To @DoorDash , @UberEats , @Grubhub and other delivery services...if my order is wrong, I do NOT want a refund; I WANT WHAT I FUCKING ORDERED. Work it out with your driver and restaurant as to who was wrong, and just give me what I ordered.

@Chicago_History Anybody who complains about self-checkout better not say shit about full-service gas in New Jersey.

Demands for birth certificate in three...t--never mind, already started.

"We're planning to go to Amsterdam some time," I say to myself. "It wouldn't hurt to learn at least a little Dutch," I think.

Can't wait to say this in Holland:

@foxyjewishmama No matter what the date is, it's not far enough away in the future.

That ride, btw, was the final thing that made me decide to just buy a bike rather than use Divvy.
