On Elderly Dogs and Babies: A Primer
Apparently, my parent's dog loved me when I was born and used to sniff my head. She was highly suspicious of my brother when he came around, though.

Do you wear your national colors and stand outside drinking and listening to techno music/feestmuziek? (Because it was just Queen's Day here and now I feel that all holidays should be celebrated this way.)

@TheBourneApproximation I love Hitler, and Hitler loves me!

On Ask a Clean Person: Laundry School — Lint and Static and Ironing, Oh My!
@falconet I am not much of an ironer, I expect because I came from a family of non-ironers. (True story: in high school, I had a pianist friend who lived in a suburb somewhat far away from our high school. Once, he had a recital in the evening and wanted to iron his shirt. I live a lot closer to the school, so he asked if he could come over and iron his shirt. My mom had no idea how to either use the iron or where the ironing board was. My friend figured them both out, but it pretty much summarizes how we feel about ironing.)

I can only think of this. Especially the end, where you turn into a superhero! Effectively.

On Beauty Q&A: ID Photos, Gaudy Shoes, and Looking 10 Years Younger
@je suis un ananas I was buying a bunch of beer in preparation for Queen's Day a few weeks ago, and I got carded. I have just turned 27 and you have to be 16 to buy beer here. It's sort of ridiculous.
Maybe it's the curly hair? (That or my face's tendency to keep one or two zits going.)

On Beauty Q&A: ID Photos, Gaudy Shoes, and Looking 10 Years Younger
@Tuna Surprise My passport photo is still (hey, those things last ten years!) from my goth phase in my sophomore year of college. My hair is bright red, my lips are dark red with black liner, and my eyebrows are drawn in.
Now, none of that is true, but somehow I haven't had any problems. I guess because I'm still wearing glasses? (But they're totally different glasses.)

On This is a Safe Space to Talk About Your Dissertation
I am working on my master's thesis right now and I hate it and myself. Just sent the first half of the first chapter to my advisor. I think the stress stomachaches/heartburn that I had when I was working are back.

On The League of Ordinary Ladies: Short Dates
@frigwiggin My uncle used to always leave a fake name at restaurants, but like, a really obvious fake name. He liked "Captain Nemo." So, you know, that's fun too.
