What are you talking about? When gawker ran this story, the comments were flooded with assholes calling him selfish and proudly proclaiming they have no sympathy for anyone who commits suicide.

Assuming that you live together and know each other fairly well, she has seen how sick you are and obviously thinks you're not sick enough to not be able to do some light housework.

I had the flu two years ago. Actual flu, not a bad cold. Since then I assume ~98% of those who claim to have the flu are lying or don't know what the flu is.

Jebus! Is that a cheek implant poking out? It looks painful! Also, the hair and make-up isn't doing her any favours. Fried hair, aggressive eye make-up and over-plucking but otherwise ignoring the eyebrows is very Pamela Anderson ca 1995, and even Pam has updated her style since then. I really, really want to fill in…

1. "scrape goat" really needs a sic

That could be the worst photo of anyone I've ever seen. She looks deranged and evil and I'm afraid the photo will suck my soul through the computer screen if I look at it for too long

That particular brand of homophobes who are hung up on the mechanics of gay sex, do they think all their straight friends only have sex in the missionary position, under the covers with the lights off? Because I read Dan Savage's column, and the freakiest pervs are (almost always) straights. If the Duck Patriarch…

Are we sure that's not Kim Kardashian?

That's rude. I believe the politically correct term would be "Who would Brian Boitano do?" </humour>

It's not about how funny the joke is, it's about how the joke is funny. If it's at the expense of the victim = not funny. If it's at the expense of the rapist = could be funny. If it's a good joke. It's not automatically funny, but a joke at the expense of a victim is always automatically un-funny because what the…

I think it looks more like they shaped North's eyebrows with photoshop rather than waxing. Which is a little strange, but not as weird as waxing a baby's eyebrows. (I understand photoshopping out vomit stains or boogers, but fixing eyebrows and highlighting the area under the brow to make the eyes "pop" and possibly…

The power of suggestion, ain't it grand! The doctor could have told him to burn a black feather under the new moon and rub the ashes on the pain, and it would have gone away. Meanwhile, I read about kidney diseases in a brochure at the pharmacy, and I've been experiencing nausea, back pain and itching ever since.

I know a few researchers who've been to Antarctica for work. They have either lived on boats docked just off shore, or at one of the research stations on land. There were bars. Or rather, there's alcohol, and someone who plays bartender. They do however ration the alcohol, both because there is a limited supply…

Soooooooooo many questions. Like why is there a bluetooth-logo at the bottom? Won't marshmallow mermaids melt in water, mermaids' natural habitat? And is that why you can't measure the softness of their wombs? Wouldn't a bunny die and be all bloody and gross if you laundered it? What medication did they skip/OD on to…

TIME magazine did a cover story about them over 20 years ago, but it still holds. Veeeery interesting read, well-researched. It's only available for subscribers from their website, buy you can find it in various internet archives. It's called "The Thriving Cult of Greed and Power"

If you hover your pointer over the url and have your browser's status bar visible, the url tells you it's Arnold Schwarzenegger riding on a giant toy horse.

That made me think of those wildly unfortunate photos of cyclists with their cannolis awkwardly stuffed in the front of their bike pants. I will not include a photo, since I'm pretty sure it's NSFW.

I hate click-bait. "Zomg, you HAVE to click on this link!!!! I'm not going to tell you what it is, but it's super kewl and awesome you guise!!! Click it! Clickitclickitclickit!!!!!"

It's not about shutting down discussion, it's about not engaging. Life is too short to waste time on trolls. Also, there is never a discussion, because they don't care or even listen to anything anyone says. Facts and arguments mean nothing to them, you might as well try logic to make a donkey stop braying. They get a…

That's not how evolution works, and this is the body basically malfunctioning. It's not supposed to do this, it's like when someone has their own parasitic twin inside them, or develop skin tumours that look like tree-bark because their immune-defence system freaks out over a harmless virus. It's extremely rare, and…
