I read a piece in a fairly reputable publication (I can't remember which one) that posited the internet loves cats because cats don't try to please, and they look annoyed, rather than eager, when you try to do things with them. That's inherently funnier than eagerness, apparently. Cats' combination of curiosity and…

I'm crying laughing. #fartnotfart is everything.

My (recently sadly deceased, RIP big Frank) cat did that into adulthood. He was OBSESSED with bottle caps, and he would play with them, then collect them one by one and drop them into his food dish. By the time I got up in the morning to feed him and he had finished his night-time hunting, his dish would be full of…

My friend has this book, and it is awesome. We have enjoyed several evenings of reading passages out loud to one another.

I don't think it's a coincidence that Greg Maddux is my all-time favorite baseball player and Peyton Manning is my all-time favorite football player (and to be fair, I didn't seriously get into sports until the 90s, because I was a child, so my frame of reference is only about 20 years old). Annnyway, I love me some…

My cat absolutely loves the Friskies fishing app. He attacks my iPad no matter what, so yeah, I put the app on and he leaves my computer alone for a little while.

I liked her better than I do in Parks and Rec (which is not at all), but she still distracted me from the storyline at times. I'm with the above poster - I can't ever decide if she's trying too hard or not enough. 90% of the time I think it's too much (especially in light of the interview above and others I've seen…

I'm not on board the Aubrey Plaza train, either. And I've seen stuff of hers outside of Parks and Rec, too. Safety Not Guaranteed was cute, but she was a low point.

That is some racist shit.

I'm a heterosexual woman. I wouldn't give two shits about changing in a locker room with, say, lesbians. NBD. I would, however, feel uncomfortable about changing in a locker room with men. It doesn't have to do with sexual orientation. It has to do with power dynamics, traditional gender roles, the male gaze,…

What the fuck kind of bolo tie fever dream is Philip Rivers wearing in his post-game interview.

I swear he does these poses on purpose just to look stupid cute.

True story. My boozehoundiest (obviously American) friend got his masters from LSE. Paid a ton for it, too.

He is pretty great. I lost an adult cat in early January, and it broke my heart. But this little man has been just a joy since then.

Oh man, now I wish I'd read the entire piece just for "lying on a bed of gold coins in a top hat." I really hope she spent her childhood protesting Scrooge McDuck.

Also, Tyra Banks took a similar executive business course at Harvard, and I assure you that Harvard Business School's reputation is still intact.

I have no idea. I'm a silly American. I know that they're common in the US.

I mean, I don't know how it is in the UK, but it's pretty common in the US for high-level execs to take customized programs at well regarded universities, and I guarantee you those execs aren't staying up all night studying for GREs and whatnot. My dad is a pretty successful CEO, and schools are always appealing to…

Oh for the love. He's not going for a four-year degree, which is presumably the goal for which she sweated out those grades. It's a 10-week course that doesn't award any professional or academic certificate. Professionals do stuff like this to keep their skills up to snuff, and it really doesn't reflect on the larger…

I've had this app for a year, but I had no idea that I could ADD MY OWN CAT. Holy shit. This changes everything. EVERYTHING.
