Careful. Alerting G/O writers to the existence of human beings outside of the NY tri-state area could be too much of a shock.

No tool on earth compares to Snap-On phillips screwdrivers. The unfamiliar might think there’s no way a pack of 7 can be worth $200, but they are.  They’re the difference between an easy job and hours of drilling out rounded screws.  They’re a lifetime gift that will be the centerpiece and most reached for tools in…

If you know the person has a bunch of stuff, but is generally frugal when buying, it can be great to pick one or two basic tools and give them the really nice version (Wera, Knipex, Wiha, Snap-on, etc.) A couple screwdrivers or a pair of pliers might sound basic; but nice things are expensive for a reason and will…

And just what, exactly, is wrong with having a “boob” light? We have them in all four bedrooms in our house, which we’ve lived in for over 12 years, and not one person visiting has ever said a word. And believe me, there were plenty of people who would have said something. Just because you’ve judged them as…

there are so many more important things i could do with my time, and i certainly never even thought it looked like a boob before now, so thanks, i guess?

My sister and I have been on a years-long quest to stop the madness for our mother for Thanksgiving. We host for about 10-12 people, and she would spend the whole day in the kitchen without accepting help. A few years ago, my brother-in-law volunteered to make the turkey, and my sisters and I each made a side and…

I’ve found that buying whatever was cutting edge, top of the line from LAST year tends to be the sweet spot for buying computers (and computer parts).

We also have a Rinnai. Best investment ever! We are going on 7 years as well with no problems. Only way to go.

Don’t be in a crowd that doesn’t have some kind of baffles.   Permanent tables & benches, walls, anything that can break one of those “surges” and reduce the open areas to manageable spaces.  You can survive dozens of people pushing against you...   not thousands.

Can’t wait until they come out with the Mega Millions rewards cards.

I choose to believe they’ve used a fibonacci sequence: $100, $200, $300, $500, and so on.

As someone who has never gotten a dui in 40 years of driving, the fact that one was not enough for you to change your ways makes any input from you on the subject beyond invalid. Idiot.

60 mph is a highway, there should be a minimum speed for that road, you have to be suicidal to ride there. 

When in doubt - get something interesting and local.  The proliferation of microbreweries and distilleries means just about every area has their own stamp on a type of alcohol.

I, for one, can’t wait to get old and retire so that everyone will finally leave me the fuck alone.

I would just like to point out that no matter what you did your bed frame was never going to survive. IKEA furniture is junk (I’m sure I am the first person to come to this revelation). It is not made to be moved or disassembled then reassembled. You set it up once and leave it put. When it comes time to move then you…

I don’t remember facts, I just remember horribly bad jokes that even a 6 year old thinks are horrible and bad.

Hey guys am I doing this right
