Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Hey, now leeches serve a valid medical purpose! Just not usually blood letting per se. But hmm, what about fire cupping?

Fire cupping is cool. Although I've never done it for medical purposes.

And fecal transplants. Anyone else heard of that one?

That is seriously cool. C. difficile is a nasty, nasty bastard.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Allyson, I completely support your rant. Anyone whose comment on Leonard Cohen is "zzzz" is an ass. He sounds like a seriously whiny douchebag. And I'll take the Beastie Boys over KISS any day and twice on Sundays.

I support Allyson's rant, but personally I like KISS better than the Beasties. Don't worry, Pete has explained to me at length how wrongheaded this is.

Always Anti-fascist!

I think they just have aHOF so stupid guys can opine about it, but if you think they should be in there, they should, Allyson. Kiss sux.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Why would anyone kiss sux....oh.

I actually came here for cooking advice.

If a recipe, on the back of the box, says to bake at 350º for 28 minutes for a 13 x 9 pan, at 30 minutes for a 9 x 9 pan and 45 minutes for a 8x8 pan how long should I bake if I'm putting the brownie batter in mini cupcake pans?

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

Man Walks All Day to Create Spectacular Snow Patterns:

Artist Simon Beck must really love the cold weather! Along the frozen lakes of Savoie, France, he spends days plodding through the snow in raquettes (snowshoes), creating these sensational patterns of snow art. Working for 5-9 hours a day, each final piece is typically the size of three soccer fields! The geometric forms range in mathematical patterns and shapes that create stunning, sometimes 3D, designs when viewed from higher levels.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Dude, I am sitting in the corner with your most excellent Beastie Boys rant. Together, we are fighting for our right to party.

Our wings are not tired.

I totally thought this would end with:

If a recipe, on the back of the box, says to bake at 350º for 28 minutes for a 13 x 9 pan, at 30 minutes for a 9 x 9 pan and 45 minutes for a 8x8 pan how long should I bake if I'm putting the brownie batter in mini cupcake pans if one is headed West at 45 MPH and the other is headed East at 90MPH?

*Mini* cupcake pans? Start checking at 12 minutes, maybe? Or 15?
