One caution on shaving: it hurts/itches like a mother growing back.

Daddy certainly drinks a lot of "coffee"...

I'm not a big prank fan, but this one was pretty great.

Damn. That sucks. I'm from the type of family where we do what were're supposed to and we get screwed in the end...

Chicks...

My parents "lived through the depression," too. As I told my mom after she gave me that excuse for all the mayonnaise jars in the basement, "You were three." My dad grew up in California, where they pretty much didn't feel the effects of the depression: his parents built a 5,000 sq ft house in 1936!

Ouch. I'm hoping that there was insurance of some kind (but probably not, because the world never works that way).

I'm still learning, but I'm digging it.

I've always used baseball scores to slow down orgasm...

I've had a lot of buttermilk go bad for just this reason.

I seem to always have trouble with recipes like this and buttermilk. I'm not sure if fat is a factor, but I can't find Regular Buttermilk. It's always Low-Fat Buttermilk. You'd think the big chains would carry it, but no. Any ideas?

I like the paint smell...

We had to clean out my parents' place recently and it was a great motivator for me as well. I've been going through my stuff and I've tossed (i.e. sold, given away, or thrown out) four large filing cabinets full of stuff. Some items have been with me for three moves over ten years and I've never used them... what the…

This doesn't work for those "Your Windows has a virus" calls. My parents get those all the time. My mother never uses the computer, so it's fine. However, the last time they called, I told them, "This is bullshit. We just had the windows cleaned last week. How could they have a virus? He uses ammonia!" I swear I…

They don't mention another myth: if you don't come in, you'll be arrested. Sure, it's a possibility, but have you ever heard of someone being arrested for not going to jury duty? I would have thought there might be some great urban legends out there, but no...

As the guy was appraising all my parents' stuff for a sale, I kept telling him, "That whir you hear is my mother spinning in her grave." She would have been crushed. It was hard enough watching the appraiser: "Oh, that is so beautiful... look at the detail and it's in such great condition... $200."

Awesome!

Dogs. Big dogs. They love you. They meander around and when you call them, they come. They come to be petted and loved by you until you're tired of them, and then they'll flop down somewhere until you call them again. Plus, you can pet a dog ANYWHERE and he'll love it. Touch a cat in the same place she liked to be…

My parents died last year and we're in the process of liquidating their estate. When we had the antiques appraised we were told 1) There is a glut of antiques out there and 2) nothing is worth what you paid, but what people are willing to pay for them.

And then there are those that make a ton of money making vlogs on YouTube. I don't get it, but they do. I don't know the stats on it, but you get enough followers/traffic, you can make some bank.
