KAs generally have a lifetime warranty on the motor, but if you are using yours that much, upgrade to a 610. Those suckers have the strongest commercially available motor out there and are good through twelve batches of cookies before overheating.

The OXO V-blade is on sale at more places for around $40. It does three different thicknesses, crinkle-cuts, and juliennes. Above that, there's DeBuyer, which has a version available that does waffle-cuts.

Dude, you live in a land of EPIC drought, wildfires, mudslides, *and* earthquakes. You're not getting your money's worth on the plague-avoidance front.

So anyone who springs for that $1 million wedding is getting divorced the day they get back from Bora Bora?

Pants were also for barbarians.

Articles like these (and the dumbass MRA responses they attract) remind me of the Louis CK bit where he says that a woman dating a man is analogous to a man dating a bear. Just because the bear for the night isn't going to eat you (#notallbears) doesn't mean the next bear won't. And there's no real way to tell which…

Self-defence.

You would think Nevada would be down with marriage equality for pure fiscal reasons. Imagine all the additional drive-thru marriage licenses (and thus fees!) that would be issued! You'd have Judy Garland impersonators right up there with the Elvis impersonators performing ceremonies every 15 minutes.

Trying to curtail the benefits one gets from being married would be cutting off their noses to spite their face. Both because a huge part of their constituency is is married and strongly supports "traditional" marriage over cohabitation, and because reducing marriage rights will reduce incentives for people to get…

Oh, trust me, you'd be leaving the house at least once every 28 days...

If only this logic worked on mall shoppers. I work at a High-End Culinary Store that gives out many, many, many free samples and we don't get anywhere near that kind of jump in sales. Instead, we get hungry teens who aren't going to buy anything anyway, mothers letting their little monsters eat as much as they like,…

I will be fascinated to see how this plays out in countries that have strong sex-selection preferences for males. Will the increase in miscarriages lead to a lower birth rate overall as female fetuses are selectively aborted and male fetuses miscarried, or will the male:female sex ratios as a whole become less skewed?

Personally, I'm waiting for the Kim Kardashian: Hollywood movie. Directed by Kanye, naturally.

I send you virtual coconut milk rice pudding, since it is dairy and gluten free and nomlicious.

This is why Elvis invented the Vegas drive-through wedding. Or perhaps have a nice destination wedding where you comp the travel of those you actually like and everyone else has to pay.

The obsession with making phones bigger now is the worst. Yeah, I know some people want a bigger, flashier screen, but that shouldn't be the only consideration. I mean, I chose my current phone specifically because it fits into my tiny, tiny hands.

Sherlock reference FTW!

I'd like to point out that even if mercury were in vaccines, it takes a large dose for it to be toxic. Which is why tuna is safe to eat in moderation. Besides, most mercury poisoning occurs because of inhalation (mad hatters), not consumption or injection.

Besides, hard cider is much tastier.

Someone once tried to make the "starving kids in Africa" argument to one of my friends. He asked if the Goods & Services Fairy would bring the leftover food on his plate to get to them.
