thepipes I hate her selfishness too, but I think it is part of what makes her character realistic to me. She is selfish and very goal oriented, but comes through when it is important and that is how a lot of real people are

Chuck Pahlaniuk, anyone?

inkyuboz @inkyuboz (1392) • Mandaluyong City, Philippines 26 Jan 09

He's a shock-fiction author, and I think he likes pushing the envelope. One of his books, Haunted, had extreme subject matter and yet he kept it really simple and really enjoyable. I couldn't believe I finished that book in one...

thepipes For me the problem wasn't really that it wasn't cohesive, I just thought it was kind of dumb. It has been so long since I read it I don't remember which of the stories I really liked I just remember that there were a few I enjoyed!

Are there any good places to sell handmade miniatures online? Like a consignment website or something?

thepipes I wouldn't worry about that on etsy. I have seen many handmade items on there that are higher priced, but fair when you look at the work that goes into them and they still seem to do well. Good luck with wherever you decide to set up shop!

American Slang

crazy_andy @crazy_andy (258) • China 25 Jun 08

thepipes I think that there is a problem because America is so big and all the different regions can have their own slang! I know there are a lot of things they say on the east coast that we don't say on the west coast.

nova1945 @nova1945 (1612) • United States 18 Apr 08

A round watermelon can take up a lot of room in the refrigerator and the usually round fruit often sits awkwardly on the refrigerator shelves. Fortunately smart Japanese farmers have forced their watermelons to grow into a square...

jillhill @jillhill (37354) • United States 12 Jun 08

While on vacation I found these cute little cover ups to make for large packs of gum and mints...I made a few to put in my booth this weekend at my craft sale. Might draw a few new customers into the booth!

beautyqueen26 @beautyqueen26 (16030) • United States 31 May 08

Not sure why, but my cats have fleas. It's getting near summer, so I know it will only get worse. They didn't have fleas last year. I don't know why we'd have fleas, cause we don't have carpet, just stone tile floors. Perhaps, the...
