If there is anything in the estate that the vultures might gobble up they will require an original, certified copy of the death certificate in order to provide the greatest possible barrier to you cutting them out of a share. If you don’t send the “right” paperwork, i.e. the paperwork they say is right for the above…

Internets won.

Yeah? How long you been married?

To paraphrase Floyd: “Hanging on in quiet desperation is the married way.”

A man should not endure want
when he has gained his money;
often he saves for enemies
what he has intended for friends;
much goes worse than expected.

That’s awesome. Thank you for sharing.

This is brilliant and seems obvious in retrospect. This would be an awesome thing to do with lean ground turkey or chicken. I love the stuff but a lot of people think it’s too dry and bland. Sadly, I’ll have to do it for myself, the ol’ lady is a mushroom free zone.

I’ll jump on the pimple bandwagon here. I had a red bump on my calf for about two years, then one day it came to a head. Just a tiny little head, so I took a needle and popped it. Over the next three days working on that sucker an amazing array of stuff came out, including pus, something much like find gravel, and…

Gosling’s kinda goofy looking, but he has some sort of charisma. Helen Mirren is the same kind of way to me. She’s not nor has she ever been what I’d call classically beautiful, but I think she’s still the sexiest woman on the planet.

This is not new. Except they didn’t have Photoshop so they used real dead people.

I’m somewhat stunned to find out not only that there are people that wipe ass standing but there are so many. It’s not for me. I do have an amusing wiping anecdote though: spent my entire life wiping right handed until I tore a tendon in my right arm that required surgery and a bionic cagelike appliance that prevented…

Judging from your strongly held fashion convictions, I’m probably somewhere between twice and three times your age, and I own nothing but white socks, what you have decided for everyone are athletic and irregular. Thanks for clearing that up. Not that anyone ever sees my socks what with the Dr. Martens. I can’t really…

Nice. This came at a very appropos time for me as I try to fit the gym into my schedule. I suck at getting up early, and have lots of things going on after work, so work has taken a bit of a back seat as I get it figured out.

Edit: nevermind.

Windows 10 the fastest adoption rate ever? More like Window 8, the fastest user flight rate since Vista. Or ME, not sure there. Not to vaguely threatening Windows 10 upgrade icon looming in the system tray of every machine I own, including Win 7 boxes. A little like Stalin touting Russian communism as the economic…

I amazed that you’re amazed considering the entire business model for insurance companies is to trick people into underinsuring so they don’t have to pay out.

Silent majority? I think the main feature of this election cycle is the Insufferable Minority who I see as an outgrowth of the Tea Party: loud, obnoxious, and not afraid to display their complete ignorance. Or in the words of the High One:

No, I picked Aerospace because it was at the top of the list of the industries with the lowest wage gaps but conveniently also well known as a difficult industry for women to have success in.

Men, in a male dominated society, are encouraged to take more risks than women and are then “rewarded”, by the dominant males, with those extra seven percentage points. Women, on the other hand, are encouraged to conform to male established societal norms and punished for being uppity with those 21 percentage points…

There are three industries in which men are paid a great deal less than women. The exceptions don’t invalidate the rule, though.
