Traditionally made with beef stock. I think an oxtail-type base might work very well indeed.

Dogs and Cats, living together - A disaster of biblical proportions. WTF is there no way to post videos now??

Some people are incorrigible. My friend had her brother and SIL living with her. The SIL was a drunk and would always take the car if the keys were left where she could find them, so it was up to everyone else to hide the keys from her. One night, the brother fell asleep without hiding the keys. Sure enough, SIL…

I just want to say goodbye and good luck to everyone before Kinja changes, in case I never see you again.

A story of floristry and ethnic profiling: (no, really!) My sis worked in a flower shop. She got a phone order for a corsage and duly made a sweet little corsage. When the person came to pick it up, they winced and said, "Oh, no, this won't do. The woman is GREEK," gesturing with their hands to indicate a giant pair…

I feel bad for you that you are such a baby. You missed out on great food like Space Food Sticks and Pop Rocks when that meant something (they used to be about 10x stronger).

I bought some the other day, ditched the powder and at the sticks so happily. I am over 50 years old.

I saw a make-out version of this on a Japanese station years ago. A woman chooses from several suitors, Dating Game-style. They then go sit on a couch.

Maybe spreading rumors about murder victims that you don't even know isn't the best use of your time.

That picture of Biebs and Selena is hilarious. He's so tiny that the "legs wrapped around waist" move becomes "legs wrapped around shoulders." Adorable.

They are trying to drive me to violence, aren't they?

Well, you're a DECENT religious person. There's a difference.

It's so insulting on so many levels. It presumes:

My BFF's SIL died this weekend. She drank herself to death. She had been enabled by her very loving husband, who is devastated. Everyone else in her life is sort of breathing a sigh of relief, because life was a chaos-filled cesspool as long as she was around. It's sad.

Oh hell no

I read a piece by a woman who had lost far more weight than is healthy because she was undergoing cancer treatment. She said she didn't look well at all and that her collarbones were protuding, but people kept telling her how terrific she looked and wanted to know what her secret was.

I worked in a print shop for about 3 years. In all that time, I had 5 customers who totally screwed us on payment, and each and every one of them was loudly Christian. They had Christian symbols on their printing, they worked at churches, and one was a Christian concert promoter. I had other people who couldn't pay,…
