Infographic of the Day: No surprises here — a February 29 birthday is hard to come by, while the summer months trend reflects the traditional spike in holiday hookups.
[explore]
The biggest streak of common birthdays is the last week of September/first week of October, which just happens to be exactly nine months after New Year’s Eve. I think there may be a coincidence. Remember this next time you’re celebrating your friend’s birthday on October 3rd.
[Edit] Also worth noting are the “holiday gaps” that occur at Christmas (notice the jump in births from the 26th to the 27th), Thanksgiving Week, Halloween, and even the Fourth of July. Can women subconsciously suppress a birth (“I can’t go into labor now I’ve got family coming over!”), or do even fetuses take time off for the holidays?](http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_m44k8pZUwL1qzpwi0o1_500.jpg)

This bank is like the world’s worst-behaved teenager, taking your car and running over kittens and fire hydrants on the way to Vegas for the weekend, maxing out your credit cards in the three days you spend at your aunt’s funeral. They’re out of control, yet they’ll never do time or go out of business, because the government remains creepily committed to their survival, like overindulgent parents who refuse to believe their 40-year-old live-at-home son could possibly be responsible for those dead hookers in the backyard.

sashu replied to your post: Lands End 40% off only applies to orders over $50, then the most expensive item is 40% off and shipping is free. Otherwise the discount won’t work, tried it yesterday.
$50+ is free shipping, but I was getting discounts with $20 items. I dunno, man…You’re right. 40% off any item, free shipping on orders over $50.
Weird, tried it yesterday on a shirt and it said it couldn’t work unless I had over $50. I’ll have to try it again.
Reblogging because it never occurred to me until that moment that I had gone 7 seasons without known Mac’s full name. Minds were blown that day.

Just ordered this amazing handmade silver tie bar from ExclusiefByVera on Etsy. She uses recycled vintage silver, and adds beautiful hand engraving. She only has a few tie bars on her store—she makes mostly rings and other jewelry—but this bar is definitely the best in my opinion. Can’t wait for it to arrive.
Just got off the phone ordering this awesome belt from Narragansett Leathers up in Maine. It hooks together with a hoof pick, something riders carry to pick stones out of a horse’s shoe, which I thought was awesome. I got the brown, but a bit darker than above, with the brass hook. I can’t wait to get it. Orders are running about two weeks right now, just in time for Christmas!
I saw the young man over there with eggs Benedict,
With hollandaise sauce.
And I was going to suggest to you that you serve your eggs—
With hollandaise sauce in hubcaps.
Because there’s no plates like chrome—
For the hollandaise.

RELEVANT TO FSU RIGHT NOW.
Relevant to any time anyone props up the Bible — particularly Exodus — as an excuse for hate and ignorance.

About me
I believe sufficient knowledge of the past is all that is needed to predict the future. I like dinosaurs, Italian food, and things that are really old (other than dinosaurs).
