Line dry your laundry whenever possible. Tumble drying makes your fabrics weaken and degrade more quickly.
@bobdeloyd: You say racism and sexism don't belong on the web, but that's pretty much the point of the article. That there are policies and opinions prevalent among the many industry leaders that are inherently racist, sexist, and classist, and that fail to take into account the preferences and experiences of people…
@bobdeloyd: Ah, that's my bad.
@bobdeloyd: How do you know "he" isn't black or Asian? Just an assumption, like your inexplicable assumption of maleness.
@Logan Hinds: The next time you see a person in a wheelchair, you should say, "Just get up and walk. It's not that hard."
@prismatism is Team Bella: If she were just being decisive and logical, and not acting accommodating, I'd be with you all the way. She's not, though. She's judging people very harshly based on her extremely limited personal experience.
@JinxyMcDeath: Also, I know 45 year old women who buy Playstations for themselves.
@voteforme: She also seems to base her judgments of truthfulness and what 'makes sense' entirely on her own behaviors. I've seen her accuse people of lying for keeping their car registration in their glovebox (she keeps hers in her wallet!), for being nervous while speaking on the show, and for having a type of cell…

@Alwaystheangel: Woody Allen signed the petition, but I can't find anything about Woody Harrelson signing it.
@Michael Leddy: That's so clever. Props to your wife.
@cayton: Nobody has change/bills for the machine. The machine's broken and nobody has a brick.
@undefined:No, it's not like that at all.
@DeadWriter: I used to use binder clips in my hair all the time when working at home. I always had binder clips handy, and they work really well to keep my hair out of my face when I'm overdue for a cut. They stay put much better than most official hair clips.
@paintbox: It's not so much the studies themselves, but the simplistic and sensational way the media covers them. Scientific research, if it's conducted rigorously, is a great thing. The thing is, the media takes things out of context. They conflate correlation and causation, exaggerate trends, and try to translate…
@madara: What do you mean by 'ghetto,' exactly?
There's also a really cool chart on Cockeyed, with pictures of people of sorted by height and weight:
