A dachshund named "Dottie Matrix" - how can you help but love?

What a cutie! And speaking of geeky dog names, my sister and BIL have four dogs: Mama and Papa dogs Ergo (my BIL's line of work is ergonomics) and Pixel (my sis is in IT), and the two puppies, Data and Qwerty.

I'd say gay chicken is like slash--only counts if the players are canonically straight.

OK, who can come up with the best sentence incorporating the terms "gay chicken" and "cock-block"?

A brush is like a stamp, ita. Some are images and others are "brushes" in the sense that they make a different kind of stroke. You can, for example, "brush" a brick background.

Thanks, Ginger. That simplifies some of the stuff I've been looking at a great deal.

Well, I suppose you could have participants sufficiently unappealing that people into their gender wouldn't want to kiss them either, but then it wouldn't so much be gay chicken as butt-ugly chicken.

It's an exciting day in celebrity news!

Simon Cowell admits to using botox! Doesn't find Nicole Kidman fanciable!

Kid Rock pleads not guilty to Waffle House fight charge! Cites Johnny Cash!

As a fat person/person-of-size/whatever you want to call me, I find this to be made of teh awesome! Now if only I could be so quick with the retort the next time something like that happens to me...

I find this to be made of teh awesome!

Hee! That's an awesome story!

Damn, it's awesome but also horrifying, you know?

Great story! It's so great when people get to say the things that normally would end up being "what I wish I said".

Although as someone who doesn't generally tip at coffee places, I was struck by this:

she doesn't say a damn word, or leave a tip--she storms off...

I generally overtip cabdrivers, delivery people, and the like. Is it so abnormal not to feel the need to tip someone for getting me a coffee?
