I appreciate having an immediate shorthand that tells me when an idiot is talking. Saves my valuable time.

I wish I knew what song/tune you are using. The second verse needs to include the phrase "little nibble" somewhere.

That ESPN guy who started Grantland says there needs to be some geographical or sentimental connection, you can't just pick whoever's currently top of the table. A lot of guys agree with him.

At first I thought he should go as the Count from Sesame Street.

As a non-fanatical Liverpool fan, I say so what if they do? That's football. Every club's fan have some taunting chants that reference the other teams' players and their behavior. Some of the chants are pretty good too. As long as it was well crafted, possibly funny, I'd give Newcastle a thumbs up myself.

I never noticed before that Suarez does not fit any of the regular categories: ass man, leg man, breast man. He is a shoulder man. Maybe being around all those fit, muscular shoulders is just too overwhelming for him.

Kind of like how I'm just a tad more qualified to the title of Person Who Can Spot a Bit of Joke than you are? ;)

I was on their side when I read "Saunders" in the headline and thought they meant Jennifer Saunders. But this "George Saunders"? Well, I never even heard of him so how great a writer can he be? I'll be boycotting Chipotle until they make things right with Jennifer Saunders.

I would rather have the hipsters busy themselves with overthinking grilled cheese sandwiches than ruining many other things that are more important and required for life to continue. The day they start to infiltrate essential areas of government infrastructure and social services is the day we all start dropping like…

You obviously have a lot more mental energy than I do. You don't seem to mind keeping up with it all though, so I won't proselytize anymore. :)

Facebook has been peopled by unaware crazies since at least 2006 when I left. It is a ghetto of apocalyptic preachers standing cheek-by-jowl, all simultaneously preaching about the ruin of their personal happiness, and totally lacking in listeners. Nothing but a depressed, homicidal cacophany.

Why are you keeping up with the birthdays of casual acquaintances? If they aren't closely related to me by blood or marriage, I don't bother with more than "Oh, hope you had a good one" when the birthday is brought up. Unless they are one of my actual *friends*, something more than an acquaintance, and we have a…

He just needed some Extra Joss.

everyone I've everknown from Charlotte brags that they are becoming the "NYC of the south". they mean it both culturally and business-wise (lots of bank HQs in charlotte). now, whether their perception aligns with reality can certainly be discussed. but, if Charlotte folks watched RHONY and got the idea that skinny…

Any of these help?

Where are the "after" pictures?

One of the first commenters at Instructables asks that. The original poster says don't do it on real leather, only sneakers, or the leather will be ruined. :(

I hate biscuits using heavy cream. I just don't find them to be as light as when you use milk. I like a light, fluffy biscuit. Are those from-scratch biscuits made with heavy cream in the pic above? They look like Pillsbury canned biscuits. :( Anyway, I notice they don't have as wide a "crack" around the sides. My…

Separate it in half while laying out all your ingredients.

You're welcome. I sense a moneymaking opportunity for you and any inventive maker friends you can con into giving you startup money. :)
