Insipid

Oh God. I asked cause I know you're a single black mother. The rate of European children being born out of wedlock is not common knowledge to most Americans. I've lost interest now.

I mean, you just seem to have a vendetta against the concept of marriage. I know of Indian women with highly professional careers in arranged marriages. They don't live in a nuclear household though; their inlaws or parents typically help with domestic duties. I know the situation is different with black households, so I won't comment. I will ask, how do you feel about most black Americans being born out of wedlock? Did you know in European countries where women have many rights like Iceland and France, most children are now born out of wedlock too?

Sigh, I don't wanna be an ass here, but don't play dumb. You know why you said that. Own it.

Oh dear.

I'm gonna make an assumption here: I think you're talking about the shitty people in your life mistreating you and some of them are taking advantage of Ohio's recent marijuana laws. Stoners are a diverse bunch of people (no, I am not one). There are neurodivergent people who medicate with marijuana and are pleasant to be around.

I don't openly discriminate against the visibly disabled. I try to treat them decently, but sometimes I am very uncomfortable. When I worked at Starbucks, I had a balding guy in a Spiderman costume trying to talk to me about video games. It was very clear something was off with him, but I was nice.

It depends on the disorder and the individual. People with ADHD and good treatment can live fairly normal lives. People on the far end of the autistic spectrum will probably never have normal lives.

Just to test and see if he would ever snitch. He didn't, ever.

Efficiency, I guess. Weekends are obviously primetime, so it makes sense to take the slowest business day of the week off. Nothing special about Mondays in Asian culture.

It's ok, ghostrek. You could have reported me for all those times I had you involved in group messages involving fugg's hooha, but you never did. You deserve credit.

Why do all my favorite Asian run businesses have to be closed on Mondays? I was in the mood for takeout hibachi. 😥

I have a few Indian and Muslim friends and I noticed something they say that may sound redundant to contemporary Western ears: love marriage. Arranged marriages are still common in their social circles. When you think outside of the whole courting bullshit to find a lovemate, marriage makes much more sense. For most of human history, people had short lives, didn't move far from home, and had tighter knit communities. Marriages based on love in the West started gaining popularity around the start of the Industrial Revolution and coincidentally the Romantic art period. With people complaining about online dating and the worldwide population projected to decline due to decreased fertility rates, perhaps we'll need to develop new schools of thought to address this issue.

Western PA Same heat advisory as you

wow you made this thread a few hours after the heat wave advisory ended ok

Bet that Shrek candle smells better than

Palak paneer and chicken tikka masala at the max spice level. I finally don't run to the bathroom anymore. I guess you can train your digestion to handle high levels of spice. I wonder if it's changed my body odor . . . oh well.

Edit: Forget it, too foul.

wow

Poor "Things" was a good movie. Yeah, I'm not really trying today.

On the observation deck on the Empire State Building in the background.

So Denmark banned the Korean Buldok ramen for being too spicy. I have some in my pantry. I think I'll go eat it now.
