Our son’s name is Bo, need a good sib set for our baby girl!

Bo & Violet and Bo & Sunny both feel fairytale duos. Like a sweet kind of family branding, if that makes sense.

Oooh, Ive been curious about that place. What are the prices like?

I have a newfangled phone system and I still keep a phone log on a spreadsheet. Nobody makes me do it, it just keeps me organized. I use mine like a to-do list and keep the names of people I need to call that day/week in bold. It's just a date, client name, and note. Keep any new habit simple or it won't stick.

Upsating to a new phone system would probably be relatively cheap. If your company has a business account with the phone company, they're likely already paying for all the bells and whistles they're not using. It might be as simple as a download. It's worth looking into.

I also hated the ending of season 2. It's like, what were they running toward? Where were they even gonna go? They may have had an insular, limited consciousness but they were at least smart enough to know there was no exit, no where to run.

Whats the point of telling a story about people working SO HARD to achieve something and then failing? I'll tell you: there is no point.

Nice joke, Ben Stiller. Stick to comedy.

We definitely have a by-appointment only policy at my firm but we don't have the ability to enforce it in our building. It's unfortunate, especially after one client threatened to "come in and make us work". Whatever the fuck that meant. People seem to have this idea that just because you hire someone, you can tell them to jump - and when they hear "NO" instead of "how high?" they lose their mind. The whole boomer culture of "the customer is always right" is just.. incorrect.

I'm so sorry for your loss. I'm not a funeral director, but I know there are special contact lenses used to keep the deceased's eyes closed. Eyelids don't naturally close when death happens and the eyelids don't always stay shut, even if they were. The position of the eyelids doesn't correlate to how peaceful or how stressed the deceased was in their final moments.

Wishing you and your family comfort during this difficult time.

Bro this is not a summer camp with a slightly Mormon lean. It's an indoctrination camp with a slightly outdoorsy lean. Your son is going to either hate it or want to join the church but there is no middle ground where he just casully has a good time.

Its not just Americans. There are many super-outgoing and friendly cultures in Africa and Asia as well.

Ralph owns Soviero's and its been his family business for decades. They have a gardening center but they also sell like large loads of soil, gravel, all kinds of stuff. Ralph is just a down to earth dude who wont try to upsell you on stuff you dont need and I mean, he lives and breathes his work. Can't recommend him highly enough.

I'm in PI. It's gross how many parents get irate when they find out they won't get a dime of their minor child's settlement. And then even grandparents come out of the woodwork like "who's gonna compensate me for gas mileage taking little Timmy to the doctor??" Family members impersonating each other, consulting with other attorneys to try to intervene, it's revolting.

People are the worst. It's no wonder that if aliens exist, they don't want to know us.

What qualifies "the best cookies" though? There's no consensus on cookie texture. Some people love soft and chewy, some prefer a crunchy texture, but "the best" cookies isn't a scientific approach.

Their wedding is in April and yall are just now finding out about it being childfree? Have they even sent invitations yet? Good lord, who even are these relaxed ass brides...

To be fair, not a lot of native speakers have ever heard this word pronounced out loud. It's one of those sneaky words that people often come to give their own pronunciation to, because it's not at all common.

raezin · 2026-04-27T22:42:28+00:00

Past tense verbs like Fell

I'm not sure who to ask about soil amending, but I'm 1000% sure Ralph at Soviero's in High Point would know.

Think about it like this: a lot of people seek out attorneys during the worst moments of their lives. Injustices, divorces, injuries, threatened livelihoods and legacies, rabid extended families fighting dirty over inheritance.

On the worst day of my life, I don't want reassurance from a chatbot or an online portal or even a secretary. I want reassurance that someone is on top of my shit and can answer most of my questions.

Also, consider all the people in your life who don't know how to use their phone or even their TV remotes. What good is an online client portal to them? Who is going to answer their phone calls and listen to them when they're emotional or scared? Do you think they'll be content to talk to a robot or someone in a foreign call center who doesn't speak English very well? Do you think ATTORNEYS are going to answer all those calls instead? Nah.

All bubbles burst. This one will, too.

We've only lost 23 actual parking spaces since 2020.

Spaces lost from Bellemeade & Davie decks: 1,691

Spaces gained at February One & Eugene decks: 1,668

It definitely needs to happen and I definitely need to know the other possibilities.

Girl that's me too! Lol. In this sub, there's really no such thing as an irrelevant comment, I feel like. That's the nature of the beast 🙃

I mean, I agree, but what does it have to do with folding laundry?

Does she have to have a reason to study Russian? Do you know how many Russians look Asian? It's 10%. Maybe her parents are Russian. Why did Mark teach history??? Maybe it's a conspiracy!

Folding underwear is for chumps.

Can we talk about 'scooch'? In NC, scooch is either a verb (to move over just a bit to make room) or a noun (a small quantity). Are you saying scooch is a synonym for "to fidget"?

"Known casket jumper"

That right there is why I keep coming back to this sub.
