  • What goes well with celery?

    Jump

  • Any of the "salads": Tuna salad, chicken salad, egg salad, potato salad benefit from a little added celery, both as an added flavor component as well as for a little texture and crunch.

    While I use celery in a lot of cooking, I tend not to be able to use an entire bunch of it before it goes bad. So, whenever I buy it, I use what I can, and then I chop the rest up and freeze it. Then I can pull out what I need for cooking purposes at my leisure, and I don't end up wasting much celery.

    All the options you mentioned for eating the celery raw are great. I'd also add cream cheese to that list.

  • If they couldn’t get a login reset sent to their email, then that’s broken.

    How is that in any way relevant to the situation I am talking about, though?

    If they have to create a new email account just for you, that’s bullshit, too.

    While I would agree, that also seems irrelevant to my situation. Tell you what, seems like there are some misunderstandings, miscommunications, and/or incorrect assumptions being made here. Rather than me having to completely rewrite what I wrote previously based on guesses about where those misunderstandings may lie and which incorrect assumptions are being made, let's just schedule a quick call.

  • I'm mostly this way, but not today.

    I had someone with an issue signing up for an account mention that they were not successful because when they tried to sign up, they got a message that they weren't eligible because there was already an account using that email address.

    I told them if they have a Gmail account, just use the + addressing feature, otherwise, just create a Gmail account.

    Someone else responded on the first person's account "But they don't have Gmail, so they can't do it."

    Let me tell you, THIS is a situation where a call is necessary. There's nothing I can type that will suddenly unravel the layers here and that won't lead to more layers being laid. It will be 100000000000000% easier and less time consuming to schedule a meeting/call and talk through this than it would be to continue this discussion in text format.

  • If you're hot, it's A-OK. If you're not, then it's creepy. This is how it do be.

  • Although modern horoscopes typically consist of life advice, it's almost certainly terrible advice because it was written by someone who failed at legitimate or useful employment.

    Jump

  • It's a comforting sentiment, but unfortunately, it's not really true.

    A lot of grifters grift not because they failed at "legitimate or useful" employment, but because grifting is easier, quicker, and better money for them (or has other tangible benefits) and they have no moral quandaries about what they're doing.

  • Who here cries at TV shows or movies?

    Jump

  • TV shows and movies are art. Eliciting an emotional response is kind of art's thing. Maybe not all art, but that's neither here nor there.

  • BREAKING: Elon Musk Calls For Trump to Be Impeached

    Jump

  • Because it's easy to manipulate the general public with these planned out and scheduled spectacles specifically developed to provide cover for all the truly terrible stuff that's being done just slightly behind the curtains while also giving both sides convenient cover from the other's failures.

  • Who is the alien and who is the predator?

    Trump is the sexual predator. Well they both are, but Trump's the one that's legally proven. Musk is the alien, because that's a term (ex: illegal alien) used to describe people who have immigrated to the USA.

  • I lost my job earlier this year. Trying to be optimistic and look on the bright side, I thought that at the very least, I'd be able to finally tackle my never ending to-do list. I was going to get so many things done and wipe that thing out.

    I have gotten a lot done, but my my to-do list is longer than ever. There's always something new that needs my attention. And a lot of the things on my list are recurring (monthly, quarterly, yearly, etc) so they just show back up on the list eventually anyway.

  • I know this is probably the worst place I could possibly pose this question, but I've been wondering, so here goes. But first some background.

    Probably within the past year or two, I discovered that FedEx started showing the name and a photo of the delivery driver on the tracking pages. Since they started doing that, I've noticed a very strong trend.

    Whenever my package is late, meaning it's marked as "Out for delivery" on a given day, but doesn't arrive, it's always the same driver. Now it's at the point where if I get a notification that my package is out for delivery and I happen to see that Bob (not his real name) is the driver, I know for sure it's not coming that day. Sometimes it'll come the following day, but most often it doesn't get delivered until a different driver shows up on the tracking page several days later.

    So, I'm wondering, when they know they don't plan on actually making a delivery attempt but they need to mark the package as out for delivery, do they just have a designated "fake" driver they assign it to? Is Bob even a real human?

  • Have you ever cried over a celebrity or complete strangers death, why?

  • Sure. Sometimes things touch your soul when you're open to it or vulnerable.

  • …why does that soap have a bite out of it?

    Because people see the picture and think "What in the world why does that soap have a bit out o fit" and then go ahead and click the link. And after doing various "experiments" over the years, advertisers have found that these sort of practices substantially improve engagement/click-through metrics and ultimately result in higher traffic / sales / ad revenue / etc.
