No Effects of Gluten in Patients with... →
perardi:
In a placebo-controlled, crossover re-challenge study, we found no evidence of specific or dose-dependent effects of gluten in patients with NCGS placed diets low in FODMAPs.
Or, people with ill-defined “tummy troubles” didn’t get any better when they took away gluten. It’s almost like people are gullible hypochondriacs who now believe we’ve developed a civilization-wide...
If bananas are proof that a god designed the universe, then those stringy things are proof that he’s a little bit fucking with us.

Wait, No.: Please just stop pirating Photoshop. →
perardi:
Now that Adobe is moving to a subscription-only model, it’s probably going to be a lot more annoying to pirate Photoshop. (Maybe. Unless someone reverse-engineers their authentication call and response, then creates a proxy server to intercept the periodic auth check-ins.) Anyway, now is a good…

2013 Honda Fit EV Review →
perardi:
For a price that’s more than double the cost of a conventional Fit Sport, you get a car with less than one-quarter the cruising range, a third less cargo space with the rear seats up, nine percent longer stopping distances, mushier steering, and marginally less grip.
Every electric car review ever.
I know, as an urban young professional, I should love the promise and...

Amy: I'll be helping children. They're the worst.
Ben: But you're helping them to become not children. It's very important that children learn to be not children as effectively as possible.

If you ask me, women are most beautiful when they adhere to rules I just made up and reserve the right to change at any time.
Doesn’t that make you feel better, ladies?

Am I the only white person who has never felt the sudden urge to touch a black person’s hair?
I haven’t felt the urge, but I went to a camp once where the speaker had us all touch his hair because he wanted black people to stop seeming so unfamiliar to us suburban/rural white kids. But also if I’m friends with you I’ll probably randomly touch your head at some...

I want to type Margery, Peter and Steve. Not Margaery, Petyr and a Styyvvhe.

You were able to tell that Margaery was playing Joffrey like a two-dollar fiddle, but you think she just wants to be besties with Sansa? Do you try to set up your best friend with your gay brother?
