A: If you're probably not complaining about the humidity too, you're not doing it right

Why do people keep returning to the refrigerator in the hope that something new will have materialized?

Why do Kamikaze pilots wear helmets?
A. To keep their hair perfect, silly.

window?

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
