Against my own fashion snob inclinations I bit the bullet and bought ugg snow boots last year and they are now the most comfortable thing I own. I seriously look forward to the winter so that I can wear these babies.

I am really good at missing deadlines. My secret to this is overcommitting to projects because of a profound inability to say no.

Mrs. Fatone for the win

Little know fact, back in the 1960s and 70s, men actually had tiny turkey brains so any time they showered there was always a risk that they would look up at the showerhead and open their mouths, thereby drowning in the process. Because women were too smart to do this, it was actually imperative they every man had a…

Screamy Spice gets an Emmys cameo. Goebbels-wannabe Bannon gets a platform on “60 Minutes.” The only one told to shut up and go away is a woman.

I never saw the first Avatar.

This has got to be the worst tip I’ve seen on Lifehacker. Why would I want to junk up my Contacts with recipes? There are plenty of good recipe apps (PepperPlate, Paprika, etc.) that can sync across multiple platforms. As others suggested, you could use non-recipe note apps (OneNote, Evernote, Dropbox).

It seems like there are so many other good options than this. I suppose one major feature of this is the ability for the computer to read it back to you on command.

My work just unionized. We had four captive audience meetings with a union buster who resembles Dolores Umbridge’s halfwit sister. She said every single thing Slate said and we still got our union.

You forgot -

I’m turning in my application for a seat on the Board of Trustees in my local community today. This is perfect timing. It’s not an election, as it’s filling a seat vacated early, but still a great article! Thanks, Prachi.

My wife is involved in Emerge America, a training and education program to help women democrats run for office.

I look at Clinton’s platform in 2016:

We used to drive around with cassettes.

FOUND IT! Remember Gunne Sax? This is not me... but it is my dress. It matched (sort of) my date’s BAND tux. Barf.

Uh, Patton Oswalt is always going to mourn his wife. Falling in love with someone else and getting married doesn’t negate the love one has for their deceased spouse. His new wife doesn’t delete Michelle McNamara, and if she’s a half-decent person, she knows that. Mazel to him and Meredith and Alice, who seem very…

I’m guessing you didn’t read the whole “ten months later he is found NOT GUILTY” part.

This is the argument of a mental toddler. By this logic, she should just stay quiet and try to “rise above it,” or some other bullshit.
