And the blue area is definitely "commute by boat", btw.

Anyone going that fast on a bike IS a motorcycle.

It's spammy.

Because it is the duty of parents to support their children, and this is desirable for the purposes of a stable society, and the purpise of law is to protect the stability of society?

I've had friends that did that. It's not something I would do; feels too much like "poverty tourism".

Completely different? Where do you think the word "ghetto" comes from?

That aside, OP specified American cities.

The whole idea of "the bad part of town" is inextricable from racism in the US, since most of these "bad parts" were created intentionally through practices like redlining, ghettofication, and white flight. I'd say "crack a history book" but this isn't even history yet, it's still ongoing.

There are three.

One plays "Brave Bells of Scotland" with the word "HELLO-O" yelled by a distorted female voice every so often.

One plays chiptune Christmas Carols all year round.

One plays a medley of old songs heavily featuring "Turkey in the Straw".

Paul is transported to another world where he doesn't know the rules and has to start over in a strange land. He befriends the locals, goes on adventures, becomes their leader, and eventually saves the planet.

What do we think?

 

Often I end up closing the list and immediately turning to self-soothing. And because there's no way to know in advance if a task on the list will give me anxiety, this often results in my list being not just unusable but unreadable, preventing me from doing or even remembering the non-anxiety tasks on the same list.

I'm not from California, so I don't know much about her; but this genuinely surprised me, especially how vicious and vitriolic the comments were. What's going on there?

Years ago in a thrift store, I found the perfect pants. The formal look of slacks but without the obnoxious vertical slit pockets. The stiffer fabric and sensible pockets of jeans but with a more genteel cut. I now know these were golf pants, and I wear them every day for work.

I have an upcoming wedding, semiformal, indoors. I'm not in the bridal party, nor am I escorting anybody in the bridal party. Can I wear golf pants to this event, or do I need to go buy slacks, or even a full suit? I'm not opposed to buying a suit, I just want to know what my options are.

Edit: The specific pants I wear to work are these but I might buy something a little nicer for the event.

The last FIVE times I've ordered a tuna salad sandwich at a diner, it's been just tuna, not tuna salad. This is very upsetting, and for the sake of preveserving my marriage I'm not able to just make tuna salad at home. Does anyone know where I can get one?

Places I know I can't get one:

  • Margie's Candies

  • Bridgeport Coffeehouse

  • Moon's Sandwich Shop (Western & Madison)

Please. It's been so long.
