serious client and a high schooler…

That sucks. I was in a major city (Toronto), but this was also 20 years ago, so I wonder how much demand has dropped in that time.

This is why you find a driving school and take a lesson on a manual. One lesson was enough to get me driving stick well enough to not kill a clutch. Did I still occasionally stall in an intersection? Yes! But at least I didn’t kill the car.

Here’s what you actually NEED (at least in my jurisdiction):

Your breakroom comment really struck me - I’m amazed at how Petty and shitty people can be about food. I don’t have an eating disorder, and I’m a healthy weight, so I don’t get too much beef about my weight one way or another. But I’ve still been on the receiving end of some judgy-ass comments. Like over a chocolate…

a man who may or may not have been the inspiration for Slender Man,

Okay, that makes a bit of sense. I was picturing people just handing over firearms like library books.

Loaner guns?? I don’t know why, but this strikes me as especially insane - and yes, I’m reading an article about a shooting at a gender reveal party. Who in their right mind would loan you (or me or any random person in a class) a gun?

Does this make a 3rd PR disaster? Is this a 3 strikes you’re out situation?? Pretty please???

And now I want pie. Steak and cheese? Pulled pork?? So many choices!
