It's not clear in the article, but I didn't get the impression that it was common knowledge that Betty Crocker's advice and recipes were actually the work of a collection of women. What the article did talk about was the fac

Ah, it was only like 5 options deep and then it gave me a chat "assistant" which I used to search the term "my data" which gave me the link and the drop down box mentioned in the article to scroll to the bottom of to req

I may end up going through planned parenthood if that improves things. I really, really hate speculums up my cooch and have no predispositions to any issues in that area and there's absolutely no reason for me to be required to have a

Well shoot, I've never thought of it that way. I guess it's perfectly reasonable that they've extrapolated my behavior out so they know when to raise the price of items I intend to purchase. Yep, not underhanded at all.

That search you suggested doesn't appear to exist in the app. You mind telling me how to access this data through the app if it's so easy?

I'm still pissed that I have to get a pap smear every couple years in spite of being with the same man since I turned 18. Doctors won't prescribe birth control without one. I had a lovely biopsy of cervical tissue a couple years

I don't think I know them any better than you do. I used one to get to the airport once and it cost $40. Economy parking would have been cheaper, so I use that now. That's the only time I've used one personally. My impress

Why aren't alcohol manufacturers investing in self-driving technology? That seems like it would be a net positive for them now that you mention it.

Is there a reason no one is talking about Hawking? If I had to pull a recently deceased genius off the top of my head, he would be it.

Most radio has been pretty much the top 40 to my memory of the last couple decades. However, there used to be more independent radio stations which at least played the top 40 of a different style. And there were more shows even on those s

So damn casual about it. They don't intend for it to be offensive at all. Lower classes are unintelligent and frivolous and Arabs are noble savages. That's just the writer's reality. It's crazy how far we've come

I don't believe crocheting was ever used for fishing nets. It really doesn't make a lot of sense for that use. A big problem with crochet is that it's made with a single strand of yarn and if you pull the end, it will unrav

The way I read it was that granny squares saw a cycle of popularity, rather than crochet in general. 40 years would be a pretty normal length of time for something to be cool, then dated, then cool again. Personally, I learned granny squar

I see what you mean. I never thought about it that way. It kind of just depends what side you're on whether it immediately leaps out as terrorism.

I'm having trouble finding any solid numbers on what percent of products are sold pay per scan. I just know that in the retail stores I've worked in, the only examples I know of are live plants and possibly aquarium fish.

I don't have a lot of background in this, so tell me if I'm off-base. Israel is occupying land that it took from Palestine, is it not? I don't feel that terrorism is the correct term for attacks on an occupying force.

There are products like that, but to my knowledge, there's not a lot of them and it tends to be certain specialized categories. The only example I can think of where the supplier will refund the product if it doesn't sell is live

The Wikipedia page cites a documentary as the source, which may be correct, but doesn't seem like an appropriate source. Here's a paper that I skimmed the abstract of claiming ~9 years: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov&#

I agree that there should absolutely be a way to rehome children whose families aren't able to handle the situation. The point of the article was that it needs to be tracked and regulated much, much more thoroughly. The article focus

I've been told in training at every retail store that I've worked for not to attempt to stop shoplifters. Because the cost of the goods is less than the cost of a dead employee. It's pretty damn dangerous to square off with

Does reducing a crime from a felony to a misdemeanor constitute decriminalization? I'm honestly curious. That's not how I've understood the term to be used.

I feel like the solution is to screen adoptive parents much more thoroughly. It is incredibly traumatic to find out that the people you live with and depend on don't want you around any more. Whether you think the parents at that poi

The green parts are really bitter. I always figured that was the reason you don't hear much about people being poisoned by green potatoes. They taste nasty enough that it's usually just not a problem.

Thanks for all the info. I definitely underestimated the number of languages that don't use Cyrillic. I also had it in my head that dropping "to be" in the present tense was more common. Do you know anything about the hist

Shows how little I know about Slavic languages besides my elementary understanding of Russian. I appreciate the correction. Definitely didn't expect so many replies, but I'm learning a lot.

It tells me that they don't care about anything but their profits and, as a society, we need to stop being okay with that. Employees are not just an inconvenient cost that should be minimized in any way possible. They're human b
