We don’t have White Castle here, but we do have a sort of similacrum called Krystals (aka “Krittle”). Every time I eat Krystals - approximately twice a year - I am grossed out and swear off of it. And then six months later I go back. It’s the cornpups. I can’t quit them.

Millie was probably my favourite character on The Dick van Dyke Show. Her delivery was just superb.

She and Jerry Paris created the perfect acidic balance to Rob and Laura’s sweetness. Love her to bits.

Sticking your feet in water is not swimming.

Not calling out Sam Bee here, but wanted to get something off my chest: I’m always a little disgruntled when “thoughts and prayers” get mocked and derided in the wake of a shooting.

ME TOOOOOOOO! It’s so appropriate for 2:30 am on your post-bar walk home!

Sense and Sensibility Hugh Laurie is my favorite Hugh Laurie.

It terribly, painfully expensive, but Latisse will bring those old brows back. Off-label, of course.

FIRST REPORTED INCIDENT OF A MAN TELLING A WOMAN *NOT* TO SMILE?!?

What if a man follows another man (who is dressed as a woman) into the bathroom, in order to stop the second man from molesting a woman, BUT it turns out the woman already in the bathroom was drunk or dressed slutty? THEN what is he supposed to do?

I thought he was just making the classic Jim face.

Bread is delicious. Banana is delicious. Mayo is delicious. What could go wrong?

So I’m super white, and my small family super white. I married into a very large, diverse family. My personal rules have been something like this:
