Shoe Review
"Love these shoes, very comfortable!!!"

I love LifeStride
"This is about the 4th pair I've bought. I can rely on the quality and most times the fit as well. I just about wear a pair of these everyday and they last quite a while. I always order a Wide Width, this time I did find that the strap rubbed a bit on my right baby toe, even with the Wide Width. This certainly won't stop me from buying more LifeStride shoes though."

Pitino could take 2nd school to title. An unranked could win. Final could be ACC preview.
Here is not your normal Final Four team anecdote. Nurses told Rick Pitino that the first time Kevin Ware cried, just before surgery, was as he watched his Louisville teammates talking about him on television.
This Final Four has faces now, one of them still in an Indianapolis hospital. So consider the many possibilities for Atlanta . . .
Pitino could go where no coach has gone before. Neither Wooden nor Krzyzewski nor Rupp. Nobody has won a national championship at two schools, let alone Louisville and Kentucky. That would be like a general winning a war for the North and the South.
The coach he could have to beat in the end is Jim Boeheim – the same guy he beat in 1996 at Kentucky, the same guy who once gave him a job, recognizing a phenom when he saw one. "That's why he was the first guy I hired when I got the job at Syracuse," Boeheim said Monday on a conference call. "I'm not stupid."
No. 9 Wichita State could become the lowest seed to play in a national championship game. And after this season, why not? "I don't think we're Cinderella at all," coach Gregg Marshall said. Well, yes you are. Might as well savor it. It'll sell a lot of T-shirts. Ask Florida Gulf Coast.
The lame duck Big East could take a thunderous last bow by having Syracuse and Louisville in the championship game. That'd be only the fourth time the same conference put both teams in the title bout, and first since the then-Big Eight's Kansas and Oklahoma in 1988.
It could also soon be an ACC championship game.
The Louisville players will say they want to win it for Kevin Ware.
Michigan will play six freshmen, but nobody will call them the Fab Six.
BRACKET BRIEFING: Unpredictability of Final Four
BRACKET: Updated with scores
Michigan's John Beilein could finally be recognized as the accomplished, if unheralded, coach he is. The nation could learn how he has never been an assistant in his 35-year career. How he has never been fired. How he grew up 120 miles from Jim Boeheim in upstate New York and once coached the Division II Le Moyne Dolphins, just down the road from Boeheim at Syracuse.
"I wouldn't suggest this route I took to anyone," he said Monday.
Beilein could finally beat Boeheim, who would occasionally show up to watch him coach at Le Moyne. Beilein is 0-9 against him.
At 68 years and nearly five months, Boeheim could become the second oldest coach to win a national championship, clocking in six months younger than Connecticut's Jim Calhoun in 2011. And three years older than Mike Krzyzewski, who became No. 4 on the list in 2010. This decade has been good to geezers.
Wichita State could become the first unranked team to win a national championship in 25 years, since fellow Sunflower Stater Kansas in 1988.
Michigan's offense, averaging 78.75 points in the tournament, could shred Syracuse's defense, giving up 45.75. Or vice versa.
Syracuse could be national champion despite shooting 38% in the regional championship, going 12 minutes without a field goal in the third-round game and losing a game in early March 61-39. In a season where the shooting has tanked in lots of places, that might be appropriate.
One day after the 20th anniversary of Chris Webber's infamy, all the Michigan players Saturday will remember how many timeouts are left.
Wichita State could become the first school from a non-BCS conference to win the national championship in 23 years. That means you, UNLV.
Louisville could be pushed to the end for a change. Its average winning margin in four tournament games is 21.75.
Michigan or Syracuse could become only the second No. 4 seed in history to win the championship, finally giving 1997 Arizona company.
Somebody will win in the final minute. Of the 64 games so far in this tournament, 40 have been decided by double figures. Only 10 by three points or fewer -- not all of them on Ohio State three-pointers, it just seems that way.
This season of constant unrest could end with the No. 1 of No. 1 seeds – Louisville – winning the championship. The guess is some of the net would go to Kevin Ware.
Or there could be one last surprise, when someone does to the Louisville men what the Louisville women just did to Baylor.

ORANGEVILLE-On a beautiful fall day, our husband, father, and grandfather, Milton Bland Tuttle, slipped peacefully from this world into the next surrounded by his wife and children.
Bland was born in Orangeville, Utah, on Nov. 27, 1923, to Milton Melrose and Essie Mable Tuttle. He married his sweetheart, Selma Sitterud, for time and all eternity in the Manti LDS Temple on Sept. 16, 1943, and they shared 66 years together. Together they had three sons, 10 grandchildren, 33 great-grandchildren, and two great-great-grandchildren.
Bland was a member of the LDS church and had a firm and unwavering faith and testimony of the gospel and of his Savior Jesus Christ. He served in many church calling including bishop, ward clerk, and stake clerk. Bland was proud to have served in the Manti LDS Temple with his wife for 13 years as an Ordinance Worker and Sealer, and had the privilege of sealing many of his grandchildren for time and all eternity.
Bland loved to tinker and could fix anything. He was strong and hard working. He put his shoes on in the morning, worked hard all day, and only took them off when it was time to go to bed. Bland shared a farm with his twin brother Blaine, and they worked side by side until Blaine's passing in 2007. Bland was honest and trustworthy, always willing to lend a hand and help whenever he could. He worked in the coal mining industry in Emery and Carbon counties for 43 years, and was a member of the UMWA.
Bland loved his family and spending time with them. We will all miss the fun times we had sitting on the patio or around the kitchen table.
Bland is survived by his wife, Selma; three sons: Paul (Charlene) Tuttle of Kaysville, Kevin (Karen) Tuttle and Mark (Dickcie) Tuttle, both of Orangeville; and one sister, Gloria (Norman) Patterson of Price.
He was preceded in death by his parents; three brothers: (infant brother) Roy Dean, Edwin, and twin brother, Blaine; and one grandson, Trever Tuttle.
Funeral services will be held Thursday, Oct. 22, 2009, at 11 a.m. at the Orangeville LDS Church (45 West 100 South). There will be a viewing Wednesday, Oct. 21, 2009, from 6-8 p.m. at Fausett Mortuary in Castle Dale, and on Thursday from 9:30-10:45 a.m. prior to the services at the church. Services are in the care of Fausett Mortuary. Family and friends may sign the guest book and share memories of Bland at www.fausettmortuary.com.

Chapter's out:
I thought that it was interesting that Daisy is just going to sit there waiting to be attacked. If I was playing, my first job would be to hide her somewhere less conspicuous and leave somebody to protect her, like Gokudera is doing for Shoichi.
Also, I think that Tsuna is a better defensive player than Gokudera, because of his greater mobility, and his X-Burner would be really good in a small enclosed location.
Also the Cervello... 10 years ago they were under the direct orders of the IX Vongola... Now they're "A branch of the Millefiore"... They're so annoying.
Oh well, good chapter... I'm curious to see Squalo's reaction to Yamamoto's fighting, and the Guardians in general.
Edit: BTW, I hate it when Mangakas mess up basic math... 100% - 99.99% = 0.01% not 0.001%... grrrrr...

Success of Egyptian Antiquities from the Louvre
Visit the exhibition website nga.gov.au/Journey (Requires Flash 8)

2 March 2007
The exhibition Egyptian Antiquities from the Louvre: journey to the afterlife closed at the National Gallery of Australia on Sunday 25 February 2007. This stunning exhibition was attended by 152,025 people. The exhibition gained momentum soon after it opened in November 2006, culminating with more than 10,000 visitors to the Gallery on the last weekend. This is the highest attendance at an exhibition at the National Gallery of Australia since Monet and Japan in 2001 which attracted 227,000 visitors.
"The winning combination of Egyptian Antiquities and the Louvre Museum, one of the five most significant Egyptian collections in the world, captured the public imagination and I am absolutely delighted with the success of the exhibition at the National Gallery of Australia," said Ron Radford, Director of the National Gallery.
"Visitors were particularly taken with the incredible craftsmanship shown in the 3,000 year old antiquities. There were many crowd pleasers, including the sarcophagus, and Canopic jars, but I think the most popular item in the exhibition was the small, beautifully preserved, cat mummy."
"What was also very pleasing for me was to see so many of the people who came to the Egyptian exhibition also taking the opportunity while they were here to look at the new permanent displays at the National Gallery."
A key event in the summer tourism calendar for Canberra, the success of the Egyptian exhibition is also the result of cooperative marketing initiatives with Australian Capital Tourism and the accommodation sector. With 63% of visitors to the exhibition coming from outside Canberra, the ACT economy benefited through direct expenditure of over $20 million.
For those who missed out on visiting Canberra to see the exhibition, images of some of the works and information about the exhibition will remain on the National Gallery's website at www.nga.gov.au. It will also be on display at the Art Gallery of South Australia, Adelaide from 21 March to 1 July 2007 and then at the Art Gallery of Western Australia, Perth from 21 July to 28 October 2007.

Fort Pocahontas was an earthen fort built and manned by hundreds of United States
Colored Troops under the direct command of Brigadier General Edward Augustus Wild.
The May 24, 1864, action resulted in a victory for the USCTs against an attack
led by Major General Fitzhugh Lee, Robert E. Lee's nephew.
New Documents!
A letter from I.P. Farmer, a soldier from the 143rd sent to the "The Buckeye State" newspaper on July 7, 1864 in New Lisbon, Ohio, recently given to me by Timothy Brooks who was the guest speaker at the last reenactment. This letter gives independent confirmation to the reciprocal action to the "Fort Pillow Massacre." It also mentions the raid on President Tyler's house.
"The infantry fighting was done principally by the black troops and nobly did they repel the slander that "Niggers won't fight." Men who were in the fight told me that they charged several times to the mouths of the cannon in a Rebel fort and had to fall back. At the fifth charge they carried the works. The fort was in plain view of where I stood and I watched the volumes of white smoke it belched forth all day. The last charge was made after dark and during the time the sides of the fort seemed to be a sheet of flame. In five minutes all was dark and silent. The blacks had carried the works and a well credited camp report says that its garrison, over 200 in number, shared the fate of the garrison of Fort Pillow."
A letter from A. R. Arter, a soldier in the fort has recently been acquired. This letter has tremendous impact on the current view of how USCT troops were viewed during the Civil War because is show that black troops were accepted and given honors if they performed. It also show that there a a response meted out for the 'Fort Pillow Massacre."
"meanwhile the negroes were repulsed
some 4 or 5 times and would rally until they finally succeeded in reaching
the top of the works. there the tug of war commenced. the Rebs yelling to
them to come on and they would make another Fort Pillow case. the
Blacks could not see it that way. on the taking of the fort the Blacks
murderd every Reb that was left supposing to be some 4 or 5 hundred...
The commander of the Confederate troops that attacked Fort Pocahontas was General Fitzhugh Lee, the nephew of General Robert E. Lee. General Edward A. Wild, who commanded the USCT troops, had only one arm and was a fervent abolitionist.
This battle secured the Union outpost and demonstrated that African Americans could fight with equal bravery. Construction was completed after the battle and the fort was named Fort Pocahontas. General Wild and his troops were later replaced with Ohio Pennsylvania, New Hampshire, New Jersey, and New York troops until the fort was abandoned in June 1865.
Black Soldiers like these troops from the 107th Infantry would never stand up to real combat, the critcs said; but the truth came out along the James River in the spring of 1864.This military installation did not leave surrounding Charles City County unaffected. Slaves fleeing their masters were sheltered and local residents suspected of Confederate sympathies were imprisoned inside the fort. Federal soldiers also plundered goods from abandoned houses, including President Tyler's home at Sherwood Forest Plantation. A letter written by Captain A. R. Arter at Wilson's Landing details the looting: "they brot [sic] in some very nice furniture . . . of the very costliest kind and destroyed the pyana [sic] & large looking glasses & such other stuff they could not bring in."
Reenactors from all over the East Coast, including the famous 54th from Massachusetts who starred in the movie "Glory," attend the reenactment each year.

Artist Statement
Award Winning Photography by Myles Kleinfeld
I take everyday objects and turn them into extraordinary images. The process of seeing any situation anew, whether I'm in a bar, at a parade or a yard sale, I re-interpret in terms of an abstract composition.
New digital technology enables me to manipulate the traditional boundaries of the medium and create colorful forms, abstractions and their relationship to society as I see them, digitally.
I utilize the latest Photoshop software and photographic imaging processing technology to create art that is completely digital, unique and very clean in every size.
I have developed a strong fascination with the technical processes of creating clean, saturated colors and how they can be displayed large and at their brightest in bold color.

News of a Mississippi newborn supposedly cured of an HIV infection has HIV advocates and researchers in South Carolina hopeful as well as skeptical.
The potential for the cure to change the standard of care for those infected would be especially welcome here in the South, where the highest death rate due to HIV occurs.
Following Valentine's Day and the shelves piled high with those heart-shaped boxes of candy, I have been thinking about the pleasure cacao trees have given the world.
The fruit of the cacao tree are large football-shaped pods, each containing up to100 seeds. Cacao seeds are the basis of all chocolate. The seeds, or beans, are very bitter, but the pulp that surrounds them is sweet and when it is allowed to ferment, the bitterness of the beans is reduced and they develop a heady chocolaty aroma.
Back in 1999 when Michael Burgess first began working at Hartley Funeral Home, little did he know one day he would end up owning and operating the business.
With a degree in Sports Administration from Limestone College, he worked in his field of study for about a year before his uncle Jerry Hartley offered him a chance to learn the funeral business. He accepted the job and spent most of his time maintaining the landscaping of the funeral home while learning firsthand about the business.
"Snow snow on the ground
Sun is sinking down down down
Trees trees covered in white
People gasp at the sight."
— Miranda Will,
"A Snowy Sunset"
Saturday , Feb. 16 we stood by the kitchen windows gasping and gaping as a surprise snowstorm swirled around us.
By 5 p.m. it seemed that we were in the middle of a blizzard with near white-out conditions.
By late Saturday afternoon, Feb. 9, the 20-yard metal dumpster between the Daughters of the American Revolution monument at Buford Battleground and the monument placed there during the 226th anniversary was full of brush and yard debris for the second time.
An inspection of the 2-acre property shows a few sawed-up limbs on the ground that wouldn't fit into the dumpster.
There are also several mounds of fresh-raked leaves on the back of the tract near a barbed-wire fence where cattle do what cattle do.
Would you like to spend an elegant evening in support of the arts?
On Saturday, Feb. 2, the Lancaster County Council of the Arts will host its biggest fundraiser of the year.
The 18th annual LCCA gala, entitled Art & Soul, promises an evening of dancing with silent and live auctions to support Lancaster County's art programs. The black-tie-optional event begins at 7 p.m. in the Bradley Arts and Sciences Building on the University of South Carolina Lancaster campus.
Nestled in the woods of Van Wyck, Carol Leedy weaves a basket in the shop across the driveway from her home.
For nearly 30 years, the 68-year-old Ohio native has been handcrafting reed baskets – from extra-small key holders to a three-basket storage unit – with homemade black walnut stain, her own dyes and embellishments like buttons and feathers. Her prices range from $12 to $100.
"Busy hands are happy hands," Leedy said. "It's a stress-breaker, and it keeps me from kicking the dog. I've always been very crafty."
Dennis and Susie Nichols carefully plan their landscaping to make sure there is something blooming year round at their home.
While that's easier said than done, the Nicholses stay on track. They plan their work and work their plan.
Right now, the mums at 1909 Sardis Road are slowly fading, but perky pansies are ready to claim the show.
Even a few summer annuals continue to have blooms, a sure sign the Nicholses give their plants plenty of TLC.
When it comes to decking the halls in advance of a holiday party, there's nothing quite as festive as creating homemade decorations with the family.
From handmade ornaments to shimmering trees, your party guests will catch that holiday spirit when they see the special décor created just for the event.
To help get you started, the inspiration experts at the Jo-Ann Craft Stores have shared the following holiday craft ideas.

Just not sure
"I just received my shoes and was so pumped for their arrival. I am less than thrilled after trying them on. They are cute. However, they are narrow and short. The sole support is awkward too. I haven't decided if I am going to keep them. They aren't horrid, but I could probably find a more comfortable flat for $40."

The Fund invests primarily in equity securities, principally common and preferred stocks, of companies with market capitalizations that fall within the range of the Russell 1000® Value Index. As of December 31, 2015, the range of the Index was $380 million to $439.7 billion, but it is expected to change frequently.
The Subadviser employs a fundamental, bottom-up research driven approach to identify companies for investment by the Fund. The Subadviser focuses on those companies that it believes have higher quality businesses that are undervalued by the market relative to what the Subadviser believes to be their fair value. The Subadviser also looks for one or more catalysts that may help the company realize that fair value.
The Subadviser seeks to identify higher quality companies by focusing on the following attributes:
The Subadviser then assesses the attractiveness of the valuation of those higher quality companies by analyzing a variety of valuation metrics, such as cash flow return on enterprise value, price-to-earnings, sales and free cash flow ratios, and break-up values, among others. The Subadviser then looks for potential catalysts for the company's business that could help unlock what the Subadviser believes is the company's true value, including:
The Subadviser may sell a holding if the value potential is realized, if warning signals emerge of fundamental deterioration, or if the valuation is no longer compelling relative to other investment opportunities.
Under normal market conditions, the Fund expects to invest in approximately 35-45 companies with at least 80% of its net assets, plus borrowings for investment purposes, in a portfolio of large cap equity securities. The Fund may invest up to 20% of its total assets in the securities of foreign issuers, including issuers located or doing business in emerging markets.
Market and issuer risk: Securities markets are volatile and can decline significantly in response to adverse market, economic, political, regulatory or other developments, which may lower the value of securities held by the Fund, sometimes rapidly or unpredictably. Additionally, an adverse event, such as an unfavorable earnings report, may depress the value of a particular issuer's stock.
Value style risk: Over time, a value oriented investing style may go in and out of favor, which may cause the Fund to underperform other equity funds that use different investing styles.
Selection risk: The Subadviser's judgment about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular security may be incorrect.
Large cap risk: Large cap stocks may fall out of favor relative to small or mid cap stocks, which may cause the Fund to underperform other equity funds that focus on small or mid cap stocks.
Foreign securities risk: Because the Fund may invest in securities of foreign issuers, an investment in the Fund is subject to special risks in addition to those of U.S. securities. These risks include heightened political and economic risks, greater volatility, currency fluctuations, higher transaction costs, delayed settlement, possible foreign controls on investment, possible sanctions by governmental bodies of other countries and less stringent investor protection and disclosure standards of foreign markets. Foreign securities are sometimes less liquid and harder to value than securities of U.S. issuers. These risks are more significant for issuers in emerging market countries. Global economies and financial markets are becoming increasingly interconnected, and conditions and events in one country, region or financial market may adversely impact issuers in a different country, region or financial market.
Issuer concentration risk: Because the Fund typically invests in approximately 35 to 45 companies, an adverse event affecting a particular company may hurt the Fund's performance more than if it had invested in a larger number of companies.

Everclear 151 Grain Alcohol
Everclear 151 Grain Alcohol
everclear is not vodka
first off, everclear is a spirit(a neutral grain spirit, meaning nothing added to make it into any other spirit like gin) it has almost no water(only about 5%) after the distilling and no sugar added.
vodka is a liquer, it has a lot of water added almost 40% water or more (almost half +/- depending on if its further made into lower proof vodka by being diluted vodka) and sugar added.
second, everclear is pure grain alcohol about 95% alchohol and has no sugar making it a spirit, vodka has almost half water by volume cause its been diluted and has sugar added to it making it a liquer.
third, everlcear is not sold as vodka, it does not say vodka on the bottle, it says pure grain alcohol
4th, pure grain alcohol is the boiled down product of either corn, wheat potateoes, rice rye, or whatever, it is the product that is used to make any of the many types of spirits or liquers such as rum, gin, whiskey, vodka etc etc,. it has not been DISTILLED into a different type of spirit or into a Liquer
5th, ever clear is one of many brands of pure grain alcohol, not a brand of vodka, other brands of pure grain alchohol are – golden grain, alcohol-95,
6th, these are all alchohol and distillation FACTS, NOT OPINIONS!!!!!!!!! YOU F***ING IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!
7TH, I even contacted LUXCO Co. customer service, the guys who make everclear and they will tell you the same thing

Livingston Merlot
Livingston Merlot
Livingston Merlot
Merlot is one of my favorites, and I have tasted quite a large number. I have enjoyed it by itself, with cheese courses, and paired with meat. I am usually skeptical of wines in bottles with screwtops instead of corks, but I have found other wines from Livingston to be quite nice. Upon opening the bottle, it had a somewhat medicinal odor, so I decanted it for a little while. The wine definitely improved in the glass after decanting. The aforementioned medicinal quality had completely vanished and the nose presented with a blooming grapey quality. As it hit the mouth, it was unexpectedly smooth and supple. Being a dry wine, it was slightly parching, but no more than expected. The less-expensive dry reds usually have sappy and/or astringent qualities about them, but this one does not. Instead, it is a very drinkable product, and the grape comes across very boldly. The only lacking qualities are the typical fruity and spicy notes that are usually found in merlot. Hints of black pepper or cinnamon are faint and berry-like notes are non-existant. Ultimately, while a very good red wine for its price bracket, I can not recommend this as a "go to" merlot. It would make a very respectable "house red," though, as long as your guests are not expecting anything particularly spectacular.

Elastic Waist Corduroy Pants
Soft Corduroy With Added Stretch Moves With You For Our Most Comfort-Minded Cords
Elastic Waist Corduroy Pants
Soft Corduroy With Added Stretch Moves With You For Our Most Comfort-Minded Cords
$59.95 - $69.95
We've added a touch of spandex to our cotton-rich corduroy pants, so they're not only softer and more supple to the touch, but they also give and move with you for increased comfort. All-around elastic waist allows for extra ease through the hip-and-thigh area for an extremely comfy, easygoing fit. Side-seam pockets. Cotton/spandex. Machine wash and dry. Imported. Available in both Misses' and Women's sizes.
- Full, all-round elastic waist
- Cotton with a touch of spandex for stretch
- Side-seam pockets
Rated 4.4 out of 5Â by 8 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Gracelr Corduroy pants These pants are soft and comfortable right out of the box. The fit and length are perfect. I'd like to buy them in all colors, unfortunately they were sold out. I'll keep checking for other colors. August 30, 2016
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Manon I love 'em, but they're too short after washing (1) First, let me state emphatically that the so-called "camel" is NOT A CAMEL color, which is a mustardy yellow. (The corded velour stretch pants are a true camel, not these.) These are an elegant medium TAUPE, much more versatile, and I hope VCS keeps this gorgeous color! (2) Although I ordered several colors, I kept only the "camel" taupe because the fabric shrank over 2 inches in length on the Regular when washed, making them much too short. Also, the size measured significantly larger in the hips, and even a bit in the waist, in the black and navy colors than in the "camel". That's a case for quality control. (3) A suggestion: maybe VCS could have the pants cut 3 inches longer and describe them as "30 inches after washing." Then this fabric can be kept. The 2% spandex is a nice feature -- any more makes cords too "drapey" -- if you like that, then get the corded velours. (Note: If you plan to lengthen there's only about one inch, which is inadequate; you need to use a tape; and it's tricky due to the slight spandex stretch.) I would recommend these to a friend with the above caveats. But for those, I would have given them 5 stars. February 20, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by ret-teach cord pants I have bought these over the years and have always received a good product. February 18, 2016
Rated 3 out of 5Â by Bubba K Cold weather slacks We went to Italy in October, 2015. I bought these slacks in black. They were perfect. Very comfy on a chilly day. Next week we go to San Francisco and I decided to get another color. My son says it can be chilly in the wine country. February 2, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by janell Nice Cords My old cords were wearing out. I needed new ones. March 3, 2015
Rated 4 out of 5Â by Upstate Quilter A quality product Made with heavy-weight corduroy, generously cut and well made. The only negative: they shrank in spite of my washing them in cold water and drying on very low heat. I can still wear them, but now they are tighter than I would like. They are still the best corduroy pants around though. Maybe adding a bit of synthetic material would reduce the shrinkage. February 2, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by cmptrgrny great corduroys I love these pants but bought them a size larger than I ordinarily take because most pants are too short. I love that these pants are made out of quality corduroy and will last a long time and are well constructed. I cannot emphasize enough that the products that I buy from this site are well made and long lasting. You really get what you pay for from the vermont country store. That is why I buy from them often. January 27, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Searching Forever Everything I wanted I used to wear Cabin Creek but they have closed and I have been searching everywhere for these pants. I am so excited. The quality is great. Love the stretch. February 25, 2014

Welcome to your morning dose of denim news, links, sales, and everything else we couldn't help but share. Check out what's happening (and totally not happening) in the world of denim now. Got a tip you think we should include, a sale you want to share, or a style you just saw and can't live without? Email us!
1. Comme Des Garçons Homme Plus has released a denim & wool jacket, and it's a super dapper selection for fall dressin'! It's lined in silk and wool and the two-tone effect provides a palette of options for styling. For early fall, we'd go with some light beige corduroys.
2. Christopher Kane x J Brand = neon, top to bottom. It sure is fun to look at in these photos, but would even one of these pieces work in an outfit, separately? We'll have to wait and see if there's something more than meets the eye.
3. The French men's line Alexandre Mattiussi is launching at Barneys New York this fall, in additional to 9 other retailers and an online store. Tom Kalenderian, general merch manager for men's at Barneys says "AMI is targeted for a guy looking for modern classics." Of course, they produce some great denim.
4. Hey big spenders! Up to 80% off Balmain jeans at The Outnet, right now! Jeans for "only" $400 (regularly far more).
5. This Spring 2012, GOLDSIGN Founder and Creative Director, Adriano Goldschmied lets us explore his passion and vision for daily life with "Goldskin", an exclusive collection of mineral dyed suede, which will only be available to view and order at Tranoi tradeshow in Paris, France and Coterie tradeshow in New York, New York.

I fight with my teenager constantly about eating all but crumbs and then putting the box back.
Same with drinking all but an ounce of the milk or juice and then putting it back in the refrigerator.
My biggest one is 'guessing' what's going to happen OUT LOUD at the movies. Some genius kept doing this when I saw Silver Linings Playbook. Really? You think they are going to end up together? What else is going to happen? Blah.ReplyCancel
Wearing one of those phone earpieces, then starting to talk into it IN THE MIDDLE OF A CONVERSATION. Gah. Incredibly rude.ReplyCancel
Taking single bites of a candy bar at a movie and lowering the wrapper with each bite. Do people not realize how noisy this is? Remove the whole bar!!!ReplyCancel
Everything annoys me. It one of the reasons I get stoned frequently.
I grew up with 3 older brothers and they did almost everything mentioned above. Esp. not flushing.ReplyCancel
Amber took one of my #1 pet peeves w/ the not flushing. The state of public restrooms never ceases to amaze and disgust me. It's one thing if the toilet is broken, but 9 times out of 10, it works and the person is just too lazy to flush.ReplyCancel
leave cabinet doors open…The Opster has no probs puttng down the toilet seat (although the flush portion seems to trip him up) but he cannot shut a cabinet door to save his life. And his sisters are the same
Also talking during movies or tv shows..Wanna comment? Please don't do it over dialogue! My ex friend used to pause and talk and a 2 hour movie was never finished. NEVER see the end. Now if my husband does it I call him April.ReplyCancel
Extreme PDA. If you want to express your affection with a kiss or hand squeeze, fine. If your actions are clearly leading you to a sexual encounter, please save it for a private moment.
I do not need to see your lover grazing your breast, squeezing your ass, or sucking your tongue. Thanks.
When my son throws his dirty laundry in front of the hamper!!
When my husband leaves the bedroom closet door open!! Close the fucking door nobody wants to see the mess that you call a closet!!! arrrggg!!!!
Also if you pee on the seat fucking wipe it off blech that is totally disgusting!!!
People that make noise when they chew their food – I totally lose my appetite!!
Oh there are so many things, I could probably write a book!!ReplyCancel
@karen – girl, this issue makes me stabby. Who do these entitled clowns think they are??
Every night I pray that I'll get assigned traffic duty next year. Not really, but I think I'm going to start. Look for this headline:
Crazy Oklahoma Educator Smashes Wayward Driver with One of Those Long-Handled Stop Signs.
I'll have to work on the headline, but you get the gist.ReplyCancel
Not zipping the zip lock on refrigerator food. Both my teenage daughter and hubby are totally incapable of zipping! Drives me insane! It's not hard, people!ReplyCancel
@karen, Sarah – it absolutely is written in the male DNA! Lemme tell ya, as a 20+ year veteran of marriage to a man, pick your battles. If he's a wonderful man who loves and respects you, consider just closing the drawers and doors as you pass them. Ditto about the wadded up socks left on the living room floor every night (sideeye to Mr. Frufra).ReplyCancel
Hopefully I'm not going to end up on someone's shit list due to posting this (because I know how going off-topic riles up some people), but I missed Enty's open-season Your Turn recently, and I figure that, if I can get my friend some help, it'll be worth getting my butt flame-broiled on here:
My friend Megan is trying to raise $5K right now via IndieGoGo over the next 15 days to pay medical bills and to try and get an appointment w/a specialist to deal w/her various issues. She has adult-onset epilepsy, possibly due to a benign brain tumor, and has been having all kinds of problems including seizures, migraines, etc. The doctors she's been dealing with so far have been, shall we say, less than helpful (frankly, based on what she's told us, they're incompetent bordering on malpractice, but she's been stuck w/them due to out-of-network specialists not being covered by her insurance), and she'd really like to be able to get her life back and be a far more productive member of society. If you'd like to make a contribution, or even just think good thoughts for her, I know she'd be very appreciative; here's the URL:
We now return you to your regularly scheduled snarkfest… 🙂ReplyCancel
When people exit a building, get to the top of the stairs/escalator, etc and just stop there. They either look around or check their phone or what have you. Meanwhile there's a bottle neck behind them of people trying to get somewhere.
Move to the side people!
This happens to me every day when I leave the train station, both at the top of the stairs and when I leave the building.ReplyCancel
I put things away, I utilize the dishwasher, I close cabinets, doors, and put the toilet seat down, I write down "eggs" on the shopping list if I used the last one.
The future Mr. Kay isn't capable of a lot of this :-/
It's driving me nuts. Hopefully he'll get a little better before the wedding.ReplyCancel
Ugh. My husband has been doing this lately. But he's doing so many other projects around the house that I'm incapable of doing, that I haven't called him out on it yet and am choosing to fume in silence, and put the dishes in the dishwasher myself.ReplyCancel
I love my housemates dearly, but they fairly regularly forget about their laundry after it is run through the wash–so I'll go to do laundry a few days later and there is gross, mildewy clothing in the washing machine. I either have to go get one of them to run it again or I have to pull it out, put it somewhere, and then put it back after I'm done with my laundry.
This used to drive me nuts, but after almost 3 1/2 years I'm kind of resigned to it.ReplyCancel
Don't bring your baby on a long haul flight. unless they need life saving surgery, there is NO excuse. I don't care if you miss your cousins wedding or have to put off your tour of European castles. NO EXCUSE!!!ReplyCancel
Male DNA also means they can't see crumbs on the counter (side eye to Mr. Med) which annoys the CHITLINS out of me.ReplyCancel
And for the record…women are PIGS (and I am insulting pigs by saying that) in public restrooms. Far moreso than men. Why they do things in public restrooms they would never even THINK of doing in a private residence…ugh.
I kinda thought enty was asking what WE don't do. For instance, I am terrible about emptying the dishwasher and won't do it until another load is ready to go.
In the spirit of how everyone else is answering…not putting dirty clothes in one of the 2 hampers AND not turning clothes right side out. Drives me nuts.ReplyCancel
@Em, I heard about that and am strongly trying to remember the blinds that kept referring to a soon to be canceled tv show. It's driving me crazy trying to look for them!ReplyCancel
Just reading all your comments has left me almost hyperventilating. I have so many pet peeves it's not even funny.
Just now, I was sharing the elevator with a young woman who was wearing several different scented products, plus perfume, and on top of that, she had just had a cigarette. She probably thinks the perfume masks the smell of smoke, but it almost enhances it. It was gross. I almost lost my appetite.
Almost. I still ate my tacos, TYVM.ReplyCancel
Haha FSP. Cute story, when I went on the first date with my bf we met at his apt for dinner. When nature called I excused myself and (since he lived alone) of course the seat was up. Once nature had been answered (and the toilet properly flushed) I put the seat back up.
He later told me that thought that was the coolest thing in the world.
The shopping cart thing, my mom taught us from an early age to ALWAYS leave it at the between aisles so that other people could more easily move back and forth and to put it where it belongs when you are done with it (either in the parking lot kiosk or back inside the store)
Something my ex taught me: Never drink the last of a man's bourbon.
Another thing I wish my neighbor's paid attention to: don't let your little kids run around with no adult present. Same with your dogs.ReplyCancel
People (side eye to Mr. B) who take a TV remote and start. clicking. through. each. fucking. channel. on. our. TV. where. we. subscribe. to. every. fucking. channel. And then stopping, watching something until a commercial and. then. starting. to. click. on. each. fucking. channel. again.
If I kill him over this, if there is just one married woman on the jury, I'll get off the murder charge.ReplyCancel
@Susan – ha! You totally will be acquitted.
Mr. F isn't a flipper, but he'll watch 25 minutes of a 30 minute show, and then just turn the damn TV off! I'm all, "hey, let's see how it ends!", and he's all, "ahh, it wasn't that good, I'm going to bed". Whaaa? I'm seeing it through to the end, good, bad, or indifferent. I've already invested 25 minutes of my life!! Then I seize the remote and commence eye rolling.ReplyCancel
@FSP: That's what I keep telling him;)
Frufra in my apt complex the driving is horrible. The parking lot is small and one way but just about 50% of the people here don't pay attention to the signs. It's not uncommon to see 2 cars playing chicken and waiting each other out to see who backs up first.
So I would like to borrow your idea and thwap them with the one way signs.
I'm cryin' at some of these! Glad to know I'm in good company. Mr. Slacker is guilty of some of these offenses (socks lying around, leaving cabinets opened), but the one that drives me nuts is: NOT PUTTING THE CAP BACK ON THE TOOTHPASTE!
Also: not emptying the coffee filter so it's clean and ready to go the next morning. That's one thing I don't want to deal with as I'm getting ready for work!ReplyCancel
@jules. I just watched that! Absolutely loved it! Bradley cooper and jennifer lawence have really good on screen chemistry!ReplyCancel
Piss on toilet seat/unflushed toilet.
Used Q-tips left on sink. Gross!
Used Kleenex left around. Gross!
My boyfriend claims to be lactose-intolerant, but has NOOOO problem eating all the ice cream. I would buy ice cream only when it is BOGO. I tell him choose yours and I'll choose mine. He usually gets Moose Tracks, which I can't eat cuz I'm allergic to peanuts. He'll eat his AND mine! Within 2 days! So, I no longer buy ice cream.
Please replace the toilet paper!! Is it that difficult?!?!ReplyCancel
Rinse dishes. Always. Grrrr. Again, not hard to do!ReplyCancel
Ooooo, that's mine, too. Push the GD buggy back up to the store or cart return. WTF is wrong with people?? They will walk three miles around Wally World, but pushing the buggy back is just too much?? Dang!ReplyCancel
It irks me when the kids use something and then they never put it back where it belongs and then I can never find it and they and my hubby also drive me nuts always leaving the lights on when they leave the room( the electric bill is 600$ a month!)or leave the door open when they go outside so I have to follow them around the house and turn the lights off or shut the door behind them,and I hate it when my hubby acts like an uncultured loser like eating with his fingers,drinking right out of the milk container,wearing shoes in the house, etc. and then setting a bad example for the kids.ReplyCancel
And as far as people leaving a wet toilet seat, I'm old enough I just don't care any more – if I enter a restroom as the guilty party is leaving, I'm going to yell at them in the store or restaurant or whatever, I don't care if they get embarrassed and I don't care if people think I'm being a bitch. I'll make sure everyone in earshot knows what a pig just left the rest room.ReplyCancel
Scraping the bottom of your ice cream bowl hundreds — IF NOT THOUSANDS — of times with your spoon, frantically clanging and dragging the metal against the bottom repeatedly…trying. to. get. the. very. last. drop. of. ice. cream. when. the. rest. of. the. BRAND. NEW. gallon. of. ice. cream. is. in. the. freezer!!! Hint: If you need more, there's plenty left. May I get you some more so you don't have to scrape, Dear?!?!??!!ReplyCancel
I just got back from the grocery store and had to listen to an obviously sick women coughing her lungs out. Not once did she attempt to cover her mouth, cough in her elbow or turn her head. The poor checker had to deal with this woman who continued coughing & spewing everywhere as she talked about how sick she was. Times I've been sick in the store because I had to buy something, I bring a tissue & cough in that. I came thisclose to saying something.ReplyCancel
@Pogue Mahone ITA — leaving the lights on after they've left the room. You turned them on when you went in…..how about turning them off when you're through. LOL SMH @$600 electric bills…I'm right there with youReplyCancel
Fru, ABlake and SusanB, I am dying laughing here.I just touch the remote.. just nudge it .. and he jumps straight up from a dead sleep on the couch. I once hid it in the crock pot for 48 hours as punishment. I like SusanB's non violent solution, get 2 .ReplyCancel
Co-workers eating stinky and/or noisy food in small workspaces, e.g. egg salad or tuna salad sandwiches, loudly crunching carrots/celery/chips/crackers/whatever. Someone brought a bag of McDonald's in here yesterday and the whole place stunk like farts for an hour afterwards. Gross.ReplyCancel
Forgetting to replace the paper towels on the roller-thingy we have in the kitchen. It drives my wife nuts and I'm guilty of this apparently heinous trespass forty times over.ReplyCancel
@Agent**it, I hid the remote under the couch for a few days, hubby drives me crazy with this remote obsession and the constant flicking!ReplyCancel
I think you all mentioned all my pet peeves, I guess I'm easily annoyed but my top one has to be anything toilet related like not flushing, seat up, dirty seat and a wet handle…yuck!!!ReplyCancel
@nevernudes that is hilarious. I'm guilty of that crime.ReplyCancel
Jouise you just reminded me of a mishap I had in college.
I had discovered a nearby korean place that served octopus with a yummy sauce. So I got it to go and headed back to the dorm. I lived on the 22nd floor so entered the elevator with another guy carrying a McDonalds bag and his cute friend.
By floor 3 the elevator began to reek. It was an old building so it was super slow to begin with.
By floor 10 cute friend looked at McDonalds guy and said "Dude, what did you GET?" (my bag was in my backpack so he just assumed that the McDonalds guy was the culprit) "I don't know man, they brought back the McRib but I think I was given a rotten one"
I finally slinked off and I'm pretty sure they figured it out once the smell went away. Ever since then I've been super aware about other folks and their right to have an odor free environment.ReplyCancel
I always thought those truck testicles always signified a women who had metaphorically taken her man's balls. Keep in mind that I live in Oklahoma by way of Texas, and there are lots of truck-driving gals here.
Also, keep in mind that I was with Enty and thought kids were smoking cigs whilst holding them with forks.ReplyCancel
Getting on an escalator and just standing there.. On the left side! That's the passing lane, people.
Also, chewing with the mouth open. Especially if someone just asked you a question and you decide that before you answer it you really need to shove another hand full of Goldfish in your mouth
Aw, thanks, Frufra! You're way too sweet! 🙂
I know I have lots of pet peeves, but it seems as if plenty of them have already been covered, and I'm sure I'm guilty of plenty of others myself. At least my roommate is usually good about putting the seat down & closing the lid on the toilet, though…now if I can just get him to actually help CLEAN the bathroom, eh? (I really should just ask, but–irrationally on my part, I'm sure–I keep thinking that he ought to volunteer or just grab the Comet and do it.) I got in the habit of keeping the lid down when my first cat, Mojo, was a teeny kitten–I was always afraid that he'd manage to jump in the toilet and drown while I was at work, so I started putting down the seat, and it's been a habit ever since. Besides, that way everyone has to lift something in order to use the can, right?
(Obligatory celebrity reference: when I was living in Athens, GA, I once went to a party at which Michael Stipe was also in attendance, and ended up using the bathroom right after him…and you guessed it, he left the seat up. 😉ReplyCancel
I am loving this Your Turn – so many laffs! I honestly think that pet peeves and related grousing about them would make an excellent blog. Although I'm sure there are blogs out there that exclusively cover this very topic. I'm just too lazy to google. I'm sorry if laziness is your #1 pet peeve :-p.ReplyCancel
How do you know that they are perfectly healthy? I'm in my mid-forties and I look perfectly healthy, but have had 4 foot surgeries, and I need another one, but cannot have it right now because I was recently diagnosed with stage 4 colon cancer for which I'm getting chemotherapy. Stairs hurt my foot and I also get a bit of vertigo, especially going downstairs.ReplyCancel
Agree completely – this is my pet peeve. Why would you leave a grocery cart where it can get blown into someone's car when it takes seconds to put the cart in the cart return area? I've seen people who are parked right next to the cart return literally leave the cart right NEXT to the return, rather than taking the two seconds to put it in the return.ReplyCancel
Set recycled good on the counter for me to take out instead of taking them out themselves, cooking something in my kitchen and not cleaning up after yourself, rummaging through my pantry like it's yours and my grocery budget is endless. People who put their cart in the middle of the aisle, blocking both directions, and act like there's no one there but themselves. omg… my son's girlfriend has no manners. Sprawls herself on my table, interrupts continually, talks with her mouth full of food and then gets up without clearing her place…even when everyone else does. I hate thoughtless, selfish people.ReplyCancel
EmEyeKay: Don't let it get you down or discourage you. Opster never put down the seat lid when we first met. I told him I'd rather have him here with the up seat vs. The alternative. He always put the seat down afterwards (mostly) . I never bitch if on the rare occasion he forgets. Still can't get him to shut tge damn cabinet though.ReplyCancel
Dog owners who leave poop deposits at the park on the sidewalk…FUCKIN clean up or don't own a dog.
I'm always the one to radomly step in shit!! And my lab luvs to point out piles of shit before she tries to eat it. ARGH
I never said "leave it" so much in my life!!ReplyCancel
OK – My REAL answer is "What @Me said". I have 2 HUGE dogs, with HUGE poop, and I pick that shit up (hee hee) even when I'm juggling my 2 toddlers, have the stomach flu or having volatile morning sickness (Sorry for the puke in your bushes, Mr. Neighbor. I couldn't help it!) If there is dog poop to step in, my zapatos will find a way. EVERY. DAMN. TIME. I threatened to do a stakeout/citizen's patrol in front of my old condo building, but my husband reminded me that I have a life. Ha ha!ReplyCancel
Omg yes! Or they sneeze in their hand and immediately touch something! Gross!ReplyCancel
I absolutely agree about the not flushing toilets. Seriously who raised you???? No one wants to see that!
My hubby leaves every single light on. Even the closets and pantry. I'm constantly following him around turning them off. Just how I want to spend my time.
Also- as a mom with small kiddos who still use strollers, it annoys the crap out of me when people who are perfectly capable of taking a nearby escalator instead use the elevator. I end up having to wait until every single one of them gets on (bc no one is polite enough to let the mom & kids on first) and then of course there's no room for me and my kids. Drives me nuts!ReplyCancel
The worst food-related is when someone partially or completely empties the coffee pot, and puts it back on the burner. Hello, stink!
Ditto on people who whiz (or worse!) on the toilet seat. Ladies, this is a professional company, not the "2 Girls 1 Cup" research center!
The toilet seat and lid should always be down when flushing. Flushing spews tiny particles of fun through the air, all making a beeline for your toothbrush. Yum.ReplyCancel
Towels on the floor sort of bothers me, people that let their dogs run loose (worse when the dog comes to my house, and there's no phone number or address), when the kids complain about their computers being slow, when they haven't done a disk clean in two months.ReplyCancel
I have OCD tendencies and am very impatient, so my list is long… but pretty much what everyone else here has said!
*Non-flushers (GROSS). Even worse – I clean our church weekly and there have been times where people haven't flushed, or left their feminine products floating, or have made a mess on the seats. I keep sanitizing wipes in every bathroom, but apparently that doesn't quite give the hint.
*Dishes in the sink/on counters/around the house – I keep the dishwasher empty, there is no bloody excuse for anyone to not put their dish right in.
*Dirty laundry on the floor. Every bathroom has a hamper, there's no reason your laundry should be anywhere but in that hamper or in your closet.
*Slow drivers and drivers who come to a nearly complete stop making a right turn. JUST TURN ALREADY.
*Loud stuff – neighbors who crank the music, cars without mufflers, people who talk *really loud* into their phones in the grocery store, early morning joggers who hawk really loud loogies as they pass your window at 4AM, neighbors who let their ginormous dog out in the yard all day barking at the other neighbors who let their tiny pair of yipping dogs annoy the loud dog. Makes working at home in the summer such fun…
Heh, it sounds like I'm an old crank – really, I'm actually a pleasant person. I just keep it all in and then rail at Mr. It cracks him up. :bReplyCancel
People who eat while they are speaking. One morning I was at work when a woman called for information. It sounded as if she was eating cereal because there was the DING DING of the spoon hitting the bowl (and I swear it it sounded like a dog's collar hitting its bowl) and then then SLURP! as she put the spoon in her mouth, and then she enthusiastically chewed her way through each question. It was horrible and I almost wondered if I was being punked, it was so bad. The conversation went on and on what seemed like FOREVER when finally I said, "I'm sorry, would you might not eating while we finish up? I'm having trouble hearing you." and she seemed genuinely surprised and said, "Oh, okay!". Meanwhile, I could hear a pin drop in the office as two of my colleagues froze in horror. They later told me that they were appalled at what I said and that if our director had been in the office I might have been fired. My lucky day, I guess.
Ditto what everyone said about the restrooms. I think it's a passive aggressive thing thing unless those women are pigs at home.
I never leave my cart in the middle of the parking lot. Is it really so hard to walk it to the cart corral? I used to like to park near the cart corrals so I could put the cart there after shopping and quickly leave, until someone told me that cars parked near those have higher rates of getting dinged because lazy people will just push their carts in the general direction of the corral and the carts will sometimes roll into cars. Nice!ReplyCancel
All of the above.
My last roommate would take a nasty, nasty, ginormous shit and then wouldn't double flush. So I and my guests would walk up to a toilet with nice chunky poop particles floating around in it. The worst was when you could see what she had eaten. Definitely curbed my appetite for a while.
When people come to a complete stop to make a right hand turn. Really? Keep it movin guys, no need to dead stop.
When you are watching TV with friends, you flip to a channel and that one obnoxious friend yells "Oh my god, what's going on? Why is he doing that? Who is she?" I DON"T FUCKING KNOW! I just turned on the show too, we both just started watching it together! What am I, psychic?
Also, when watching a TV show or movie an you start it from the beginning but there is always that one person who doesn't pay attention and you have to spend the entire time explaining it to them.
And lastly, when people in a crowded mall are walking, do dee doo, and suddenly they just dead stop and you smack into them. Or when you are trying to walk around them and no matter how hard you try, they keep on fanning out and somehow thwarting your efforts no matter how hard you try.
Oh yeah, fucking wedge sneakers. Wear one or the other because otherwise your shoes look stupid IMO.ReplyCancel
After watching the ice bloopers video I was reminded of people that don't knock the icicles off their houses. It's so dangerous.ReplyCancel
Steal your food and coffee creamer from the company fridge, even if you've put your name on it. Oh, ***** won't mind. She'd be cool with that. No.
There are also people up here in the Pacific NW who have no understanding of "right of way" in the supermarkets. If you are in the main aisle, you have "right of way". If you're coming off the dog food or some other aisle, you need to yield to the people coming through in the main aisle, okay?ReplyCancel
@otherjulia- how about getting to the top of the escalator then stopping? This happens in airports all the time. Hmmm – which way is my gate? Meanwhile I'm rising up their ass and bracing for impact.
My other one is not sending thank yous. Drives me nuts.ReplyCancel
Add another yea to that.ReplyCancel
@zeeky, 2 girls, 1 cup Research Center!!! You should make a sign with that line on it and post it in the bathroom! LolReplyCancel
Ugh..the Pop IN
Just happened. Not only did ex-roommate pop in but he brought his new dog (a pit) to meet my dog (shih-tzu) who is currently wearing the cone of shame because he has an eye issue. I don't think we need to do the math on what dog is in a constant pissed off mood since he can't scratch his ears or lick whatever.
Then the pit decides to jump on the bed and ex-room is laughing and saying isn't that sweet? No, no it is not. My own dog isn't allowed on the bed and is staring bullets from the crate I put him in because I do not trust pitbulls and you telling me 'we just got her, she was abused' does NOT make me any more comfortable.
(not a pit rant, really. More about pop-in's involving pets. That's simply rude. I had to give him 2 packages of pet treats to make him go away)
Seriously thinking about putting up a sign on our door saying "if you don't have an appointment, we are probably having sex" or something. Of course we are probably watching something boring but the pop in is annoying. Call first! Don't bring pets!ReplyCancel
Oh and geez, by appointment I don't mean..yeah that sounded bad.
I just hate pop in. Easier to call and say "Hey I'm going to be in the area later, is it okay if I stop by?"
Then I can set up the UNO game.
But when we are both in our pj's and all the outside world pretense is done, it's really not cool to come a'knockin.
(I am so sorry for this rant, just kinda pissed)ReplyCancel
"Not zipping the zip lock on refrigerator food. Both my teenage daughter and hubby are totally incapable of zipping! Drives me insane! It's not hard, people!"
Apparently it is hard as I live with a graduate-educated professional male who cannot zip the ziplocks to save his life. I don't buy food with a ziplock so that it can go stale.
Another vote for peeing on the seat. Ladies, put your ass on the seat – you won't get herpes, really. Also, what is with the girls having cell phone conversations in the toilet? Peeing, flushing, etc. all while chatting away. GROSS.ReplyCancel
People popping in unannounced and uninvited! Omg, hell yes to that one.
I'm severely hearing-impaired: 75% deaf here. When I first moved here, one of my b/f's friends just walked in. I was in the kitchen, the water was running and I turned and the guy was standing there. I screamed bloody murder. Honestly, I screamed so loud my throat hurt for days. After I reamed him and the b/f…who told me I needed to chill out!…guy never did it again. The story, of course, has gone thru the neighborhood and I guess I'm antisocial because I don't like drop-ins. I wouldn't even do that to my family: call first! I'm sick quite a lot and may not feel up to having company and I do not like to be made to feel obligated to put on a fresh pot of coffee and socialize after I've been yakking up for 3 days! FFS! B/f's Mom likes to drop in: she lives 2 hours away: that's not dropping in! You have a cell phone: call first!! That is rude and obnoxious!ReplyCancel
All About Eve – I did make a sign a long time ago, pre- "2 Girls 1 Cup." Not exactly sure what it said, but it was something that questioned exactly WHY they want so badly for me and others to sit in their pee. They were more offended by the sign, than finding out the sign was true… the hard way.ReplyCancel
lol Mooshki for the winReplyCancel
