Thank you!!! They've been driving me crazy!

Score! :flowerforyou:

Haha! I'm glad he's found someone to clip his toenails for him! He's been pestering me about that...

I concur. These type of posts are becoming boring. I just click on them to see who is attempting to be sarcastically witty.

I've gotten a lot better about the excess peanut butter on the knife, etc... and I am that rare mother who does not eat her kids leftovers... I'm not a germophobe, but kiddle slobber and snot are not what I want to be putting in my mouth. Having said that, I cook everything at home. Pre-packaged foods are few and far…

That sucks, OP! Mine is set back behind a bunch of office buildings, adjacent to a town park with paved foot and bike trails, picnic areas, open field areas and some woods. However, the road the office building are situated on have myriad restaurants and drive-thrus, so I imagine people coming from that direction have more…

That's a great price. Our gym has all the same amenities (pool, land and water classes, sauna, hottub etc...) but it's more expensive. For me, my husband and our two kids who use the daycare, it comes to $121 a month. I love it though- there's a ton of machines, plenty of weights, it's not intimidating in any way... it's…

OP, I'm experiencing the same thing. I haven't really lost anything in last two weeks since I started doing more intense strength training workouts and taxing my muscles. It is frustrating to step on the scale and see the same number, or to see the scale go down and then back up the day after a training session. However,…

Jealous of you too. Roger Waters alone, or Pink Floyd. I've always been somewhat partial to David Gilmour's voice...

Jealous. Also, no one has said it yet, but I'd be jealous of anyone who has seen Bowie live. I have a copy of the '97 Reality Tour, and I wish I'd been a little bit older, enough to appreciate him at that juncture!

Oooh, I bet that was awesome!

The Flaming Lips, hands down. It was The.Most.Amazing.Musical.Experience.Of.My.Life. Steven Drozd and Wayne Coyne are some of the most brilliant artists out there... on par with Roger Waters, who's a friggin genius. Can't wait to see them again. And again. And again...

My issue isn't while I'm bleeding- it's the 7-10 days beforehand. I get cranky, emotional, irritable and crave every salty and sweet thing in sight. The moment aunt flo gets here, I'm good. I know this, it's been this way since my teens, and what makes it more bearable is working out. I don't often get cramps, but when I…

Then your mgmt is doing it wrong. Customer service is key, and even the best servers can only properly take care of so many people at once. While it's not you, the server's fault, the customer shouldn't have to suffer. After having owned a restaurant and managed a staff of eight servers (we were a small, family restaurant…

totally OT, but every time I see this topic come up on my top five, Ween's Banana's & Blow pops in my head.

Peeves: slow people who stay in the left (read: passing) lane on the interstate; seeing the word 'women' used in the singular... Phobias: Wasps/Hornets... angry flying insects terrify me Oddities: the order of things matters, ie hygiene- floss first, then pre-brush mouthwash, then brush, then post-brush mouthwash, then…

A gratuity is ordinarily only added to large parties (and the thought process behind it is, they often split the bill into separate checks, and it's easy to end up getting jipped) but I have experienced servers (and had a girl who did this- she didn't last long in my establishment) who would throw a grat on a smaller table…

On the floor, this used to piss me off. You tip on the service, not the food! Your entree price was the cost of the food, the cook etc... if you have a real problem with the food, you take it up with the manager. You don't take out your frustration on the server. It's like shooting the messenger.

I always trained my staff to say "I'll be right back with this", regardless. Credit cards are not always visible, some people use large bills or travelers checks... by using this statement, you give the customer the opportunity to tell you the change is yours without being presumptuous. It may or may not register with…

Oh God, where do I start? As a former restaurant owner (co-owned with my parents) and FOH manager, I have plenty of gripes. The biggest pet peeve: Poor service- there is no excuse. And by poor, I mean a server who just doesn't give a rats behind. I'm observant and can tell the difference between an excellent server who is…

Why not? And since there's really nothing I can add to the conversation that wouldn't be redundant...

Old school NES... Mario Bros, Zelda, etc... failing that- chocolate.

what kind of metal defines if you should or shouldn't...

Oh, and

I'm made fun of by my brother because

Oh! lol, I got those! (tempted to use a gif, now that I know how. don't make fun- i'm nearly always behind the

Idk, my reading of the OP's subsequent posts led me to believe she was entirely serious. If not, she's really good, cause I have a fairly decent sarc detector...

Don't feel bad. I didn't know how to do it until earlier today... but I did use the search feature... and now I'm addicted to gifs.
