They tested them in Chicago (right now they are in hibernation, I guess) and the first or second day there was a serious hit and run where a scooterist ran into a bicyclist and pretty much left him for dead. There was a whole go fund me for the many medical bills. Anyway, seems like every hipster doofus in this town…

Have never done pistol squats. Except years ago when I used to ice skate I did them but they were on ice skates and we called it shoot the duck, I believe. It is a challenge on ice skates but it helped me prepare for sit spins. 

I loved them until you said that. Now I’m like, “Are they just Candies? With fur?” And I don’t know. And, you know, Candies were famous for costing like $20 and $10 for the knock offs. So...$450?

I read that with a real sneer on ketchup. Your intent came through, is what I’m saying. Well commented!

Have lived many hot dog having places. They were, you know, fine. Moved to Chicago and met Hot Dog God! Will never go back. I don’t want your shitty other place hot dogs. I only want this one. But I will try this recipe even though I have concerns about the “bun” element. Still, trying to be more flexible. 

I am with you. Clutching my hot dog rosary as I type...

Kelly Green!

Both! Also peppers. 

You know the theory, everything Trump touches turns to shit. 

I read somewhere that when men become fathers of daughters they get much more conservative. Huh. Exhibit B, I guess (exhibit A is my nephew).

I think your concern is laudable, but I think you are making some assumptions. The high price of something does not mean that it is ethically sourced. Some expensive and custom brands are sourced from plants that use child labor or underpay adult labor. To find out if you are supporting unfair labor you cannot just…

Right. Because she is dead. 

It makes sense that his children would be looking for a good narrative. This is their mother and their father. All of that heartbreak, losing not one parent but both and then one of them actually killed them both. No, that’s really got to hurt. But the NYT is not their kids. They should not be buying into an easy…

$90 for espadrilles? As my Mom used to say, “They saw you coming.” No. Those shoes are not ok. At $9 they are ok. At $19 they are ok. But then they move out of ok-ness (ok-hood?) very quickly. No.

I have seen the movie White Dog. And the first time I saw this dog? I thought of that movie. No joke. 

Also bad plastic surgery is not your friend. I’m not saying she’s had bad plastic surgery, but if she did? It is not her friend.

These are two terrible people. I will elaborate—these are two terrible people who are, vampire-like, sucking the life blood out of each other as well as what little joy and humanity remains in their spirits. And they suck the joy out of others as well. Because that is how terrible they are. If anyone is thinking…

I couldn’t believe that this was Potter Park Zoo in Lansing. Kind of blew my mind. It’s a small, humble zoo is what I am saying. Not one of your fancy big city zoos. Or even the Binder Park Zoo in Battle Creek, MI. I know it from past visits from my time in MI--maybe they’ve embiggened it?

Fifty Shades of Gray is unreadably bad. I feel bad for every other book on this list (yes, even The Help) for being on a list with Fifty Shades. How can a book about kink be so incredibly, constantly, mercilessly boring? No, I never read the other two volumes. No, I never made it through the first one. It’s one of the…

I am kind of starting to love her? Even though I miss Kamala.
