I would like to call this man a relative. I’m out of grandpas anyway, so there would be no hurt feelings.

The trick is to wear them just right. Not too loose, not too restricting.

She sounds like a real teacher. Nice.

I was just scrolling to see if anyone had mentioned them yet. If you hadn’t, I would have.

Huh. Even if he set a cooking timer (or something) to go off every 15 minutes, I still can’t see him keeping it up for eleven days straight.

That’s a good way to look at it.

Nooooooooo! Keep doing weird stuff!

Trusting the government

So disheartening. There was never a good reason for this to be an issue in the first place.

You can’t hate yourself into being a better person (I’ve tried).

This sentence alone is god-tier advice. Granted, some people don’t need it, but the people who do REALLY need it!

Wow. I just came here to read the replies, because I have no advice to offer. OP should print yours out. It’s fantastic.

It might finally wake up some of those who are skeptical already. Unfortunately, several media outlets would portray them as domestic terrorists. The Trump administration would refuse to provide evidence, and ignore any court orders ruling that they do so.

Fox News would call them “traitors”. At least some of them would have their personal information mysteriously leaked. Homes would be vandalized. Jobs would be lost.

There would be no consequences. Life would continue as “normal” for most of us.

How did the pictures turn out?

Five sentences is less than I was imagining. I’ve been glad to see that you’re getting a lot of good, helpful advice. Definitely go with one of those if the problem persists. Good luck!

First of all, I never use that flavor packet. It’s a ridiculous amount of sodium.

To keep it quick and easy, I’d use garlic powder and/or chili flakes.

Edit: pepper, too. Pepper mills are inexpensive, and fresh ground pepper is MUCH better.

Yes, definitely, but I’d fly on it if it was some kind of obligation (for example, part of my job). I’d talk about it with the person responsible, though, and help find other options for the future.

When I see greentexts posted here, I play along with them because it’s more fun that way. With this one, I don’t feel like I have to play along. I wouldn’t be surprised if it was true.

I’ll admit I’m often verbose in my own chats about technical issues.

Maybe they’re too busy to search your messages for the relevant information. Treat your fellow employees with the same degree of courtesy that you want from them. Respect their time and learn to get to the point quickly. See if that reduces or eliminates the chatbot responses you get.

Exactly. If the headline is garbage, I assume the story is, too. Real journalism that’s worth reading doesn’t need to resort to clickbait.

Okay, I get it. I think you’re right.
