She looks like they confused her with some sort of canine(or feline)-human hybrid or something.

Um. Wow. Completely mesmerizing to watch.

What the hell is that from?

CA has yet to have any substantial rain to be thankful for.

Freezing pumpkin is the only way that I can even make pumpkin pie for Thanksgiving or Christmas because the heathens out here in CA only sell pie pumpkins in October. I've had the checkout ladies look at me crazy every time I buy the, because "oh, that's a pie pumpkin, not for decoration, there's other ones that are…

Then again, that's pretty much how I was raped too, by a friend of a "friend".

All three were avian vets, with tons of experience. And they still said we should put him down because "even if he makes it, he will never be the same."

What's your advice for parrots? We had 3 different vets tell us to put down our African Grey. He was only 3 at the time, was losing weight, and couldn't eat. However, after some literature digging and experimental treatments to narrow down the possibilities (my fiancee and I are both graduate students in the…

Out of curiosity, what do you mean by "protestant christian"? "Protestant" typically refers to any Christian denomination that is not Catholic (or Eastern Orthodox). The name is literally derived from protesting against the Roman Catholic Church.

So, the entire point of the people in these stories being "dumb", is that when you cook with alcohol, there should be no alcohol left over because alcohol is what chemists consider "volatile" (no, it doesn't explode) and evaporates very quickly, even at low temperature. As long as your dad isn't eating anything…

That's what my parents advised me to do since my "full-ride" scholarship to a private university only covered ~1/2 the tuition and living expenses (neither of them had went to college). What I didn't know is that you are not eligible for full-ride scholarships to many schools when transferring from a community…

Yes, it's called Gerrymandering.

1) It wasn't a fatal dose, but it was enough to cause a seizure (a common side effect), which is what killed the guy. He was already on the verge of cardiac failure due to a punctured lung and internal bleeding, so it's not the same as giving a healthy person 75mg.

Addy had the best stories!!

My mother and grandmother didn't need a switch, they had designate spanking paddles, painted all "pretty" and everything. The one my mother used was blue with white spackle and pink roses.

Ah, these stories actually make me miss waiting tables. You got to see the worse in people, but you also got to see some of the best. I worked for 4 years at a local brewpub during undergrad, 2 years as a host, and 2 years serving/bartending. There was a sweet older couple that came in nearly every Friday night. I…

Basically, they caused an allergy in the mother (eggs), and then exposed the mother to the allergy while the mother was breastfeeding the child. This resulted in really low rates of allergy to the same substance (eggs) in the child than if the mother either did not have the initial allergy or was not exposed to the…

Yeah, we aren't even married yet, and I hate his father. He's an asshole 90% of the time and expects me to drop work or other plans at the drop of a hat for their family functions and whims. Everyone just makes excuses for him because he's diabetic. Trust me, it's not all low blood sugar. However, I find myself…

Yeah, there's a reason why milk nurses were common even among poor people prior to modern times. Some women just can't produce any/enough milk for their infant.
