On Let's Negotiate!
Professional writers should not write for free. It sets a bad precedent and does a disservice to all writers. And the argument that people should write for "exposure" is bullshit. I built my editorial career by moving up the freelance chain: student newspaper (paid) to alt weeklies (paid) to national publications (paid). If you think your writing is worth something, never give it away for free.

I have phone service and a credit card through Credo, and their customer service reps are the best.

On Clever and Free Costume Ideas (Give Them to Me)
I chopped all my hair off recently, so I'm going to wear a blue nightgown and carry a demon baby doll and be Mia Farrow in Rosemary's Baby. My punny contribution: wear a revealing dress. Carry a dollhouse in one hand and a baseball bat in the other. You're a homewrecker.

On One Day I'll Be Forced to Move Out of This Town
In the three years I lived in New York, the landlady only raised the rent once… by $10/month. Unfortunately, she was also crazy in less charming ways.

On Quick Chat: Car Buying
@kitten_witawip How did you avoid paying taxes on a private purchase? I just bought a car from a coworker, and had to pay the sales tax when I went to the DMV to transfer the title. At the time, it occurred to me that I could make up a lower number for the purchase price, but I think I would've felt guilty.
