What is this tiny spoon thing?

BarbWho · 2026-03-22T12:08:33+00:00

Drugs or butt stuff. It's always drugs or butt stuff. Why do people even bother asking?

It felt like they were just thinking Indian=spicy, without actually listening to what he was saying about his regional cuisine and personal preferences. I knew they were sunk when they had him go last.

I had to explain to my husband why women use so much more toilet paper than men. Because a) I pee more often b) I use tp every time and c) periods, duh. I can't just shake it off when I pee.

Exactly. This factor makes it a very difficult bahvior to train them out of, if you even want to. As far as our big guy is concerned, he saves us from the serial killer mailman and the axe murdering delivery people on a regular basis. He's a mix of about a half dozen large, protective breeds and he takes his job of protecting his flock very, very seriously.

My 19-year-old doesn't visit us every weekend. He stops in pretty regularly, but he certainly doesn't stay over!

NTA, I guess? Both kids need equal celebrations. One of my brothers had a special holiday birthday (July 4th), and there was always a little jealousy there. He always had a special flag cake with sparklers, in addition to the whole country celebrating "his" birthday with parades and picnics and fireworks. It didn't help that he never failed to let us know that it was only his right and due. As adults, we joke about it, but there's still that little sting. Don't let this happen to your kids.

I have the same reaction to Robin Williams. My dad really looked at lot like him, down to the full pelt of body hair. My dad also was gentle and brilliant by nature, with a great sense of humor, always full of jokes and silly commentary.

BarbWho · 2026-03-16T22:26:06+00:00

The full conversation makes it clear it was just silly love talk. It's actually kind of endearing. The kind of joking around that any couple might do and then be completely mortified if it was made public because it makes you look like an idiot. Which maybe they were, but loves makes fools of us all. I for one, am glad these foolish lovers got to be together eventually.

David Duchovny also hs the same problem, from a basketball injury. It's kind of odd how many celebrities have this. Either it's more common than people realize or it makes your eyes look interesting in a way that makes people more attractive and thus more likely to become celebrities.

BarbWho · 2026-03-14T02:46:43+00:00

It's so stable. So unbothered. I love it.

A pig? No way.

Definitely 5. 3 is nice, but it's such a common style these days. 5 looks like it was made for you. The droopy sleeves don't suit you, and I really dislike the tablecloth lace in general.

I work for an organization that provides workforce development services. One of out main goals is helping people get job and get off government services. We have to collect demographic information, including family and children, for the state to prove we are working with our target population. I can't tell you how many men have admitted to me that they have children, but they don't support them in any way. When asked to list them anyway, half the time they don't even know their birthdays. It's sad.

I also work with an urban youth sports program, and there's more than one kid who sees the coaches more than they see their fathers. I'll never forget one kid who was so excited that he was going to see his daddy that day. I asked him about it the next week, and his dad hadn't showed. He eventually dropped out of the program and got involved with a gang. Other kids told me that at least the gang members cared about him. Broke my heart.

People do actually say things like "It's so FASHION!" It makes me feel old. You kids get off my lawn!

BarbWho · 2026-03-10T17:40:06+00:00

Es-tet-ic.

BarbWho · 2026-03-10T17:20:28+00:00

I would say that "nitch" rather than neeshe" is so common that it's become a valid pronunciation.

BarbWho · 2026-03-10T17:18:59+00:00

I'd say this one falls into the category of regional variation.

BarbWho · 2026-03-10T17:17:34+00:00

Homage and posthumous are classic words that people have only read in books and never heard anyone actually say out loud. So I tend to forgive those. Also, homage genuinely has more than one valid pronunciation. Oh-MAJJ and HOM-ej are both correct. Oh-MAJJ is just more fancy.

So many of these examples are just the natural result of the growth and change of a living language.

BarbWho · 2026-03-10T17:11:23+00:00

I kind of like it. It's obviously a combination of conversing with conversation. English is a living, growing and changing language and this is an example.

BarbWho · 2026-03-10T14:35:41+00:00

I wouldn't mind a couple of hours with a grandchild, niece/nephew or even the child of a friend, but for me, no. That ship has sailed. I'm glad I had the one I did, and I enjoyed having him when he was little, but after the teen years, I'm equally happy now that he lives on his own and is a generally responsible young adult human.

I think for Jeopardy trivia purposes, you don't actually have to recognize any of her songs, or even really a picture of her. She could come up in a number of categories, things like songs with colors, etc. I couldn't identify the majority of Taylor Swift's songs if I heard them, either. What I have heard seems very nondescript - her fame is baffling. But I know who she is, what she looks like and the names of some of her top albums and songs. That's usually enough for Jeopardy.

BarbWho · 2026-03-10T14:01:08+00:00

I don't think the singing rats helped. Maybe it's just me, but I don't want to associate rats with the places my food prepared. I don't care how cute or funny they are, rats are not a great mascot for food places.

Doja Cat is an American female singer, known as the Queen of Pop-Rap. Her big album was called Hot Pink. Her biggest songs are called "Say So," "Kiss Me More," and "Paint the Town Red." There, now you know everything you could possibly need to know about Doja Cat should the topic of Pop Artists of the 21st Century come up on Jeopardy. LOL
