If COTD was still a thing I would nominate this so fast.

Laughing so hard right now. This is the funniest thing ever XD

But don't try this at home, kids.

SOLID GOLD.

This is the best thing I've read all day.

I also heard that the Beach Boys sand castle memorial was washed out at high tide. And the Rolling Stones tribute boulder fell off the cliff it was perched on. And the commemorative statue of the Kinks was torn down and replaced by a chiropractor's office.

"Is it me, or is Modern Woo in a state of crisis?"

Obviously we're doing our own lame claim to fame thread, right? Ok, I'll start. I once smoked the world's smallest joint with the cello player for Flight of the Conchords.

Actor James Garner of Maverick and The Rockford Files TV series, but probably best known to our generation as Old Duke from The Notebook

My bf came home with three different boxes of Captain Crunch! Dinner was awesome.

That's so weird! I watch the evening news off and on, and it's international news - so the big things - then Canada news. That's usually politics, or if something big happened elsewhere in the country. If dead soldiers are brought home, they put that on the news. Then, they do local stuff. First a bit of politics.…

I commented elsewhere, but too many of you have crappy local news.

You're right - we should be bold in saying it, but the stigma is that people who raise these concerns are authoritarian figures who hate children. In my case that could not be farther from the truth.

But what if that kid grew up to be one of the world's top experts in the fight against AIDS?

Yeah, I feel that way, but I did it anyway. And you know what? It's extra-tough to explain why the world is so goddamn shitty to a very smart 9-year-old. I'm afraid she's already a misanthrope, but at least I feel like I'm giving her the tools to improve things. She says she doesn't want to live where we live anymore…

Sounds like you need a break from non-local news.

Wow! How wonderful is that! I live in NYC, so I know I'm lucky to get any raw milk at all. It is just so delicious.

YES YOU MUST TRY KEFIR. It tastes really wonderful.
