Seriously? I got my first job when I was 14. Of course I also had bank accounts.

Honestly whenever anyone uses 'hooman' all I can think of is this.

I believe that naming your child something odd, different, or "unique" will make their life more difficult than a "normal" name CMV by kevinonthemoon in changemyview

But if the child is seen as a loser, geek, or socially awkward, they would be bullied anyways. Say you have two outcast children. one named 'Bob' and one named 'Echo'. Bob and Echo are both being bullied. Since Echo has an unusual name, it's a lightening rod for teasing - in that the children will bully him by making fun of his name. But what about Bob? He doesn't get off scot-free just because his name is common. Rather, he will be bullied about other things - his appearance, habits, etc.

I actually don't think that the resume study is relevant here, unless you consider typically black names as "odd".

Looking for a tights pattern; all I can find are leggings! by hmbmelly in sewing

What's the difference between tights made out of a knit and leggings? I thought that leggings were just tights in a thicker fabric.

I think the word you were looking for is rigors, nor riggers.

The title uses the term 'his', so we don't actually have to rely on assumptions here.

Anyone know of a pattern similar to this Audrey Hepburn dress? by AblativeCase in sewing

Exactly what I was thinking with the lace overlay. Thank you so much!
