They’re all actually Strom Thurmond. He never died. Just kept sloughing off bits of himself to create new senators.

You have proof?

You’re one weird mofo. How the hell do you know what cat pee taste like? Never mind, don’t wanna know.

No, wash cloths help to exfoliate the skin and remove bacteria that can be both harmful and the cause of lingering stank. Just rubbing soap on your body does not make one clean.

We didn’t always say nice things, and sometimes we were downright mean. Sometimes I just vented about frustrating experiences in an immature, hateful, and foolish way. It was in particular a breach of trust to post intimate details about lovers. I was naive enough to think it’d stay anonymous, and I was wrong.

That makes two of us. Does one flick, as if flicking someone in the nose? I can’t say I have ever come across a vagina flick. Is this something people actually do?

wait like

Unless the fan in that rumor was nude, wouldn’t she have flicked her on the labia or pubic mound? (Sorry, I get irritated by people calling the whole of the female genitalia the “vagina”.)

Turns out Charlotte was just trolling Wilbur the whole time.

“Oh please, humans. Why would you assume we spiders don’t understand textspeak? We’ve been on the web since before you evolved”

We need to trot this story out whenever some politician or talking head complains about government regulations and/or interference in the free market.

You sound like me, Esther. I loved Anne of Green Gables so much as a child that I forced my parents and my Canadian aunt and uncle to take me to Prince Edward Island one summer. I had a BLAST. I still have the special box set my parents bought me there as a birthday present.

My oldest was born in the late 90s, and literature hospitals and pediatricians would give you about household safety and first aid were still recommending keeping ipecac in the house then, too.

I’m an ‘80s child, and I still recall ipecac being on the list of household first aid kits in case of poison ingestion. I guess it takes some time for corrected medical/ safety information to filter.

This is why the History Channel should bring back How the States Got Their Shapes.

I am an atheist agnostic. I think my belief is mostly that I know that there is no god, but it's okay for others to believe in it and I acknowledge that conventional science is still far from proving it (and honestly does not need to).

Upper Cumberlands represent!

Oh, wow, this is beautiful. There has to be a book or at least a website out of this.

There were a LOT of cotton-related factories in the rural south, even through the mid-1900s. Every city of a reasonable size had at least one.

Did I miss the end result of this conversation? Did your grandmothers work at the same factory? I can't be the only one waiting...!
