I developed a handful of weird allergies in my mid 20's to things that never bothered me before, one of those things being eggs, which I discovered when I got my mandatory flu shot when I worked in a group home. I was sicker than two dogs and my throat and tongue started to swell. Weirdly it backed down without…

I don't have kids, but as someone who has had a bad allergic reaction to a shot, I would be scared to give my child a lot at once just because if there is a reaction, it would be harder to pinpoint what it was. Is this a completely baseless thing to be concerned about?

Between that, the incident with the female frog and the polar bear drowning from lack of ice floes, I was sufficiently depressed and creeped out. Nature is brutal.

Ugh I was creeped out for DAYS after I saw that. thanks for reminding me, jerk.

That bit about it being a persistent myth as a cancer cure was news to me. Somehow I've never heard that one before.

I want to hate that but I just can't. It sounds like her dad was sweet and loved her very much. My dad took me to Boldt Castle in the 1000 islands when I was a teen because he knew I loved castles and that he would never be able to afford to take me to a real one. It was one of the best days I can remember.

I'm a 7 and I see gold and blueish white on my computer. However, if I look at it on my phone, it's suddenly blue and black, so I there is more to the technology end than most people are considering.

YOU GUYS it's dependent on what you're looking at it on! I saw white and gold on my computer, but on the iPad at an angle it's blue and black. I feel like I got played.

Dude, they're Franciscans. I went to a Franciscan university and the brothers were generally the first to show up our keg parties with their own tankards in hand. Show me some Trappists having a rousing water balloon fight and I'll be impressed.

Oh gosh, I was you. I used a shitty Rolleiflex that I bought at auction that only had one working shutter speed while my classmates were toting Hasselblads. I also cleaned the bathrooms and bartended at all openings to help pay off my chemistry bill. I totally feel your pain. If anything(and I'm sure you've heard…

But the answer to the question of what color is the dress in the photo is still white and gold.

I don't see any black on this dress. Just gold and white striped. I can't tell if I've bought into some prank or if I'm brain damaged.

I deal with some of these issues at my job. I digitize rare materials for a special collections department, the staff of which is generally old monied and proper, and I am totally viewed as low rent by most all of them. Occasionally I am asked to go to large unveilings to mingle with donors, and the kind of stress I…

seconded.

You really brighten my night. I know it sounds creepy, lame and gushy, but my job sucks and it's so cold and dark right now you and your insanity make it all a bit better. I'm crossing my fingers the wind stays put.

Hey Mark, are you the new night dirtbag person? Cause I gotta say, I finally get home from my shit job about the time it posts and it seriously raises my spirits so damn much.

I was rear ended pretty badly last year and got knocked around a bit. While we were all standing around looking at the damage, a firefighter asked me more than once if I was ok. I was dazed and sore, but didn't want to come off as a hysterical overreacting woman, so I said I was fine. All I could think of was being…

I abandoned working towards a career in environmental communication and have come to pretty much the same headspace. Sad and freeing is a pretty good way to describe it.

Honestly, it looks like a punchy slide film like Kodachrome.

Kodachrome!
