It's a real burden being right so often.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
It's fucking green! No teady bear would want to fuck that.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I have work to do, I know I do. Not sure it's going to get done though.

What is even happening?
Me, too. Every once in a while, when I'm having an attack of the Uglies, I remind myself that I'm Clinton's demographic: smart and chubby. And then I feel better. No, seriously.
Me, too. Then, I start thinking I'm not smart enough for him. Then I remember few are. Then I console myself that I *am* smart enough to dry clean my dresses when they're in need of it.

And...Robot Manequins that spy on you:
The mannequin moving in the store window is no longer a fantasy. A Japanese firm has developed a mannequin robot that can strike a pose for customers - and spy on who they are and what they're buying.
"Mannequins have been static but this will pose for the nearest person by sensing his or her position," robot designer Tatsuya Matsui told a news conference.
"It makes the product the mannequin wears look more attractive, increasing consumers' appetite to buy," said Matsui, who heads Flower Robotics Inc.
If by "attractive" they mean "incredibly creepy" and by "appetite to buy," they mean "likelihood to run screaming from the store."

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

And...Robot Manequins that spy on you:
They've got a statue at Yerba Buena (in SF) that had motion sensors and would squat down to get a look at you.

Reminds me of Tim joking about certain Angel implausibilities by chanting "It's a show about a vampire!"
Except -- I think Angel did pretty well, and when you're a fantasy show, you get a bit more leeway than a cop show.
It's an odd article.
