Not even Jimmy?

I first heard it in pronounced "jif" from a guy in my college dorm in the mid 90s. I've just pronounced it that way every since. Is it there a generation gap in how it's pronounced? I do catch some flak from my kids about how I pronounce it.

We must. We must. We must increase our bust. The boys will like us better if we wear a tighter sweater.

Well since it's not happening until 2028, people will have plenty of forewarning.

They're upset about all the unused embryos that the IVF process usually creates.

I'm subbed to r/horrorlit and keep wondering if I'm taking crazy pills because it feels like 30% of the posts are some variation of "What's the scariest/best horror book you've read?" They reword it or give it a slightly different spin but it's essentially the same question over and over. And then of course the responses are always the same 40 books being mentioned repeatedly. I don't understand why anyone who's been on the sub for more than a month would keep upvoting the same question.

I made the transition to Linux Mint at the beginning of the year. I just booted into Windows the other day and saw that it had been six weeks since the last time.

Nothing a flask can't fix.

I grew up in a fairly conservative Christian home and was taught that God gives humans the intelligence to use science. There was no big disconnect between science and Christianity. This was the 1980s though...

I had coincidentally purchased a big pack of Clorox wipes from Costco not too long before lockdown. I quickly turned into the Silas Marner of disposable cleaning products.

I know I can lose weight by counting calories. I can count calories and lose weight eating three meals a day. I'm looking for a way to lose weight without counting calories. I was hoping OMAD would be the ticket.

Better than someone with no "real medical training."

I bet some phlebotomists could be convinced.
