I do not believe that people making fun of Trump's bad tan are motivated by racism, no.

OK? The US doesn't have a history of oppressing white people with tans either

by davidcbc 9y ago
The US doesn't have a long history of oppressing people who use fake tan sprays so the two really aren't comparable.

It is great if it works this way for you, but every group had its own dynamics. Personally my group of friends primarily talks via Messenger, that's where all the planning for things takes place. We have one friend who isn't on Fa

Because it is helpful for the new members to hear about what everyone else is working on as well. I started on a new team a couple months ago and if it wasn't for the daily stand-up I would have no idea what was going on outside of the

2500 isn't an unreasonable maintenance estimate for someone that is 6'5 and 220lbs. Obviously if the op was gaining weight at 2000 calories it was a bad estimate for him (or he was eating more than he thought, which is often the c

I don't think it is fair to say they are lying, they probably do really want those things, but fear of the unknown and failure paralyzes people, especially those that are already comfortable. They should probably be more specific and s

Our older guests all figured it out and didn't complain, even the ones who aren't particularly technical. Would they have liked a physical copy? Maybe, but wedding planning was already stressful enough without having to deal with

Anyone so offended by the lack of a physical invitation that they don't come to my wedding is someone I wouldn't want at my wedding anyway. Two birds, one stone

Not everyone cares about the same things you do. I used paperless post for my wedding because it was easy, free, and physical wedding invitations are not important to me or my wife in any way. Nobody complained, it took a couple hours to ge

This assumes that the Venn diagram of "top candidates" and "people actively looking for jobs" overlaps significantly. The best candidate for a job may not be looking for a job so companies pay recruiters to find them. If
