Related: wrap the remaining celery in aluminum foil when you store it in the fridge. Somehow, through some weird trick of alchemy, it keeps frickin' forever like this.

I already knew that and I'm Canadian, where no one gives a shit about Thanksgiving.

Also none of them are black. But no one cares about that, right?

TYPO ALERT: IACUC description has "gift" in it, somehow. Should be "care and use committee"

Has it occurred to you that maybe an ad can be targeted to a PORTION of the entire demographic?

Look at movies: sometimes a movie trailer will be cut differently to highlight the jokes or the action, depending on who they're trying to appeal to.

Christ, calm down.

My best example of "The movie was better than the book" is Sleepers. It helps that the book was very poorly written, and that the movie was amazingly cast

BLENDER WINE. I love this trick. We tried it with blind taste test (n=3 subjects) on a shitty bottle of wine. Worked wonders.

I was going to say the exact same thing, with a snooty "Ahem" at the start.

I know it's trivial but I'm getting sick of seeing bio and chem labs depicted as dark rooms with awesomely back-lit flasks of coloured water. Most solutions (especially in a bio lab) are colourless, damn it

Pretty sure the pedestrian was the indirect cause of the accident. The car had time to make the turn (barely) and then halfway through hesitates because HOLY SHIT WHY IS THIS MAN STANDING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD? Watch closely, you'll see what I mean.

Wow, after reading this I read two more posts about people that sweat LESS after switching from antiperspirant to deodorant.

Interesting...

Anecdotal evidence of how to sweat less:

For my entire life I used antiperspirant, and was just...ok. I still sweat quite a bit but it was manageable. A couple of years ago I had to start wearing undershirts to work because I started sweating more and it was showing. Undershirts helped (full on t-shirt style) but were…

The guys in the band screwed up their timing a few times. Not criticizing. I would have given up on this during the conception stage... Amazing video

My recollection was that he refused orders in the first scene of the movie. What the orders were, I can't remember. Anyway, his punishment for insubordination is that he's demoted to Private and sent to the front lines. Or something

Also fun: in Canada, bloggers are held to the same standards as journalists in terms of libel and slander. Which I learned the hard way when I got sued for slander over a 2 year old blog post that had 500 page views

I was teaching first year university chemistry labs, and I was the "cool" T.A. who always had his sleeves rolled up on his lab coat. One day I walked up to some students and leaned on the bench with my elbows while I chatted them up. Of course there was a drop of hydrochloric acid on the bench, and my elbow was in it.

I'm a lab tech in a vaccine research group. I LOVE that someone else does all the reading and paperwork, while I get to get my hands dirty in the lab. Well, gloves

Well that's just silly. The headline is misleading. All browned food goes through a Maillard reaction. Hell that's what bread crust is. Incidentally that's what makes the food delicious. Take hot dogs for example. When they're fried or grilled they're much tastier than when boiled. That's the magic of the Maillard…

I'd rather get shot by 1 bullet than 2. So... I guess I endorse child rape

For the life of me I don't understand how the GoPro videos don't have a constant "Don't try this at home professional stuntmen on a closed course" disclaimer running along the bottom. Car companies do it when they portray a car driving down a country road

To be clear: I hate disclaimers and I LOVE that GoPro doesn't…
