Episode 523: Dad's Fat Trash Sack

Outline
00:45 - How I heard it is that Ray Bradbury actually asked his local fire department what temperature books burned at, and they went and lit a book on fire and measured the temperature while they were still on the phone with him and reported back that the temperature was Fahrenheit 451. No idea if that's true or not. - Rose

07:25 - I was on the way out the door to walk our dog Cooper, when I realized I was without a plastic bag for his poop. My wife ran to our kitchen for me and pulled one from the recycling before sending me on my way. I'm now blocks from the house, he's pooping, and I realized she handed me a dramatically oversized baggy (the ones from Goodwill that fit coats and bedding and stuff). It seems wasteful to use such an enormous amount of plastic for a single doody. What do I do? Do I pick up after him in this ludicrously big bag, or do I search for a plan B? - Superfluously Sized Shitbag in Greensboro

The problem with this is that I use Lyft. My boyfriend and I have been dating for over 4 years, and I consider myself to be close with parts of his family, just not his dad. He's really nice-seeming, we just haven't had many chances to interact. If I were to call a Lyft and his dad was the driver, would I have to sit in the front and try to make small talk with him, or would it be okay for me to sit quietly in the back like I normally would?

Regular plungers consist of an elastic suction cup and a wooden handle rod that is attached to it. The wooden handle rod is intended to be held and used by the plunger operator, to forcefully compress and decompress the suction cup and its contents, by pushing and pulling. Another commonality among many regular plungers is that the wooden rod is rather short, forcing your wrists and forearms to be rather close to the suction cup - and what's below it. So I ask, why are the wooden rods as short as they usually are? Shouldn't they be longer to allow for the same action at greater distance to the whirling toilet water and whatever happens to be part of said whirling waters?"
