I feel you. That happened to me this year too. Suddenly.
Woman at the Register (to her friend, behind her): “Oh Shush”
Somali Cashier: “What? Did you just call me Daesh?” (Daesh = unpleasant name for ISIS or ISIL)
He repeated it three times, she was busy speaking to her friend, he finally let it drop.
Check out the Vionic brand. I have three pair and am exceedingly happy with them. Also, Dansko, but they’re harder to find at clearance prices. I use Amazon.
Bolding mine.
My food allergies mean that several popular vegan ingredients are off limits. Cashew-based vegan cheese, I’m looking at you. Walnuts, eggplant, various members of the squash family, you’re getting the stink-eye as well. :mad:
I went to a vegan street fair a while back, and while all of the booths had labels indicating if the food had gluten or nuts, I had to ask about eggplant or squashes. Got some weird looks - it’s not a common allergy. I still got plenty of yummy food to eat, but I had to be on my guard in a different way than in my regular non-vegan life.
I hate this, and I get extra-annoyed if there’s more than one pop-up. One per page is enough, thanks. I also hate the websites that automatically take you to another page if you scroll down too far. Sometimes I want to look at the links to other articles, and I might want to read something else. It’s like auto-play videos–I’m not sure why anyone would think it’s a good idea. I also hate ads that won’t let you scroll down the page–if you scroll down, it takes you right back to the ad. :rolleyes: And of course the page takes forever to load. :rolleyes:
I’m very sensitive to Soy, so very time someone flushes with enthusiasm about pushing Tofu, I’m giving them this: :dubious:
My husband is allergic to soy and 12 other common foods (dairy, wheat, tomatoes, yeast, garlic, pepper, chocolate, caramel, malt, peanuts…) His general line toward veganism is, ''I’d consider it, but what exactly am I supposed to eat?"
*mmmmm, cheeseless pizza
And I can vividly remember the day I realized that flip-flops were out for me as summer footwear – I need actual supportive shoes if I’m doing anything more than just walking around the yard.
Speaking of the yard, I was just out there harvesting cucumbers. Also, I now have one zucchini that seems to be thriving. Yay! Except that I seem to be horribly allergic to one of the varieties of cucumber vines that’s growing out there – my arm is covered in nasty, itchy welts all of a sudden. D:
This woman told me we are not a good match because I am not able to travel as much as her??
Just wait till you need glasses to find your glasses.
It’s coming! :eek:
Annoyed Antenna TV removed Family Ties at 10pm and replaced it with Barney Miller:mad:
Thanks for the pass, but I don’t think I deserve one. I overruled someone who feeds groups of people for a living. She told me that the mushroom burgers would be very popular and I didn’t believe her. Why the heck would someone pay a professional for their advice and not follow it? Because they are an idiot, that’s why!
For the record, I shared one with a friend. I thought that the grilled mushroom was great, but also thought that the ersatz sourdough was pretty lame.
For our next BBQ, I’ll order more grilled mushrooms, but I’ll also order real sourdough bread for half of them.
My closet is full of Skeetchers. IMO, Shape-Ups are butt-ugly shoes. The only reason I own 3 pair is because they are also the most comfortable shoes I have ever put on my feet. Skeetchers also makes high arch sandals and dress shoes. They tend to be pricey, but if you look online for coupons, you can often save up to 50% on the. AND returns come with free shipping.
Toooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo hot out
Totally understandable if she’s looking for a travel companion. That’s very important to some people, and if you can’t travel as much you’re not a good match.
I’ve been getting infractions from some mods on another forum for calling out misogynistic pieces of shit. “Personal attacks,” they call it. Calling a spade a spade is not a personal attack. So I’m stuck with said infraction for another week. :mad:
I didn’t like the tone of the conversation after the first five mins and if I ever get that tone again I will just hang up the phone. That is not how you get to know someone for the F
first time.
Excuse me, Trash Family. I am trying to enjoy one last beer at the TGI Fridays bar. Why do you insist on having your 5 loud kids sit right by the bar? SURELY there’s plenty of tables open all over the place. I don’t need to hear some toddler screaming I my ear and your idiot 5 year old jumping on the bar seat next to me staring at me while I’m trying to relax after a long day at work. A bar is an ADULT area; the restaurant area is for those who chose to have children.
BTW did I mention it’s 10:13 PM??? What the hell are you bringing small children out to a bar this late anyway??? I have 3 words for you: Chuck E Cheeses

Try a restaurant/bar that isn’t advertising itself as family friendly. If there are high chairs in the place the kiddos are just as welcome as you are.
Sounds to me as if she got to know you as well as she wanted to.
Yeah, when think of a place I might want a drink and relax after work, none of them have high chairs or booster seats available. My favorite right now is a Tapas bar.
