Date Rape Drug Detecting Nail Polish Will Not Possibly Work
If you thought it smelled a bit like acetone and bullshit, you were right.

This has been a winter of cider-shame. Shame at glancing down at the recycling in my apartment only to note that its only contents are dozens and dozens of empty bottles of Angry Orchard cider.
