What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Ha, I didn't realize there were so many different Hulk Twitters besides FeministHulk.

Not quite last.

I'm starting to see a trend. For jobs that pay very little, I am handed a bottle of wine with my check. Is this so that I develop a hobby/habit for when I'm destitute?

Brenda's sister sends a thank you to all of us for our concern. She found it reassuring.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."
