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.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

Thank you! Incidentally, that bar he was discovered at is literally across the street from my building.

The Slashdot article doesn't mention it, but his songs are downloadable from adultswim.com. I don't have the exact link, though, because I'm blocked at work from it.

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

Mmm. Bison.

the cockroaches are disturb-a-rama.

It always reminds me of Infinite Jest, and how the death throes of network TV were both signalled and speeded by advertisements for tongue-scrapers -- they were so disgusting that they actually made people stop watching, but as people stopped watching they were the only advertisers the channels could get.

Alas, the cockroaches probably don't signal the demise of the pages featuring them, or of whatever company's responsible for them. But they should.

It's actually been a really hard year, when you stop and do the math. Eliot would cry, too, if it didn't take him seventy minutes of therapy, two cocktails, and a Sondheim medley before he can experience a human emotion through the haze of his PTSD.

Perkins is currently on her way to Ohio with a replenished supply of tamarind balls.

Okay, I give. What the holy hell are tamarind balls?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Huh. I just ended up at trustedsearch trying to get to my yahoo mail, but I reloaded and it was OK. Weird.

After you castrate the domesticated tamarind...

Wild tamarinds are much more spicy, though -- trap them if you can.
