"The only "people" moving to Texas are tax mules and corpo scumbags"

Or in my brother's case, following an ex wife who decided to marry someone from Texas and move there with the kids. Sometimes moving is cheaper and less complicated than legal battles with a parent you still have to work with for another 10 years.

The clock is ticking though. As soon as the youngest graduates high school they're getting the hell out of there.

Agreed, though I usually just buy brands that I already have items from so I'm familiar with their sizing.

Richard Simmons, Dr Ruth, and Shelly Duvall make this death trifecta. That other goon didn't qualify to be associated with the wholesomeness and entertainment those three good people brought to the world.

I love that they call it smokeless. Sure it is, as long as you never cook anything in it! All you need is a drop of grease or juice from your food to drip on the element and it smoked. Mine had an aluminum reflector/liner in the bottom that stained like a bitch. I stopped using it because it was too much of a headache to keep clean.

Where does newborn come into this? It says "youngest", which sure I guess could be a newborn, but my youngest is 22 years old.

It's been a while since I had my kids, but it took about a month for the paperwork to be processed for them to get birth certificates. They never mailed them to us, but we were told that after a month we should be able to go to the country clerk's office to pick them up.

Aside from that, when signing up for benefits from an employer, in my previous experiences I had X number of days to get my paperwork in for finalization. Even if this were a newborn situation, there's enough paperwork from the hospital to generally appease HR types till the real one is available.

The old Coke Zero was amazing! It tasted closer to regular Coke without the extra sweetness that sugared colas have (regular colas taste like pancake syrup to me.) I was disappointed a few years ago when they tweaked the flavor. I think they sweetened it a little more to bring it closer to Pepsi's level of sweetness, which I don't particularly care for. After a year of not tasting the old formula of Coke Zero, the new one is ok. So really it's probably for the best since I drink less of it now lol (good goin Coke lol.)

Thank God the judicial system is perfect, free from prejudice, and never anything but unquestionably fair!

Cook county tried it in Illinois a few years back, and it really made no sense.

It didn't apply to juices (even though juices are loaded with sugar) and it taxed sugar free sodas the same as their sugar sweetened versions. They charged 1 cent per ounce for the tax. It was repealed 4 months after initiating it.

This is actually closest to the best thing lol.

Our bodies are meant to move, not sit statically even with "perfect" posture. By fidgeting, slouching, sitting tall, leaning, and all kinds of variations we're responding to feedback from our bodies. Keep listening and keep moving!

That room has a very specific odor that I can't quite describe, but I trust you know it as well.

Depends on the pizza and how much I love myself at that moment.

Acceptable pizza and I'm not in the mood to care, eat it cold.

Quality pizza and I want to show some respect for the pizza and myself, it's the above or air fryer, or at minimum a few minutes in the toaster oven.

But they heard the word once and it sounds sciency, so they keep repeating it.
