I suspect a lot of the improvements were made because of the 1980’s droughts that impacted the Midwest, where most of the corn, soybeans, and wheat is grown. It came because farming operations basically consolidated (whether it was from bankruptcy or future generations simply didn’t want the stress of farm life), and…

You are correct, but there will be a temporary increase as places like Canada gets to be warm enough to sustain a slightly longer growing season for a few years.

Wonder how many times their maidservants use Beast as a mop?

Another reason that I can see is that Playstation 4 is much more developer friendly than either the XBox One or the Wii-U, and I don’t see that mindset changing even with the NX package that Nintendo has brought out. In terms of ecosystems, Windows (whether we’re talking Windows 10, XBox 1, Windows Phone) has the…

My mother narrowly avoided her house being burned down when lightning struck the house and rupturing the gas line. Had she been asleep for five more minutes, the house would have gone kablooey. (Also, a tornado missed her house by a mile. Ever since then, she’s just shut the whole house down if lightning comes within…

Between this and the initial decision of whether you want to euthanize quadriplegic-Chloe or not, this episode is making you decide on things that even Telltale Games wouldn’t do. I bet they’ve taken a lot of notes about how well Dontnod has pushed the visual storytelling genre.

Perhaps after the whole computer hacking scandal, any organization even remotely affiliated with the St. Louis Cardinals might be wary of even saying “hello” to a group like Deadspin. Still, not answering a simple question (even it’s a fancy way of saying, “None of your business.”) seems very sketchy to me.

The firebeckman dot com webby can’t possibly be coded fast enough.

Beijing will be the first city to host both the Summer and Winter Olympics, though “host” is a partial misnomer here—while the indoor ice events will take place in the city, it barely snows in Beijing itself. The snow events will be held in Zhangjiakou, 120 miles away.

What’s really bad is when you’re right handed and due to surgery, you have to start learning to write left-handed. I can’t read my own handwriting. *sob*

Seems like Tay Tay (though I prefer calling her “Swifty”) has a bit of Miley in her. I get that she finds the concept of squabbling over who gets what prior to marriage unromantic. It’s unromantic, sure. But it’s absolutely necessary, unless she’s cool with husband 1.0 getting $100 million her estate if something goes…

Worse pun for SPF sun block protection ever.

Can we talk about how awful Sriracha sauce is? It’s made in LA for gods sake.

I’ve had squirrels steal my pizza when I was in college. (Because it’s much easier to order carry out than hoping that the driver knows how to get to my apartment.) Evil doesn’t even begin to describe squirrels.

I’m just surprised Senator Whitehouse hasn’t decided to run for the White House. Now, can we also kill like all the poop emojis?

So would a victory beer be this plus poutine?

Totally agree. System preferences are just that preferences. All computers will run into problems, and it mostly depends on what is your level of pain tolerance when it comes to fixing these problems.

So the leaning tower of Oreos is a possibly you say?

Oreo-ception!

This is the worst part of ret-cons, when characters re-discover people’s secret identities, not aware like the readers are that she’s discovered it twice in the comics and twice (I think?) in the movies.
