Possums are very resistant to rabies. Their low body temperature usually keeps the disease from spreading if it enters their body. They might try to gnaw off your leg, but at least they won't infect you.

On the Christmas of 1979, the first president of Equatorial Guinea had killed 150 of his opponents by the soldiers who are dressed in Santa costumes, while playing "Those Were the Days."

Today I learned it is not an especially grand idea to take Cymbalta for months on end and then suddenly stop. I thought this shit was only helping my nerve pain, it didn't seem to affect me mentally at all... while I was on it. As soon as I stopped taking it for a couple days out of curiosity... holy shit... it's like my brain suddenly turned into Stephen King's nightmare! I don't recommend going into the scary stories thread. My mind is on creeptacular overdrive right now, I can't even sleep because I keep dreaming of the most insanely horrible things imaginable. So I think I'll start taking it again... or maybe switch to the 30mg instead of the 60mg... also I feel kind of bad about that bully thread, I may have taken that a bit too literally.

[Douglas Reynholm]

USA imported cheetos are insanely expensive, like more expensive than a pack of 20 smokes. Bless the polish aisle at the supermarket, almost 4 times cheaper.

Sauerkraut originated in China, where it was produced with rice wine not salt.

Crabcakes that say they have "natural and artificial crab meat" aren't worth buying.
