I've only got what you've said here, so maybe there's another side where she's studying her butt off and keeping the house clean and you were throwing clothes and dishes everywhere like confetti, but a 6-hour argument? I

The author makes it clear that these things were communicated to him. No one needed to read anyone's mind. He just felt like it wasn't a big deal, so he chose not to change his habits.

I think you've got it backwards. Whether the glass ended up in the dishwasher or not didn't matter much to him. It mattered a lot to her and instead of putting in the bit of effort, he tried to justify to himself why he shouldn&

The stomping noises upstairs in my old apartment were from cars? And cars pumped Tejano music through my vents? (Didn't actually mind that one. They were very loud, but during reasonable-ish hours) I guess what I thought was a screami

The article is pretty good. I feel like they danced around the issue that it's noise while you're trying to sleep that seems to do most of the damage. Also, just wanted to point out this gem: "Children in loud, loud places l

I would happily live in a 150 sq ft shed if it kept me out of the city and the "fun". It's not that I'm not willing to make do with a small space, it's that I don't want to be tripping over my neighborsband de

Not related to the article, but thanks for connecting some dots for me. My first smartphone was a Casio G'zOne and people still don't believe me sometimes when I say I had a Casio phone. It was basically the only rugged smartpho

What bothers me more is when someone generalize about a large country with a lot of different regional styles. I've been told stacked enchiladas aren't authentic or traditional, when as far as I can work out, they're just ki

I wouldn't say corn tortillas have a particularly short shelf life. Or that they're all that hard to reheat. If you're getting fresh ones straight from the tortilliera, they're not going to last long on the counter, but

I wouldn't call it bureaucratic stupidity to decide to ban a class of substances as we continue to find out how much more harmful they are than previously thought.

Fuel has gone up in price this year as well. If the pay per mile isn't matching the increase, that makes a big difference. Even before fuel shot up, the price of basic needs was increasing at a good clip, making it harder to make end

How do you explain the fact that penguins, turkeys, and loons do not have penises even though they all fit your requirements for birds that should have them?

Minecraft had ducks. Or they were chickens. I remember it being a whole thing, but people called them ducks often enough that I think it should count. As far as ducks being eaten, I've only had duck meat a couple of times, but I

Yes. Waterfowl have hollow bones. They may be denser than a hummingbird's, but that does not mean they are solid. Raptors have a slower heartbeat than hummingbirds. That is true. What does that have to do with any of this?

Both. I've got a biology background and have education in ornithology and ecology. I've spent time in the field with a number of species of birds. It's been a while since I've worked with birds, but I've got a so

Your first sentence makes no sense, but it did give me enough keywords to find an actual explanation of the process, so that does clear it up. I'm aware that the rest of this is automated. I guess I just haven't kept up to date w

Which technique gives you the sex of an egg after 3 days of incubation? I'm reading on this and I'm seeing methods that get down to a week. It's testing for hormones as well and unless you consider being able to read a test

Waterfowl do fly from water source to water source. Also, they migrate. Also, their bones are hollow. I still don't see how penises have anything to do with being flightless. You've decided that since tinamous are fairly terrest

Can birds tell a male just-hatched chick from a female? I don't know that I've heard of that in any bird. I guess I don't even know how you could test for that. I can ID a typical mature rooster from across the yard. It&#x

I mean, you kind of have to squeeze them a little to see the genitalia. I guess you could have a human hold the bird over the camera or something to sex it, but it's just as easy to teach that human to tell the difference themselves.

I'm a little confused about your statement that waterfowl don't fly. As far a why a Cornell scientist didn't know about bird penises, it's because the vast majority of bird species don't have them. If she didn'

They are definitely an indication of where we're headed if it's been a trend. Is this the first dry March in a while or the dryest March in a series of gradual dryer ones over the poster's lifetime?
