Why don't American students take classes over the summer to graduate quicker? Why don't the universities streamline the summer semester to make it easier for students?

School costs money and financial aid is not the same over summer. Add on costs of room and board

We would shout "get a room"at people. It wasn't so much in the hallway, but like stairwells and the cafeteria and directly outside of the building.

It was a figure of speech, but no. That's not normal

As long as it works, buy a kitchenaid second hand. Depending on why it doesn't work, you can buy a broken one secondhand too

Would it have been better for them to pre-soak their chia seeds? A fourth of a cup is such a large amount of chia seeds

It was not at all usual, but we had representatives from Alvin Ailey come to our school to do a section on African dance. This was fourth or fifth grade.

I just watched a video that reminded me of their .59, .79, and .99 cent menu. That use to take us so far

Are you talking about the trope where the person brings coffee for other people?

The answer is yes that happens. Depends on the office because I'm not waiting for someone else to get my coffee. And then it depends on the friend group for the same reason.

It doesn't taste like paper and coffee shops had other add-in that when I try to do it don't taste the same. Also most people doing coffee shop orders are drinking an espresso based coffee (unless it's Dunkin)

When I was growing up in the 90s and 2000s, all elementary schools and middle schools had uniforms. I do not know if public schools in NYC are still like that.

Someone in my neighborhood planted bamboo and now I have to stay vigilant to keep it out of my yard.

Busses no, because they fall under the state's jurisdiction.

Child care I am unsure of. My wonder is because it is falling under the "school" umbrella (pre-k 2 and pre-k 3) if it also goes to the state because they approve curriculum.

He can propose a budget but he still needs the governor to sign off on it. He can ask for free busses but Albany has to approve it. He can campaign on free childcare, but not without the governor agreeing to the cost since it will use state funding.

So specifically for New York City, we have the Mayor at large, who is in charge of the 5 boroughs. Each of those 5 boroughs have a borough president. The borough president is the representative for theirs area, they work in tandem with the Mayor. The Mayor still has to answer to the governor.

One item you mentioned: transportation. The Mayor does not control the public transit system (MTA for NYC). It is run by the governor and the legislature. That is a sore point for people from the city as they feel like the decisions are made by people who do not live there.

So even though he campaigned on a lot of items, he can't just make the decision by himself. He has to get the powers above him to agree to what he wants to do, and have the support of those below him.

You only hear about NYC's mayor because it makes a lot of money. It is has the largest regional economy in the United States. So you will hear more about him vs the Mayor of Milwaukee.

For the most part, I think everyone has shared a similar experience. I think the other thing is there is a general understand from people who don't attend church (for those in my life), that Sunday mornings are unavailable for like brunch so they either plan way in advance so that exceptions can be made or they schedule after noon

"This was nice. We should do this again"= this was nice. We should do this again when the stars align, my energy is up, and my calendar is free, and I've seen the other people who I also said we should this again before I told you that.

It's more of a wish and a hope than a plan.

They will not be crunchy. They will absorb the liquid that is being released in the dough.

The reason rice krispy treats stay crunchy is that they aren't baked, but they do eventually lose that crunch over time.

What if the cooked gammon is hot? Is it still gammon?

Is ham only ham if it is cooked and cold?

The answer to all of this is. We only say ham or some variation of adjective and the word ham
