You're talking about Friends now, right? If you are, I believe Monica inherited that massive apartment from her grandmother, and was able to keep the super old (read: low) rent along with it. *edit* I just realized what I typed and I'll go ahead and turn in my man card at the door on the way out.

It's sad how easy this is. My brother called Olive Garden corporate once and said (lied) he ate at such-and-such location and invented a bunch of problems. They sent him a $50 Olive Garden gift card in the mail.

Unless their fuck ups are directly affecting you in a negative way, stay the fuck out of it.

It depends on where you work. I spent 5 years in a restaurant in a ghetto-as-fuck area and it was insane the number of ridiculous, baseless complaints we'd get about stuff. It was clear that these people just didn't want to pay for their food. For example, at least 3 or 4 times a month I'd...

I wouldn't want to be like Don, at least not in anything but his supreme confidence and skill. Overall he's a terrible human being.

Interesting. Seems like it's 2 decades too late, though. Also, I'm confused how this fits into the "Aliens" timeline?

This is how I generally handle it as well, although if there is a real problem with the food (i.e not simpley "I don't like it", but undercooked, spoiled, etc.) then you should absolutely point it out to someone who can remedy it, even if you don't plan on returning.

This. I don't know how people can drink it with water. It just tastes awful. Milk4life, yo!

The comment about "women's work" is interesting and made me think. I know lots of women who are AMAZING cooks in almost all food areas, and yet none of them can cook a steak worth a damn.

best post about steak ever.

At first I was like, "Awesome! A spin-off movie about the most bad ass member of House Tully". Then I was like, "What? A movie about whales?" Then I watched the trailer and I was like, "Holy shit, this looks fantastic and I really want to see it."

I've been pondering which Mad Men character I'm most like in terms of personality, and I've come to the depressing conclusion that I'm either: a) a much less successful Pete or b) a much less charismatic Bob Benson (and minus the gay)

Holy shit, all this time and I never realized your name was "genius" backwards. Clearly a genius I am not.

You can take the thug out of the hood, but you can't take the hood out of the thug.

Squat rack + bench and a bunch of weights are all you really need. I'd kill to have the space even for just a bench and some dumbbells/barbell. Someday! I've seen several people on various fitness/body building forums build their own power racks, benches, etc. You might take that route if...

Hernandez needs to get Jay Cutler as his lawyer. He'll get off scott free. Or maybe Tony Romo.

Jesus Christ, how fucking stupid do you have to be to throw away so much wealth and fame? It's not even like he lost his cool and did something in the heat of the moment. It sounds/looks like he planned all this shit. Which actually makes it even more mind boggling, because you'd assume that...

Is Tanoomba Aamina? -Aamina

How safe is it to buy refurbished laptops from places like Newegg or the Lenovo Outlet? I've never bought refurbished but the prices can be pretty enticing sometimes. Do you have to worry about a refurbished laptop shitting the bed within a year or having other random problems quickly?

You could maybe look into the shoes that restaurant waiters/waitresses wear. They're generally designed to be extremely sturdy, slip-resistant, and easy to clean while still being comfortable for long periods of standing/walking and looking somewhat decent. They generally come in black but I'm...

Pussification in America at work. A guy is a huge art fan and has one of those really nice, coffee-table-style art books you can buy at The National Gallery, Metropolitan Museum of Art, etc., the kind of book you buy as a gift for an art lover. He loans it to a coworker who is also a huge fan of...

This describes my childhood exactly. Surrounded by well-done-eating savages, I never knew better until I was a teenager and somehow got a medium rare steak (probably forgot to specify, like you) and it was a HOLY SHIT HOW HAVE I LIVED MY LIFE UP TILL NOW moment. Never looked back. This.

That scene scared the shit out of me! Calm, peaceful, safe Rivendell, the one place in Middle Earth where nothing bad can happ...HOLY SHIT WTF WAS THAT.

The White House is one of the most disappointing world-famous landmarks you could ever see. It looks so grandiose on TV, movies, and in pictures, but when you walk up to it you realize it's basically a shitty little McMansion. You're like, "is that it?" and then you turn around and realize the...

Anything over medium is a crime against humanity. And even medium should only be used sparingly.

Chuk is a shitty name and you'll forever be Astr0creep.

I hope everyone is familiar with the greatest politician.

I remember playing Dragon Warrior before I learned about saving games. I'd just play the first 30 minutes or so of the game over and over.

Is that a girl's Robin costume? Why does it have a skirt instead of the standard underpants? Are the Robin pic and the turkey pic at the same weight? You look like a 12-year-old boy in the turkey pic, but much better in the Robin pic. Maybe it's just the angles.

Any landlord who isn't a piece of shit slumlord should be, yes. I've never had a landlord--in houses or apartments--not take care of maintenance issues.

I really enjoyed the movie, but Lyrical has made me see the light and now I hate it. P.S. Sequel needs more black Lois and hobo Superman (with a holey sock).

Confirmed Pretzel Bun hipster.

It's not just for seafood. Put that shit on fries, chicken, use it in rubs for ribs and steak, the uses are endless. I brought a massive tub of it overseas and shared it with some foreign, third-world savages and it changed their lives. I've never heard of most of these companies: Taco...

GEICO for Maryland? I'd say that's more synonymous with D.C. Should be Old Bay. Do people outside of the mid-Atlantic even know about Old Bay?

I don't agree with this. He comes home and randomly says "let's drop everything here and move to California, even though you've got a great job and are actively living your dream of acting in a successful TV show." Don said he needed the move to California, that he couldn't go on like he had...

Don really fucked over Megan because she lost an awesome TV role because of him. I'd be insanely pissed if I quit my job to be with someone and then they said "lol j/k bro". I don't get all the Megan hate. She wasn't perfect, but Don was terrible to her while she was being faithful to him...

I got the whole set (48?) to frame. Fucking loved these things as a kid.

Thanks for the example. That's exactly the point I was trying to get across: compare the situation you described to the situation I described and it's clear that it's way easier to save up for "the American dream" when you don't live in overpriced areas of the country.

You might not be able to live "well" (of course, "well" is different for every individual) on $2500/month, but that amount of money will go A LOT farther in some areas of the country than others. My whole point is that telling someone to hunker down, suck it up, and give up conveniences in...

Do it. It literally could not get simpler: you drag a sharp object across your face. With electric razors I was always going over the same area multiple times in multiple directions to get a close-ish shave, and with cartridges I had to be careful about the direction I shaved to avoid...
