It was always a bit of a tense moment for Jacques, but it just was by far the best hot chocolate you could find.

I strenuously object to the implicit assertion that people don't want to hear about other people's holidays. I do! In Iran they have an outdoor picnic day (Sizdah Bedar). In Japan there's a bean-throwing day (Setsubun). There's a whole world of fascinating rituals and traditions.

My KPop Demon Hunters/Calvin & Hobbes mashup is now available on shirts and sweatshirts for both kids and adults! These have been very popular gifts so get it now to avoid the holiday rush.

Keep your conscience Golden this winter by supporting indie artists!

Is this cheese grater conscious? Many users feel they're talking to a real person. Scientists say it's time to consider whether they're onto something.

I gave my mom what I thought was a soup-themed bath bomb some years back, but it was actually soup. She had to call my dad in to get her out of the greasy tub.

I got so stoned at a Mets game once I compared the Jumbotron to the top screen of a Nintendo DS bc it had “a bunch of useful contextual information” and the field to the bottom screen bc “it’s where the game is actually played”
