It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

I don't know if anyone will have the same reaction but the last entry here and the subsequent comments have me crying because I'm trying so hard to keep from laughing out loud.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

it might also be called field or meadow green, the color of weeds & crabgrass in long island by the ponds

Such poetry! Gawker Stalker is much cooler than Defamer's Privacywatch, I swear.

World's smallest fish discovered in Thailand.

BANGKOK, Thailand - Scientists have discovered the world's smallest fish on record in an acidic peat swamp in Indonesia, with a see-through body and a head that is unprotected by a skeleton, researchers said Wednesday.

"This is one of the strangest fish that I've seen in my whole career,' said Ralf Britz, zoologist at the Natural History Museum in London, who helped analyze the fish's skeleton. "It's tiny, it lives in acid and it has these bizarre grasping fins. I hope we'll have time to find out more about them before their habitat disappears completely."

The previous record for small size, according to the Natural History Museum in London, was held by an 8-millimeter species of Indo-Pacific goby.

Anxious fathers increase birth-pain levels, study says.

Scientists found a woman's level of fear and anxiety about surgery was likely to be raised if their birth partner was anxious too.

This increased their pain levels, potentially affecting recovery, and compromising breastfeeding and bonding with their newborn child.

The UK study features in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine.

I have a question for all you classy people out there. Say you're going out to a very class-ay restaurant with a pricey tasting menu of, say, seven or nine courses. There's an additional wine pairing for an astronomical charge. Are those full pours? It's not seven or nine glasses of wine, is it?
