That depends on the type of culturing media.

Well, my father did at least. My mother basically taught me how NOT to treat people, but I'd like to think that I turned out ok.

There was a girl in my kindergarten class who skipped recess on occasion to try to sneak food from our snack cupboards because she was hungry. Of course, when the administration found out she was punished. It was really sad because we would hang out on occasion and I knew her home life was terrible. As a 5 year old…

From my personal experiences, the most rabid pro-Israel crowd is actually fundamentalist, evangelical Christians. They "know" that Israel must exist (and apparently do whatever they want) in order for the 2nd coming to happen.

Ugh. This type of story sets people like my sister up for failure. She's repeated 2 failed relationships so far (1st was from middle school, 2nd was from highschool) because somehow, since she "found" them again, they have to be "the one."

I hear ya. I ended up with a male gyno because when my PCP referred me to an OB/GYN's office for an ovarian cyst, the female OB/GYN she referred me to couldn't see me for 3 months! The cyst was already the size of a tennis ball at this point, so I saw the new male OB/GYN at the office. He was excellent. The surgery…

Well, the only way to treat recurring ovarian cysts is to prevent ovulation so.....could work?

Sam Adams? Really? How about STONE.

SERIOUSLY. I feel like I can't even go out to eat most of the time. (Let alone eat in, my fiancee's family is Hispanic and puts it in everything)

I grew up in Nebraska, and I still DO NOT understand the ranch dressing thing. Everyone slathers it on EVERYTHING despite it being the most vile substance on Earth. I always had great pleasure telling people that we didn't have Ranch Dressing at the restaurant I worked at (we had a homemade substitute called "Creamy…

You are not the only one. I'm right there with you.

Amtrak's prices may look better, but I can't afford to take an extra 3 days off for the added trip time just for one way.

THIS. Why is no one taking this seriously?! I had someone from our ITS department try to tell me that we don't need to conserve water because California has had worse droughts and has gone for little to no water for 50 years before. SO THIS MEANS WE DON'T NEED TO CONSERVE HOW?!

Sorry to burst your bubble, but we need years, if not DECADES, of steady rainfall to get groundwater levels back to manageable. We're basically fucked.

I actually don't think so. When I moved to the LA area, I was shocked as to how racially segregated all of the towns are.

Too me, getting kicked in the balls sounds like the pain I experienced from having a small ovarian cyst rupture. NOT FUN! However, the acute pain lasted at least 2-3 hours.

I was kicked out right after high school graduation too, and I'm female. However, I'd care for my dad because he's a good person, but my mother can suck it.

Yes, all babies. Before a certain age (~1 year?), they all look like ugly, little aliens.

Can't be, that's perfectly normal behavior! Isn't it? Or have I deluded myself.

But, my favorite smells are engine oil mixed with Old Spice (reminds me of my dad) and cooking bacon. Also, one of my favorite sights is a perfectly cooked steak (nice seared outside with a bright red, and slightly purple, center). Does this mean I'm a MAN?!
