No, you're actually correct. The character shapes hold the cheese much better, because they've got all those little holes that get clogged with cheese. Each bite you take delivers much more cheese flavor than regular elbow or bowtie pasta, neither of which are good at holding the cheese. Regular...

The whole points system is stupid as fuck. I keep telling her to get out of the government and into the private sector (which she could easily find, I'm sure, due to her government work), but she doesn't want to lose her benefits like insane amounts of PTO. Maybe this will finally push her out...

if your cereal is lasting long enough in the cupboard for it to go stale, you're not eating it right.

A few weeks ago my girlfriend applied for a government job (she is already in the government, but a different department/agency) and they sent her a tentative offer of employment with a salary level, papers to start a security clearance check, and some other forms to sign and return. Well, today...

Rofl, I'm seriously tempted to fly out just for that. The last person who challenged me to a chipotle eating contest ended up losing horribly and spending the next couple days in agony. If you find yourself in MD, let me know!

I dated a girl who loved to drink. She wasn't an alcoholic, but she loved to party and she could pound down shots with the best of them. It got super tiring very quickly dealing with her when she was drunk. In fact, I hate dealing with all drunk people now. Now non-drinker (or at least really...

I rocked the 2 day stubble for a few years. I just got one of those shitty foil-head electric razors and used that once every couple days for a couple minutes. It was crappy enough that it didn't come close to giving me a clean shave, but it kept things short enough so I didn't progress into...

Awesome, +1 joeboo. I forgot about Googledocs, that's the perfect solution. Thanks.

Girls that used to be fat are just waiting to get married so they can put the weight back on again.

Two self-confessed* super tasters commenting on the taste of food. *I think, I get Tarrant and Chaos confused.

Even if she does lose all that weight, going down 100+ pounds is going to leave her as a mess of nasty, sagging loose skin.

This is just a simple thing my department wants to set up, it's nothing official or important which is why it needs to be free. My first suggestion was to buy a simple domain name from Godaddy or something and throw everything into one of their professional looking templates. Normally I'd put...

I've been given a task at work, since I'm apparently a technology expert due to my ability to operate Microsoft Word properly. Anyway... I've got about a hundred links to various audio/video recordings scattered in various places around the web (e.g., Youtube, MP3s on websites, etc.). I need...

Absolutely. One of my old companies switched from paying out up to 40 hours to not paying out at all (i.e., use it or lose it) and there was a huge uproar. Like Khane mentioned, it just resulted in tons of people taking off purely because they had hours they knew they'd lose, whereas with the...

From what I read, it varies by location. They are only able to offer a limited selection of breakfast items all day, so they choose the ones that are popular sellers in their areas. That means the bacon/egg/cheese bagel isn't popular where you are. Start requesting it more and maybe they'll add...

Laser hair removal!

Wrong. Cereal is meant to be drowned in milk and eaten quickly so it doesn't get soggy. This leaves you with a massive bowl of cereal-flavored milk to drink afterwards. People who fill a bowl with cereal and then put a tiny bit of milk are doing it wrong.

I think it's easier to have pride in your work when you're producing something tangible and/or your work matters a lot in the overall picture. I used to do work that quite literally didn't matter much 90% of the time, and it was work that no one else noticed or cared about. It's hard to maintain...

Diet Coke

That is my favorite, minus the Dr. Pepper.

I'm picturing accidentally peeling off thin layers of my cheeks like skin off an apple.

Most overseas McD's are way, way nicer than here. I think it's a combination of a few factors: 1) Overseas most McD's are newer, so by default they're going to be cleaner/nicer 2) McD's is an American product (i.e., foreign for them), so it's viewed as something a little more special than...

I haven't watched the season premiere yet, but I have higher hopes for this season now that Katrina is gone. She was really grating on me by the end of last season.

It took me way too long to realize you guys weren't talking about Rerolled's Cad.

The thing I dislike about food trucks is that you have to stand and eat, or sit on the ground and eat like an animal. It's fine if you're getting a hot dog or some kind of finger food, but people get shit like gourmet waffles and then crouch on the ground like god damn dogs or stand and try to...

I put people down as references all the time without telling them. The difference is that I know they won't mind and that they will give me a good reference if/when someone calls. And yes, I think it's somewhat common to not check references. I've had a few jobs where I provided references that...

I'm no eHarmony white knight, but I think your experience with eHarmony probably goes back to a location issue. I used it for quite some time and they never ignored my preferences, and the vast majority of people matched to me had pictures and were responsive. I think that is true for every...

What the fuck is going on in this thread? I've been insanely busy lately, so I've only been checking this thread sporadically and infrequently; however, each time I've checked it I've seen some bullshit like class/poverty discussions, hipsters, and buying-and-butchering cows. What the fuck? Oh...

I like the individual foods in most of the dishes, but I don't see why they all need to be heaped together. I guess they're designed for the type of people that throw all their food into a big pile when they go to buffets. I keep things separate.

If I have to assemble and/or disassemble the food then it's difficult to eat, imo. I don't go out and pay my hard-earned money to have people shove a bunch of ingredients onto a skewer only to have me immediately remove them from the skewer. Shit's silly!

I'd eat it but I like my food to be practical. I've never been a fan of silly presentations that make things more difficult to eat.

Denny's pancake puppies are amazing. The strawberry ones with the frosting for dipping instead of syrup are top notch.

This show is bad, based on the pilot. The main guy is pretty good, but the girl is unbearable. She's not believable as a cop at all (look at her outfit and shoes when working), and it's almost like they got the discount version of the chick who plays Abby Mills on Sleepy Hollow. Special effects...

The boy scouts need to up their game, no one wants your shitty popcorn, boy scouts. They've been camping (lolpun) outside my local grocery store the past week and I have to tell them "No" each time I go (almost daily). The next time they ask I'm seriously going to explain that they need to get...

this is truth. I love all the discounted reeses eggs after easter. they have piles and piles of the individual ones marked down to like 50% off or more. way better than regular reeses.

The original coffee thread might be old, but it has tons of great information in it.

I want to try that pumpkin cheesecake Ben & Jerry's. Haven't seen it yet in my grocery stores. If they never get it I will be upset.

I got an offer letter at around 6pm one time, with a request for the signed reply by 10:00am the next morning.

Or, you know, you could post in the REALcoffee thread.

Oh. He said "if you open any emails from Match.com", which I took to mean deleting the actual emails from your email account and not logging into the site to delete things.
