"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I just get fed-up with agressive panhandlers who demand that I stop and talk to them. Also don't like the panhandlers who threaten to kill me because I didn't give them money.

I had a drunken/inarticulate guy shamble up to me at Overton Square last night asking if I could help him out with a meal. I briefly flirted with the idea of handing him the half-full Doritos bag from my car, but I'm pretty sure it would have been littering the street before I made it to the end of the block.

There was a day back in the fall when I got hit up by panhandlers SIX TIMES in an afternoon, including once in line at the checkout stand in a grocery store. I just barely avoided giving that last one a lecture about him having working limbs that could lift stuff, dig ditches, etc.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

I saw that Narrator. I laughed a lot.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

My wallet shall hold all of you responsible for the pain I'm about to inflict upon it.

I should be paying for wedding stuff, not toys for me.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

At least tell me I got a cute MacBeth.

In the midst of all the other conversation, this comment made me wonder what an iMacBeth would look like.

Trust my rage

Probably cute.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

I once gave a guy my 2 bags of recycling that I was about to return for the deposit money. He seemed to appreciate it.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Pshaw... Happy bride is good.

I've been putting on only the songs I actually would listen to in the future.

I have playlists for this in iTunes. I ripped a bunch of stuff on that I will rarely want to listen to but wanted nonetheless. The iPod is slightly more selective.

Up with the sun

Last question for the enablers: Do I get an iPod mini or the regular 20 or 40 gig version?

I have a 20 and it works. I filled it, but I have a LOT of music and ripped almost everything I own. (It holds a skosh less than 4500 songs.)

My second most favorite thing about my iPod is that it has allowed me to throw away my CDs.

I couldn't do that because CDs I don't want = cash or trade at used CD stores = more CDs for me. True, it's only $2 a disc or so, but it's enough to make it worth storing them until I can sell.
