Mac&Cheese Burger

I read this article after looking for writing about trigger friendships. I'm not sure if this is that helpful but it's interesting that someone else has thought about this.

Would you try this? Is this "change the bun" hamburger thing spreading? I thought it would have stopped with the double down and the ramen burgers.... And if so, should we welcome this trend?

A theory on why women are less likely to be entrepreneurs than men. Of course, it seems that to change this, in some ways we'd have to basically change the whole fabric of society.

Solves all the problems we had on the plane with regard to watching movies...

Don't you want to go to Greece?

1. I've heard that kids these days receive way too much homework but I don't know what to think about that. Are the homework assignments frivolous? Are we teaching our kids too much? I assume we likely don't provide as much annual homework as they do in many other countries because I think other countries have longer school years. I think we'd have to provide much more homework to come out even. But what I found to be the most confounding thing about this whole article is measuring amount of homework by hours it takes to get done. Doesn't it make sense that the kids with poorer educational backgrounds (like the U.S.) report spending more time on it than kids in the Netherlands?

2. It's kinda sad to see her go but she's so inspiring. (And yoox has a very different feel from net-a-porter. I wonder how that's going to work out).

3. That was a much better profile. I think it's really smart that he's asking these questions like why are blacks worse off now than they were 30 years ago? Also, I had no idea he was so old. No wonder he has written so much!

4. I understand there are better games but there's something to be said about a common culture and Monopoly is a commonality Americans share. As is Hungry Hungry Hippos. It's that nice idea that everything is coming full circle playing monopoly with your kids just like your parents played monopoly with you. It's not quite the same if you force your kids only to play the newest and best games.

5. That quiche looks amazing but I don't think we should make that many ribs unless we have company over...

6.Pretty sure they didn't think about it. Just eat your lunch in your fancy dining room, serf!

1..You don't like rose (the wine, I can't figure out how to do the accent)?

2. I think I watched the first ep. I did not understand it at all. But aww remember how you set up that fantasy football draft and you made fun of me for coming in dead last? Good times. =P

4. I have that fear of running completely out of money too. They say a lot of women have that fear, poor or not. I think the Cracked article is really good but people always reference it to mean "hey, you can't blame poor people for being poor" even though he is basically saying he had to figure out how to overcome these things in order to do better. On the second part, I'm not saying we have to live like that but I appreciate how they supported each other through tough times and it will mirror our support for each other under not-nearly-so-tough times.

5. What stuff about domestication? Is the remake of Cosmos that thing that Neil Degrasse Tyson hosts?

7. What do you mean "one of us"?

8. *hugs*

1. But don't the rules of subjective offense change with the times too? What if most people are offended by something now? Shouldn't that now be objectively offensive even though it was not objectively offensive before?

4. I am totally confused by the statement " If the vast majority (or even a simple majority) of Chinese students in China were smart enough to enroll at TJ and do well, then we would have scrapped our system for theirs years ago." Not because I think a simple majority of Chinese students can but probably a simple majority of Dutch children probably could and we don't switch our educational systems to whatever they do there. (Not saying we should because there are other factors at play but it seemed like an odd statement to make.). I will agree that there is nothing intrinsic in terms of anyone's race that helps them to succeed.

2. Bear is the best ENTJ there ever was, with all the best attributes. Though he might spew logic a little...=D

5. Yes, but what if your employer offers multiple plans like we have here. Is the HSA the best option for me?
