The very first video, pinned to the top, is titled "Why is oral hygiene important?" and lists both <BadThing> and <GoodThing>. The site follows approach 1 as you suggest (at least it does today).

My primary purpose is to use good judgement on choosing where to spend my time. Thus I choose not to read the book, it's not hate, it's judgement. My secondary purpose is to not reward those who use underhanded schemes to get ah

I used to sleep on the MAX(train) in Portland on my commute. I would never do that today. Too much crazy stuff happening in Weird Portland. Besides, the sleep you get on a train/commute is not quality sleep.

Why not? Things get escalated to one superior, then the next, then the next, until finally someone who can take care of the problem. Of course, going from the lowest level directly to the highest level is a bad idea, but there is some mid

Just one personal anecdote. Someone close to me in my circle, VERY responsible etc, was driving (under 30 mph, in an SUV) when a drunk homeless person just stepped right out into the road. They've been plagued by their involvement fo
