I’ll hold the bag open for you!

$115 and looking stupid would be totally worth it for me - I literally cannot sit in the back seat of a car, sit in the front seat of a car at night, or sit in any bus or plane seat where I don’t have an unobstructed view of a window visible while facing slightly off straight ahead. I get motion sickness just thinking…

It’s like the Sam Vimes Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness:

That was my question - if the gauntlet gives him infinite power, at the very least he could use it in a targeted manner. Like, instead of (presumably) random selection, direct it to disappear the people who are using the most resources/affecting the environment the most negatively/evil. Hell, if it’s that powerful,…

I’m in a very similar situation - I’m 34, he’s 29, and sometimes it is SO FRUSTRATING to be with someone who thinks he’s already reached the appropriate level of wokeness, who describes himself as ‘somewhat woke’ to his shitty male friends, and who metaphorically rolls his eyes whenever I go off on something shitty.…

I grew up birding at home (that is, we never went on any birding outings, but my mom went fucking nanners and set up a 40-foot line with a couple dozen feeders, plus one of those bird feeders with the one-way mirror where the birds technically come into the house, and played the Birding By Ear CDs ad nauseam) and it’s…

OOOOO oh man, I know what I’m doing this weekend! Thanks, everyone!

Hijacking this alcohol-related thread to ask a question.

‘Palazzo pants’ my arse. Palazzo pants are flowy. This is some JNCO/Phat pants shit.

Excuse you, that is not our police blotter. Our police blotter is the Incident Report site where Joel DeSpain holds court.

Living in Wisconsin can be emotionally rough sometimes (Paul Ryan, Ron Johnson, having had the state go to Trump), but Mark Pocan and Tammy Baldwin being my Congressman & Senator warms the cockles of my shriveled little heart.

That’s why it seems so weird to me that the apparent rule was ‘kill off all the new characters’ (unless the intention is that all the new guys come back from being ‘dead’ and become the successors to the original Avengers post Infinity War Part 2). 

I just re-watched Ragnarok the other day and all I could think about was how Infinity War completely ruined the end of it and how weird it was that we don’t see anything of Korg, Miek, and Valkyrie in IW because it would be so stupid to kill off Korg & Miek, and don’t we already know that Valkyrie is in the next one?

Ooo, thank you!

Please share where you got them, because I have been dying to add some to my wardrobe!

I hate when first-time owners put two of these guys in the same tank. The smaller one may look subservient, but eventually they’re going to tussle. One nip and you can say goodbye to that voluminous golden dorsal fin.

One time, a few years after my sister had gotten her license, she was driving with my father in the car. She went to switch lanes and turned to check her blind spot and he FREAKED OUT and yelled at her for taking her eyes off the road and told her she should never do that. He’s been a professional short-haul truck…

Professional chronic migraine sufferer here - I 100% second the ‘sometimes the side effects are worse’ notion. My headache dr prescribed sumatriptan and it was AWFUL. I’m still convinced that the way it works is that you’re so glad to go back to the migraine after the sumatriptan wears off that it feels like an…

Oh, hey, another me! We should form a club!

My current least favorite one is when I get a charity solicitation in the mail that is designed to look like a bill, complete with remittance slip and account number. It really makes me mad because I know there’s people out there who won’t understand that it’s not a bill.
