Kathy A: You mean it wasn't at Stephen Colbert's book club? He didn't beat his dad and Louis Farrakhan (and Stephen) in a drinking game of "Spot the Zionist Plot"? I'm disappointed.

Ann, that's a ferret.
Things aren't always as they seem, as noted in Bitches:
Emily: I keep hearing noises like someone on the other side of the wall is having rather meaningful sex, which is a bit odd.
Turns out it's the coffeemaker. Now that's disturbing.
Frankenbuddha: You know in nine months it's going to pop out a little toaster oven...

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

What is even happening?
Sue:
[Quotes The Globe and Mail] The question is quite simple: Do we like short hair on women? And the answer is quite predictable: No, we do not. It seems masculine and practical and deliberately asexual. We like the conventionally feminine. Sorry. We can't help this. And there's no sense in lying about it.

Dear Editors of The Globe and Mail,
Do we like predictable, sexist columnists? No, we don't. It seems awfully lazy to take a personal preference, stick in a few hot-button gender issues and then toss off a few dazzling female celebrities who can manage to break the stereotype while staying in this asshole's spank bank.
I'd write more but I'm off to get a pixie cut at my stylist's.
Sincerely,
Me

How can we possibly know that the rueben on dark rye with corned beef rather than pastrami, sauerkraut rather than coleslaw, and thousand island rather than Russian dressing, is the version that came first? We can't. It's ineffable. All we are left with then is one sandwich with many forms. How can we Earthly beings then say this sandwich is one of the forms, but this other is not? That is only for the One True Sandwich to know, if such a Rueben even exists.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
This just needs to be immortalized...
