Drinking Game: Wizard's Staff
You may or may not have heard of Wizard’s Staff. This is a drinking game in which as you drink canned beer you begin taping together your empty can to your next can. As you go on you can begin to order those with a smaller staff around (fantastically phallic I know). Now, in the mundane version you must “battle the boss” which means at certain levels of your staff you must take a...

Y'know...
I don’t think it is a good idea to tell a burly man that has been without his medication for the week that you cannot currently fill his mood stabilizers… Especially when you greet him by saying “Gee, it looks like you’re having a bad day.”

The Dancing Plague (or Dance Epidemic) of 1518 was a case of dancing mania that occurred in Strasbourg, France (then part of the Holy Roman Empire) in July 1518.

Jambalaya's on!

Making it in the crock pot to slow simmer for the rest of the day.
My first attempt at this, but after tasting the bottled seasoning mix I paid a dollar for at the store, I was annoyed, did a little research, and made some real creole seasoning from everything else I already had.

I...

Confession...
I love the smell of napkins from plastic cutlery sets that come with salt and pepper.
So I'm standing in the coffee shop holding my bag...
Douchebag: (leaning way too close to me like a hair-sniffing-creeper and trying to be sultry but actually just coming off douchey) It's sexy when a woman has good taste in coffee.
Me: Oh really? My boyfriend would definitely agree.
Douchebag: *hangs head, steps away, and sniffles*
The Author: Mmm... my doughnut I have found yo- *bump, doughnut falls to the floor*
Douchebag: Oh sorry I di- *WOP*
Douchebag: Ow! Why di- *WOP*
The Author: That's for hitting on my woman *WOP*
Douchebag: I'm sor- *WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP*

The Author: Ow! Wh- *WOP*

I work during the day at a Ballet company. One of the best in the Country, and near the top of the list world-wide.
I work in the Marketing Department, but my phone extension is similar to that of the box office, so I often take ticket requests in my downtime.
The next show we have coming up is…
If you are a parent, or hope to be one…. read this, breath this, understand this.

Me: "Mmm... chocolate orange doughnut" *Bump, doughnut falls to the dirty 7-11 floor*
Masked Gunman: "Everybody Down! Give me all the money!"
Me: "You Son of a Bitch!"
Gunman: "I sai-" *Wop*
Me: All *Wop* I *Wop* Wanted *Wop* Was *Wop* That *Wop* Doughnut! *Wop*

I think if they knew how tempting they looked to me alone they’d stay at home and never come out again. Looks like breakfast… lean and quick.
I want these jammies!

Five cents were withheld from his pay during that period, and he received a lump-sum payout of seventeen cents from Social Security.” (cite http://www.ssa.gov/history/briefhistory3.html#firstcheck) “The first monthly payment was issued on January 31,...

Manliest Cities in America →
All right, now that I am awake, no longer grumpy, and have sometime I am going to make my peace with this article. So article, please allow me to finish as I was kind enough to read you to the end without interruption.
Manliest Cities. What an interesting concept. The idea that A) a geographic location has masculinity and B) that the level of it’s masculinity can be measured. I will concede...
