Keep telling your sons their masculinity is toxic. I'm sure things will work out well, and they won't come to hate you refuse to speak with you.

Oh, and remember, they will chose the nursing home you get put in when you're old and grey.

“What do you do?” is now considered impolite. The Huffington Post has called it a “conversation killer” and the Boston Globe’s Robin Abrahams called it “the lamest party question.”

In the 150 years since Schwendener, biologists have tried in vain to grow lichens in laboratories. Whenever they artificially united the fungus and the alga, the two partners would never fully recreate their natural structures. It was as if something was missing—and Spribille might have discovered it.

He has shown that largest and most species-rich group of lichens are not alliances between two organisms, as every scientist since Schwendener has claimed. Instead, they’re alliances between three. All this time, a second type of fungus has been hiding in plain view.

Darth, that reminds me of one of my favorite jokes from college, "what did the fungi say to the algae? I'm takin a lichen to you."

Yeah, I was a late bloomer.

Hooray! A win for socialized medicine

How dare those parents think their child was more important that The State's ledger?

How dare they think they could spend their own money once the state decided to stop spending theirs?

Texas emulating-ish France?

It is like that in most of the US Sixclaws.

Lujlp: People travel here from Britain for treatments all the time. So the real question is what was the NHS so desperate to hide? Illegal experimentation? Undisclosed chemical exposure? Illegal drug trial on mom? There is a reason they literally imprisoned and allowed-forced-an infant to die, and it wasnt the meagerly offered "best interest of the child" that theyre trying to claim.

TSA is trying to save us from the scourge of comic books. Since United is involved, and TSA is denying it, it's either United being United, or TSA is furiously backpedaling.

This will improve your spirits. Unless your job requires the surgical removal of your sense of humor.

The ad is actually funny. If anything, the ad channels Chinese mothers in law of yore.

In the 34-second ad for Audi's secondhand cars in China, a groom and bride are in the middle of declaring their wedding vows when the groom's mother suddenly marches down the aisle to interrupt the proceedings to give her future daughter-in-law one final inspection. The older woman roughly checks the blushing bride's eyes, ears and mouth as if she was a cow.

Internet Cafe refugees

Fumiya started living at an internet cafe after he left his job with a dormitory. He looked for an apartment but it was more than he could afford. He was initially renting a private booth for 12 hours just to sleep, but he soon realized that he could actually live there. For the internet cafe he lives, Fumiya chose a discounted monthly package and pays 1,920 yen (US$25) a day, which comes down to a monthly rent of about US $750. Still, it is cheaper than renting an apartment because he does not have to pay for utilities. It is clean and offers unlimited free drinks, blankets, and cushions. The booth is partitioned by about 5.9ft walls and a door, and Fumiya can enjoy his bath-tub size privacy of a 5.9ft x 3.9ft space, which is big enough to sleep without bending his knees.
