  1. Double doors (side by side). If I am approaching from the outside, and you are approaching from the inside, we can each use the door to our right and pass each other at the threshold. Don't stand there looking at me like I am in your way, or worse yet, scoot through MY door that I have just opened without so much as a "by your leave". Use your own damned door.
  2. But it would still be " him and others"
  3. I defy anyone to top my day. We are having 97% humidity. Today at 4:00 am, a lightening strike knocked out electricity to a large part of the city, the worst part being that my window fan went off : ( Power finally came back on mid-morning and I went on about my day. I found myself at Walmart, god help me. A few weeks ago, I picked up a random sports bra, and, it turns out, it's really great. So I went back to that location and bought the only one they had, and I have been going to their other locations to find more. Today, I found one, without a box, at the back of a shelf. It was the only one they had. I scanned the tag, and it said $0.01. I figured that couldn't be right, so I tracked down an employee, a teenage boy working in lingerie. He had no clue, but figured he couldn't sell it to me at that price since it was clearly an error. He found a coworker, another teen boy. He was equally confused. So they called the department manager, a man. So I'm discussing my bra needs with three strange males. I didn't care at that point. The manager said it was "defective" and had to be returned, he couldn't sell it to me. I said "I don't see any defect, I'll happily pay you the penny, or even more, and save you the trouble." He couldn't do that, he was really sorry, go pick out another one and he'd give me a discount. Men do not understand that all bras are different, and if we find the one we want, we don't want another..... I told him I had no electricity and hadn't had coffee yet, don't mess with me..... I should have just taken the thing to the self-scanner, paid the penny and left without involving an employee.
  4. Don't forget that YouTube "star", shining example of Christianity, Sam Star.
  5. I still don't believe Josh actually bumped uglies with anyone. Oh, I think he wanted to, but: There are a multitude of men on AM, why would any woman choose Josh? And if she did choose him based on his profile, wouldn't meeting him turn her off? And if a woman did go through with it, she was either too stupid to recognize the blackmail potential, or Josh has been paying her hush money since it happened.
  6. I've never heard JJ say that what a party says is hearsay, because it is not. She can be a little wishy-washy on police statements. Essentially, what the police officer says to someone is hearsay. What a police officer records in their report falls within the business records exception to the hearsay rule. Done practising law for today.
  7. The mother was a party, what she said to her son is not hearsay. What the police said would be hearsay.
  8. It's like cocaine, the first one's free.
  9. Well, they did share the same taste.
  10. Rick Steves' travel is Wonderbread. It's safe and boring, like those horrible 14 Countries in 21 Days tours, so people can say "I've been to Europe." I'm a self-directed and self-sufficient traveller. I've spent exactly one day on a guided tour and hated it.
  11. Come on, stewedsquash, we can be bezzie mates and eat our way across London.
  12. I wasn't paying much attention to Travis, but wasn't he 23 with a 7 year old???
  13. That's Kappacasein, and you should get the grilled cheese sandwich with onion chutney. I would rather stick needles in my eyes than rely on Rick Steves' travel advice. It's the type of safe, boring travel my grandparents would do. Complete with white sneakers and fanny packs.
  14. Jinger does look scary thin - not body shaming, just commenting that it is a dramatic change from the way we have seen her look her entire life. Perhaps she is following Jessa's pre-wedding diet because there is a courting in the offing?
  15. Perhaps I'm just bragging here - my boss, who is a serious bitch, starts a 2 week vacation tomorrow. It's kind of sad how happy this makes the rest of the office. Sorrynotsorry
  16. A friend and her teenage daughter visited for the weekend. We are all good cooks, so we traded home made treats, plus we spent a lot of time eating out - cupcakes, ice cream, fancy coffee. She brought a coconut cream pie that got tipped on the drive, but I just scraped some out of the container and it was awesome. Later tonight I will warm up the leftover spaghetti and meatballs from the restaurant we went to last night.
  17. Nope, the default assumption, regardless of the gender, is that the person is a non-relative until the patient says otherwise. It's up to the patient to say "this person is my "X" and you can speak about my health in front of them".
  18. Glynnis!!!
  19. See, I don't understand the fascination with boneless, skinless chicken. I posted a while ago that I thought there had been a nuclear event causing mutated chickens, because I couldn't find chicken with bones in the stores. I never buy boneless chicken.
  20. Chief of General Surgery.
  21. Hey, Taeolas, Nova Scotia giving you a wave!
  22. Hey, parent: When your toddler darts out into the parking lot of a shopping centre, it is not the time to have a philosophical discussion about choices "You can either hold mummy's hand, or have mummy carry you." It's the time to be the damned parent and pick the child up.
  23. http://www.cbc.ca/news/arts/christopher-hyndman-co-host-of-cbc-s-steven-and-chris-dead-at-49-1.3178833 Chris Hyndman, of CBC's "Steven and Chris" was found dead in an alley near the home he shared with his on and off screen partner, Steven. Circumstances sound really strange.
  24. You mean his life.
