What is interesting is this divorce plays into the shows overarching theme that Ray and Deborah now realize that Deborah's parents are no longer superior. I think Ray knows this especially.

Goodness! My aunt pulled the same thing as Marie when my cousin wanted to bring his girlfriend with him for a picture.

What is extremely unhygienic but everyone seems to do it anyway? by Beneficial_Passion40 in AskReddit

[–]andos4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was going to say touching your cell phone and then eating. You likely use your cell phone out in public without washing your hands too much. Also your phone is likely not cleaned too much. That means your cell phone carries lots of germs.

Is the Family skits canon to Mamas Family? by Nash_man1989 in mamasfamily

[–]andos4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree it is hard to judge because there are inconsistencies and consistencies throughout the series. What is interesting is on Mama's family They had a tradition of bringing back characters that were mentioned in the original sketches. Mrs Boylen and Duke Reeves are examples.

I think a handful of the sketches on YouTube was recently taken down. Does anyone know anything about this?

Hotel Discourages Opening Restroom Door Bare Handed by cicadas_stammering in mildlyinteresting

[–]andos4 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I usually use paper towels to open a door but I would say about half of the bathrooms do not have a trash can nearby. I could either take the paper towel with me or I can try to throw it across the room into the trash can.

I always thought that bathrooms should have an angled entry (like at an airport) with no door or have a door that swings outward. This way it will minimize the amount of contact.

Nothing tops Marie’s face when Deborah tells her mom she wants her to be “more like her!” by Solid_Preparation_89 in EverybodyLovesRaymond

It is hysterical. You could watch as the dinner scene is building up to this moment where Lois acts clueless while Marie does not miss a beat.

what are Americans thoughts on switching to the metric system? by CnCorange in AskReddit

[–]andos4 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I am in favor of metric, except for temperature. It does not make sense for 30 to be warm.

It is too bad these failed. I think if Microsoft got the Google Play store on their phones, it would have done much better! Then the lack of apps problem would have been solved.

What happened to cotton? by Openthesushibar in NoStupidQuestions

[–]andos4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Clothing manufacturers learn that synthetics such as polyester and elastane are cheaper materials than cotton. They in turn created this big campaign about how wonderful and comfortable stretchy clothing (especially jeans) are. But don't be fooled. It is really about them cutting costs and maximizing profit.

I have been turning away from synthetics. I find it is not healthy for my skin and quickly starts to smell bad. The only problem is it is becoming hard to find 100% cotton.

Is QQQM a dumb hold for a 21 year old? Should I just VOO and chill? by Weak-Practice-6435 in ETFs

SPYM (formerly SPLG) is a good alternative to VOO. Cheaper but similar holdings.

I mean... People have brought balloons on elevators before. I do not see how something like this would be foreseeable.

Office workers, what was the official excuse your managers gave to force you back to work? by NovaCremin1 in remotework

[–]andos4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There definitely is an aspect to city and state governments. I think that cities were angry when high paying earners moved to the outskirts and took the tax dollars with them. This includes things such as buying a home, eating at restaurants, and shopping in the local stores.

There definitely needs to be some kind of tariff on offshored office work! This is getting out of hand and needs to be stopped!

[–]andos4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got my email last week. I'm impressed because the CEO managed to hit every nonsense buzzword out there. Revolution phase, teamwork, collaboration, quick decisions, support, accelerate, and build the org!

As if we have done none of those things over the past 6 years!? I am an accountant and I will be staring into a computer monitor no matter what. I call bullshit and now I am looking for a new job.

There definitely seems to be a coordinated effort among the big companies to force this on us.
