It's as though when you order a sirloin steak, it comes with a side of maggots."

The toenails are the worst part.  @CantCookStillTry, I think you should make one of these for your hubby to take back to the mine! Something different for the corners of his pictures. 😁

John Hodgman is one of my favorite humorists. He currently writes a brief, weekly, off-kilter advice column for the NY Times. This was last week's column, about fear of Bundt cakes.

Karen writes: My husband, David, hates Bundt cake. I believe he was scarred by grotesque Bundt-shaped 1970s recipes. But he likes cake. Please order him to try it.
