Wrong. Those "vertical" cuts should be radial, towards the center of the onion, not straight up and down as demonstrated in this video. If you do that, the size is consistent, and you never have to cut towards yourself.

And this man was a chemistry prof? In what decade? He's wrong.

Quick note to all you wannabe servers: In Oregon, restaurant workers start at the state minimum wage of $8.95 per hour and they get tips on top of that. This $2.13 an hour crap is bullshit and we need to let our government know.

Diesel engines cost more than (similarly sized for power) gasoline one?

I'm using firefox on a mac and all I see is the slider in a big empty white area.

Please Sony, for me, will you finally make a 17 inch wide rectangular ES version of the playstation so that I can put it in my stereo cabinet and have it look like it belongs there? Aluminum instead of plastic, big heatsinks, maybe a couple of other "extras" like a big hard drive to make it "ES". I've been waiting for…

I totally forgot about glue guns and caulk guns. (Am I allowed to say "caulk" on Jezebel?)

Oh for fucks sake. Really? This is a hand-held bubble machine that has a handle and a trigger because that's a handy shape; not because is in any way intended to resemble a weapon. Would you like the auto-shop in your local high school to stop using a timing light because it also has a handle and a trigger? Perhaps…

All of the criticisms of your (bad) idea left out the fact that with your plan you would also be boiling shrimp shit in your water. That "vein" that the author kept talking about? That's a euphemism.

"With an estimated 100 thousand million stars..."

So, exclusivity is what makes a view "good"?

As always, you're fantastic. Thanks for making me smile today.

Not just telephone conversations. This could also work if there was a television or radio on in the background, or if the conversation was being held within earshot fluorescent light fixtures. Or anything with an electric motor...

They have. But, as they are billions of light years away from us, the light that they made when they were stars is only getting to us now. When we look at those stars, we aren't seeing them as they are today, we are seeing what they looked like billions of years ago. Observing them can tell us a lot about what the…

That's why afterward you get them to sign a release and pay them a few hundred dollars and tell them that they get to be on TELEVISION OH MY GAWD TELL YOUR FRIENDS right after they are done with the hidden camera prank show thing, but before they have a chance to think about it.

transuraniums? Isn't the term "transuranics"?

I just got mine from Le Cruset a few weeks ago and I love it.

iTunes for windows is a piece of shit.

Uh... 'Cause he says that he's in Spokane?
