We hope this post about orphaned negatives makes you gruntled.

An ‘orphaned negative’ is a word that SHOULD feel like it has a related word, but doesn’t.

‘Nonchalant’ is an orphaned negative because there is no ‘chalant.’

Tonight is the 251st anniversary of Paul Revere’s midnight ride.

If he were to make the same journey from Boston to Lexington today, he could stop at 7 Dunkin locations. (via Reddit)

@katefeetie No kid can make fun of him. What would they say?

"Hey Elmer, pass the glue!"
"Hey Elmer, is it wabbit season or duck season?"
"Hey Elmer, put on that helmet with horns and sing us an opera!"

He'll always have "Can't you think up something original?" as a comeback.

Today is the International Day of Forests https://t.co/Hcm8IFOCTy. Forests provide us homes, food, fuels, oxygen, pharmaceuticals, clean water, wild places, peace and quiet, and scientific puzzles that we're still figuring out. Go hug a tree and say thanks.

If you haven’t seen this bit from Saturday Night Live from last night yet, you absolutely have to. It’s hilarious and at the same time extremely therapeutic. Even if it’s not real. “DO YOU WANT THIS TO BE REAL?”
