Why you gotta earworm me with "White and Nerdy"? Why? Why? Why?
Because it just rocks so hard? Seriously, that is one catchy-ass song. The original possibly even more so.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
It's completely catchy. And I love it. But it's -- as mentioned before -- completely catchy. And having hand-walked Crazy Rus. Prof. through the process of starting up her Dostoyevsky slideshow 12 times in a row because she needed to review just one more time, I am now caught.
(But, on the other hand, yes, Dostoevsky = White and Nerdy. That part rocks.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The Sarkozy Effect: Male Plastic Surgery Boom
Growing numbers of middle-aged men embarking on second marriages are trying to turn the clock back with plastic surgery, experts claim.
Surgeons at a Harley Street clinic say more and more "alpha males", particularly those who are marrying younger women, are going under the knife, with Botox and male breast reduction top of the list.

Demand for male breast reduction surgery has increased by 47 per cent, and 43 per cent more men have undergone microdermabrasion - when the outer surface of the skin is sloughed off.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
What's the Latin phrase for "among others"? As in, "Bon bon made the argument, _____, that Stoneridge was wrongly decided"? Starts with an et but I don't think it's et alia.

et al.
eta: Or is that the same as et alia?
eta²: et al means "and the rest," right? So maybe not what you want....

Wikipedia says:
inter alia : Latin for "among other things", but not an abbreviation.
inter alios : Latin for "among others", i.e. people, or legal entities, but not an abbreviation.
