Kids like small pancakes because pancakes are HUGE BLOCKS OF CARBOHYDRATES that fill up their little stomachs very quickly. I remember my first time trying to eat an adult stack of pancakes when I was a boy and I felt bloated and nauseous for the rest of the day. I don’t even think I ate anything else that day! I…

Try one of these for chopping herbs:

Amen. A good life lesson for everyone is to learn the patience to chop one’s own onions and garlic.

C’mon now, Donaldson is a known provocateur. Not OK to send a bat at him, but Machado had every right to be pissed at him.

Jayson Stark... ;_;

Force users may not be able to fly like Superman, but they can levitate themselves to look like they’re flying for a short distance if they’re powerful enough (Dooku did this in an episode of the cartoon Clone Wars).

I knew people would go after you for this, but thank you for saying it anyway; I was watching the game on Twitter’s live stream and seeing Red Sox fans’ reactions last night was annoying, to say the least.

Wood slipped and fell on the floor from getting out of the hot tub; it was Hunter Pence who walked through the plate glass window! ;-)

Am I the only person who’s never had this ass-on-fire thing happen to them after eating spicy food? Not even a hint of it, and I’ve eaten some spicy things in my time.

(just in case you’re not being sarcastic...)

Barely know anything about hockey, but I feel terrible for this guy. My aunt has MS and I know firsthand how it ruins lives. I hope the advances in treatment stand him in good stead; if he can’t have his livelihood, at least he may still be able to live a reasonably normal life?

It’s as good an Anglicization as any. (if it’s Polish, as I suspect from the spelling, it’s properly pronounced “sh’CHOOR”, but that violates all sorts of English phonotactics so no one’s gonna say it like that.)

I imagine Manny isn’t going to hear the end of it back in Sarasota.

I can’t watch basketball broadcasts because of the squeaking shoes. It’s like Styrofoam or rubbing a balloon; just sets my nerves on edge for some reason.

Drew, thank you for doing the Lord’s work, as usual.

Chicken-in-a-Biskit is the BEST. I don’t care how unholy the marriage is of chicken flavor and crackers. I’ve eaten those things since I was about 7 or so and never gotten tired of them; they’re the only cracker I eat plain.

Really? Even Wal-Mart carries soft corn tortillas in their grocery aisle these days...if you do have access to them and you just mean you can’t get them to bend without splitting, you need to microwave them under a clean paper or cloth towel (dampened if it’s paper) for about 20 seconds to get them flexible.

Totally. Sounded like something he’d say in The Clone Wars.

Italian wedding soup is one of my favorites, even canned.

I’ve heard of artisanal grilled cheese recipes calling for all sorts of fancy mustard.
