I hear you. I was embarrassed about my last name well into my twenties, because it is a homophone for a generally disliked animal, and spelled strangely as well. People almost always mispronounce it, and when I correct them, then they look at me as if they don’t believe me, and I then have to say , “you know; like the…

Awesome. Bought tickets last week to see them in July. Looks like it will be a fun show.

I am totes loving this Deadspin/Jezebel cross-over. Both sides of it!

It’s goose breeding season here so they are being really aggressive and last week one flew at me and Ms. during a sailing lesson and I yelled “Holy S*** we almost got Fabio-ed” ...and then I had to explain it. Made me feel old.

Yeah, underlying issues for sure. I have taken mushrooms and LSD several times and never had anything like this happen, but an ex-friend of mine would always get paranoid and violent on the exact same acid, the exact same mushrooms. Spending more time with him, I came to learn that he got paranoid and violent on any…

How can this fucker even be allowed to keep his job? Hasn’t he basically admitted a bias in rape reports and investigations?

back in the 80's and 90's the style of sandal with calf-wrapping was usually called a “slave sandal.” I actually didn’t even know they were called “gladiator sandals” now until after I read this article! Glad I’ve never had to make reference to them before.

I prefer “Blooperry”

“The Penis is evil! The Penis shoots Seeds, and makes new Life to poison the Earth with a plague of men, as once it was. But the Gun shoots Death and purifies the Earth of the filth of Brutals. Go forth, and kill! Zardoz has spoken.”

Would a rail-gun even work in space because of the inertial forces? I mean, sure, it would work, but wouldn’t it totally throw itself out of its orbital trajectory?

Whoa. Hugs to you.

I would fail that phone-date. I’m somewhat Aspie and need to see someone’s face to converse, or else I either pause too long, or interrupt.

1) When it turns out her profile pic is over 5 years old, and she looks very different now. Still quite attractive, but obviously insecure.

Yeah, #3 for sure. Always a bad sign.

The Abraham Lincoln: shave all your pubes off, set aside. Ejaculate on partners face, throw pubic hair on face so it sticks. Can’t remember who told me this or why.

As a kid, I had only ever seen Grease on network TV (no cable out in the sticks where I grew up, even to this day) and the lyrics were changed slightly for “Greased Lightning.” I never knew it said “pussy wagon” and not “cushy wagon” until I was in my 30's and came across some sheet-music for it.

Agreed. It’s convenient for me since two of the breweries are in my neighborhood, and one is in West Seattle, and the 1/2 price day coincides with a weekly appointment I have one block away from it. (Plus I actually have about 8 growlers, thanks to a former roommate who would always forget to bring his and just buy…

I’m in the Seattle area too, and I have found quite a few breweries that have half price growler days. You can’t beat two growlers of local organic beer for 15 bucks total!

Yuck; it’s even more gross that he wants them to look “respectful” rather than respectable.

Ugh, so the male employees were uncomfortable with the much-younger male models, huh? I bet not so much with the much-younger female models.
