My friends who are still in the Twin Cities shared pictures of a snow storm yesterday so I’m not missing THAT part of Minnesota Fall, but nothing will be as wonderful as fall along the Mississippi River. I went on one of those tourist river boat tours last fall when I had company in town and it turned out to be…

My sister and I once volunteered at a zoo event where we took turns walking around dressed in differed costumes, primarily animals but for some reason also a Kool-Aid Man outfit. On one of her rounds a little boy ran over and yelled "look mom the Kool-Aid Man!" To which his mother, bless her heart, pointed out it…

Ehhhh risky, I think people out to have a good time may be less amused by someone staging a mildly distressing/uncomfortable scene at the party. I'd say if you want to performance route build it into your costume. A friend's brother got a group together as "running of the bulls" (one dude + a bunch of dudes as bulls)…

The worst! We once got ghosted by our Mrs. White an hour before the Halloween party. Grrrrr

I don't know why but this is the one that really got me. I am wheezing.

This is great - I worked on a project that had notoriously faulty hardware and 3/4 of us on the team (1 team member had no sense of humor) went as parts of our ever broken equipment to the Halloween party. 

Given how every news outlet really trumpeted the ‘Somerville Garden/Plant Thief’ we would definitely have gotten this news.

My parents rented a cabin in the northern part of our state one summer and I drove up for the weekend. After I spent the weekend sleeping on the unlocked, screened in porch they informed me a man convicted of homicide had escaped a nearby prison and was presumed to be at large in the woods :)

When I was in undergrad the dorm across the street from us had a rash of room intrusions where people would wake up with a dude TICKLING THEIR FEET and then he’d just exit. They caught both him and the guy who kept showing up to jerk off in the courtyard of one of the women’s dorms, but it was an exciting semester.

For real though share more plz

One of the only reasons I keep coming back is for the comments - I just skip the blog bit and jump right to the bottom. Now it doesn't tell me how many comments each article has on the front page so....I have no real motivation to click through on my own. They should leave the number of comments on the main page as I…

But the "carnalize" typo is giving me life this rainy afternoons. Hubba hubba onions.

I walked away from FB a long time ago, but prior to that had no luck getting a hateful post removed but they DID take down a totally innocuous breastfeeding picture I posted...

Im actually obsessed with that terrifying Stay Puffed Man meets Blade Runner "tears in the rain" final look there. 

I use Sally's Baking Addiction as my fav - last week I gambled on some REALLY old bananas (they were refrigerated but probably over a month old??) and it was the best banana bread ever (and everyone loved). It was super moist and had great caramel/boubony flavor to it

My dad pulled something similar. Every so often in our house late at night I’d SWEAR I heard the sliding glass door open, which has a very distinctive sound but also a latch lock, a foot lock, and my mom puts a 2x4 in the track at night so you couldn’t slide it even if the locks popped. I finally mentioned it to my…

I read 'Sideways Stories from Wayside School' (AWESOME to be fair) in elementary school and one chapter is about a substitute who has bangs to cover the ear on her forehead that can hear thoughts. To date my greatest irrational fear is that people can hear my thoughts and are secretly hiding a special ear. Dementia…

I took a friend to see the King Kong reboot and not only did she shriek everytime anything remotely unexpected happened, but about halfway through she loudly asked/yelled out “is she going to fall in the love with the monkey?"

I do a lot of solo trail running if I’m on vacation and never thought twice about it UNTIL I was running in bear country and heard a noisy rustling. I wasn’t wearing my glasses and am mostly blind so I started panicking when this young black bear emerged from the woods. I couldn’t clearly see around me to figure out…

Oh my god my friend owned a Hilary Clinton cut out that she was planning to prank a friend with, but that I hadn’t seen. I scared the living shit out of myself borrowing her car early one morning when it was still kind of dark. The trunk would stick so I'd been working and working to get it open and then it FLIES UP…
