Why did Oliver decide to be a lover, not a fighter?

Because he hated pretending.

Why did Harry Potter's wand get promoted?

Between this and lack of thin mints, you must’ve done something to offend the treat gods.

A partially consumed Trader Joe's Toasted Coconut Mini Sheet Cake. Partially consumed because while it is not good, it's still cake.

A partially consumed Trader Joe's Toasted Coconut Mini Sheet Cake. Partially consumed because while it is not good, it's still cake.

I regret to inform you this is not good. The cake is dense and gummy, and so is the frosting. I believe a coconut cake should be light and fluffy and so should the frosting. Even if you think cream cheese frosting belongs on a coconut cake, I think we can agree that cake should not be gummy.

What do you do with a girl like Maria?

You make sure she can’t bother you online.

"alee" is a word that people get enraged about. For years now, to no avail.

Do you think the editor must be deaf?

Or just totally not caring about how people who spend their time playing this game feel?

Or preferring to increase "reader engagement" for their metrics?

The braided chocolate pastry and another nemesis of mine were both visible today. Now they’re sitting at bee-roots.com, trying to think of new ways to hide. #hivemind #nytspellingbee
