"All the better to eat you with, my dear.”
I huffed and I puffed,
And the house blew apart,
I’m leaving for now,
But you’re all in my heart.

@unklethan Did you really just come back to a post three months later to close out a joke? Shouldn’t you be busy getting your ‘I told you I’ve done that before’ memes ready for 2019? (And yes, the sink is still outside. I forgot.)

Not until the driver falls out of the cab drunk, picks a fight, then makes best friends with the poor soul he just beat up over a pint of Gat.

I think the problem is that people ‘know’ that unpaid internships are morally wrong but they don’t know that they’re likely illegal in many circumstances. Unpaid interns have rights that they’re unaware of and get taken advantage of as a result. I would look at it more like you being an ignorant immigrant and I tell you ‘in order for you to get a job and live in a home, you’re going to have to give me your stuff so just sign here saying you agree, I’ll take your nicest things, and soon you’ll be able to have a nice job and your own flat.’ I just stole all of your stuff. I knew it was wrong. But you didn’t know the law. And now I get the best of what you have while you’re left with nothing to show for it. I want the people working unpaid internships to know their protections because of this.

Yup, was aware. Now I see cross character mashups don’t make sense, though. Hmm, good question. I think I’d pick lotion dude because at least I’d have silky smooth skin before I perished.

She’s right. There’s a really good ‘Adam Ruins Everything’ that can explain the laws better than I can. But if you’re from the US, chances are your unpaid internship is illegal and they’re stealing your time and talent for free. There are six criteria that companies have to meet for an unpaid internship to be legal but most violate a few - usually training must be similar to an educational environment (like a classroom or a true job shadow where you watch but don’t really work), the (unpaid) intern can’t displace other (paid) workers, and the employer can’t derive immediate benefit (like getting a free coffee and lunch fetcher who learns nothing about the business or the role they’re interning for). This isn’t happening with every unpaid internship. But according to US Department of Labor standards, there’s a real possibility that you should be getting paid if you’re interning for free: (https://smallbusiness.findlaw.com/employment-law-and-human-resources/unpaid-internship-rules.html)

Okay, Hannibal. Tell her it rubs the lotion on its skin and have a steak and cunnilingus like the normal people do.

Putting the two articles together, I think the less attractive women are competing against the ‘grass is greener’ syndrome in men. A more attractive man who valúes beauty might be more likely to cheat with a better looking woman and the less attractive women compete against an ‘imagined mistress’ to keep their mate. I’m not a behavioral scientist but that’s my guess. Food for thought. Thanks for passing that on.

Huh. Interesting. I’d never heard that before and my first thought was women being the more attractive partner - if he’s wealthy. Found an article that might be about the study you mentioned: ‘The husband who's less physically attractive than his wife is getting something more than maybe he can expect to get... He's getting something better than he's providing at that level. So he's going to work hard to maintain that relationship. Physical attractiveness of husbands is not as important to women... Rather, wives are looking for supportive husbands.’ (https://www.livescience.com/7483-beautiful-women-marry-attractive-men.html)

A body wash called Armpits and Crotch would probably be more fitting but I suspect it wouldn’t test well with consumers.

Good lord. Until it moved, I thought that thing was the feline Ghost of Christmas Yet-to-Come there to warn Ebenezer Scrooge that he’d die alone if he didn’t change his miserly ways.

Random philosophical question that I’m sure has been answered before but - if you read the entire story of your life, would it be the same story if you read it a second time? You’ll now have foreknowledge of upcoming events and certain actions might change the story that you just read. Would the story change to include you reading the story?

Amen, sister. Especially the lower left panel. You eat a lot of humble pie. Learning sayings to sound like a native is one of the harder parts, too, because the literal translation from/to another language usually just sounds bizarre. (Like ‘a gifted horse don’t look at the tooth’ translated from Spanish - you know what it means but saying it that way just feels weird). So please be patient when others are learning your language. People really want to do a good job and talk to you even if we sound like drunk toddlers while doing it.
