  1. That’s cute! And for someone quite desperately homesick like me, the reminder at the end was useful ;)

  2. This post came shortly after the mini-earthquake we felt in Boston as I thought I was going to die alone in my underwear while watching the Lisa Frank video.

    I pressed the button. Everything is okay now. Thank you.

    • This is the second person that I’ve heard that was sitting in their underwear while the earthquake happened.

      I’m glad everything is okay now.

    • I was also in my underwear when the earthquake hit in DC. I just barely managed to pull on shorts before running screaming from my house. Wasn’t so lucky on the shoes front, though.

  5. I just read Rachel’s article on Larry King’s murderer’s trial and the button’s not working =(

    • i actually tried doing this in the middle of writing that article and was surprised by how much it helped!

  7. Wow. It’s really the loading time that does it; all that can be done is to take a deep, calm breath while being told everything is fine :)

  9. I really need this right now as I’m getting my exam results tomorrow and i’m feeling quite nauseous about it.

  10. Ok so after this button thing happened I was weighing out…some chemical (yeah, I’m a scientist) and the balance said “waiting for stability” and I looked mournfully at it and thought “you’re going to be waiting a long time, little dude.”

    and then I needed to hit the button again.

    Everything is okay now.
