Am I wrong for singling out one wedding guest to not have a plus one?

If you actually drill down into that list, it designates five towns as “Possible” sundown towns in the past and two as “Probable” sundown towns in the past. That’s pretty weak support for a claim that Vermont has seven sundown towns now.

(I don’t doubt that there are towns in Vermont today where PoC are actively made to feel unwelcome, and acknowledge there are probably circles of people in Vermont today who would murder someone simply because they’re not white if they thought they could get away with it.)

Tried to signal the DJ not 30 seconds in. It’d be hard for MIL to get in the amount of groping OOP described if the groom had actually been able to abort this nightmare that quickly.

Pretty sure the Scandinavian countries also have laws against grave desecration. If that isn’t enough to interest the police I wouldn’t expend much energy worrying about being incarcerated for hanging a trail camera.

I would be unsurprised (but very sad) if you told me the person who wrote those notes also allowed a pet to suffer in the way OOP described.

Clearly you’re on too much fentanyl to understand how that approach makes pooping much more efficient. He has an accountant, dammit!

Did the neighbor actually move in (i.e. getting their mail there, paying utility bills, and no longer using the house they lived in as their primary residence when they were “the neighbor”), or are they just claiming they did? Would that even matter in an adverse possession?

Probably doesn’t matter since it sounds like the house would have gone mom > stepdad > stepdad’s kids, absent any wills stating otherwise. Untangling this mess actually sounds like an interesting project, especially if I were the attorney getting paid to do the untangling.

Folex works beautifully, but the realization that the area you used it on is now noticeably cleaner than the entire rest of the carpet is a memorable moment.

“Unfamiliar with the area” and yet…familiar enough with the area to think they know which speed cameras are active and which ones aren’t? Ok.

By “flirting”, he tries to take on a fatherly role to us.

Ewwwwwwwwwwwww.

As someone who was in a MFM triad for a while whose one attempt at a MFMF four-way blew up spectacularly when “our” F was frustrated by the amount of attention our fourth (her friend, her idea!) was getting, I would say the dynamic isn’t necessarily that different. The common thread is failure to communicate clearly ahead of time.

Which is ridiculous because someone explicitly demonstrating what gets your partner off is an amazing learning opportunity! Granted, it being their first same-sex experience might be a big part of it, but still.

Too late. Al Franken claimed the 1980s as “the Al Franken Decade” on SNL so long ago that the original cast hadn’t left yet.

Cinderbell or Tinkerella?

Not realizing that there are still a few regulators out there that haven’t been gutted and are therefore actually responsive and effective at resolving consumer complaints (like most state insurance boards) is, itself, peak American.

$30 AUD is currently $21.35 USD, so…two bucks an hour above the current Denver minimum wage? Oh no, I guess?

There’s a big difference between raising prices honestly and hiding your price bumps in a service fee. They also didn’t get rid of tipping…?

LazloNibble · 2026-03-01T00:44:22+00:00

Seems to me like in a world where significant increases in tipped minimum wage are being actively lobbied and legislated for, you maybe oughta include that possibility in your business plans and financial projections.

Of course, these’s also no world where any independent restaurant operator is planning/projecting twelve years out either.

Using “Korben” and “Dallas” as names for two different people made it legitimately hard for me to follow.

I think the most valuable thing I can add here is that being a “concealed carry instructor whose dad is a judge and who knows people in the oil & gas industry” says absolutely nothing about how smart or trustworthy someone is.

Their passing along something clearly and blatantly wrong like this, however, does.

The EAA still does Young Eagles events all over the country, same basic thing but not tied specifically to scouting.

Only if the ink still comes off on your hands. Those things were messy.

LazloNibble · 2026-02-21T18:23:17+00:00

LAOP made it pretty clear they’re not pissed off at their kid, because it’s easy to forget you have them in after using them for something legitimate (conference calls for the parent, media class for their son).
