I haven’t been here very long but I’ve already come to appreciate the Related column and missed it when it disappeared.
This combo recently came up for me:
—Spaghetti and meatballs for breakfast. Odd, you say? Name an odd meal that you’ve had for breakfast?
Can a bearded dragon eat mealworms?
I’m babysitting- How do I help this baby not spit up so much?

Does what you see in Related ever make you laugh/smile/giggle? Do you go and read the old threads? Do you post in them?
(bring good combos back here if you run into some)

Thanks @BellaB for pointing out an endless source of fun. Indeed it’s not just that some questions are hilarious, it’s also that some of the “related” threads have absolutely nothing to see with what they’re supposed to be related to.
