I will preface this by saying that I think Jeb, like all his Bushy brethren, is a fucking tool. BUT. In demography research, 'fertility' is a term that describes the number of children actually produced, not the ability to have children. I was confused by it the first time I came across it, because it is synonymous…

Yes to all of that. Now, you were saying something about fancy Game of Thrones cupcakes?

The first thing I thought of when I saw this headline was this little gem from the Toilet Security Administration (TSA) episode of South Park.

I know, I felt similarly guilt-ridden about a related article about the artificiality of the $9 tee-shirt. But I try to by as many of my clothes (and furniture, and home decor, etc.) from thrift & consignment so I can get that $9 shirt without feeling like a troll.

Well HELLO THERE, GORGEOUS. Would that we could all rock lipstick that well.

I did too; I was actually a little bit disappointed when I saw that it was a set of clips.

Yes. YES. Thank you. Jezebel, please hire a dedicated science writer with a Ph.D. in a scientific field!!

Thank you so much for this comment!

I think it might be doing the instinctual kneading behavior that young kittens do when they're nursing from their mothers. The inside of the bowl being a lot more slippery than mom's belly, the kitten probably just started slip & sliding all over the place and then started playing. I'm inclined to think it wasn't a…

Lindy, I really enjoy the majority of your articles. But I would like to renew the clamoring requests of so many jezzie readers that you all hire a science writer. This is a really interesting study and the implications are big in terms of studying aging and immunocompetence; instead of a nice discussion of that, we…

Oh wait. I just saw that you already assigned Beekman, and well played at that.

Two comments to this: 1. Can you even imagine what Krieger's mode of transportation would be in Westeros? I can't, though it would be made of medieval amazingness. 2. Who do you think would play Trudy Beekman? My money's on Lady Olenna.

Blaaggghh! I think I suppressed that. The whole time I was reading the article I thought "Well, it wasn't like this in the book. Just blame whomever at HBO wrote that stupid scene."

You took the words right out of my mouth. Er, keyboard. Fingers. whatever ANYWAYS, I had a furrowed brow during that scene because it was like someone read the Reek parts of SoS and then decided to fashion a high-budget porno out of it. I get that the viewers need to see what a terrible dude Ramsey is without Theon…

I've experienced something like what you describe on a number of occasions, typically if I am dehydrated and especially if I'm dehydrated and I haven't eaten anything for several hours. I'd encourage you to see a doctor and have some basic blood work done if you have the means to do so, since it could also be…

PREACH.

Send me those shoes, and I'll read your stupid book.

WERK.

Don't worry, sweetie. One day you too can be this bat-shit crazy.
