The idea of having a fully autonomous driving system that 1) is safer than my driving myself and 2) works is amazing. I probably drive on average 4-500 miles a week for my job and I would extremely happy if I could nap, work, eat, or basically have Me Time while driving. My current car has lane assist and I admit that…

Maybe it’s also the combo of banana and honey? Bananas have been taken for years to help relieve constipation, so perhaps you got a double whammy between them and the honey. But definitely good to know!

I bet this is delicious, but the calorie and carb hit (especially with the added sugar and chocolate) seems super similar to ice cream- which wins every time in terms of “what would you rather eat” competitions for those of us who aren’t lactose intolerant or inexplicably not fond of ice cream. Bananas are a “healthy”…

This sounds amazing and also I’m definitely making some this weekend.

Why the corn syrup? I generally make my rice krispies with a a half stick of butter and a pound of large marshmallows- does the corn syrup add viscosity? I’ve actually added butterscotch chips to my marshmallows and coated them with chocolate and been quite pleased with the results- but the peanut butter would make…

Now as far as racism goes, at least this sort looks delicious. Much prefer it over getting the stinkeye while shopping or being the last person helped because “nobody saw you”. Still bad. But at least there’s some comedy with my racism.

That pretty much neatly and sufficiently answered that question.

As someone who spends a LOT of time in the car, before I spent a lot of time in the car I would have said the same thing- but sometimes there’s something just zen about driving in silence. 20, 30 minutes... just resting my brain and clearing my head. But for sure, all other times it’s wall to wall NPR, podcasts,…

Chances are good? Damn, I’m 50 years old and done a fair amount of camping, hiking through the woods and outdoor activity in my life and I’ve never once suffered a tick bite. As carriers of Lyme disease and the like ticks are no joke and this is some A+ preventative advice, but I will be unsurprised to make it through…

In the mid-90's the radio in my mother’s 1986 Saab 900S only worked if you punched the shit out of it (or at least the dash board directly above it). Definitely “fixed” a loose connection. At least temporarily. Otherwise you’d only get AM radio. 

I am old enough to remember her in the Young Comedian’s Specials. I swear I had a memory of her in a flowered yellow dress but a quick google search suggests my mind made up that detail... what I do remember is that she was really funny and could comedically hang with if not surpass her peers. Mildly curious as to her…

The fact that Bugs Bunny did not say “Of course you realize, this means war” after getting punched in the face by Shaggy is a major oversight.

I am 50 and didn’t see Gone With the Wind until I was in my forties, mostly because I was pretty much one million percent uninterested in seeing it, and only caved and watched it because I felt like it was something I *should* see. Immediately regretted it; 3+ hours of my life that I will never get back that I could…

“Well if you throw out all the White people this “opiate crisis” thing is hardly more than a blip”, said no one ever, ad infinitum. What a douche canoe.

Breyer’s used to be good. I remember from my youth a commercial featuring a kid reading the ingredients on the label of Breyer’s vanilla ice cream: cream, milk, sugar, vanilla, and salt. That was it. No gums, stabilizers or gunk, and the product was dense and perfectly decent. Then Breyer’s was purchased by Unilever,…

Agreed. I seriously love the fact that not only he did not accept the apology he also didn’t give it any oxygen all by letting us know that he could give a fuck what that man said- so many times famous people feel the need to act like the more magnanimous person and let people off the hook when said people sink that…

Had a super fun time taking a deep dive into the moontower, the bathing machine, and the Cooking Dog. Fascinating tech, all of it. Screw the iPod, I want a Cooking Dog!

Hmm... this does not sound promising. Worth the read? I liked the rest of the series well enough.

He was 83?! Jesus, time flies. Wow.

So is the new Hunger Games travesty an entirely new thing or was there another novel written when I wasn’t paying attention?
