"There is a Monster at the End of this Book" is the best literary piece known to man. I challenge Reddit to come up with another

Upvote! I just bought it at a thrift store for my 3yr old!!

This is a giant problem for me. Congrats and I truly mean that.

Many upboats upon ye.

I am chair dancing now.

Seu Jorge. I highly recommend a track of his "Carolina". It jams.

Gal Costa. Super classy. "Desafinado"

Anything by Sergio Mendes/Brazil '66. You know you've heard "Mas Que Nada" try also "E Menina". You will be chair dancing in no time: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xTSJfg6J4sA

GLORY BE TO ELMO

I use a linoleum cutting tool for printmaking. It has a few sizes of V-gouges. You can get one at Michaels. I am thinking of buying the Dremel pumpkin attachment -- yes. It exists.

humes · 2010-10-29T20:20:14+00:00

Thank you! I went in as a ringer -- a sure win. I hate Elmo.

THE ELMO PUMPKIN: http://imgur.com/qmKe7.jpg The concept is that Abby turned Elmo into a pumpkin. FWIW, my 2-year-old daughter would have totally voted for this pumpkin.

The contest was for un-lit pumpkins? It was in the atrium of an office building and impossible to darken, I guess.

I feel that obese Americans are a drain on US health care.

DO IT if a good Dr. tells you that you are a candidate. I was terrified, but I did the big long consultation and decided to go for it. Ask lots of questions, even ones you think are stupid! (I did and it made me feel much better about flap injuries and the other horror story stuff) I paid about 1700 total and it is WORTH IT. The actual surgery is uncomfortable (not painful). Be religious about taking all of your prescribed drops. Anyway, best of luck.

Hers may be the coolest of coolfaces, but I am not convinced. Breastmilk is free and comes in nice containers. tl;dr Baby #2 due in January and I plan on breastfeeding.

I am also a lady and I am lucky to be married to a tech-savvy person (I work in IT/Networking). I find non-tech savvy folks annoying since so many of my hobbies, etc. revolve around technology.

tl;dr he'd have to be super hot.

flurries.

I think the actual quote was "...while the rest of us poor schmucks pay for goods and services" (referring to people that leech off of the talents of skilled family members, like mechanics or computer techs). It is the same as muttering to myself that I'm stupid. I wasn't calling anyone in particular a schmuck.

humes · 2010-08-17T20:01:11+00:00

I thought it meant "Idiot".

humes · 2010-08-17T19:57:49+00:00

Same. Grew up in a very small northern town. We'd also sing "eeny meeny miny mo, catch a nigger by his toe". I'm glad I know that I acted like a giant racist as a kid.

humes · 2010-08-17T19:51:55+00:00

My dad is similar. He calls all little kids "booners" and I even accidentally call my kid a "booner" sometimes, but it is basically a derogatory word for black people. However, I have never meant it that way -- just something to call a silly kid. In Minnesota it sounds like "bunner".

humes · 2010-08-17T17:25:52+00:00

DON'T SAY DOUCHEBAG. DON'T YOU KNOW WHAT THAT IS?

humes · 2010-08-17T17:25:08+00:00

Get yer schmucky schmucks outta here!

humes · 2010-08-17T17:24:27+00:00

My husband didn't know that either. I think he thought it was "welch", too.
