Hmmm, tone is hard to get from text, so I’m a little thrown, but my point was that it’s an unecessary caveat because anyone on our side of the butterfly net would obviously get that we don’t have samples aged a thousand years lying around.

Haha, really? the thousand year decomposition mark is unverified? I feel so bad for modern journalists, that you feel the need to add something like that so that some rando in the comments doesn’t say “well . . . there’s no empirical evidence it will be a thousand years.” Hat’s off to you for dealing with that. 

Hell yes. I have a bunch of friends who are about to get this phone number subbed out for “mom,” in their contacts. 

Gotta agree to disagree on this one. Plenty of people exploit a market to a profit while still being “dumb.” But, it’s a flexible word that means different things to different people, so c’est la vie.

I have a few hobbies that tear at my nails, but in a cruel twist of fate bent and broken nails horrify me. I can barely look at it if someone else bends a nail, much less if I do it.

True, but have you seen their daughter’s videos? All this stuff aside, I’d be willing to call them dumb.

To be fair, I REALLY REALLY REALLY don’t want to go to jail either, which is why I tend to keep the illegal stuff to a minimum. 

Looks to me like he’s “ugly,” because of the crazy splotches all over him/her.

Not a fan of go-go music, but wow is it easy to avoid. All I have to do is not move into an apartment twenty feet away from the street corner where it’s blasting. Hell, I can do that without even trying.

I’ve always thought of the disco backlash as being heavily tied into anti LGBT bullshit. An awful lot of christian groups were in on that whole “disco sucks,” movement. Though as people show time and time again, it’s easy to hate black people and gay people at the same time. 

I decided to *shave* a bunch of pictures of everyone’s favorite shirtless superhero, Jason Momoa

Just tip anyone who is providing any sort of service for you

Not saying that no one ever does these things, but prepare for the most dishonest comments section on all of lifehacker. Well, you know, except for the parenting blogs.

TIL I’m clearly inhabiting darker parts of the web than the rest of Kinja. That was grizzly, but not enough so to make me put down the chicken leg I was eating. 

I tip these guys. I just assumed their hourly was a tipped wage, but it’s getting a little old hearing about how hard all these food service people work. Unless you’re one of the lucky ones, you work when you’re at work, probably hard. They deserve the tip because, the way we do things in the states, it’s a large part …

Fun video, but I’m not sure genetics, access to good healthcare, exercise, community envolvement and a healthy diet really qualifies as a lifehack. It’s more like, “hey, remember those things your doctor, every health blog, and your 7th through 12th grade health classes kept drilling into you? Yup, turns out they’re…

This might be one of the reasons many parents say their most important value for their children is to care about others, yet their kids believe that top value is success.

Say what you will, the Chicago Police may have made some mistakes, but hell or high water, they aren’t going to fall for the “sign a lease in a different name, fill the house with four-year-old children who all believe they are at a birthday party, gift wrap the bombs that you inexplicably keep just a few feet from…

I’d love to find fault in this, but I totally spend a day or two waiting for my trophy after telling off racist family/acquaintances. It’s the feeling I get after going to the gym: “omg that felt great, I’m such a pos for not doing it more often, what the hell is wrong with me.”

And yet when I advocate for tasing and pepper spraying children, people act like I’m the bad guy.
