  • Wow! These gender reveals are really getting out of hand!

    • Shopping carts should have slots on the side for reusable bags. They always seem to sink to the bottom of the cart

    Jump

  • I don't own them, so I don't know about storage. The handles are on the same side as the rods so carrying them should be easy enough.

  • I see these a lot in my city.

    • I pronounce there and their differently

  • How do you pronounce "they're"?

    • how close to the table edge is it socially acceptable to place a full glass of water?

    Jump

  • It depends.

    • If you are dining, then place it on the far side of your plate.
    • If you are sitting at a table, but not dining, then place it approximately halfway between the dining position and the table edge.
    • If you are standing by the table, then I'd go with about 4"-6" from the table edge.
    • If you are standing by the table in a high traffic area, then I'd go with 6"-8".
    • If you notice someone nearby who is particularly animated when speaking, then I'd aim for the centre of the table.

    This answer assumes the table in question is a dining table. Coffee tables are a whole different kettle of fish; and don't even get me started on side tables, bureaus and credenzas!

  • Big W, take your books off the shelves if you feel that's the right thing to do, however, you have negotiated with terrorists. These fuckers now know that by abusing staff at Big W stores, they can get what they want. Well done!

    • What is the most unhelpful advice you have received?

    Jump

  • Unsolicited medical advice drives me nuts.

    Gee. Thanks "doctor" for your advice. Obviously I'm going to listen to you after you watched a three minute YouTube video and not the doctor with six years of medical training and education!

    • LOL, I was just permantly banned from /r/metalmemes for referring to transphobes as "cunts".
