Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your

A lawyer I used to know enticed me to go work at his firm because, as he put it, this is dinosaur litigation â my daughter [who was a toddler at the time] is going to retire on these lawsuits! The problem is that dinosaur litigation is stultifyingly boring.
Eggs florentine for me, but Iâm with you. I donât do ham, but anything else you can put a poached egg on. Salmon, crab cakes, spinachâŚI got a brunch bowl of quinoa-root veggie salad with a poached egg once. So good!
I read an article in the New Yorker once about how the Woodstock festival would have been an absolute disaster without the charity of the locals and volunteers like you. Thank you for being there for people who didnât have a clue what they were doing!
Is that the one where they discuss the tortoise that was so delicious that it went extinct before scientists could study it because the sailors kept eating them on the boats back to Europe? That was a great episode!
I love QI so much! On an episode of David Mitchellâs other show, The Unbelievable Truth, someone claimed something as true that he heard on QI, and they got in a squabble about how reliable QI may or may not be. Sandi Toksvig quickly retorted that âyou will find that that was before my time.â It might have been the âearth has only one moonâ contention, which was later retracted.
Maybe earlier. Sterling can drive at 15. 14 if his dad is willing to say itâs necessary for his fishing business, possibly. Agriculture allows you to do a lot, but I donât know if fishing is in that category. My dad taught me to drive when I was 9, but I wasnât actually allowed to drive anywhere. It was for âfarm emergenciesâ only, which never transpired.
I still use nimrod a decent amount. I donât go around insulting people constantly, but I like English panel/game shows, like House of Games, and I will shout at the contestants on the screen when they screw up in stupid ways. Sadly, Iâm not eighty years old or a guy who yells at kids to stay off his lawn, so I have no excuse to shout at the tv, but I still do it.
I grew up with Bugs Bunny and never knew that. Iâve often wondered about the hunter to idiot demotion. Thanks for the info! The old cartoons were a lot more highbrow than some people gave them credit for. (I learned âPardon me whilst I adjust my accoutrementsâ from Daffy Duck, and I use it to this day. If youâre an adult who doesnât watch cartoons, I bet itâs weird for an 8-yr-old to be saying accoutrements.)
