These are great, but I have to say that TLo have the best Nina screencaps. (If you are a PR fan and don't read that site you are seriously missing out.) This is an excellent example: [projectrungay.blogspot.com]

Yes, but don't you realize this is how World War I actually started? The real reason Archduke Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated was because she refused to wear a bra. So yeah, I see why this is a big deal.

I was on the subway once when this woman was trying to get out, and the door closed on her stroller. She started freaking out and yelling at the conductor, everyone was scrambling to help her, and then we realized... there was a dog instead of a baby in the stroller. Now, granted, we didn't want the dog to get hurt…

Coming from a position of being acquainted with several brilliant/famous economists whose wives are their editors, schedulers, and general caretakers, I think there's a definite distinction between economists and other "successful" men whose wives' careers take a backseat to their own. First and foremost, it's very…

I wish I'd had a video camera the time I was stranded overnight in the Cleveland airport, when I scaled a wall to sleep in a booth at the Outback Steakhouse (only to realize in the morning I could have just walked in). I am the least coordinated person ever, so it was like in those silly army movies when the…

I'm pretty sure that guy next to him has a boombox around his neck. Was that just random, or does Ewan travel with his own (decidedly low-tech) soundtrack? I'm imagining some Iggy Pop, only because I still identify him with Trainspotting.

Oooh, let's start sending him faxes from "Future Glenn Beck" telling him that all these crazy things he's predicting come true! So he needs to move to a remote desert island immediately or his life will be in danger! #glennbeck

I realized at a pretty young age that sharing DNA with someone does not make them family. My father was physically and emotionally abusive. I am for sure one of the luckiest people, because my mother found the courage to get out of there when I was young and not completely fucked up (just a little), and she later…

@bess marvin, girl detective: Um, have you been to Boston? It's incredibly segregated and racist. Yes, there is racism in the South, but also in the North, East, and West. #interracialmarriageinlouisiana

I hope they wrote paying for years of therapy into the contract for that little boy because he's going to need it after hanging out with fleshbeard.

@envirodesigner: Definitely. The phrase should be something like, "Orrin your Hatch." As in, "This dude came over last night and tried to Orrin my Hatch," meaning when the guy pretends he's going for your vadge but sticks it in your ass instead. I'm open to other suggestions.

OK, I've got a serious nerd-crush on Senator Stabenow. This and her putting the smack down on Senator Kyl about maternity care?! She's my hero. Can we please have more women in Congress (and men for that matter) who will stand up for women's issues? I mean, there are more women than men in this country (about 4.5…

Odd, because when I studied in Paris I thought modern French cuisine was when they had "le fromage du jour" at McDonald's (or MacDo) and added gruyere or chevre to a hamburger. Bof!

"Most of all I'm scared of walking out of this room and never feeling the rest of my whole life the way I feel when I'm with you." Oh the number of times I watched Dirty Dancing when I was younger and felt that way about Patrick Swayze.

@BuyMoreMakeup: I hate the follow-up of, "How did that make you feel?" It made me feel like dog shit, lady, how do you think it made me feel?! Gah.

I think I'm the opposite. I get turned on and want to have sex AFTER men do domestic chores. Oh yeah, iron that shirt in your underwear and then do me.

@heidimontag, @KimKardashian: I love lamp!

I think there was a store in my mall growing up called "Petite Sophisticate." Petite, yes, but sophisticate only in the "my 85 year old grandmother is sophisticated" way. There was definitely nothing like that purple dress.

He's what we southerners would call a "Redneck Dream." As in, he's hot, but dammit, he's a redneck.

@pantsless economist...access RESTORED: "Donger's here for five hours, and he's got somebody. I live here my whole life, and I'm like a disease."
