Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Austria has built the world's first beer swimming pool.

Oh brave new world, that has such beer pools in it!!!

Remember the News Radio where they explained to Dana that she was "smokey"? Like that.

That was Sports Night.

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

Dear Science Chimp,

There is a badge reader next to the door. It is flashing red, the universal color of "you are denied access."

Yanking on the door will not suddenly make the light green. When you see me get up from my desk to let you in, and you continuously YANK on the OBVIOUSLY LOCKED DOOR, it makes me want to sit back down at my desk and ignore you.

You are a fucking idiot, please get off my planet. I'm sure you can build yourself a rocket ship and go.

Best,

The Secretary

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

Ok, I was confused. Because I couldn't remember a Dana on News Radio, but Dana on SportsNight is so not smoky.

I guess I'm still confused.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

It's News Radio. Beth says it to Lisa.

Lisa: Alright look I did not ask for the stupid award.
Beth: If I were you I'd be upset too. I mean you?Cute? Come on.
Lisa: I am not entirely uncute. I... I... Why are you being nasty about this?
Beth: I'm not being nasty. You're pretty. You're very pretty in fact. But cute, I don't think so.
Lisa: Well I wasn't aware there was a difference.
Beth: Well of course there is a difference. Pretty means pretty. Cute means pretty but short and/or hyperactive-- like me!
Lisa: Uh huh. What is beautiful?
Beth: Beautiful means pretty and tall.
Lisa: Gorgeous?
Beth: Pretty with great hair.
Lisa: Striking?
Beth: Pretty with a big nose.
Lisa: OK, you're making this up.
Beth: That's ridiculous, why would I make it up?
Lisa: Sexy?
Beth: Pretty and easy.
Lisa: Exotic?
Beth: Ugly

Unless there's also a Sports Night thing that I am unawares of.

Anthropologie is so weird.

Last (and only, it is a new store) time I was in there I was simulaneously uninterested in the clothes and a bit scared by the prices.

I have to get a dress for a wedding in SD in August. Uhg.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

On the way home, should I stop at Best Buy to get a TV or go to Costco to get a printer?


sarameg - Jun 03, 2005 3:59:54 pm PDT #9220 of 10001

Which would be more satisfying tonight? Shiny new printer or shiny new tv? That should answer your question.

Hmm. That's a good question. Sadly, I just realized I didn't bring the right credit card with me, so I think the answer is neither, at least until tomorrow.
