It’s always been to fly. Every time I blow out birthday candles, every time I fix my necklace chain, every time I blow away a fallen eyelash, every time I’ve thrown a penny in a fountain (oh how I miss the mall fountain!).

It never fucking works >:(

I see we hew to the Dan Quayle philosophy of spelling.

This gif is super captivating

Thank you! Tisanes are not tea. I will die on this hill.

Salted water boils at a higher temp vs. unsalted water - this is known as boiling point elevation. But I don’t know offhand (there’s a formula) how much salt would be required to meaningfully raise the boiling point.

That’s the spirit!

On the plus side, your son will likely have an amazing pension. His retirement is probably more guaranteed than yours!

Mmmhmm, yup, yeah, wait…wut??

I’m 42 and I regularly get carded.

Scumbag body wakes up at quarter after 5 for no reason >:(

It’s better than nothing but it could’ve been sooo much more comprehensive.

Like any place, there are pros and cons, and since I’ve never visited, I haven’t been exposed to enough to form a proper opinion. However, here are some of my thoughts:

• The culture seems to appreciate intricacy and beauty, with rich colors, complex spicing of food, and gorgeously detailed textiles. Minimalism seems anathema on an aesthetic level.
• The Indians I’ve known have mostly been very warm, kind, patient, pragmatic people.
• There is a worrying divide between the sexes, which IMO is unhealthy and contributes to sexism, sexual assault, and loneliness. I don’t get it because you guys invented the kama sutra!
• I’m not sure why this is, but there seems to be a huge tolerance of unsanitary conditions. We’ve all seen footage of people wading in horribly polluted rivers, or beachfronts covered in trash and human poop, or filthy public bathrooms covered in feces or period blood. Same goes for unsafe conditions - massively overloaded trains, deadly chaotic traffic, etc.
• It seems to me that it must be hard to get ahead in a country with so many people because there’s a massive amount of competition, plus limited opportunities. I think this is why Indians are some of the hardest working people I’ve ever met, and also why some of the Indians I’ve known are willing to undercut the next guy to get ahead.

TBH that would absolutely be worth $2700 to me.

Yeah dude I have dry eyes. A 3-month supply of my eye drops is $2700 out of pocket, but there’s this magical card that makes it zero. WTF.

We could call it the Trenton Makes. Or name it after the Raritan. Or call it the Chris Christie Calorie Bomb Special. Or we could call it The Great Adventure. Or call it something like The 6 and 7 (growing up in Trenton, you get both NYC and Philly channels on TV - for example, Philly 6ABC was on 6 and NYC’s ABC was on 7).

I stink at naming things.

He’s not a New Jerseyan. He’s from Staten Island. They’re all fucking bennies.

Signed - New Jerseyans who hate our state being associated with those people.

Agreed, this helps but it isn’t a real solve

TV, not a movie, but Spike from BTVS. I mean, come on!

Wow…I’m not sure anyone could beat Dana Scully in my book.

Charisma Carpenter could come close though!

She was perfect the way she was. I hate that she let Claire give her a makeover.
