Bad songs to have stuck in my head at work:

"... and I really got hot when I saw Janette Scott fight a Triffid that spits poison and kills..."

Student's t-test - Wikipedia

That's like having a basic Statistics thing being called the "Student's t-test". Is it because it's used in schools by students? Nope, it's because the person 'who first published it in English [... used] the pseudonym "Student".

Oh that game kidnapped me for like a month at one point in my life. Somehow dismantling live nuclear reactor cores is very relaxing to me.

In one fell swoop, they destroyed access to health care, shut down hospitals, upended clean energy, massively expanded their secret police force & took food away from kids.

All to cut taxes for the rich & corporations.

It’s one of the biggest betrayals of Americans in the history of our country.

This happened to me late last year. Person's crowing about rolling a 97 on the minion. Me, smug and silent with my 98. THEN OUTTA NOWHERE WITH THE STEEL CHAIR -

I feel like they would once have been, but about when I turned 40 my spice tolerance dropped off a cliff.

I tried those and I feel wimpy because they are too spice for me.

(Marilyn was found in the nude.)

(She didn't marry Henry Miller.)

Every so often I get the urge to make a sign that says "Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these My brethren, ye have done it unto Me."

A comic picturing someone in a straitjacket and strapped to a backboard, escorted by the Pope and heavily-armored soldiers. 

The caption reads: "The Anti-Christ arrived and nearly ended everything in 1999 before being imprisoned by the Vatican. The Pope thought this would avert the apocalypse. He was wrong. It just slowed the process down. Get ready to watch the world crumble in slow-motion."

How is it this has spent the last 25 years getting MORE relevant?
