As various wags have pointed out, everything built during the 1970s resembles a medium-security prison.Notably the Moscone Center. Moscone deserved better.
Whoa! I... I think I'm having a thought. Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's a thought. Now I'm having a plan. Now I'm having a wiggins.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The shiny new Disney Concer Hall in downtown LA is a little too shiny and has to hand-sand some of the shinier bits which were torching people.
That's so sad.
I can say my elementary school had little windows because it was supposed to have a "state of the art" heating/cooling system. But then they ran out of money, is what I heard. At least, that makes some sense why the school would have no air conditioning AND windows that didn't open.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
"There are no sorority houses because of an old brothel law."
Is this one not true, because Centenary had sorority houses, but the sisters couldn't live there. The boys, however could live in the frat houses.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
"this dorm was designed after the '60s to make it harder for students to occupy/protest."
This is said of UC Santa Cruz, which definitely doesn't have much in the way of common space like Berkeley's Sproul Plaza.

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 just purchased some birthday gifts for my nephew. A onesie with the galaxy on it and the caption: Center of the Universe.
Also, a space shuttle tub toy with two astronauts.
CUTE.
Auntie buy toys.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there
How 'bout the, "this dorm was designed by a guy who used to design prisons" and "this dorm was designed after the '60s to make it harder for students to occupy/protest."
The most convincing variation of this that I've heard is that one of the dorms at Trent University was designed without bathrooms. And seriously, to walk down a corridor from one end of the building to another, you went through three bathrooms, because they were in the corridor with swinging doors on each end.
