'Objects In Space'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
OMG, I wish Huckabee were someone whose positions I liked. Because I love the Chuck Norris ad, and I thought the stuff someone here (Tommy?) posted about his wife was kinda awesome too. Dang.
Q-tips were originally called "Baby Gays."
...I....what?? WHY?
...I....what?? WHY?
They never really explained that. But they did decide it was a good thing the name had been changed, since walking into a drugstore these days and asking for "Baby Gays" would probably get you arrested.
I adore baby gays. They're prosh. I want to pat them on the head. Occasionally I want to go "young lady, in my day we didn't HAVE GSAs and hold hands with our girlfriend in MIDDLE SCHOOL".
But I am not inspired to stick them in my ears.
Okay, so I'm trying to clean up my apartment after being stuck in a depression that left me unable to do any sort of rudimentary housekeeping.
There was an enormous pile of dishes. I mean, it spilled over onto the counters and stove. And as I got to the bottom of it all, I found an ENORMOUS BUG. Drowned. I have no idea what sort of bug it is. I don't have a garbage disposal. I have to pick it out of the drain. I find myself completely unable to do this. The thing is as long as my pinky finger, and it has antennae, and creepy legs, and I CAN SEE ITS DEAD EYES.
Yuck, Allyson! I'm going to recommend a pile of paper towels and a plastic bag as a glove. So you don't have to see it or feel it.
In other bug news, could the fruit flies seriously be living in my coffee maker??? Why god why.
Allyson, as bad as that is, try finding a DROWNED MOUSE in your soup pot that you left to soak in the sink overnight.
Jumbo the elephant was bought by P.T. Barnum for $10,000. He made Barnum over a million and a half dollars before he was hit by a train and killed. Then Barnum had him stuffed, and people still paid to see him.
There will never be bluebirds over the white cliffs of Dover, because there are no bluebirds in England. The songwriter was American.
NO ONE UPSMANSHIP ON THE GROSS!
Or ita will show up with the one true link to rule them all.

Yes. I don't know what they're eating, though. It must be whatever's in coffee that grows that bright blue mold when you leave the coffee for a week or so.
