Throwing stones from a glass house

·

It looks like OKCupid's Sam Yagan was trying to capitalize on a movement without doing any real work. Turnaround is fair play, but hypocrisy never looks good on anyone.

Adultery? Sure. Abuse of power? No thanks.

Letter: Wisconsin's abortion ultrasounds

A new, better dictionary

·

With the inclusion of a phrase like “dad dancing,” a lot more slang should be added. Here are my revisions for the next edition of the dictionary.

A true map quest

·

At the beginning of each of the five rounds in a game, you are dropped into a random Google street view somewhere in the world. Then you have to guess where you are by dropping a pin on a political map of the globe.

Happy Father's Day, Mom
