"Human Beings", like the Greendale mascot.

Sure. But perhaps not giving it any value could also be a strong point. The fact that it was so senseless made it all the more painful, to me. I honestly hurt more for that death than any other in the books.

To me it just felt like the unfairness of real life. Sometimes people get a shit hand of cards at life, and their death is just quiet and pointless and has no sense or reason to it.

I have no idea who that guy is but he looks genuinely happy and I only wish I had the same sparkle in my eyes. I wish him all the best loving being who he is. Thank god there are happy weird people sharing joy in the world!

Sirius Black in Harry Potter. I had to go back and reread the paragraph several times, then put the book down. Seemed just so unfair.

Yep, these are the Dutch /Flemish names but Wallonia (south Belgium) has the same in French : Saint Nicolas, who brings gifts to kids on Dec 6, and Père Noël at Christmas (but he isn't as present, and christmas tends to be the family gathering meal and gifts exchange between humans, rather than from the magic winter dude.

"But in that kind of world, this type of murderer wouldn't exist in the first place."

Yes, thank you for saying this.

I remember our biology prof showing us a chart relating relative penis size in apes, to, I think it was monogamy (or maybe peacefulness) ? There was an inverse correlation. Humans have relatively big dicks compared to other apes, which would seem to indicate humans aren't a traditionally monogamous species.

Take this with a major grain of salt, that class was 20+ years ago.

I love how you got both answers, so we're still none the wiser. :D

My husband loves iPhones and all things Apple. He's adorable. Every update he's like, "Look at this new great things we can do!". Confused me: "that's been an option on android for like, 10 years..."

I know that's probably not what was meant, but I'm reading "seals" as the animals, and the image is glorious.

I don't recognize the flag of that one country inching right while all the others are moving left. What is it?
