This week, on the Last Word on Nothing:
Erik is a committed father who is finding the toddler years more of a chore than some other dads make it seem. Candid soul searching ensues.
Cameron’s spring cleaning uncovers unwelcome houseguests. Her research into their origins and lifestyle only serves to gross her out further.
Speaking of gross, how do you like maggots that don’t wait until you’re dead to eat you? We used to have them in the United States. Cassie tells one of the great unsung eradication stories.
Helen delights us with a zoological survey of a Washington, D.C. sidewalk between the hours of two and five a.m. Complete with illustrations.
And Abstruse Goose shows us that Dickens is as relevant as ever in his insights on life as a person.
