What does this woman do for a living and who and how does she influence them? I couldn’t get through the first two minutes of it because the upspeak was so gratingly distracting.

We did the same when our dog had extensive hind leg surgery. The surgeon, by mutual agreement with us, got a few pics every day to monitor the healing process. For that matter, when my husband had abominal surgery we did the same thing with his surgeon, and I was the Annie Liebovitz in that case. We did this because…

I swear there was something made about the Cap Arcona within the last couple of years but an imdb search only reveals German productions that I don’t think were released in the US. Maybe it was a PBS documentary or something on the The Hitler History Channel.

No comment I have ever posted on Jezebel has elicited so much feedback. This is ironic because it’s a topic I know nothing about first-hand and about which I have no opinions.

I will!

Of course! Why, again, are you in the grays? 

My other half and I are KonMari-ing our way through the fridge, freezers, and the cabinets, only eating what we have on hand before it goes bad and throwing out what doesn’t spark joy. We haven’t spent a nickel on food in the last nine days. Beverages, on the other hand...

First thing that came to mind. Make Spicey pair off with Melissa McCarthy and the motorized version of the podium to some cheerful tune, maybe the “Horst Wesel Lied.”

Robert De Niro just turned 76. I hope I’m as sure-footed as he is when I’m his age. Just looking at those things gave me an imaginary sprained ankle.

Charles and Andrew must have a very strange fraternal dynamic. They wake up every day:

I’ll jump in.

Very late but can I contribute the worst birthday story? My 21st.

When my oldest sister got married I was 9 or 10 (I should remember this) and she was about 22. At the wedding reception she asked me to dance with her. I’m a guy in real life so this wasn’t so strange.

I have a very strange affiliation with Bobby Vinton. I grew up in a small house with tons of siblings, and only one massive color TV; it was bigger than our kitchen table and weighed at least three times as much.
