Did you write the earlier volumes too? I haven't heard of the comics before now, so I'm curious.

I put an average of 10 jokes on every page! Think of how many jokes that is! You will need a special shelf to hold that many jokes, and it will be WORTH IT.

All reports say "lol, no" but I've turned off enough bullshit that it seems to work for me.

Here's hoping Canada picks Washington and Oregon. Then we can colloquially call ourselves "Baja BC"

On my honeymoon last year, I bought an artsy glass dish, and at the game table I keep my dice in it. There's a fancy TSR d4 for # of color spray targets, a d3 for # of mana storm targets, Imajewels for marking enemies w ongoing effects, and three d20s for attacking multiple targets.

Whatever else you might think about Linus Tech Tips, he makes a good case for living in Canada without setting out to do so.

You ever think about how the color of the liquid they use to demonstrate the effectiveness of pads and tampons is blue and not red?

Do you think people would be grossed out if it was red?

What if it was green?

I view myself as "very online" but I have no fucking clue who these people are what their music is. Look, I'm pushing 50 and have blocked every annoying asshole in the world. My block list is 7.9 billion people long, and I'm side-eyeing that last .1.

I don't, for pretty much the same reason. Also, I'm a wimp when it comes to pain.

As a Bay Area native, I’m supposed to hate The Dodgers, but my grandma was a huge Dodgers fan, even before they moved to LA.

So, I know who I’m rooting for!

This one’s for you Granny!

My friend had some success escaping the high cost Bay Area in Oregon near the coast. Maybe Coos Bay or Baden? I was able to swing San Diego 15 years ago, but I’m not sure about it now.

EXCLUSIVE: One Saturday afternoon in October, my phone lit up with a notification.

I glanced down at the message.

“Anna, Lindsey Halligan here,” it began.

So began my text exchange with the woman who is prosecuting the president's perceived political enemies.

Was such a crowded weekend, forgot to mention that PHOENIX was a riff on this past Batgirl Supergirl piece (for "crabby").
