That's a thing with women too, right?

I had to explain Yik Yak to a professor today. I think I at least deserve a cookie.

Last night my husband and I were arguing about an article, and he smiles and says, "Well, I know from long experience I should listen to you, because you always end up being right." I just about cried. It was the nicest thing anyone's ever said to me.

I call that "Cassandra Syndrome," named after Cassandra who was all like, "The Trojans are coming!" and the men were all like, "Uh-huh. Sure babe. Whatever you- AAAGGGHH, A TROJAN IS STABBING MY FACE!"

And here I was all like, "How come Jezebel never issues retractions? Do they just not know?"

To tell you the truth, I only read these articles so I can prep for the inevitable Cracked takedowns that follow.

A PENNY? That's not a tip. Pennies aren't money, they're just metal weights for pants pockets.

I'm going to start one called "Zoogloea." It'll sell aspirational scientific equipment and lab glassware. I'll start with a cashmere lab coat for a measly $4,950.

I was also under the impression that the remains were discovered by archaeologists doing a pre- construction survey (like you do in a city as old as Paris), not just random construction workers.

I would take Margo over Barbara. Margo is delightfully complicated. -_-

I know Mad Men is famous for historical fashion, but... that just doesn't look that "70's" to me. And I say this as a huge fan of tragic 70's fashions.

Give her a handful of horrible crabapples and a bunch of tough, bitter greens. We'll see how healthy she feels after a week of that. Maybe she can leach the tannins out of some acorns for flour while she's at it.

The Q.U.E.E.N. has already perfected the matador look, Madonna. Step off.

Or Cecil Baldwin from Welcome to Nightvale.

Do we even need more "awareness" of domestic abuse? Are people not aware of it? Can you imagine a situation where you're like, "It's sad when wives are abused," and your friend is all like, "WHAT? DOES THAT HAPPEN!?"

"Unfortunately, they mean that some people get sick and some people die," he said.

And grubs! You just can't get a good, fresh grub these days. I have to grow my own next to the cave.

I love him, too. It's going to take a while to reform the whole of the entrenched Catholic leadership, so I don't mind dealing with a few jabs about abortion if it means bringing people together on issues like FGM and climate change.
