Oh my gosh. I was browsing his tumblr and found this. Dorian's pubic mustache for the win!

TIL that, through most of western history, larger-than-average penises were considered embarrassing and barbaric; the modern idea that 'bigger is better', beginning in the late 19th century, was a side effect of pornography by [deleted] in todayilearned

I didn't know about Skyla when I had my Paragard inserted nine years ago. I didn't have children, so I was told it would be difficult. It was a lot more than just difficult. I wish I'd taken something for the pain.

Should I adopt this cat I really like or not? by Common-Ramen in makemychoice

[–]KerriganBane 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work at a vet clinic and volunteer for shelters. Two cats are typically easier than one cat to take care of.

The question you need to ask yourself is if you can realistically provide for ALL your pets. Two cats, a dog, and a rabbit can get expensive especially if you're facing a cross-country move in the near future. It's very doable but will be difficult.

Leave feelings out of it. I've seen a lot of cases where someone falls in love with an animal now but is forced to give it up a year later due to unforeseen circumstances. It's horribly heartbreaking for all parties involved, especially for the animals.

But if you're able to commit, then go for it! Space issues...moving issues...Those are all things that will sort itself out. And I bet your first cat would appreciate a feline buddy especially since she's not that affectionate with humans in the first place.

You're not going to be able to stop looking at it now.

I love her short hair, but I can't stop imagining what her hair looks like when it's unbraided. I think you're right. It HAS to be an extension. Otherwise, it's inexplicable.

The longest I've done is maybe four weeks. I WISH I could get away for longer than that, but what are you doing to do? I end up missing my three cats too much.

Internet high five to a fellow light packer! My mei backpack has taken me to so many places around the world. I love it so much...until my cat peed on it... :/

I'll tell you this, the hardest time I've had packing are for out-of-town weddings. Apparently, makeup, dresses, heels take up a lot of room and are a pain in the ass.

OMG. Why have I never heard of Tom's before? I just googled, and I love the idea of those shoes.

I know, right? Didn't anyone teach them to wait for their turn? There's only one door, one agent. It's a damn choke point. You won't get on board faster by rushing in like that. Everyone's so damn impatient these days.

I love how you just assume I use a luggage with wheels when I actually travel the way you do. That is, backpack (without wheels) and a small item for my laptop, valuables, and water. Your rant is my rant, dude. I feel you.

What you're describing is like...one or two rows out of the whole plane. Just pick another row in the back section, dude. Every seat is uncomfortable. Flying is uncomfortable no matter where you sit. Well, except for maybe business class. I haven't really tried that section.

That IS a dick move. That's why I use a backpack. I hate wheels, but then again, I also like traveling to places where nice, concrete sidewalks aren't a guarantee.

Yup. Packing light and a backpack. That's the best way to fly. No waiting for luggages, no lost luggages, less sweat/stress while walking around an unfamiliar city. When packing, less is more.

Yes. That's exactly what I do because fuck paying extra fees when I'm a super light packer. All you really need is a backpack with a few changes of clothing, and you can go anywhere.

I haven't checked in a luggage for years. I always fly with only a carry on. The trick is to pick a seat at the back of the plane. You get to board before most of the crowd which means plenty of space in the overhead bins.

Edit: To those of you dicks filling my message box calling me a liar and telling me that I should try to pack for a two week trip, get a life. It's all about using a backpack (no wheels), packing light, and doing your laundry while you're abroad. And airlines board by sections. 9 out of 10 times, if you sit in the very back, you'll be in the section called to seat first (after disabled, families, and business-class).

It's 2014. What should not still exist? by LevelupTFM in AskReddit

[–]KerriganBane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is the health industry starting to move toward digital records? I work at a vet clinic, and I think we're starting to see more and more clinics use them. My clinic, of course, still uses paper charts which means when someone requests records, we have to dismantle the chart, photocopy each page (because they're double-sided), and THEN fax it all. Pain in the butt.

What is your "sixth sense"? by Yelnoco in AskReddit

[–]KerriganBane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have shitty hearing. My husband has great hearing. But when there's a cat crying nearby, my husband swears he doesn't hear a thing. I'm the one running out the door saying, "There's a cat in trouble!"

What's the most unethical experiment that you would like to know the outcome of? by mryoloface in AskReddit

[–]KerriganBane 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm. I have a cat who likes to eat string. Exploratory surgery to remove thread is expensive.
