You hipster scientists are the *worst!*

It's really mind-blowing just how many people there are out there who are indistinguishable from Bugs Bunny cartoon villains.

If you had been a die-hard 80s-revival Monkees fan, you would have known about this film.

I'm rather ridiculously happy for her. She's a pretty awesome young woman and so far hasn't let any of it go to her head. Carry on, Tavi — break a leg!

Cheaper than tattoos.

Curiously, Churchill was the first to use the abbreviation "LOL" in his response to Lord Fisher.

I was answering the *comment* not the article. But, no, this isn't that because not all men and women friends will end up with one of them falling for the other or falling so hard that there's no way to move on from it if the other doesn't reciprocate. This guy is just too far gone, from the sound of it.

People can drift apart or agree to end a friendship or relationship without destroying it. Staying in a situation that isn't working or is painful will almost certainly lead to an ugly end.

Okay, we'll just say she was concern-trolling the deceased then.

You're welcome! I thought it was a really beautiful story.

Hey, Amanda Craig — want to feel like a complete tool? Read this:

And also, there's this lovely interview out there with Maeve Binchy where she talks about how she *wasn't able to have or adopt kids,* and it was a beautiful story that went on to talk about how she and her husband acted as adoptive grandparents to many of their friends' teenagers. I already loved her and this just…

Bored.

Ha! Awesome. Thank you.

No, he wasn't. Matt Smith is the youngest Doctor ever. Peter Davison was 29 when he signed for the role and Matt Smith was 26 and is currently 29 so still isn't as old as Davison was when his episodes first aired.

I think this is true, too — that even when two people don't think they're attracted, friendship often leads one or both of them to more romantic feelings. I don't think the uninterested party is always ego-driven in the end, but the wanting to keep the friend while rejecting the love-interest part is definitely a…

Last time Galahad saw him, they were *supposed* to be looking for the Grail!

You have had it rough, and I'm very sorry for that.

Ideally, yes. A lot of friendships come to a slow end even when no attraction exists. Clinging to something that's no longer what it was will only lead to resentment and pain, so it's best to move on gently and leave the memories intact.

What utter bullshit. Immature *people* of all genders who don't want to face up to the reality that what they want isn't in the cards will believe any lie they tell themselves so they can continue to string themselves along until they finally pop in ugly resentment and rage that their fantasy isn't coming true.
