I remember the year the dome was built. I friend of my dad's came over and showed me a swatch of the material that they were using to make the dome. Although I was 9 at the time, I remember thinking "this is going to be the roof?!"

They complain all the time that they need a new stadium (at the tax payer's expense, of course). Just rip off the roof, and you've got an outdoor stadium. Bada-boom, bada-bing.

Nothing says the holidays like wasting taxpayer's money.

I get it. I just don't think it's necessary. To combat this problem myself, I would start with a cut across the top, right on the line. That way there is no need to see the drawn line (because it will be replaced with the first cut). It also promotes a straighter cut in the end.

Meanwhile, the race to Mars is on! Yeah, right. Give it up, NASA. You're glory days are gone. Now you're just wasting money. Spend your time figuring out ways to avoid the next all-living-killer-asteroid.

Cheeky, campy...say what you will about the band. But there was a reason why they were offered a billion (yes, I said BILLION) dollars for a reunion tour back in 2000. For every person who says they were silly, there are about 200 that have one of their albums...and they still play it.

"Hey, whatta ya doin' der? "Whatta ya doin' der?!"

That's just Minnesota-talk. Being a Minnesotan myself, allow me to translate for you:

"HOLY FU@KIN $HIT!! A BEAR!! GET THE FU@K OUT OF HERE BEAR!! GOO AWAAAYY!! (OH GOD, I THINK I JUST $HIT MY PANTS.)"

High-fructose corn syrup (hfcs) is the main culprit for weight gain. That's why it's somewhat laughable to see a fat person order a diet soda, thinking they're doing herself a personal favor.
Soda was originally made with real sugar. In fact, very few countries switched to hfcs, the U.S being one of them. Mainly because it is far cheaper to make soda with it. (Not to mention cookies, frostings, or anything sweet; check the labels, people!)

Call me if anyone gets video of the honeymoon.

fail.

I'm sorry, this is a fail. Though, I loved the dialog:

Him: Will ya marry me?
Her: Shut up!
Him: Will ya marry me?
Her: Yes.
Him: Alright.

@MadMolecule
Tipping is "the last remaining example of the honor system?" Seriously?! You need a corporate chain of Red Lobsters to teach you about honor?!

You can't possibly tell me that the reason for good service at all is because of tips. What if restaurants had a higher set of standards for becoming a waitress? That would eliminate a hell of a lot of people right off the bat. probably the ones who think they're doing the customer a favor by doing their job.

Incidentally, "messing" with someone's food is now a much bigger deal with the advent of more transmittable diseases. Because the staff is in a kitchen or preparation area, they are considered to be in a "privileged position" when handling the food, meaning that if they were to do something to the food they're looking at jail time. Not to mention what I'd do if I found out.

There's no way I'm going to let someone tell me how to tip. If the service was good and THEY were waiting on ME (not the other way around), I will tip generously.

My biggest pet peeve is when people believe that the customer is responsible for a wait staff's pay. That's exactly what the owners of the restaurant want you to think. It's actually a rather impressive business model. It works like this: they get the staff to believe that there's "just no way we can pay you any more than $3 an hour." Then they say the waiter's "pay" comes mostly from tips, so if they get a poor tip, it's the customer's fault - completely disregarding the fact that the customer has already paid too much for a meal that didn't cost nearly as much to make or prepare. Not to mention sparking a whole pseudo-philosophical/ethical debate on why a middle-aged woman working at Denny's should get %20.

If you work as wait staff, you'll most likely find issue with this. However, don't kill the messenger. The current system may be working right now, but only well enough to perpetuate whiny-articles like this to go on uninterrupted. It does no good and people will continue to tip what they want, which is usually plenty.

So the next time you are in a Starbucks and the person handing you your decaf glances at the tip jar, then back at you with a raised eyebrow, give them THIS tip: tell your bosses not to charge $2 for a cup of coffee.

out - f'n - standing.

That's got to be one of the most practical and functional inventions to come about in quite a while. Well done!

lol...doesn't matter. That image is Photoshopped anyway.
