This is a terrible tragedy.

That Alan Cumming video is the best fucking thing to happen to me all day.

YES. OMG, why are tampons so fucking expensive? Hate. Luckily the custodians at work like me (and my office puppy), so they brought me a whole box of 'em to stash in the office so I didn't have to trek across the building to the only bathroom with a tampon dispenser. They're the very uncomfortable cheap cardboard

Truth.

Jesus. I started crying when I saw them tie him down, and just lost it the moment he had a physical reaction to the tube. Seriously, I can't even look at a picture of him without crying now. I am absolutely shaking.

Oooh, mine too! He likes to get drunk, call me, and leave a voicemail along the lines of, "You love your stepmother more than me. If it weren't for me, you wouldn't even be in this goddamn country (I'm adopted). All of you only want me for my money. Well, joke's on you, because none of you are getting anything.

Oh, God. Fuck PETA.

"Blinkers people, blinkers! Thy were put on your car for a reason, so USE THEM!! #roadrage."

Nope. It makes you AWESOME. Golden Girls references are the best, and will always be the best. My goal is to become Sophia!

5/8! But only because I tried to base it off what bits of clothing I could see him wearing, and make judgment calls about when what was in fashion. I just totally blocked out his face. Because it was unhelpful for the quiz-taking purposes.

Oh, God. I also didn't like Bridesmaids. Actually, I turned it off. I've never finished it. It just didn't seem like a good use of my time.

Do you remember that one "scary" story when we were kids? About a person that adopted what they thought was a street dog from Mexico, but found out was actually some kind of weird rat?

I mean...I think it is. I hated Talladega Nights. I don't think I ever saw Old School. I did like Zoolander. It wasn't even so much Will Ferrell that I liked, but the supporting cast.

It's unlikely you'll be able to. In the original article, as well as the original opinion, they make a point to note that they're only arguing patentability on cDNA with regards to the "natural" argument. There's 35 U.S.C. 103, which states something along the lines of, "If anyone that has typical training in this

Complementary. Complementary complementary complementary. Not complimentary. cDNA is not all, "Oh wow, I love your shoes!" I mean, it would be nice. "Good job setting up that PCR, flyingbuttresses! You rock!" Science would be much more awesome if that was the case.

Well, but if you read the whole decision, they're not saying that cDNA is patentable.

Or at least don't add the like, 50,000 inches they ask you to add. I mean, I'm assuming modern bra manufacturers still account for this TOTALLY UNNECESSARY MATH when they make the bras. So with my 30" band size, I can mostly get away with 32" bands, which is like, a 2" difference. Not 4 or 5" like I see a lot of

Don't add inches to your band size when you're measuring under your bust! I used to do that all the time, and that meant I was "supposed" to be wearing a 34, even though 32s felt too loose (I'm really a 30, but those are hard to find in smaller markets without shopping online!). Turns out adding inches to your band

I absolutely lose it when an animal dies, or even almost dies, in any movie. I have watched most of them only once, like Old Yeller, Bambi, etc. The Great Mouse Detective scared me (I think they almost got smushed by clock gears?), and I haven't watched that again either. I STILL start crying during Homeward Bound

And it's not even really a sample size of 3. It's three different variables (meth use, crack cocaine use, and diet soda use) with an n of 1 for each. I guess if you generalize to acid-containing substance abuse they can claim an n of 3.
