    Speaking of esophageal cancer and alcohol, here's some delightful news. Know those Asian people who get that red glow from alcohol?

    They are essentially giving themselves esophageal cancer while they're red. Acetaldehyde is a potent vasodilator (hence the flushing / red glow) and also a carcinogen.

    The more you know.

    There isn't anything wrong with them. I just don't want to bang a guy who's the same age or older than my father.

    From what I heard Stewart is around 5'4". When he stands next to Conan O'Brien (6'5") it's priceless looking.

    Ghetto, you're not going to bring up talk like that at the Meet-Up, are you? Otherwise I might have to find the highest point of the bar and leap head first onto the sidewalk.

    And then everything would go blissfully dark.

    HA! I'm lit right now.

    Yeah, I think he's 5'4.

    In other news, I am incredibly skilled at pausing any video so that it looks like the person on screen has an O face on. Every time.

    If we're voting on Comedy Central reporters, my vote goes for Stephen Colbert. He's funnier than Stewart, IMO, and - this is probably why I like him more - absolutely shreds people during his interviews.

    That's a rare trait and one that is incredibly attractive: the ability to debate without backing down, losing your temper or getting smarmy. One of the reasons Hitchens does nothing for me is that insufferable attitude of his always puts me off.

    Oh, and I almost forgot. Colbert has great hands. My personal deal breaker.

    Colbert is hilarious, but I still like Stewart more. Colbert's shtick can sometimes be tiring, and I actually find his interviews the most annoying part of the show, partially because of the having-to-carry-through-with-the-shtick part and partially because he rarely lets them say anything. Stewart can totally cut his interviewees down and argue really well, and I think he does so better than Colbert.

    This was one of the funnier moments on television ever:

    I had just typed up a post defending my increasing normalness and ability to lock down that side of me, but I ended up using a calculus expression. I'm just going to go hide in a corner and slit my wrists now.

    Hypothetical Situation

    Your significant other tells you they're out at a bar with friends and leaving for home in 10 minutes. 2 hours and several unanswered phone calls later, they still haven't arrived. A short time later, they answer the phone drunk, saying they got held up and simply forgot to call and let you know they wouldn't be back for a while.

    What is a normal reaction to such an occurrence?

    Hypothetically, let's call it a three-year relationship, half of which was spent in cohabitation.

    Let it go for tonight, arguing with a drunk person is hardly worth it and you will probably be more rational when you aren't still pissed and arguing with a drunk person. Tomorrow, let her know that she should have handled the situation differently. Since she said that she was coming home in 10 minutes, it set the expectation that she would be home soon. If she said that she was having a great time, you wouldn't have expected her home and wouldn't have worried when you couldn't reach her. If plans change, tell her to call you and let you know so you won't expect you home and worry. If it was me, I would understand and that would be the end of it. Of course all of this is based on your past history, relationship, etc.

    Let them sleep it off until the morning. When they wake up, tell them that it's not fair for you when they tell you they'll be home and don't show up, as you were worried (if in fact you were). Also, ask them what held them up so long. Be stern, don't get angry. Having anger in that kind of situation, especially if the reasoning is legitimate, will make you look insecure and controlling. If her answer starts with, "Well me and this guy..." then rightfully be angered.

    Eh, let it go. Fight over something serious like her driving drunk or cheating on you. So she stayed out instead of keeping you informed. What's the fucking outcome? You chew her out and it becomes "you never let me go out with my friends" even if you do, or "stop smothering me" even if you don't. Let it go. Even if you win you lose.

    I usually expect drunk people to have no conception or regard for time anyway. If she made me late for a dinner reservation, then I'd be pissed.

    Normal reaction: A small dash of suspicion, some annoyance, but it pretty much sounds like she was having a fun drunk time with her friends and lost track of time/wasn't paying attention to her phone, which probably couldn't be heard over the music or felt in her bag.
