Why does everyone insist on peeling kiwi? (Kiwis? Kiwae?) There’s a bazillion sites and videos on how to do it, but to me it feels an awful lot like peeling a blueberry: an awful lot of effort for something unnecessary. The skin’s edible, so just dice the thing and chuck it in the blender, no?

My school’s math club celebrates Pi Day every year by meeting at a Village Inn in the morning and eating various pies for breakfast. They always invite me, because I’m a nerd (I’m the band director, and I am notoriously math-averse, but the concept infinite invariability appeals to me). It always falls during our…

Came here to say this. Seven rhymes with eleven, and Stef is human. ^_^

Normally, I would question whether or not Johnny Tran would be considered family or not, considering that he tends to shoot at our cars or punch people or call us narcs...but then I realized that I accurately described THAT ONE uncle we all have.

Having attended several NASCAR events through the years with my ex (three at TMS alone), I now have to ask...

I ponied up for the XD showing of this when it was in theatres for one night a week or so ago. Obviously, being in XD, it was on our multiplex’s largest screen, 503 seats.

Actually, the most impressive thing about this run to me is that they did this IN THE WET.

So what about when hundreds of tumbleweeds getting blown every which way right in front of you? Yeah, that’s when you know the world is about to end. There’s no other acceptable explanation.

It’s a fine enough score, although if you were to listen to it without any context, would you be able to identify the composer at all? Would you assume Silvestri because of those two scant uses of the TFA theme, or would you be more likely to gloss over those and assume that it’s Hans Zimmer or one of his many…

I only remember it being used twice (and briefly at that) in TWS. Don’t remember AoU. But I’m encouraged enough to watch TWS again to see if there’s any other spots I missed.

The main theme in Captain America: TFA is actually a superbly written anthem, and I can listen to it endlessly.

I thought the original X-Men vs Street Fighter arcade game handled Rogue particularly well, especially as a 1v1 fighter. Rogue COULD fly, but didn’t have to, and had an attack where she sould grab and kiss her opponent (‘Thanks, Sugar!’), temporarily granting her the ability to use her opponent’s special moves. Rogue…

Even if sous vide was a successful method for set-and-forget caramelized onions, I still think I would choose the slow cooker ever time. Just about every bit as fool proof, really, and more people are likely to own a slow cooker than a sous vide device.

Holy crap, 10-year old me FREAKED THE HELL OUT when she pulled that glove off! I would fast-forward past that scene every time after the first time I watched it.

Great. Now I’m going to have the chorus to Rockabye in my head on repeat for the next month. Thanks for that.

“Slight garbage human.”

Good pointers all around, though I think you could just as easily have titled this, “How to host any friends or family for more than two days.” Pretty much everything you ascribe to parents could be ascribed to anyone traveling...and especially friends or family who are coming with children.

Instead of mathing so much, why not just add gelatin? Considering that one can easily make jello shots with everclear as one can with vodka, ABV concerns tend to go out the window once you involve gelatin, it would seem. So, instead of mathing, couldn’t you bloom some unflavoured gelatin in whatever non-alcoholic base…

I thought that the Mirage was the only reason that Mitsubishi hadn’t died yet, rather than being the reason they were out of the market.
