I was getting ready for be-ed and I decided to check in on the bo-oard and so I went to the bo-oard and starting reading in Natter. Oh Robin was in there posting about that lame ass R. Kelly song/video and I had to laugh because I was talking about it the other day and then saw part of it on MTV2 this afternoon. Oh yeah, I sure did. Then I typed up this post and almost couldn't finish it because I was crackin myself up so hard, damn I am funny, I said, damn I am funny. I'm funny. Oh hell yeah I am so funny.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Bet they didn't have the gem from 1971, Nilsson's "You're breaking my heart, you're tearing it apart, so fuck you"

My mom (76) loves this song.

"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

Why, God, WHY?!? Emboldened by my viewing of Return of the King tonight, I went out and ate at a new Irish pub that opened near me. That's ate, not drank. Clearly my ancestors fled from Ireland back in the 19th century in search of the much tastier English cuisine.

I now know in my heart that Guinness was perfected in a desperate attempt to do away with the need for solid food altogether.

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

For context, I'm watching Spooks. If you're flirting with a woman, and you're reasonably sure she's into it, and then she leans over and whispers "I want to taste you." -- it's a done deal, right? You can go into the next room and just schrump like bunnies?

Family Guy showed us that the irish were a much advanced civilization.....

Fentons! Perkins, you're in Oakland? I haven't been to Fentons in ten years, but I remember, oh yes.

Sigh. Fentons.

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

I'm in Belmont, actually, but visiting Sparky1, who is in Berkeley. We didn't make it to Fentons though. It is on my list though.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I heard for the first time, "Fuck It, I Don't Want You Back." HOW DID I MISS THIS SONG THE FIRST TIME?!?!

There was an answer song, too -- "F.U.R.B." Which I assume stood for "Fuck You Right Back."

I have been informed that I knew Rufus Wainwright, but I don't remember him. I have just blanked on both the name of the sitcom and the actress from it who I also know from school.

I do, however, quite clearly remember J. Torres, and am chuffed to hear he's writing Teen Titans Go. It's so weird. Something was in the McGill water, I swear. Colin's going to Comic Con because of something related to the Sci Fi movie he just shot. He's going to look up J, and I've told him to look up John Rogers too (who we also knew at McGill). I never imagined then that any of these people would be at Comic Con in official capacities.
