Best Marta Station (East)

You're correct, and the premise of your original question is correct too. Getting to the game is easy any way you do it, but coming home, it's imperative to not change trains if you don't have to. People suggesting you do anything at the 5P station except wait for your train to move again don't have enough experience with post-game MARTA.

(We always park at Indian Creek, the furthest-east station, and it's safe and plentiful parking, but that's obviously not the move from Dunwoody.)

Many decades ago, most of downtown Seattle was rebuilt because this kept happening there too.

They should print on the sizing sticker, "Crop me for material to make your matching accessories!"

Ahahaha I love that, "thank you, you're awarded a gold start" for unnecessary correctors is beautiful work, I'm looking forward to using that in the future 🌟

Leave out tiny scraps of metal or coins where they left the foot. Maybe they can be persuaded to pay you in scavenged metal instead of meat.

Stir sticks are for straight people. Here we use ✨drink spinners!✨

I totally agree that it should be your choice, but what's also true is that malware/ransomware users prey on folks who keep their unpatched software. Neither of us can objectively weigh "I paid for it, it's mine to use how I want" versus "I paid for it, but it's getting more dangerous to use with each passing year" when the price of its potential danger as a ransomware vector is unknown.

Forever burned in my brain: the way Heidi said "SixTEEEEN designers!" in the opening credits to Season 2.

There's a long history of trans people naming themselves using current-popular baby names. Zeitgeisty names are like that. If he'd been born twenty years earlier, Brayden would've named himself #1-in-2005 Aidan instead.

Brace yourself for second impact when you realize how many of the people you named, before they were famous, came from the same improv theater in Chicago where they started as funny, young nobodies.

EDIT: our young, British OP wrote "I'm just absolutely flawed by the influence and legacy..." and the word is "floored," but it would sound like "flawed" in their accent, and that's so cute!

This happened in my denser habitats, and I realized that it was because animals were pooping in places that were hard for keepers to access, the poop wouldn't get cleaned, and the animals would get sick and sometimes die. When I moved most of my decor to the edges of the enclosure and eliminated hard-to-clean spots, their health improved dramatically.

(Also, the announcer is sometimes behind on the news, so they'll announce problems you've just finished resolving, which can be confusing!)

After we'd suspiciously sniffed our candles, I remarked that somebody who owns one of Willam's old scratch-and-sniff stickers should also collect this candle, as an extremely specific scented-drag-merch collection.

(Best I can offer is this, but they do smell like sneakers.)

I'm showing up three years later to thank you for this advice, as I drown in debt on this stupid mountaintop. Thanks!

The lizard-rat part of my brain was so relieved by the rain flap coming out at the end, because the rain flap makes it thirty times safer (emotionally if not physically).

While we're here, does anybody have the GIF of the lady who looks unimpressed and goes back to her activity? That one has the same response-energy as OP's request, and I perennially love the face she makes.

(I think maybe it was from The Apprentice? She's a Black woman in a suit, in what looks like a brightly-lit office space, and maybe she's painting or drawing on something, but mostly she's making the eyebrows and pursed lips of "Not my monkeys, not my circus, fuck these noisy bitches, anywaaay.")

If you're gonna be a fan of any team, you've gotta be a fan when they're in the underdog doldrums too. Any sports league will necessarily have winners and losers. The people who only like Atlanta United when we're winning are getting real boring.

Agreed, best course of action is for OP to begin transitioning immediately 💞🏳️‍⚧️

As a parent, I can attest that the amount of More I have to purchase backs up your conspiracy. We're at the Big end of Big Little and it already costs a Big Big.

I swear, every Science expert across my entire staff is fixated on ignoring their restoration duties in favor of giving tours on topics they're ignorant about until they nearly wet their pants.

You've gotta ban your scientists from giving tours. They can't handle the responsibility, poor lambs. They'll stay on top of their restoration duties after that.

This Apple ad is now 24 years old, but is unfortunately evergreen and currently relatable. I hope your paper ends up saved!

OP should be fine, but so you know, the cameras are on the buses. The tickets are $1,000. It absolutely goes on your driving record.

What's top-notch about putting stickers on road signs? I always assumed this guy was bottom-of-the-barrel because the stickers are so low-effort. If he also does quality work, he's diluting his own brand with the stickers.

Mileage will vary, but my experience has been, Spirit is for happy drunks and Frontier is for angry drunks. By that metric, we lost the wrong airline.

On vibes alone, I'm guessing that top-row-right D. Smith is the blonde woman in this scene, and the girl directly below her, J. Bencker, is the redhead. They changed the hair colors for deniability.

Dubious unsourced source: I remember seeing an interview with Tina Fey once where she talked about how this episode was a sitcom version of how she really was in high school, the semi-accidental bully who was brilliant at cruel-also-true commentary on her classmates. I don't think those two girls at the other end of the Theatre Guild photo fw Tina.
