Borat and Bruno are at the top of this list. Apparently hollywood has forgotten how to laugh at normal things, and now go to extraordinary lengths to tickle their funny bones.
What ever happened to It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World? Or the original Blues Brothers? Even Blazing Saddles? |

| One thing to be aware of are companies in your area with a good reputation towards employees. For example, in the northeast, we have Wegmans grocery stores, which are recognized nationally as exceptional employers. No, they are a supermassive chain; they employ about 40k total, as I understand it, b... |

| I don't like tomatoes because of the seeds and pulp. I will eat tomato sauce, and the solid parts when seasoned. Same issue with eggplant. Seeds bother me too, but not on bread, and I don't have an issue with rice. I think that seeds in fluid or sauce feel like inconsistencies; indicating something ... |

An arrow in the knee usually works on me. (I used to be single, but///)
Face it, someone had to.

I could never be bothered to do schoolwork. In HS it wasn't a huge issue because i knew most of what was taught anyway. In college I couldn't keep up. Last I checked my GPA was barely over 1.
