Most horrifying was on a shuttle bus in Brooklyn. A very agitated woman was mumbling to herself and pacing. She started picking her nose and glaring at other passengers. In typical NYC fashion people just ignored her. She pulled out a huge booger, and quickly WIPED IT UNDER ANOTHER PASSENGER’S NOSE.

Do you feel like marriage brought any change to your relationship?

No prenup. To be honest, it didn’t even occur to me. My partner and I had been living together for so long, we figured we might as well get a tax break out of it. There wasn’t much planning of any sort involved, aside from finding a day when both our schedules were free to go to the courthouse. No regrets so far!

I love absinth too! Not a drink for someone expecting a sugary cocktail, though.

I’ve heard this called a “death in the afternoon” and it’s a shot of absinth (or Pernod) in a glass of Prosecco or cheap Champagne. You wouldn’t use the fancy stuff. The sweetness of the bubbly tempers the bitterness of the absinth. For what it’s worth, I think it’s a delicious

Right? What a weird suggestion. My fingers are always stained for a day or two after cooking with it.

He might have trouble finding one that fits properly if they are tailored for a woman's shape. Tight in the waist and hemline, but loose in the ass and hips is not always a good look. Unless he gets some hip and butt pads to fill it out! That would be hot.

My husband complains about this all the time. Men's fashion is so damn conservative these days. Even the 1950s were less conservative! In much of the USA, if you don't look like a total shlub in baggy, shapeless jeans and t-shirt, you really stand out. Even a well-tailored suit is difficult to find (not so much in…

I recently hired Dr. Trust to get me out of the grey and it's working! Dude is LEGIT.

I broke up with Mr CunnyBird and we ended up getting back together and eventually getting married. But only because he hired this spell-caster dude. I'm trapped by the bounds of a dark magik. I hate to break it to you, but Missus Chritter probably has a voodoo doll of you tied up in chains hidden away somewhere. It's…

Anyone who is interested at all in black music culture, or even music history in general, should check out Q-Tip and Tribe Called Quest. It's a sad state of affairs when Iggy Azalea is better known than Q-Tip.

Ok, I know it's probably pointless to explain this, but his stage name refers to Queens. You know, Queens, NY? The birthplace of hip hop? Hence the Q.

How is it even possible to not know Q-Tip?

You laugh, but artist Piero Manzoni took a shit in a can, called it art, and it eventually sold for £97,250 at a Sotheby's auction: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist%27…

I need more stars for this comment. Unless she's secretly pulling all the strings in the background, she must be bored out of her brilliant mind.

True. But that's how the Catskills were formed, and they are a normal mountain range. Water can do a hell of a lot given a million years or so.

I'm not a geologist, so I could be mistaken here. But my understanding is that table-top mountains (mountains with flat tops) are elevated plateaus. They are the result of intense erosion. Before these mountains were formed, the land in that area was flat and at a high altitude (a plateau). Glaciers and ice melt…

EVERYTHING MAKES SENSE NOW

there were over 200 different types of specula made for a variety of specialized tasks: placing leeches on the cervix, bloodletting the cervix, cauterizing wounds

My local grocery store has had a huge bin of cinnamon scented pine cones and candy canes by the entrance for a MONTH already. Christmas cookie displays went up last week. It is an abomination. I'd boycott the place, but that is where all the local firemen do their shopping, so I'm torn! War brings such tough…
