Re: UO -- Bring it!
Mmm, I agree! Lily and I had knock-off Kraft Dinner for lunch and it was amazing.

Judge away! It was half the price and tastes the same.

Yeah and I deal with people on assistance on a daily basis. I find it hard to believe they have the same education and understanding that you do. I also help them fill out and fax in paperwork since some of them have difficulty with literacy and speaking English. Based on seeing them dealing with the system I can only imagine the education they're provided with. I had to get state insurance to cover E 's NICU bill and the only education I was offered was how to falsify information in order to be sure I got maximum coverage at no cost and the recommendation to get free insurance for myself despite them knowing I already had excellent health insurance I wasn't personally paying for.
Yeah, Oreos Coke and Mac n cheese have to be name brand. Velveeta Shells N Cheese or Blue Box.
I'm virtually smacking you.
How do you feel about Vienna Fingers?
Isn't that what I just did?
That's the HIV to you.
Gross. They remind me of old people.
No, but seriously, smart people should breed more. I think you'd be justified, Mack, to have another for mere out numbering Jenelle's offspring.
I guess my point was you have no way of knowing why they were buying what they were buying. Maybe they're lazy, maybe they don't always have time to cook, maybe they really like Chef Boyardee. Maybe they think that they're buying something healthyish and affordable because they have no way of knowing the best way to feed their family on a fixed income. I find it hard to believe the vast majority of people are like, F my kids health give those brats Spaghettios so I don't have to shop around or put any effort in.

This. I'm not a gun person, but I recognize why some people are so passionate about their right to own guns for their protection or hunting purposes. I can understand why the idea of losing their right to bear arms would be upsetting. What I DON'T understand is how any form of gun control that is proposed has these gun owners freaking out. For god's sake were talking about background checks, getting rid of assault weapons, and making laws that prohibit people from building an arsenal cable of killing mass mounts of people in a short period of time. If you are a mentally stable, responsible, law abiding gun owner with nothing to hide then these proposed was should NOT be an issue with you.
I have a fb friend who was mad because New Jersey is talking about requiring gun owners to pass a mental health screening, and to prove that they are storing their weapons in a safe manner within ther homes. How is that a bad thing?! Even if you are an advocate for gun ownership WHY wouldn't you want other gun owners to be mentally stable, and responsible for keeping their weapons out of reach of children?
Roseanne reruns are on everyday on WE and some other channel. I have been watching occasionally. That was a great show and I definitely remember that episode, especially the part where she said she filled up the name brand box with the store-brand cereal.
THIS. And for the record, I am an educated woman with a 6 figure salary. I understand nutrition and try to eat healthy. That being said, I love me some Beefaroni and even give it to Brooke sometimes. Not an every day or week occurrence, but I do it.
I also love cheesesteaks, hot dogs, scrapple, boxed macaroni and cheese and numerous other processed foods. I am not overweight.
I was going to let this go, but I can't help myself. I don't think that the bold above is logical. At all. That's like saying "I don't see how a seat belt could help you if you roll into the river and maybe almost drown because you have a seat belt, so why wear one?" or "I don't see how having a law limiting blood alcohol levels will keep drunks from driving, so why have the law for it?" or "I don't see how having laws making murdering someone illegal will keep someone from killing someone else, so why have the law for it?". All of those statements are valid points but are you saying that doing NOTHING is the better alternative than trying to put something in place to keep people from dying in car accidents, being murdered without any repercussions to the perpetrator, and finally that because someone can reload quickly or carry multiple weapons on them, we shouldn't bother trying to keep an insane civilian from having a large magazine to shoot with while going on a rampage potentially in the elementary school your child is attending? I just think it's insane that the idea that something won't prevent ALL gun violence is a retort for why we shouldn't try ANYTHING. A background check harms no one. A registry of gun sales harms no one. Limiting the number of bullets you can shoot without reloading your gun harms no one. Limiting the gun type you own harms no one - you still have other guns. But enacting all those things COULD SAVE SOMEONE. And that someone could be your baby while they are sitting in their kindergarten class. Because that's how fucked up this world is.
Sorry that a big UO. It's wasn't all directed at you personally - I have just had enough of Fox news lately LOL!
