Yeah, us public school kids either luck box into a decent job or you're fairly fubar.
Saw this posted on God’s Facebook page (which, if you don’t follow, you really should!
Some jerk attacking the idea that minimum wage workers shouldn’t be able to pay for cost of living, and gets absolutely DESTROYED.
I really, really wish people like this would just go away.
Was hanging out at a friend's house yesterday (they're a couple), and enjoy their company very much, and it's always kind of them to invite me, but lately the wife's gotten into personality tests and stuff, and it's just getting weird to me. I've taken a few tests of hers, under the auspices of fun and curiosity, but she actually kept the tests in a manila folder, and one of them in particular is this thing about your personality "color," so there was this whole conversation about, wow, that was really blue of you, I bet she's an orange, that's interesting that you're a mix of green and gold, etc. And it wasn't until today that I started to realize how strange that is. Played along and kept it light, but... I just feel super-weird about it now. It makes me want to spend less time with her, and we've been friends for a few years now without any speed bumps. The prudent move is to just offer a polite pass the next time she recommends one of those tests, but just feel sick to my stomach at the moment. I don't want to be limited or gamified by people who care about me. There's a strange power element to it that I'm not digging at all. "Now I can compartmentalize you." etc.
Yuck.
To me there’s little to no difference between that and “you’re such a Virgo. I don’t like Virgo’s”
Soon they're going to invite you to a dinner party if you catch my drift
What is it about world-altering cults that they always commit some sort of idiotic group suicide to achieve their ends? Is it because that way you never have to live with the disappointment of not altering the world? I guess that would be sort of an anticlimactic finish.
And so, the story of DaMU passed into legend.
I've been thinking on this deeply, and have come to the conclusion that cheesecake is the best type of cake/cookie/dessert ever invented.
Cheesecake > pie > cake > tart > cookies > gelato > icecream > frozen yogurt > doughnut > mousse > pudding > pastries > custard > jelly
Chocolate and candy are not comparable.
I'm surprised you have ice cream so far down the list. That would be neck and neck with something else for my #1.
Jelly sucks.
Count me in the pie>cake group, as well!
Give me a pie loaded with delicious fruits over a piece of cake any day.
Pie > cake, yes, that is a stone fact.
What kind of pie though?? When you think cake, you have barely any options; chocolate villain and maybe, red velvet if you're cool. You have a billion pie options to choose from and some pie is definitely not better than any cake. Example, lemon meringue pie is not better than any cake.
Ok, maybe I'm over-thinking this.
Lemon meringue is one of the best pies. You speak balderdash and lies.
Pumpkin, cherry, blueberry, apple, pecan, key lime, field berry, coconut cream, banana cream, sugar pie...
When it comes to cake I like vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream frosting.
Ok, you made my mouth water just reading "pecan"....... No cake has that effect.
Pumpkin Pecan Pie.
I'd put Mexican tres leches cake against any pie in the world.
Well, I classify brownies as cake, so there is a big plus. Not to mention carrot cake, mud cake, banana bread (it's cake, don't fool yourself), gingerbread (ditto!), red velvet, muffins and cupcakes (all cakes, people!) etc. If anything, cakes get a raw deal. Yes, pies are more various and just better, but cakes are not to be sniffed at.
