Right!? I kind of was hoping the wave would start.... Clearly it hasn't.

I try to even clip mine into a bit of a V (but very subtle; ~10°). Had a friend teach me that in college. It feels weird for a day or two but I haven't had ingrown nails since.

As someone who built up a business working 80+ hrs; fuck that guy. 5 years ago I was paying part timers$26/hr and my only full time (salary) - told him 30 hrs/week max. It was my risk/investment, not theirs. I didn't want them to get burned out. Happier employees perform better.

Almost the exact same situation here. I tested it on myself and it's like a TENS unit. It's been a few years and now we really only use the tone button. It was a lifesaver for training though.

Thank you. I took half the time just go straight spoonful of peanut butters. I'm going to check out that cinnamon sugar peanut butter!

As a fellow peanut butter aficionado, what are your favorite peanut butter dishes/snacks?

64/78 year round. Occasionally knock it down to 74 in the summer when it's going to be really hot and the AC unit may not keep up.The house retains heat too well and bakes in the evening sun.

Globally the average life expectancy is ~73.5 so mid/upper 30s is essentially middle aged.

If it helps; my dad was mid 40s when I was born. We have a great relationship. He still would take time to play catch with me and all the general dad things despite being older. You still have plenty of time if you want kids!

How?! How can they stand it themselves and not feel like they're being blinded?

While I think Linus can be way too whiny at times. I think he handled the situation well if everything stated is true. He made it clear on his forum that they terminated the partnership/sponsorship. He could have made a 'more public statement (e.g., a video on ltt)' but as he stated, viewers probably would have raked him over the coals for doing so. It likely would have been perceived as 'oh no! Honey stole money from me but gave you a discount. Woe is me.'

He still is too whiny as of the last few years but as a small business (very small; ~20 employees) owner myself, I kind of get it. I go out of my way to try to give my employees the best possible experience but sometimes people think I'm just taking advantage of them (despite me paying my full-time employees 1.5x my pre-tax take home rate). So I kind of get why he acts that way at times. Now, I don't condone it, but I understand.

Edit I love what Steve from GN is doing. I reported the honey extension when this news initially came out. I have supported all his pro consumer reports/actions.
