It's appalling that not only was the john's picture and identity not posted, but he was not even arrested, based on "officer discretion." Read as "men watch out for their own."

And yeah, imagine how desperate you'd have to be to trade sex for food. This isn't funny. It's sad.

I love lists like this, but when it comes time to actually use the substance (coffee filter, toothpaste, peanut butter) for the whatever (remove gum from hair, polish jewelry, diffuse light on camera flash), I'm 99% likely to misremember and use the wrong substance for the task.

This can lead to awkward moments, when your spouse asks you "why are you putting peanut butter on that DVD?"

...Not that this has ever happened to me. Um.

To make my blog more awesome. (I'm not at the "details" phase yet, obvsly...)

Going to knit up an aardvark cosy, BRB.

I love -- LOVE -- the unicorn.

Watching this was a pleasant way to wake up today. The sound was a nice touch.

I really liked that article -- now I know something about sumo wrestling. And soup!

(I had to look up mirin, though.)

Meh. Brain activity reacts to and is shaped by experience. Men are rewarded more when they're young for competition and aggression. I think this study can just as easily be read as confirming society's ability to shape brain chemistry.

Giant Santa is sort of creepy. His beard has a Cthulu Claus vibe.

Wicked awesome! Wish this was a real thing you could buy, and I'd get it for my designer friends.

I blogged these a while back, too. They're fascinatingly awful.

@Video Game Dork: no, that's only past the sign, to the left. To the right you can park at some times, if you have a Texas Instruments calculator and did well on story problems in Algebra I.

The "mallow fries" look like some kind of disgusting fungus. Something you'd see growing under dead bodies, or around a toilet in a decaying house. Ewww(infinity).

Cute video. They seem maybe a little TOO into it, but then again, I can't jump into my jeans from a pogo stick, so maybe I shouldn't criticize.

I was wondering about cancer, too, but it seems like the twigs and stuff would likely insulate the eggs from seepage, right?
