That bit of the napkin has a smudge.

How big was the pile of treats required to get all those dogs in one place and stay still and smile long enough to take a photo?

Naked croissant should be flagged NSFW.

"Heeeeeee-ya!"

Heat level: "fire-extinguisher hot".

Good for you. Managers that protect their people and their people's time are worth their weight in gold.

Then you are the "lesser being"!

So even though Santa doesn't live at OUR north pole...

Wait, what?!

Out of real witches???

It's fascinating how the new world now desires to be just like the old.

The separation of church and state protects the church from the state at least as much as the state from the church. Christians should fear a "Christian" state.

What's the long answer?

Don't pick it up if you're only down a few HP: save it for later when you can use the full ability.

I expect I'm coming from a different moral framework than yours, and I don't expect to be able to change your mind, but do allow me to suggest that while a divorce might not be the worst thing in the world, it's also not a good thing. So far as it's up to you, be a man (person?) of your word if you promise to love until death do you part, or don't promise in the first place.

I wish you all the best.

(Great writing for a rant that you didn't proof-read. I especially like the LaTeX-like emdashes.)

No-one should tell you what to do. You need to decide yourself what you want, and then stick to it. I have no idea how you'll do four years long distance when you're already having trouble after one. But if you decide she's The One for you and she feels the same about you, then stay the course and maybe attempt to make your relationship more permanent (marriage) which might solve some of the problems (or make them worse if you're not both committed to it). If she's not The One then better to split earlier than later, IMO --- you're not married so go your separate ways. It's great that you care about her and are worried about how she will fare without you, but if you're not both committed to the relationship then you can't make it work and she will have to fend for herself.

You can find instructions online for stretches and exercises, but that doesn't hold my interest. I bit the bullet and joined a gym, going a couple of times a week to keep loose. Maybe I could do the stuff I do there at home (after purchasing some equipment), but I think the environment is worth the expense. I don't talk to anyone else except to greet the staff, but I like the fact that other people are around and it's a space dedicated to working out.

How do you know that the plane that just landed is from England? Even when the engines have been shut down, you can still hear the whining.

Those spikes keep dragons from perching on the tower. Simple, but incredibly effective!

We've seen this movie, haven't we?

Nature has always been about making money, not about publishing research.
