You joke, but I used to take BoltBus to and from Boston. I eventually switched to MegaBus because I was tired of being 20 minutes because we stopped at Arby’s for 20 minutes.

Pats lose 1st round pick in 2016 and a 4th in 2017

This casting makes our hearts hurt a little bit, and I’m sure you know why... [snip]

Don’t agree with the sentiment, but it’s going to happen. Newborns are tested at birth for around 80 diseases, and 20 states keep the results indefinitely. Genotyping is on the verge of becoming cheap enough such that it will be trivial to test your genome for major disease traits quickly and easily. The hard part…

Evidence and records are made publicly available

That’s not mentioned anywhere in the article, and is probably something Mark just tossed in to be snarky, but is indeed misleading. Most paper plates are not better water/waste wise, and they are never more efficient - even biodegradable ones from corn and such - as there is a huge energy production cost involved in…

Showering = a shower for your hands

The report doesn’t say explicitly that Brady used his personal phone, but no Patriots-issued phone is mentioned for him.

I think they eyes do it. They always look to me like a poorly-made animatronic creature from the late 80s/early 90s. Just not real enough.

The cat thing is unfair. They’re obligate carnivores, so watermelon is never food; it’s always a toy. They get #1 for using watermelon like a toy.

This is the most terrifying picture I’ve ever seen. I can’t tell which will give me nightmares first: the pockmarks and scars, or the weird, uneven, detached eyeballs.

Saw Carl Punch Bear is the best title

I would pay one month’s salary to eat a Big Kahuna burger after watching that scene.

Welcome back to Whose Disgusting Baseball Chin Is This? a regular feature

I used to tutor the med school entry exam, and thus had to proctor practice tests on a regular basis. These things are well over four hours, I had to be there the entire time, and, to be convenient to the people prepping, were usually between 6 and 10pm. I needed dinner and not to spend a lot of money, and Subway was…
