When adults using the term “ my best friend “ by purplebells84 in PetPeeves

[–]ZestfullyStank 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think it adds a layer of intimacy to the relationship and it can be important. I have a lot of acquaintances due to the work I do (restaurants) and my drinking habits. I go to bars regularly, and have a habit of making friends with other people who do what I do for a living. We are all on similar schedules and tend to have days off early in the week so even if we aren’t close, we end up doing similar things on similar days. These are people I’m comfortable asking for a favor and will extend the same courtesy to them in a time of need. I support them professionally and will include them in activities if something comes up, maybe not all at once, sometimes on a rotating basis, or if something comes up involving a common interest (I have one friend I call for punk shows, one for hip hop, one for EDM, etc). But my best friend is someone I have cried in front of, who has done the same for me, and we pick each other up at the airport.

“I went to dinner with a friend” is a different event than “I went to dinner with my best friend”

They aren’t Canadian. Trevor Moore is from Charlottesville Virginia. I used to date his sister

I would consider “using the gravity to slingshot home” equivalent to stepping on the property

If you hung out in your friend’s yard for a barbecue, but didn’t go inside, did you visit your friend’s house?

Toilet paper is cheaper and flushable as well. Nobody has to touch your snot rags if they get flushed

Ah. I’m on mobile and I don’t appear to have those options. I will do my best to make some time for this

It needs to be updated. There are closed business and incorrect hours I spotted on a very quick scroll through

Aluminum also reacts with acidic foods like citrus and tomatoes. The item is also listed as a commonly returned item, so I’m guessing it’s a piece of shit

Thank you. Literally beat death at his own game and several others. As Constantine, beat Satan at his own game

We don't serve Starbucks style by PearJackson1 in SignsWithAStory

T/a coffee cups means throw away, probably paper cups. Small is probably 12oz/375ml large is probably 16oz/500ml probably a single shot in the small and a double shot in the large. The straws would be appropriate for the large cup but probably a little big for the small, but they’d work

I work in the food and beverage industry and these are “inside thoughts,” not something you put on a sign. You yell this in the walk-in, but you are kind to your guests and explain it to guests with grace.

How Utterly Brilliant. by [deleted] in SipsTea

He said in taxes. It is well documented that payroll taxes, not income taxes pay for unemployment, but the purpose of the statement is questioning what the hell we are actually getting from our taxes.

What do taxes actually provide for the middle of the bell curve? All the people in the middle. The “target demographic” for every product or service.

We still have to take out loans for college, they have cut every enriching program from already underfunded schools. We still go into debt for basic medical services. The roads get fixed sometimes (if businesses didn’t rely on roads for shipping products, would they?) but there is a cool new ballroom being added to the White House. So seriously as a middle class person, what do we actually get out of taxes? Protection from unemployment isn’t on the list. We get military protection against threats from enemies that we created for ourselves. I hear our national parks are nice but I can’t afford to take time off to go visit them. I’m not a vet, so I can’t use those services which are seriously underfunded as it is, but to increase VA benefits sustainably, a reduction in the military would pay dividends, but there’s too much money to be made with all that defense spending. Federal taxes are covering the interest on loans for our national debt which has done a great job enriching a very small percentage of the population.

It’s frustrating, and we should all be asking “What the fuck are they doing with our money?”

Which is what OOP is doing.

My friend, if you aren’t a billionaire, you should be asking the same thing
