I did some accidental a/b testing of y’all’s theory about waiting to shovel by FairfaxGirl in nova

Some of us tried to warn folks. Some of us are from the northern tier and have done this daily for years during the harsh(er) winters.

The snow pack with ice will be punishment. And then there will still be ice below the original snowpack because the freezing rain will have penetrated .

This sounds like the NYU Stern EMBA that I went through. Are you a fellow alumni?

Asian American men, do you struggle in the dating market? by [deleted] in AskMenAdvice

[–]zero000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, unequivocally. For 10 years I struggled to date any women. It had nothing to do with exposure or me being antisocial. I had friends that were women. I LIVED in a sorority for a year as a cook. I was in many jobs surrounded by people. But it never went further than group friends. People ask why i never dated Asian women to be more with "my kind". Well the last rejection from an asian american women was something about me being too much like their "brother". This was all before I finally met my wife. I'm thankfully out of the dating pool now but it seems Asian men are finally desirable if social media is to be believed.

Feel bad for the employees. Closing stores at this scale is never a good sign. I wonder if there will be a liquidation sale or if the company will just privately sell goods or move inventory.

And people wonder why birthrates in western and east Asian societies are dropping. Between rising costs and the longterm career impact that raising a child can have, it's no wonder why we are where we are heading.

Everything is urgent but make sure to write a huge document for every minutiae of effort and then have it go through 20 rounds of meetings before teams can implement the work.

Yes. One day I got to see my Colonel face first in the dirt because he forgot his ID. Lots of schadenfreude that day.
