I have a friend who told me he did this once- he is a frequent flyer on the Chicago to Atlanta route on Delta. So I sent him a text when I saw this and asked if he thought it could be him. He remembered the incident- it was a documentary about AA Flight 191, and he was sitting in first class when he watched it. And it…

On a flight from Chicago to Atlanta someone watched a documentary on their laptop about a commercial flight that crashed and killed everyone on board. Sounds like a skit from a tv show, but it’s true.

That was my thought. You could eat the egg/chicken/Chilean sea bass, then give it to your local animal shelter or something. (I also think these people were fronting for the camera and would at least consider eating an animal for that much money.)

Lol who uses Morse Code. Pony Express or gtfo

I’m just thinking how long it would take to feed 150 people out of a food truck!

I do research on vocal fry as a masters student in linguistics. Myths about vocal fry (but also women’s language in general) are very frustrating, but especially the fact that it’s a woman-only phenomenon.

The really illuminating part of the This American Life show was when they talked about how it’s not just vocal fry that people complain about. Before that, it was uptalk, and before that, it was using “like” too much. And the thing is, with all three of those trends, they’re things that both men and women do, but they…

If you cast the spell correctly...

Come off it, Chipotle. You’re playing that game of “I can’t pronounce this therefore it’s scary and a faux-ingredient.” Did you know that your burrito bowl contains 2-Amino-5-guanidinopentanoic acid? And it also has 2-Amino-3-sulfhydrylpropanoic acid? IN YOUR BURRITO? I don’t know about you, but I don’t want to buy…

Very low grade stuff right there.

Apu: Today, I am no longer an Indian living in America. I am an
Indian-American.
Lisa: You know, in a way, all Americans are immigrants. Except, of
course Native Americans.
Homer: Yeah, Native Americans like us.
Lisa: No, I mean American Indians.
Apu: Like me.

I decided today to stop visiting and commenting on Gawker sites. “The Post” on Gawker was astounding, and the reaction by writers and editors, as well as the blaring and glaring non-reaction by some, are making me want to take my clicks and give them away elsewhere on the internet. However, I will miss you beautiful…

Can we talk about how many of us were banned for expressing our opinions re: the Gawker piece and *certain* authors’ stance on this issue? But I’m afraid our new accounts will just be banned again. Which sucks. We weren’t calling anyone bitches or sluts or ugly. Nor were we posting abusive images. We were just…

Normally I would want to talk at great length about the cinematic masterpiece that is Clueless, but obviously we have to talk about the Gawker shitshow instead.

Can we talk about this Gawker thing? I really need to talk about this Gawker thing.

Sex was extremely painful because my vulva was constantly sore with the BV! I did successfully get rid of the vaginosis with the boric acid, but ultimately had the damn thing removed because of the urethra pain (picture a three month long UTI where any pain medication does nothing because it isn’t actually a UTI). I…

AHHHH! I feel for you. If by having this, you mean BV, the ONLY thing that cured me after rounds and rounds and rounds of creams and antibiotics (ones that gave me gnarly yeast infections) were boric acid suppositories in vegetable glycerin capsules. Approved for use by CDC, but the info on the proper amounts is…

Earlier this week, Speaker of the House John Boehner (R) trumpeted at a press conference that he would “vomit” if he watched the whole thing, calling it “disgusting.”

“politically correct term for a ghost” has me in stitches. I like the way your mind works.
