Where's the thin white duke?

But the rattlesnake was safely in a nice terrarium. They didn't charge him anything for that.

Where you start doesn't dictate where you finish. Congrats.

My dream house is one that someone else has to clean.

Every night shift worker can relate. This should be standard posted on night shift worker door.

I work admin in a hospital operating theatre. 110% guarantee our surgeons would do this - just not in the sterile theatre. As the child goes to the recovery room, they would do it there.

My 14 year old daughter "discovered" them and was happily telling me about them. I didn't have the heart to tell her I'm an old fan lol.

We have lots of deer in Australia too. What the heck???

Isn't Earth Day already a thing? Has been for years? One evening in March everyone turns off their lights for an hour.

Australian who works in a public hospital here. Locum doctors here earn $3000 PER DAY. The system isn't perfect but people here don't die of easily treatable diseases like diabetes because they can't afford the medicine. Their insurance doesn't stop because their illness means they can't work anymore. My tax bill last year was about $5000 (i'm a low income earner). That gives me free roads, police, education and health. How much was your insurance?

It worked :)

Adorableness overload

Is anyone going to point out that that is a catfish?

Meanwhile in Australia, "Insulin syringes are single-use only, and are free for people in Australia registered with the National Diabetes Service Scheme (NDSS)"

I don't know the figures for the US but here in Australia, homicide of a woman is 94% likely to be a domestic partner. Homicide of a man is 16% likely to be a domestic partner, including a male partner.

Does electricity/gas/water/food cost less? I know there are subsidised housing and discounts for public transport, but it still costs roughly the same to live with some level of dignity regardless of your level of developmental ability.

We know the start and the end, what the hell happened in those 52 replies????

I've never played Minecraft (my kids have, tho) so I think I have to read this book now.

Time to start filling out that t-shirt

This can happen. My son (the muscle bound body-building jock) was best mates with the nerdiest, most nervous skinny kid in school. The teachers would often tell me how much they helped each other. Sadly we lost contact with the nerdy boy when we moved, but my muscle bound completely straight son is now a nurse.
