I have to disagree. Just as it's not the dog's fault for behaving like a dog, nor is it the toddler's fault for behaving like a toddler. Yes, children should be educated about proper behaviour around dogs, but learning takes time and toddlers are unpredictable by nature. A bite of that sort is a result of a failure…

I don't know. It's a bit much to expect a two year old to recognize what a dog is feeling. A responsible dog owner should closely monitor all interactions between their pet and children of that age to prevent bites like that.

Bad corpse! Bad corpse! Stop scaring Smithers!

Well that's a shame. Let downs like that always suck.

It's one of the best moments in the episode, musically.

Wow. What an incredible interview. Living history.

Sounds like a fascinating article.

I found a nicotine inhaler invaluable when I was quitting. Good luck! It's a bitch but you'll feel so much better when you get to the other side.

I am stunned that people can delude themselves so badly.

My Kobo handled it pretty well. Touch the number, get taken to the footnote, press return, get returned to where you left off. Very readable.

The world develops over the course of the books, but there isn't one central plot to worry about. Each book is a self contained story. There are recurring main characters who are developed in their own sub series, but most of those can even be read out of order. Mort, Guards! Guards! and Wyrd Sisters are the first…

Well I hope we both find some relief

Depends on how you define "standalone". Yes, it's the first book featuring an all-new character, but the setting and some supporting characters have been developed over several books. Either way, it's a great book too and I'm glad you enjoyed it.

I am in Ben Grimm's position. I am so envious that I find myself hating you.

I've met a few comic people through my old comic store job. Jeff Smith is a really nice guy.

I served some celebs at my comic book store. Robin Williams came in incognito. It was weird, before I recognized him, I talked to him like any customer. Once I realised who he was, my hands started to visibly shake. I apologised for being a little starstruck, he said "Hey, that's okay.". Nice guy. David Carradine…

My GF is an introvert who hates horror, so we stayed in all day. Made pumpkin pancakes for breakfast while watching The Nightmare Before Christmas and the 1978 animated classic Witch's Night Out. We made pumpkin cream cheese cookies and decorated them in Halloween colours. Watched Psycho and afterwards carved jack…

Worst. therapist. ever.

A check up can't hurt (too much) and it's nice to get a clean bill of health. Alternatively, if it turns out there's a problem, the sooner you can start dealing with it, the better.

Oh god, I also have what I thought was a fungal infection slowly taking over my right hand. I've been treating it with anti-fungal cream every day and while it stops the itching, this crap just refuses to die! It's been a year now!
