    Tried this. She hates anyone else in her kitchen. It's a no go. Good try, though. Well, I'll be staying in, in that case.

    My mother in law once made "stuffing" in the crock pot. It was wet bread. This is going to suck.

    The house I'm in had gutter shields when I got here. They work really well. Last fall I pulled them off and pressure washed out the gutters, but that was the first time they had been cleaned in 7 years. They came out easily, and went back in easily. I have LOTS of trees, including maples...

    Gorgonzola Alfredo is a snap to make if you go full on unhealthy and don't care. Reduce heavy whipping cream in a pan until it's the consistency you like, then add your cheese, some nutmeg, salt and pepper. Toss with your pasta and pour on your steak. Delicious. It's what places like Olive...

    Going to my in laws house over night. My mother in law insists on cooking. Nothing fresh, everything from a can, pretty much every dinner involves some casserole that has cream of mushroom soup in it. gag.

    Will you convert to the religion of Cheeses of Nazareth? Do you love Cheeses that much? Will you invite Cheeses in to your heart?

    Bleu Cheese in a cream sauce over the right kind of pasta is bloody delicious. Or replace Bleu Cheese with Gorgonzola. That shit's delicious. You just have to use the right amount so as to not over power the dish.

    Yup. I like cheddar in grilled cheese, too. Recently I made a goat-cheese grilled cheese. It was also tasty. Crazy good with the tomato soup I made.

    Fine, you wouldn't have bought the food for your kids who were incredibly hungry and tired, who needed to eat and there were incredibly limited options. Good for you. But, someone calls you a faggot, and you call the cops? Yeah. Right. -911 what is your emergency? -Someone just called...

    I find this very interesting. I've used Allstate now for years and years. My rates have been incredibly consistent for all the policies. My Allstate agent is a guy who has been operating since about 1990. I wonder how much it differs from agent to agent?

    Yeah, there is a point where you have to stand up for yourself. Calling out a couple of stupid people in a restaurant we'll never be in again while my kids watch isn't one of those times. I could not care less what those people think of me, nor did those people have any impact on what my wife...

    A gift card to go back to the restaurant? No thanks. There was no point writing an angry letter. No one is ever going to change any of those people. They're happy to exist in their tiny, shitty world. Let them. That's the best punishment. If my family were to take them seriously, I suppose...

    Really? You get douchey service and the first response is to sue them? Didn't cross my mind once. So, yeah, no fuck ton of money. Who is going to break it to my wife that I'm a confirmed faggot?

    Probably more than you'd think. Indiana is a weirdly religious place. And by religious, I mean bloody crazy, unreasonable, and irrational.

    Car Insurance

    Yeah, we do the lump sum, too. Twice per year we get a bill, and pay the full amount. I just took the amount we pay for six months, and divided it by six. That's the monthly cost to which I referred. Pay it all at once, don't pay interest. That'll save you a lot.

    Chick Fil A pisses me off. I don't care at all what their political or religious position is. I seriously don't want the restaurant at which I eat to have a political religious position at all. Make good food. Shut the fuck up about everything else. Oh, you can't possibly shut the fuck up...

    I have Allstate. Also for my motorcycle and home owner's insurance. Get hefty discounts for all the policies at one place. My wife had a car insurance claim once a few years ago, premiums didn't go up. We pay 1400$ per year for a car, mini van, and motorcycle, so just under 117$ per month...

    I just watched the fat lady scene. That's some pretty quality television. The way this guy approaches things and the things he writes are pretty brutally honest, even if intended as comedic caricature. I think he's a very bright guy, and while it's hard to recommend his show to anyone, as he...
