It depends on the financial situation of the guy I'm seeing. When I was dating someone who literally made more money than he knew what to do with, I let him pay for nearly all the dates. If I'm dating someone who's more on my level, finance-wise, we trade off paying for meals. It's not something we've ever really…

You're kidding, right? They're not using verbatim transcripts in the article - the quotes have been cleaned up for publication. If you talk to anyone, they're going to use "um"s and "you know"s because they give the brain time to come up with the next sentence. Go watch some Laugh-In if you really want to hear what…

The way the colors (or lack thereof) go together briefly made me think someone had photoshopped in some black and white pictures for some unknown reason. I'm still not entirely convinced they haven't.

I'm right there with you, FWIW! I blame it on my first time being with a guy who was pretty well-hung (which made cleaning the sheets after /real/ fun, lemme tell you...). Since him, I've been with a decent range of sizes, from finding my ceiling (there are apparently some dicks that are just too big even for me) and…

* a thousand times for "Baby-stargate". That is the best thing today.

I think I saw something once that essentially said that given how fast the train was going, something something inflation, something something the nickel wouldn't be enough by the time it got through the window. I don't know, and of course it doesn't answer the question "well, if she could pass him a sandwich, it's…

I have so much respect for Marc Summers. I remember seeing him on all those ooze-tastic Nickelodeon game shows and given his OCD (actual, diagnosed, not just "ha ha I'm neat and like order") I am amazed he could even do it. I love watching his shows on Food Network now.

I really have to wonder what clubs in places like Minneapolis do- one would think that their clientele would know better than to go out with lots of bare skin when it's -20F, and yet how do they go out dancing?

Horses and sleighs also meant that you didn't have to plow streets, just tamp down the snow until it was firm enough to support a horse/sleigh. You had to clear sidewalks, but that was easy enough- you just shovel the snow into the street!

Leaping means that you run the risk of misjudging and landing with a splash into the puddle, which is even worse than just walking through it.

In some European countries, they have pastries that are (or were) called pretty much the same thing, but in that language. Racist food names! Not just for Americans! (also, some people still call Brazil nuts by their horribly racist name, so...there ya go, I guess.)

WHO IS THIS WONDERFUL LADY I MUST KNOW MORE

Dude, that looks totally cute! I can so see that selling on Etsy or something these days.

But he isn't one of /those/ Kochs. And he's a Democrat. They did get married at Camp David, which is one way to keep the guest list down, I guess.

[citation needed] on the sugar+fat = weight gain claim? If a burger and fries is, say, 600 calories for the burger and another 200 for the fries, that's 800 calories already. A can of regular Coke will be 200 calories, so about 1/4th the total of the burger and fries. If you're talking caloric damage, it's already…

That's fair, but in that case, there's also carbs in a cheeseburger bun, unless you're going all Atkins and having a lettuce wrap. I dunno how bad buns are glycemic index-wise (if that's a factor- obviously full-sugar soda is gonna be absorbed faster than bread), but it's still a fairly refined carb.

Obviously "skinny" is a magical word that makes a drink "good for you" and "non-fattening" no matter how much junk you layer on top of it. Kind of like how the Diet Coke is supposed to negate a cheeseburger with all the fixin's.

yay jellyfish!

I hear you on this 100%- also got the super thick EAsian hair that just wants to be straight and hang down and does not care that you have other plans for it. I think she also puffed it out a bit towards the end to make room for the flipped under bit, in addition to all the other stuff.

Let us form the Incompetent At Bobby Pins Club! For real, tho. I cannot use bobby pins for the life of me. They fall out of my hair if you look at them wrong.
