I predict getting "DOUBLE pregnant" via Eric Estrada is the most divisive thing ever written on this site. There is no middle ground as to whether that would be desirable.

On the flip side, though, your short term memory is shot.

Quitter.

5.9 percent of those with a graduate degree are smokers

Hey, if you're 15 and in a town of just a few thousand what else are you supposed to do for fun besides smoke and drink?

Better those than something truly damaging, like the bible...

Everything I've ever known is a lie.

I am writing some erotica and a neighbor loaned me Erotica from Penthouse III for research. I quote:

I am currently rocking a modified pixie cut and I feel like the sexiest lady-face ever. Straight dudes like it, gay men love it and a suuuuper foxy bartender comped my $50 mimosa tab last Sunday at brunch! Its gotta be the hair.

When I was a senior in college I got the shortest pixie cut and I felt like I was the hottest hot hottie to ever grace the earth. And all the boys loved it. Even a gay man kissed me. But was it the haircut or my new-found confidence?

Seconding take classes that have nothing to do with what you study! Music of Central Asia was one of the best classes I ever took, and I'm still super interested in it- and I'm a biologist.

Best advice I got going to college:

I learned a bunch of shit I never would have sought out on my own. This sounds like the cliche of cliches, but I learned how to think critically. Not just read some text, memorize and regurgitate it, but really how to get down to the bones of something.

How about letting me in on the joke?

When I'm asked if I've found Jesus, I reply, "What? Have you lost him AGAIN?"

As a kid I lapped up conspiracy theories and wallowed in them until I realized that there are usually two sides to an argument no matter how cool the conspiracy argument sounds and that I actually cared more about the truth than the conspiracy no matter how appealing it felt.

I think the problem isn't poor taste. Joking about being a rapist is something rapists frequently do. Rapists who don't believe they are a "bad rapist" because they raped a girl who they were dating, or friends with, or who was drunk, or who was a stripper or porn star or prostitute (basically anybody "asking for it"…

Unless the following pages show him shoving that spoon up his butt, I'm afraid it doesn't count as porn.

Dinosaurs are too a gateway drug to science. I snorted a crushed Ornithomimid phalanx in Grade Nine, and now I can't leave the house without peer review.
