NEW YORK – The three-year marriage of Salman Rushdie and Padma Lakshmi has ended, their publicists said Monday. “Salman Rushdie has agreed to divorce his wife, Padma Lakshmi, because of her desire to end their marriage,” his representative, Jin Auh, said in a statement. “He asks that the media respect his privacy at this difficult time.”
So, go back and see why two out of two octopi are celebrating the news (courtesy of Rain).
The bad part is, except for the baldness, I don’t look all that different from Salman . . . .

But do you fuck every star-struck undergraduate who puts herself in your way?

FFE! You are in there, my friend! All you have to do is to convince her that being seen with you will only result in everyone laughing at her (come on, admit it, it’s happened with every other woman you’ve known) but this time you have the distinct advantage over her ex, in that far fewer than 20% of the world’s population sees you as a target for assassination.
