This made me hate you a bit. Well done.

And that's in the GTA. Imagine in Winnipeg, or Calgary, or—never mind, there's no black people in Vancouver. Hockey's the only game in town (during the 8 months of winter).

My butter secret: I microwave the butter before popping and spread it as it pops. Even distribution!

I'm an engineer and I'm almost suspicious of how easily this removes a cork. Magical corkscrew, I remain unconvinced that you aren't breaking some law of thermodynamics!

I love that they come in all different sizes, and Bodum even makes travel cup ones! Brilliant.

That's what we did growing up, but my mom instilled a healthy fear of oil burns in me (butter point is well taken, however). Fortunately, I've had mine for about 8 years and it's still running!

Popcorn popper. It's the best: easy, healthy popcorn at your finger tips, with the excitement of late popping kernel explosions in the bowl.

I'm not usually one to complain about magazine covers, but my god, the expressiveness of Farrow's shot! Beside her, Swift looks blank, like any emotion has been air-brushed away.

You should be very, very concerned.

Both *islands.

Shit, I replied with this elsewhere but your second paragraph is spot on for me. Still working on it now in my mid-thirties, on accepting that having needs doesn't make you weak and pathetic and desperate, it just makes you human.

Of all my guy friends and my girl friends, it was always the man in the relationship who pushed for marriage, and then kids. The myth of the non-committal man has always baffled me.

Yeah, I'm in my mid-thirties now and had a revelation a few years back that, in many ways, I was trying to be a cool girl because it was better than being That Girl.

Most insufferable NLCS ever. Ugh.

As someone who followed him on twitter in the early days, I am completely unsurprised Ansari is dating a chef with a Tex-Mex pop-up. I think this is the one, you guys.

And yet so very many.

I never actively hope that players get hurt except those very special ones that have earned it. Roethlisberger and Josh Lueke top my list.

As a female sports fan who would love the same in a partner, I think guys really would be surprised to know that male sports fans aren't as ubiquitous as they think.

Exactly this. Players deal with shitty, but consistent strike zones all the time. It's the 'consistent' that's rub here, which the ump was not, on a key call.
