Reply to LPT: If you call a company to speak to customer service but the automated menu won't let you talk to a real person, say "Upgrade my account" instead of "Refund" or "Cancel," when the automated menu asks you to state why you're calling. You will immediately be transferred to a real person by BigSpoonFullOfSnark
This is stupid. What experience makes you feel qualified to present this as a universal tip?

Of course he shouldn’t be expected to wear a night cap to bed. Just let the poor guy sleep without being guilted about his pillowcase. It’s a non-issue outside of OP’s obsession.

Reply to Best set of chef knives ? by MatineHen
I have had a really good experience with my Globals. Going on a decade now with no visible wear and tear beyond the knife sharpening.
Easy to clean, well balanced, and durable. Some people may find the steel handle more slippery than they are used to, but it hasn’t bothered me since day 2.

It takes a gold medal in mental gymnastics to arrive a place where raising something for the sole purpose of killing and eating it is ethical if you’re nice to them first, but not if you’re mean to them before the murdering.

Reply to comment by Kaz-Marie in Spanish MPs vote to approve new 'menstrual leave' for painful periods by mancinedinburgh
A program similar to disability where the burden of paying for the financial impact of their lack of predictable availability and productivity be shouldered by taxes, not by employers.
Someone needing this time off every month results in the employer receiving their salary from the government times 1.something to offset the major inconvenience of hiring someone with that requirement.
Otherwise, nobody will want to employ them.

Letting somebody not work isn’t an accommodation. People should be paid to work.
Disability exists to compensate people who cannot.
If menstrual leave is given to people who cannot work for a few days every month like clockwork, it isn’t fair to ask the company to pay for that.

Reply to My Rival crock pot 3150. 50-ish years old and still cooking family dinners without a hitch by RooshunVodka
Sometimes, it’s best to just get a new thing when the old thing is a fire hazard and made with toxic materials.
Edit: Ok, so based on people challenging my parroting of the claim made elsewhere in this thread that there is lead in the glaze used in this product to support my sarcastic comment, I cannot find evidence that crock pots have been proven to have this problem. I even found an article that attempts to specifically exonerate them: https://www.npr.org/sections/thesalt/2017/12/08/563808879/can-your-ceramic-cookware-give-you-lead-poisoning
Regarding the fire hazard, no I will not do research to back up the science behind a pop culture reference to a current and popular TV show about a crock pot fire.
