Look, I love babies. I like moms (some of them). But if I was invited to speak in from of hundreds of people, do a book signing, and participate in an intense professional conference, I’d arrange for child care for the day. No, you can’t bring your baby to work, sorry. That includes adjunct teaching. Advocate for…

We don’t do the whole fundie Christian thing very well down here. Nobody in the government or anywhere else wanted him here so he was told he wasn’t allowed into Australia and his visa was denied.

Shrayber has a guinea pig? Whoa, dude, that’s like being family! Pics!

Fosters is not a thing here. Nobody drinks it. Stop perpetuating this myth. The rest is true though.

Yes, the poor sexist manbabies who have taken up days of protest over the unfair firing of a woman by a woman who falsely claimed gender discrimination and made a mockery of such a claim thereby setting back the ability of all women who actually suffer such discrimination to make such claims without seeming like…

I signed the petition as I think Ellen Pao is not a good CEO and should be ousted, which is what the petition is about. You are entitled to your opinion, but please don’t call those who signed it “racist/misogynists.”

have you seen this? It’s an extra from the last DVD set. It’s basically a parody of the ending of Newhart, where it was all a dream and Bob waws still living with Suan Plachette. Just fyi the video is flipped to avoid youtube bots. I really thought it was funny and it cool to see those two together after such a long…

Bitter that Klorane didn’t make the cut but also genuinely confused by the fact that these are all, with the exception of Bumble & Bumble, sprays vs powders. I like the convenience of spray-on dry shampoo but if I used it, I would go through like a can every two weeks vs the powder, which I buy every 3 months. I have…

That’s the first thing that I thought, too! Klorane is by far the best dry shampoo I've ever used. I have half-used bottles of Amika and Batiste languishing under my sink because I just keep buying new bottles of Klorane.

What, no mention of Klorane???

Used to be employed by (early version) Bugs Bunny on a regular basis to describe the idiots around him. We use it all time. Maybe it’s an old people thing...

This will try to kill you. Yes that’s chocolate flavoured with Vegemite. Ignore the people saying “Oh it’s just like a salted caramel chocolate, you eat salted caramel, right?” For they are liars with no pity in their hearts.

This is only the list of bad things. Nice Australian (edible) plants include lili pili berries that taste great in lemonade, wattle seed that you can add to cream for deserts, worrigils which can be used instead of spinach and a whole lot of nuts including macadamias that the Hawaiians nicked.

I wonder why the people are so freaking awesome from Australia! While I`m sure there`s a nut out there, I have yet to meet a bad one. Is it because the bad ones have been weeded out? How do they so damned cheerful when they live in all the awful flora and fauna?

He’s backing what he sees as freedom of speech; it’s pretty clear he does not agree with bigotry.

My mother actually tried to sell us when I was 7 and my brother was 5. She was on the phone with the guy, working out the deal (she was trying to get $1000 each for us—this was in 1977), and the deal somehow fell through (he wouldn’t agree to what she wanted) and she went into a rage. She ordered us into the car and…

It remains an inelegant phrase. Died by suicide means “died by killing themselves,” it’s like saying died by fatality.

I think you know perfectly well that’s not what i’m saying. Criticize in private and praise in public. I guess that could also be twisted around. Have fun!
