HAHA!

They didn't want to give io9 readers any ideas.

The puns in the comments to the original article are pretty good.

And that is why I have steam heat and no central A/C. No ducts!

I didn't read it that way at all. Penny was just explaining, not rationalizing/justifying.

I am a meek, polite, mouse from KC. One time we were in Chicago and had just finished our coffees and I thought it might be starting to get busy, so I looked around to see if enough tables were filling up that we should leave. I was new to the "no eye contact" rule in a big city, and I accidentally made eye contact…

I was thinking the same thing. What's she supposed to do, in this economy when people in their 30's can't find a job scrubbing toilets?

Come back in about 35 years and ask again. <—- says the Old

Ugh, Clairol quit making Instant Whip and Born Blonde, and I'm lucky to have any hair left after switching to what was *SUPPOSED* to be a gentle on-scalp bleach. The entire top layer of my hair broke off in the back and on the side.

That's what I like about Mary Kay's extremely old-fashioned cream foundation. The smell! It reminds me of a happy time in my life. Sigh.

Why doesn't my Costco have big ass churros?

My mom LOVES Rosebud Salve and was so excited that you could get it from the Internets! She remembers it from like the 30's.

Post-menopausal nun here (well, practically) with a tragic case of facial eczema and I don't mind the snark. I'm glad not to be hit on by users anymore. What bothers me more is not being listened to when I work so much harder, smarter, and am so much more effectual job-wise and skills-wise, and I throw out ideas and…

What? Drinking: A Love Story was one of the best books I ever read. Maybe it helped keep me from becoming an alcoholic. I learned a lot from it. Speak for yourself.
