The Germans always have this shit covered.

It’s weird watching him slowly develop real self-awareness. Maybe, in a decade, he’ll resemble a decent human being.

It’s piss and blood.

People who sing in public are the worst. No one wants to hear your out of tune ass serenade people trapped with you on a train or in a restaurant or a store. Unless it’s “Happy Birthday To You” and you are bringing me a desert with a candle in it, shut the fuck up and restrict your tone deaf warbling to the confines…

Dismissed, blocked, and flagged for hate speech.

Is it ok if I support the Episcopalian church voting no on gay marriage, so long as it is because I don't wish any gay person to ever have to suffer being Episcopalian?

Yes! If you’re going with basic tea at least pick PG Tips or Yorkshire Tea or something.

Basically my Saturday

If you are ghosting someone because they’ve done some heinous shit to you and you have had it and there’s nothing left to say? Absolutely harder to do the ghosting. The ghostee clearly doesn’t give a fuck about you or your relationship anyway, so they’re not losing any sleep; whereas you, the ghoster, have to sit…

AGREED, five minutes?! What? Sometimes I lose my phone in my own house for hours at a time.

If someone you’re interested in isn’t answering your texts within five minutes, they are either dead, at a movie (and still have manners), or just don’t want to date you.

wow Anna why is gawker so biased in favor of facts and science and medical research

My son is working on a cemetery restoration project, and one of the rules in the official guides to this sort of thing is to refrain from digging along the fence/borders of the burial ground. The reason is because infant/small child deaths were so prevalent, that often there’s a line of small, unmarked graves in these…

I’ve said this here before, but my specialty (pediatrics) exists because getting kids through their first 12 years of life was kind of a big deal for a long, long time. Vaccines have literally changed the entire scope of practice. The doctors that trained me saw things weekly that I’ve seen maybe ONCE. The Pediatric…

Loose tea is great, but I do like the convenience of a teabag at times. My preferred brands are one which also sell the same tea loose, and my everyday workhorse brand is Taylors & Harrogate’s Yorkshire Tea. A friend got me hooked on it back in college. ;-)

And I believe this is the most likely face you give when seeing them pick out the cardboard flavor teas.

I had an American flat mate who told me she couldn’t understand why British people drank tea with milk and sugar when she was younger. She tried to put it in using her mum’s teabags and it would always taste disgusting.

My office is fully set up for afternoon tea. not even sorry. #britishparents

In the last couple years of my grandma’s life, she stopped giving any fucks and would wear slippers out to dinner. She would get up from the table the very instant she finished her food and race out to the car, no matter where in the meal the rest of us were. And she upped her one glass of Sauvignon blanc with ice…
