About this site
This site is a little project that lets me make fun of some things and sense of others. I use it to think a little more relationally without resorting to doing actual math.

Clothesline? Your dating yourself. It that really your picture I saw?
November 4th, 2008 at 2:49 pm
@Mike
Actually it doesn’t date her at all. Just because she knows what a clothesline is doesn’t make her a little old lady.
November 4th, 2008 at 3:13 pm
I use a clothesline, and I’m only 19. Lots of people around here do. Maybe it’s a regional thing.
November 4th, 2008 at 4:07 pm
ROFL! This is my favorite so far (though I prefer to think of the left-hand portion of the graph).
November 4th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
A bylaw banning clotheslines around here has only recently been struck down. Given the state of the environment these days, it only makes sense to use a clothesline, at least part of the year.
November 4th, 2008 at 6:47 pm
More telling about age than her reference to a clothesline is her use of the word “drawers.”
November 4th, 2008 at 7:19 pm
OK, now the election is behind us and it is November so you can concentrate on getting the INDEXED calendar ready now!
November 4th, 2008 at 8:12 pm
Reminds me of Anne Lamott, writing about finding an old pair of her undies after she had put on some weight. She was like: “Are those the kitty’s underwear? Who fit in those?”
I use a clothesline but hang my “delicates” inside. No pointing and laughing allowed!

Clotheslines save on energy! dryers are totally inefficient.
November 5th, 2008 at 2:18 am
clothes’ll dry even in winter! takes a little longer, but so long as you plan for that…
fellow collegiates, a clothes line will also save you money, and hanging clothes make your room smell amazing!
November 5th, 2008 at 2:28 am
“Clothesline? Your dating yourself. It that really your picture I saw?”
The typo monster hit. IS that!!!
And collegiates, make sure you’ve take a class on mold mitigation.

Nice Job .

I think that Jessica under estimates the number of kids who wear pants that fit. I think this new data is just as revealing as the data collected at the left and right ends of the graph.

It figures that the day I cyber-tag, you’re writing about underpants:
http://luannudell.wordpress.com/2008/11/05/ive-been-tagged/
Oh well. I still love your stuff!
November 5th, 2008 at 11:28 am
clotheslines will always remind me of ma grams.

(Clothesline or “line of brand name clothes”)
My second version of this cartoon…

Maybe that’s the other way around. I stayed up so late last night! forgive me
November 6th, 2008 at 7:23 am
So, you know, I was so tired yesterday (from staying up late) that I read the graph above and thought it read “size of _pants_”. In my mind that worked. So here is an /alternate/ version of this cartoon, the way I saw it yesterday.

I’ve stopped and stared at some particularly large underpants, and find it hard to look away
November 7th, 2008 at 4:14 pm
I’m only 20 and I’m familiar with clotheslines. In fact, we’ve only stopped using ours in the past few years.

modestly redistributing income? how does this happen?
i remember how pissed i got in school…when i worked hard to earn an A…and then the teacher did the bell curve and raised everyone grades because everyone else scored low…modestly redistributing income? how does this happen?
November 10th, 2008 at 6:34 am
well naturally it’s reverse standard deviation…
December 5th, 2008 at 9:39 pm
If not a clothesline, what then?
Is this some kind of American thing?
January 1st, 2009 at 11:22 pm
I’m 17 and just don’t get how referencing clotheslines makes you old. Where I live (Canberra, Australia), everybody uses clotheslines; if you don’t you’re probably the sort of creepy posh person who lives in a concrete box, has vases full of twigs and irons their sheets.
