Dear School,
It took this guy 5 min to clear up a lifetime of confusion. Why didn’t you just teach me this?
Thanks Charlotte
Boston Crowded With ‘Snow Farms’ - NYTimes.com →
Some snow-savvy cities, like Minneapolis, have invested in machines called Snow Dragons that can melt 30 tons of snow an hour, filter out pollutants and trash and send the snowmelt down a storm drain. Boston has rebuffed the idea in the past, but Ms. Massaro said that “any option is on the table” at this point.
Please test this on my street please.
SUPER STRAW!!!

Listen Downstairs Neighbor....
It was NOT the boyfriend of the girl on the 3rd floor who just shoveled the shit out of our front driveway/sidewalk/stairs. It is the girl that you see in front of you covered in snow, salt, sweat, and fury, holding a shovel. So please, let’s have that conversation about how helpful he is, how he seems to shovel so fast, and how awesome his glasses are, but maybe not today. This is not his...

An Audience That Was In On The Joke
The Depression-era writers of Duck Soup could joke about this stuff because after three years of economic crisis, every member of the audience would get the joke. And later audiences confronting similar situations have gotten it too.

Question: Can you tell us anything about the Grey’s Anatomy musical episode? —Ana
Ausiello: I got my hands on a partial song list: Among the tracks being covered by the cast are The Fray’s “How to Save a Life” and Snow Patrol’s “Chasing Cars.” In related news, this episode will either be a show-stopping triumph or a spectacular failure. There can be no in between.
This is the worst thing.

Jon Stewart Disproves Megyn Kelly’s Nazi Claims
Discrediting Megyn Kelly’s laughable assertion that Fox News hosts and guests never compare opponents to Nazis is like shooting Nazis in a barrel.

Gadsby by Ernest Vincent Wright
Some might call Gadsby a “love” story. But Ernest Vincent Wright wouldn’t have used that word. Instead, he described his novel as a story of “strong liking” and “throbbing palpitation.” That’s because in 1939, Wright gave himself one restriction: He…
