  • We should be able to legally have a different name just for work for better work/life separation

  • I have always told work people that I prefer to be called a different shorting of my name then the one I do prefer. Like if I was Robert I would tell work I prefer Bob instead of Rob.

  • US imposes a 17% duty on fresh Mexican tomatoes in hopes of boosting domestic production

  • Ah yes good old American tomatoes, with no undocumented labor, only $20 a pound.

    A quick look says about 70% of tomatoes are imported.

  • Honestly buy something that is good quality but doesn't have stupid shit, do I need my washing machine and my toaster talking to each other? No but the stripped down no frills ones are normally built to be as absolutely cheap as possible.

  • Lol, considering I heard it all the time growing up in the 80s you might be a bit off on your assessment.

    I grew up in a middle class suburb where the it was used as an insult kinda like " poor people are poor because they are stupid"

    She grew up in the Ozarks and they used it more as a " we got ways to make do"

  • Pretty sure this is true for all modern washers, ours is top load and it says leave door open when not in use.

  • I'm not saying it is the case in your situation but sometimes very old appliances are so inefficient that it makes sense to replace them on energy savings alone, we had a fridge that I put a meter on to see what it cost us to run, it was a little over $100 more per year then the larger one I was thinking of buying So if this new one lasts 10 years or so it will have paid for itself.

  • This is my mother in law to a tee, she buys second hand washing machines on craigslist for $100 - 200 they last about a year and she buys a new one. Always complaining about "planned obsolescence". I keep telling her "no one is selling a good used washing machine, they had problems with it and got a new one" Meanwhile she criticizes me for spending $700 on a washing machine we have had for 10 years now.

    She has a saying "poor people have poor ways" which she thinks means that when your poor you work with what you have, I have told her it is an insult that means poor people are poor because of their actions and decisions.

  • What are your grammar bugbears?

    Jump

  • When people pretend they cannot understand a sentence becuse of a grammatical error.

    If you honestly can't parse out what a person is trying to say because they left out a comma or misspelled a word or God forbid used the wrong "their" perhaps you need to work on reading skills.

  • No but I told my wife and she stopped talking to me, so I figured everyone should know.

  • I refuse to take any calls from robot, i've had Dr offices say "we tried to call you" and I reply "no you didnt you had a robot try to call me and I ain't got time for that shit", of couse "ain't got time" is relative, because I am mostly just digging holes in mine craft.

  • Ive got a version of that on my phone, but its just me rejecting every call that isn't in my contacts list.

  • If you have cut off mainstream music streaming, how do you discover new music or artists and songs like what you're listening frequently?

  • White House releases Amb. Mike Huckabee's text to President Donald Trump

    Jump

  • I'm not saying this is true but, if you wanted to enter a war in Iran this text would be good to release a few days before our embassy in Israel is hit by Iranian missiles. Not saying it will happen but if Huckabee is a victim of that attack someone should check if his body has been frozen.

  • TIL Erica Chenoweth et al. studied over 323 movements and found that in aggregate, nonviolent civil resistance was far more effective in producing change

  • Every country in the world was started with violence and has been held with the threat of violence, your statement is a pretty nothing.

  • Have your parents ever said something so unhinged that you’re just left standing there like🧍‍♂️?

  • Like he'll it ain't. Almost every Christian sect teaches that women are "less then" ,there may not be a direct quote in the book saying woman are not real people. But the teachings of the churches most definitely leans that way.
