No, you need to place it on the floor and then straddle it; then you just let the rising heat warm you up.

I can forgive the last one; I can totally see myself trying to cook food on top of a toaster if it came down to that.

I'd be so conflicted about that; on the one hand, talk about a sign of freshness! But on the other hand, eww, a bug!

Reply to comment by CodeArmstrong in TIL Why Dog Paws Smell Like Fritos. Even the cleanest, healthiest pooch has trillions of bacteria and fungi living on their skin. That yeasty, corn chip smell is actually a normal byproduct of harmless bacteria, usually Proteus or Pseudomonas, both of which are naturally present in our environment. by Rossknight65

Do you ever give your dog table scraps with onions? My moms Akita would have the worst gas after eating onions (we didn't know onions were bad for dogs at the time).

That's always been true with radio; if you listen to a live concert broadcast, you're hearing the sound from your radio before many people in the venue have had a chance for the sound to even reach them.

> Our 24 hour, 60 minute, 60 second system is weird and unintuitive
It isn't; it's based on base-12 counting, which is far easier for people to work with when the advanced tech of the day is an abacus.
