James বলেছেন...: Depending on the blueberry and the beer, some blueberries sink in beer, and some float. But every now and then, you get a cool "lava lamp" effect where the blueberries are constantly sinking to the bottom and then floating back to the top of their own volition. It's strangely mesmerizing, especially if you're a few beers in.; ১১/৯/২৩, ৮:১৬ AM
planetgeo বলেছেন...: They aren't ads themselves but are "clickbait articles". Once you click on the article you are dragged through a series of ads every couple of sentences. Google notes which ones you slow down or stop to look at more closely and then puts more of these in front of you when you do your normal browsing later. Some of these articles extend the article and delay the punchline for dozens of pages. How do I know? Hahaha...; ১১/৯/২৩, ৮:২৩ AM

robother বলেছেন...: Based on my travels last year through Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, Virginia, and West Virginia I would say that the pleas of American heart surgeons have fallen on deaf ears.; ১১/৯/২৩, ৮:৪৯ AM

Mrs. X বলেছেন...: Love this! Coincidentally, I heard Chast speak at a book signing Saturday. She’s very funny and seems most concerned with conveying her sense of humor to the world at large. I’m always waiting for any public event to devolve into politics. This one didn’t. What a pleasure!; ১১/৯/২৩, ৯:২২ AM

I'll never stop. I know it's wrong. I don't care.; ১১/৯/২৩, ৯:৩৩ AM
Narr বলেছেন...: So I can still put them up my nose?; ১১/৯/২৩, ৯:৩৯ AM
Original Mike বলেছেন...: Has anyone ever followed one of these to the end? Is there an end? Do they ever tell you what not to do to your blueberries?; ১১/৯/২৩, ৯:৪৯ AM

rehajm বলেছেন...: Does the cease and desist also apply to blue berries or is it just blueberries?; ১১/৯/২৩, ১০:৫২ AM
Joe Smith বলেছেন...: It's OK to do certain things, if you know these weird tricks.

And you won't believe number seven...; ১১/৯/২৩, ১১:৩৪ AM

The blueberry was asking for it, your honor. You should have seen the way it was dressed and how it looked at me..; ১১/৯/২৩, ১১:৩৫ AM
MB বলেছেন...: Don't wash them in advance. Just wash the amount you plan on eating, right before you eat them.

I do usually wash mine all at once. I'm too lazy to get the colander out each time. Sometimes I'll add a spoonful of vinegar into the water to keep down mold growth.; ১১/৯/২৩, ১১:৩৮ AM
Brylinski বলেছেন...: So I went to my primary care physician for a checkup several months ago, and our discussion found its way to his growing medical practice. As he is almost my age I suggested he hire another physician to reduce his workload. He responded that he did hire another physician, a female, and after 3 months on the job she announced that she was pregnant and that she would take at least a 6 month maternity leave. So much for reducing his workload…; ১১/৯/২৩, ১২:৫৭ PM

The blueberry is the shameless hussy of the berry world. We don't talk about it, but all know it.; ১১/৯/২৩, ৪:৩৯ PM
