That’s about the age at which I picked him up, too, starting with Carrie and Salem’s Lot. It’s an uneven oeuvre, but King’s best can be truly magnificent.

I worked at a 5star hotel in Cambridge Ma. in the 80’s. I did night audit so I rarely interacted with guests but every once in a while I had to handle a late check in. At around two in the morning a filthy dented woody station wagon pulled up in front of the hotel. I saw the driver out of the corner of my eye as he…

I’d love to walk through his brain. Or his Dreamcatcher-type warehouse =)

I love how that grew out of King’s own quitting. I can’t find this anywhere online, but in either the foreword or the afterword of a collection in which the story is published, King relates how he and Tabby were so broke at the time (he described the struggle as being akin to the Bataan Death March, and I don’t doubt…

Two hipsters walk into a bar.

Whatever you do- don’t go to Quitters Inc.

So we’re just going to ignore the danger this gay student poses by her mere presence before these easily influenced young children?

Managers who don't stand up for their employees are THE WORST.

Makes sense. Keeping drugs illegal in the US means the cartels can charge way more for their products - why would they want it to be legal? And the DEA gets to take in tons of federal funds, they get to fill up for-profit prison cells and make people work for cents an hour, and they get to bang prostitutes. Obviously…

I'm guessing this is one of those offensive hoop skirts. This photo was taken in 1860.

What I find funny about the "advice" given by many above is that it assumes that a person with whom you have a close enough connection to care about how you broach this subject is unable to discern when you are completely full of shit.

Oh, that's true. So !#%!#$! true. I'd love for America to be like that, but until it is, individually screwing a server to make a stand about how things should be doesn't effect any change and only hurts other folks.

Great article! One thing, though, that you might want to add in a future write-up (you know that you'll be doing another of these, right?): the unappealing and uninvited appearance of blood clots. I don't know if that's too graphic a subject but, hey, in for a penny, in for a pound, right?

I only have one thing to add to this wonderful article: Good Eats is the fucking BEST food based show to ever have existed.

Rolling pain is a great way to put it. At the worst, it's like your uterus is trying to give itself a tiger burn (when you twist both ends in opposite directions). The only thing that has come close to that feeling is catching a stomach bug in India. Like the other lady's said, athletic cramps are sharp and intense…

Pro husband tip: Take a photo of tampon, pad, ect. box with your phone before you go to buy them. Most women are very loyal to a particular brand, at least my wife is.

Yay! Everyone listen to AgentofNothing. We love to work with clients that have strong creative vision. It can be a demanding process if you don't know all the jeweler's lingo, but we are here to help you translate. Local shops are wonderful places to work closely with the jeweler/fabricator. If anyone needs help with…

Agreed. I went through a local shop that let me help with the design process as well. Granted, it helped that my now-wife is a good artist, and had given me some sketches of things that she liked, but we ended up with a beautiful ring that will always be unique to us.
