Probably the tour guide lied to you and it was an employee wearing a costume.

Bah! I find his grouchiness so endearing, he cracks me up.

So many messes, so little time. I feel like I don’t even know where to begin. People who deserve a permanent disinvitation for their boring and terrible outfits: Reese Witherspoon, Diana Argon, Miranda Kerr, Chloe G Moretz, Kristin Wiig and as much as it pains me to say it my homegurl Alicia Keys.

Totally judging you here, but why would you order fries and chicken tenders at a chinese restaurant. Usually the reason you go for Chinese is to eat Chinese food. Just saying. No hate.

Same as other countries assume US is one big group of obnoxious Yankees, I guess. :D

I once went into a Baker’s Square. The menu for 1/2 a club sandwich says $2.99; the other half is $.99.

Agreed. Here in the UK there are an alarming number of (take out) places who offer burgers, pizza, and curry. I never, ever order from those places.

I’m a straight male, and I’m pretty sure that this moment is the most physically attracted i’ve ever been to a woman.

I suspect that with a fair number of such people “allergy” is used interchangeably with “dislike.”

I think it’s an American thing to assume all of Asia is one giant homogenized mass. I have a friend who is Chinese: he has told me about how people have told him...

I did my undergrad in Canada due to it being ridiculously cheaper than a state school and my dad being posted to Ottawa. I love so many things about Canada but, my northern friends, it’s time for an intervention. Tim Hortons is mediocre coffee. I’m sorry I know it’s popular but just because something is popular…

A yuppie and his date came into the bar. It was obviously early in the relationship and he was obviously showing her how urbane he was.

In retaliation, America will continue to keep Lord Stanley’s cup. You know, like the last couple of decades.

What is it with sushi and stupid people? I was out to dinner this weekend at a very nice sushi place (the kind where they serve sushi and that’s it, no hibachi or noodle dishes or anything) and the two women at the table in front of us were absolute nitwits. They sat down, looked over the menu, and then started doing…

Does anyone else sees the irony in the name? Charl(es) and Diana united by Elizabeth and nothing else. Also, I feel bad for parents who have called their children Charlotte or Charlie in recent years.

Blogs and books didn't really prepare me as much as I assumed they would. Each experience is different and all that sanctimommy shit is just going to make you feel guilty about some decisions you make for yourself /child. Motherly instincts kick in once your tiny human arrives. Trust me! My boyfriend was also nervous…

I was talking about this with some people over on the Naked People Having Sex in the Library Bathroom article comments, but yeah, you never expect quite the volume of crazy that is coming your way when you start working in a library. On the plus side, though, once nurses find out what you have to deal with, then…

I sometimes imagine what Bigfoot’s jez posts in fifteen years will be like. “I was going through some really terrible shit, and god bless my mom, she stood by me through it all.” She’ll understand someday, I think.

I’m going to be an aunt and my niece just kicked in my hand through my sisters belly!!!! Magic. A human is being made and said HAI TO MEH!

My mother was one of the nicest women in the world- no exaggeration. BUT, she came unglued one fine, near the end of the school year day when the school called to tell her that first grade Hockygrrl was in the office and would remain there until someone came to “cover her up”. See, mom had dressed her little tramp in…
