Aha!
I always wondered why I had no resemblance to my mother's husband.
You wrote that you definitely met my mother...
Are you, perhaps, my father? My name out in the real world is "Luke". Might your name in the real world be "Anakin"?

A chain? I wasn't talking about eating at places like that. Upscale and chain "restaurants" don't really go together in the same sentence.
We are obviously talking about very different situations

Reply to LPT request: Moving out of the city for the first time at 18 in a rented apartment, any tips? by GauravxAg
My favorite saying is "habits are for lazy people". Being said start good habits from day one. Clean as you go, immediately throw trash away. Don't let laundry pile up(they have pods and I suggest buying them over liquid detergent).The diffuser is a great thing, no chance of fire(unless you're a complete idiot). Maintenance everything you can(you'll thank yourself later). Use cleaning vinegar instead of bleach also I use hydrogen peroxide on everything as well. If you don't want to do dishes buy paper plates and plastic silverware.

I care. Just fold them. It's easy once you know how.

Reply to [LPT] if you're too broke to tip you're too broke for delivery. You never know what number stiff you will be for that driver... I am on my 10th stiff out of 11 deliveries today. All future stiffs for the day will have their food sitting in front of my AC the whole drive. by productoffallout
OP can put a stiff one up where the sun don’t shine

Reply to LPT: If you are having trouble in your marriage, one of the first things a counselor will suggest is to take a trip together to where you went when you were first starting to court each other. by Clazzo524
I watch a lot of Forensic Files and Crime Watch Daily and I know a bunch of women who were murdered on a trip like this. The husbands always suggest it. I don't encourage anyone to do it, but that show made me paranoid.

Learning how to prepare tasty food at home before moving out really helped me a lot. Bulked me up a lot too but not so hard to get back in shape when young and full of energy. Get mom’s recipes that you like and put your own spin on them.

You have clearly never met either my mother or my wife. I can assure you, they both care very much. I fought the good fight — and I lost.

This actually works!

I was trying to repair my oven lately, couldn't get the new heating element to mount correctly. Started shouting at the oven in general for being such an uncooperative box. It cowered in fear, and I immediately realised that my main problem is that I have a severe mental illness.
