re: The American custom of asking ‘How are you?’
Posted by cupchu1 on 5/10/19 at 2:08 am
«Ça va?» «Ça va. Ça va?» «Ça va.» is a legitimate conversation in France that is just asking and answering the question “how are you?”
“How’re things?/How’s things?/What’s the craic?” is the only way I’ve ever been greeted by an Irishman.
“¿Que tal?” is an opener in Spanish that has only ever...

I assume you’re talking about “Battle of the Bastards” and “The Winds of Winter”. I disagree that either are even the best Game of Thrones episodes, but they represent the major issues with seasons 5-8. D&D are...

re: what awkward conversation have you had with an in-law
Posted by cupchu1 on 9/19/18 at 12:38 pm
I joked to my ex’s family that the click it or ticket law shouldn’t exist, to let Darwinism do its work. Ex’s father’s parents died in a single car accident because they weren’t wearing seatbelts. Things got awkward for me real fast.
Also got to sit and listen to them debate a bunch of racist sh...

For the second year in a row, and the third in the past four years, I’ve tried and failed to ignore college football from abroad. This year I’m doing it from Madrid. If there are any other Madrileños out there trying to watch games, hit me up!
Feels like I’m about the only LSU fan who doesn’t min...

Sounds like you feel [b]entitled[/b] to having a football player stay with the team you like, even if it’s not in that player’s best interest.
Also sounds like you’re letting a 19 year old playing an amateur sport get to you. Snowflake.
This is fun!...
