As a child, I had very long eyelashes. When we would fly from Washington State to Anaheim, CA to visit my grandparents, my grandmother always remarked that she "would kill for those eyelashes." Being a child (probably 7 or 8), I took this to literally mean that she planned to murder me in my sleep and steal them. I…

Shoot, at work we just got our little internal chat program for the mechanical design group. A few of us are split between buildings and almost all of us work with headphones on listening to music, NPR, "Shut Up, Little Man!", etc. so it's actually been quite a useful way to keep communication going while reducing…

Sorry, Penn Jillette won that round. I'm relieved that Osama Bin Laden has been ended, but I don't feel good about it.

@OrangeLuxe: I don't think they need to be given any reasons beyond the ones they already have. If this 'encourages' them to press any already planned attacks, all the better, as less planning often means much bigger chance of cocking it up, which I fully support.

@rampantwhistler: My wife had sleeves added to her dress, and they looked swell.

Thank god all my teachers were virgins, I could have been corrupted.

@RunningCori: A couple months ago, I drove nearly 30 miles past my exit once before I realized I had missed it, and it was a trip I'd taken over a dozen times before.

I think looking comfortable is farrrrr sexier than any of the ridiculous mainstream lingerie out there. You'd think wearing something awkward or uncomfortable wouldn't exactly be sexy.

Ever since the lower element in my water heater broke, I'm lucky to get more than 3 minutes of nice hot water. I was going to fix it, but I realized the dropoff in water temperature was a good motivational tool to get me in and out. It works pretty good, I'm usually done in 4 minutes or less now, from the 10-20…

Are senators allowed to use visual aids? It'd be pretty ace to see another Senator play this particular video clip in front of the Senate...oops, sorry Kyl, it's back on record.

I would argue that match.com doing background checks might even have a negative impact because running a background check on who someone CLAIMS to be is pretty much worthless. You'll end up with predators like this guy using another person's identity, at least this way he (appears) to have used his actual identity,…

@MrSpork: Censure at a minimum, but I definitely agree there needs to be a higher standard, perhaps a legal standard for truthfulness on the Senate floor. Spout whatever BS you want to cameras on the sidewalk, but when lies come out on the floor there should be real consequences. There's no way to spin this for it…

@MEKitten: I think the point was that the stupid just dies off.

Holy s-word, how bad must all the other companies be!

@immaculate.gaenor: I have to say I took the wrong thing away from your last two sentences.

Jesus, that footage looks like CG from an over-the-top disaster movie, it's hard to believe that shit is real.

@hollowlite: Do you really think other shelters have room? This goes on all the time for a reason.

@MacnairCorinthus: If there's a good reason, then they can get a warrant. PROBLEM SOLVED.

It depends on the setting. When I've worked in offices, blocking sites hasn't made much of a difference, especially now that everyone seems to have a smartphone. At worst, they'd spend so much time trying to get around the blocks or find alternate avenues to waste time that it was probably effecting their…

It's nice to see a featured workspace that looks like someone actually does work in.
