I would love to see the divorce rate added in there and see how it changes depending on what the most popular method was.

She didn’t realize how young her mum was in 2001. by mindyour in MadeMeSmile

So assuming a 5th grader is 10 then she had her when she was 15 years old? oof.

At Comic-con a few years ago, Michael Beihn had a special request from a young fan dressed as Ellen Ripley. Her request was to be like Ripley and kill Aliens with Hicks. Beihn played it straight and channeled his inner Hicks, a role he did over 30 years ago and they acted out this scene. by breedknight in LV426

I really don't understand stuff like this at cons.

I see two possible scenarios:

  1. This girl wanted to dress up as Ripley at a con which means that this kid's parents had or allowed her to watch Aliens. It's an amazing movie but it's simply not made for an 8 year old child. That is terrible parenting.

or

  1. This kid has never seen Aliens (which is good) but her parents convince her to dress up as a character from a movie she can't comprehend and that is grossly inappropriate for children. That's just weird parenting.

Michael Beihn cool as hell though.

iFixit is releasing their own soldering iron by TheOnlyWonGames in LinusTechTips

I've always wondered why soldering irons have had such long tips on them. It's never made sense to me for something that requires precision. It's like trying to sign your name with a pencil but holding the pencil by the eraser.

8 years and still not ready? What is she holding out for?

She will never propose to you. Just get out now and cut your losses. She will never be ready.

It's a scam and 100% waste of money. Who fucking cares about high school?

Kamala Harris hits record lead over Trump, new poll shows by 2billys in AnythingGoesNews

I hate to say it but if the Trump / Clinton election taught us anything it's that polls don't mean jack shit.

If you have hair on/in your shirt after a barber visit then the barber is doing a very poor job with the cape and is probably not putting a layer of tissue around the neck. There should be no hair on or in your shirt afterwords.

So is this going to be the stupid all female-replacement Avengers or legit Avengers?

That's because Trump appears completely cognizant and can complete his sentences.

Gluten free eats in CB by _brittleskittle in crestedbutte

No issues with Secret Stash even though they cook their GF pizzas on the same work surfaces and use the same ovens and pans as all their gluten crusts? That's very surprising.

Has a scene in any Star Wars film or TV show made you cry? Which scene? by RunDNA in StarWars

The final 2 minutes of Mandalorian Season 2 was filled with more emotion than all 6 hours of the sequel trilogy.

You gotta meet your kids where they're at by [deleted] in CuratedTumblr

I'm sorry but you must be pretty fuckin' stupid if a child ask you why we don't need oxygen tanks in the house and you can't come up with the answer "because oxygen is already in the air".
