what is the evolutionary reason for the coloration of appaloosas?

i'm not questioning your honor, lord slynt. i'm denying its existence.


mmmmmmmmmm robb stark. mmmmmmmmmm tyrion lannister.


it just occurred to me that that night i punched my old boss i was wearing a hoodie that said "peace" and "love" on the back.


nana says gram's been acting even more and more funny.
"they're all dead," said gram one day, out of nowhere, smiling.
"who?" said nana.
"everyone's dead but me," said gram.



then one day out of nowhere gram said,
"that's not right, her saying that. that lady saying those things, it's not right."
"who?" said nana. "saying what things?"
"well, you should know, maryann!" said gram, sounding fed up and frustrated. "you were there with me for the monologue!" nana still has no clue what she's referring to.



she's also said gram's been seeing and hearing things that aren't there. there's some guy always watching her from her old bedroom. nana has to just make sure she always keeps the door to her bedroom shut and then gram doesn't think about it. i dunno if she stops thinking there's a guy in there or she just forgets that she thought he was there or she just doesn't want to have to look at him. she also thinks people are watching her change and use the bathroom. she thinks they're watching her from her skylight. she's seen sneakers hanging from the ceiling. she's said, pointing to pop-pop, 
"who's that lady?" she's said, when there's no one home but her and nana,
"who are all these people here?" she's said, 
"whose dog is that that's barking?" when there was no dog anywhere. she's shouted out,
"teacher! teacher!" raising her hand.
"does she mean us?" nana said to pop-pop.
"i don't know anymore," said pop-pop. she also supposedly calls out her dead brothers' names, and that's not even talking about any of the things she yells out in her sleep.



the boys seem to be having trouble understanding the concept of "privacy" and when people are supposed to need it or want it. they insist on having "privacy" to take their clothes off in the bathroom/laundry room and then proceed to stroll out of the room naked. one of them has even requested "privacy" just to take off his coat once.



the human brain isn't done developing until age 24.



i get the feeling that song "if i die young" wouldnt be as popular as it is if we weren't in a recession. maybe "S & M" wouldn't be either.



i'd like to take this moment to hereby recognize that i'm continuously blown away by the breathtaking incendiary extraordinary seemingly neverending talent of rihanna.



the boys were walking through franklin mills mall with mom where there was 90% black people and ben kept saying over and over every few minutes, as he pointed at various people, "i think i see barack obama!"
