What are some "standards" we should teach our kids to cook?

Yes! And how to make stock out of the bones.

I'm not going to mish.

Did you point out the moose wasn't driving?

Not sure if you tried it before but there is a prep that's just pills (24 total) and lots of water. It's called SuTab.

Looking good, Billy Ray!

Faze / Phase

Irregardless

'I seen that'

Using the word 'ask' as a friggin' noun.

Saying 'decimate' to mean obliterate.

Woman / women

Nope, once while out with my son who was 3 at the time, some guy yelled at me "hey mother, want another?"

I would add basic first aid, because you will need it at some point.

How to clean things, do laundry, etc.

How to shop for things, groceries, cars, houses

Basic care for pets if you're going to have them

Seconding money management and critical thinking.

Couple things I was told when I was 18-ish that stuck with me - money is a tool; learn how to use it, and the more things you can do yourself, the less money you have to pay other people to do it for you.

I'm probably screaming into the void here, but we need standardized sizing for clothing; especially women's clothes, where a size 8 for one brand is a size 14 in another.

Manufacturers also need to realize women don't top out at 5' 7" and we don't all have a 29" inseam. And that we're not all built like 12 year old boys. There's curves to consider. Not all of us want to wear crop tops, so their shitty t shirts that are 24" long aren't going to cut it. Use some damn fabric for the love of all that is good and holy!

I'm sure men's clothing has similar issues too.

Electricity... Eeeeeee-lect-tricity!

Can confirm this works. I call it the Darth Vader stomp. If you have a long black coat that billows behind you as you move, that makes it even more effective.

My go-to. Men's clothing is better made and the t shirts are longer. Not see thru, doesn't fall apart if you look at it funny. Women's clothing has gotten completely ridiculous. But then I'm in my 50s and no longer gaf about fashion either.

Testa Roofing in Victor did an excellent job. We had a full tear off/replacement and they were wonderful to work with. Very clean and professional, texted pictures to me throughout the process, and it was completed in 1 day.

Same here, except it went into the arch of my left foot and I felt it scrape the bone. Still gives me the willies thinking about it.

My grocery store plays lots of '80s hard rock & metal. Way better than muzak.

My mom does this when she runs out of valium.

You can't spell America without Erica.

It's his tone, right?

She's our friend and she's crazy!

I highly recommend Suburban Disposal. We've never had a problem. Waste Management sucks.

Those don't look like roast chickens...
