I did my graduate work in a small town in eastern Washington. It was a pretty stressful program in a rural area with very little to do. One night I needed to get out and blow off some steam, so ended up joining some friends for karaoke at a local dive bar.

I feel you! My beloved, twelve year old indoor cat mysteriously got fleas this week, and it has been awful! Her behavior changed quite suddenly and drastically over the last week, and I knew something was wrong. Because she's totally indoors and we're at the tail end of flea season here in the PNW, I never suspected…

Maybe it's unfair, but I can't help but think of this woman as a totally unreasonable bridezilla. I mean she supposedly got on not one, but possibly two, airplanes while exhibiting symptoms of ebola after helping to care for an ebola patient in a hospital which supposedly had an appalling disregard for sanitation.…

I don't know...They both look pretty dead inside to me.

Unless he has been living under a rock for his entire life, this man is completely and utterly dumb. I have known that there are multiple ways to cook an egg since I was old enough to mentally comprehend the concept of an egg. We're talking like 3 years old.

I want to be ready and legit for ghost story time.

How do I get out of the grays?

Fake pockets are the worst! Why go to all the trouble of making a pocket-like thing without the utility?

What is up with this seemingly sudden mass turn over at Jezebel?

Maybe you should stop caring so much about stuff getting done. Take on just as many social commitments as he does and let things go for a bit. Try to be casually vocal about how you don't have time to do your household chores, apologize, and ask if he thinks he'll have time to help by picking up your slack. If he…

Doesn't Hulk Hogan almost always wear a do-rag or bandanna to hide his baldness? Looks like he's not up to code.
