Don't buy something like that for your wife unless she specifically asks you to do so. Then, have at it. (My sister and I both enjoy cooking, and have requested kitchen gadgets from our spouces for Christmas on many occasions.)

Well... I see a clean counter, don't I?

We are siameze if you please. We are siameze if you don't please.

In the US, two hours? There is a very good chance you have not even left the state you are starting in.

You may not have an aptitude for it, but a basic understanding of science and math is essential for being able to function as an adult. Case in point: the current anti-vaccine movement.

Things are getting pretty desperate when you are using kids like this. Physically, you are at your peak around 18, judging from the Army's APFT standards, so it behooves a nation to not send in soldiers that are as young as this kid looks.
The sad part is that this is one of the lucky ones: being captured by the US would mean being sent to America to a POW camp where you would be clothed, fed, protected, and generally taken care of until the end of the war. (Though I wonder what kind of reception he got when he finally went home.)

I am guessing this is an "all you can eat buffet" kind of restaurant. (BTW, does anyone care to guess if this would be legal in the US?)

Having a utility provided by a private business that has a monopoly can work PROVIDED that the appropriate level government has to approve any price increases. I don't know about other US states, but I would presume they generally do like where I grew up: if the Electrical company wanted to increase their prices, they had to explain why to the state legislature, who had the authority to approve/disapprove/modify their request.
If the gas utility company mentioned in the post is charging what appears to be too much, the city needs to step in and either 1) force the gas company to lower their prices, or 2) have a public explanation as to WHY they charge what they do.

If your boy/girlfriend tells you, "I think we should see other people," rest assured, they already have someone in mind.

One of my all time favorites

April 25. It's not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket.

How much do these things cost, versus how much extra milk? There is no way that the economics on this work.

Yeah, that happens. If they are too friendly, then they can't do the job of a police dog.

I think I read about this. They didn't realize what had happened until they got home and were going back through the pictures. It made for a cool story.

This was taken right before she gutted the photographer and then strangled them with their own intestines.

Actually, fiance', but still a great guy. Best wishes to the both of them.

This is in Australia (of course), and is actually a statue of a snake. (Sorry to burst anyone's bubble!)

If the kid can already cure cancer, why does he need to go to college?

Aren't you supposed to have a safety line hooked up, for this very reason?

There are a fair number of Trump voters that feel the same way.

Even though this cartoon was drawn decades ago, I can't help but thinking, "Well, to be fair, if they are still using a rotary phone, a VCR, and CRT TV, they are still kinda in the Stone Ages." :)
