What people don't often realize is that warmth with a comforter or blanket is not in it's thickness, but in the layers. Kind of like layering up to go outside in the winter, a thin bas...

Is having it designed by Yves Behar supposed to make it more expensive or better? After all, it's just basically copied off of 50 years of skateboard and deck history. I could make a fake skatebo...

I will NEVER buy one of these machines again. After my wife and I got married, we got a "coffee"/espresso machine that boasts that it makes "crema coffee" which they also make some abs...

I just discovered Left Hand earlier this summer at a bar in NYC called Rattle N' Hum. They have a great beer selection there, I think it's something like 48 on tap, and Left Hand is a brewery that...

Ehh, not my style. And yes, this does take money. I'd like to see what her digs looked like pre-Bravo.

That chair is awful. There's really no other word to describe it. Just awful.

Fortunately for me, the only utensil I never use in my kitchen is my fire extinguisher. I'm a huge believer in not owning single-purpose utensils. However, I do admit that I own a flo...

That place just looks cold and uncreative. It kind of looks like a McDonalds.

We do no shoes in out apartment, but at the same time, we don't flip out if people don't take off their shoes. Unless, of course, it's raining outside, then I insist people take off their shoes. ...

Yeah, a real review or some customer reviews would be great. My wife and I would like to reduce our wires, but I have repeatedly read nothing good about any wireless systems. I keep...

Cool to look at once, but if this were my kitchen, I'd want to stab myself in the eye and sprinkle lemon juice on it every day. Couldn't live there.

I'm sorry, but the rum IS NOT optional.

You can do that yourself easily for a third the price. Just go to any antique store and search through the random section that always has old shipping and grocery story shipping pallets.

Yes, that is ridonkulous. Plus the fact that the chair looks absolutely WORN. And it's not a nice "lived-in" look. It looks like it was in a home with kids who jumped on it all the...

I was so happy to see her go. Her whole tirade about not wanting to compete in the bachelor/bachelorette party challenge was so obnoxious. I don't want to make this a political disc...

I now use a magnetic knife rack, so no longer have that issue, but when I did have a block, I used to store them sharp-side-up. I found a couple times pulling them out I'd get a few splinters. Al...

I never realized "OCD-chiq" was a new design style. I see what they're going for, but it's just not done well. Off to the right, you have that oddly placed and not well-ba...

Oh, that would look really cool on a pati....OH WHAT, $300??!?!?!?!???? No way in hell I'd pay that for a marginal-at-best designer who nobody knows who the hell that is anyway. ...

There's a restaurant in NYC called Barrio Chino (that in my opinion has the best Mexican food in the city). Barrio Chino has Chile in Nogada, and like an above poster said, it's a wa...

Maybe if I had guests over and wanted to display fruit I'd do this, but fruit in my house either ends up in my belly or in the garbage. Especially grapes (the belly, of course). But...
