This is my favorite thing I’ve read in this whole page! Love your grandmother.

Agreed. I don’t know the ins and outs of building practices in that part of the world, but putting linoleum over dirt just is not going to work. It would be all lumpy and uneven the moment people started walking on it. The pictures really added nothing but confusion to the story.

Here, here! I’m on my third: original Moto X (from the Google-owned days) —> Moto X (2nd gen) —> Moto Z Play  (I had an iPhone 4 prior to these that, in my opinion, was the last time Apple was a true innovation leader in the smartphone game).

It was probably made by this guy:

You’ve really hit on something here, Ms. McDonough. I, and evidently many others commenting here, enjoyed this sort of second-hand experiencing of horror movies.

Hey, that’d be a damn fine way for the mall in question to help amend this, and even get some good press out of the situation! You work in marketing or something? 

I’d love to believe that he has formed a strong network of friendships through his time at SNL that could keep him right side up, but that wasn’t enough to save Chris Farley.

Mostly agree with your assessment, but let’s not forget what an asshole Clark is to his poor yuppy neighbors. I love the film, but also identify with those would-be happy, child-free, neighbors if not for their lives being tormented by the insane family next day. And this is why my personal battle cry is:

Makes me wonder what percentage of Lamborghinis, in total, are purchased with dirty, ill-gotten money. 25%? Maybe more?

It’s part of a cat-like alien race called the Flerken, and its name is Chewie. In the comics, Chewie belongs to Carol Danvers (a.k.a. Captain Marvel), and has the ability to create pocket dimensions inside his tentacle-filled mouth.

If he was using it for work and depended on it, he should have used some of those earnings to keep up with payments.

Incorrect. 

I take your point. This isn’t something as standardized as, say, the luminous release handle found in every car’s trunk. With how conservative and resistant the DOT is to any innovation, I’m a bit surprised they allow for electric door releases at all. 

People are losing the ability (or are not being taught) to think critically.

I have three fire extinguishers in my house. I’ve never had to use one, but I think it’s pretty important to know how to operate them if I NEVER actually have to.

Wow. Just....damn.

Is that cost entirely for a service to come in and exterminate, or is part of that cost having to replace furniture, rugs, mattress, and other items that cannot be effectively cleaned?

They are an interesting pest but in truth how much of a health risk are they? I’ve read they can’t carry any disease and don’t make people sick (apparently even when injected with cancer, the cancer dies, IIRC). So, the are an INDICATOR of uncleanliness and certainly an awful experience (hey, stop biting me and…

Interesting gray area in sports. I think the case is clear for this incident, and probably most motorsports since things can quickly get deadly, but physical violence is built in to many sports: hard checks, tackles, collisions (football, soccer, rugby, even baseball) and then there’s the straight up fighting in…
