I will not simply add 10% (and definitely not the American 20%) to my menu price just because it's "what people do". Read more

May 15-20 seconds? Not very long; it should work very quickly. It works way better in walk-ins, though, for obvious reasons. Read more

You're going to have to troll a lot harder next time, sparky. Read more

I understand this perspective, even if I don't agree with it. Thank you. Read more

I got my first submission in that category in about five months this past week. Read more

I think that's kind of the point; you're actually going to be able to experience the joys of red onions now without being overwhelmed. This seems like it was designed exactly for you. Read more

Opinions differ; at the time of posting, I actually thought it was the strongest one here. Now, I'm not so sure — I'd probably give it to the drummer, because I enjoy that story more each time I read it. Someone commented that they prefer stories based more on cleverness and subtlety, and to be entirely honest, so do Read more

I play GTA because of peer pressure, then wonder why the fuck I'm playing GTA and who the hell thought Trevor was a good idea. Read more

If it's people who just want to shout about how AWFUL I am for ENCOURAGING this sort of behavior and some shit about FELONIES, then...no. Not so much. Not really all that interested in what those people have to say. Read more

I can totally respect this opinion. They're not something I do very often because I rarely find them entertaining myself (if it hadn't been for the last three sentences, I wouldn't have included this one, and last week's was just a throwaway sentence that wasn't even really the point of the story). There's a world of Read more
