No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Natter 37: Oddly Enough, We've Had This Conversation Before.  

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.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

Erm, Hec? Would it compromise the look of it too much to have a gear package added? And thus, the best of both worlds?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Today I disassembled the rebuilt four-barrel carburetor I just bought, and had my suspicions confirmed - the wankers set the float height wrong.

I guess that would depend on how much it costs since I expect something like that would eat up the 50% discount.

Those inaccurate float height fuckers!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Well, I'm droopy, but we had to get up early for Emmett's baseball practice, and now I'm having a mid afternoon, droop inducing beer.

It's not actually mid-afternoon for you yet, you know. I'm much droopier today after a mid-afternoon coffee than I was yesterday after a mid-afternoon mimosa. It is curious.

But I'm listening to a hilarious mix of music off my computer (unplayed songs alpha by title, so it's all Guy/Nellie McKay/Journey/Kanye West).

Well, that's true. So I think I'll have a latte now on top of the beer for the speedball effect.

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

The Aristocrats isn't until 4:30! That so jiggers my plans.

I have music on my hands. A grenade was thrown into the CD storage at krav. This counts as mildly weird, but at least it was an un-juiced grenade, that only clipped one CD. But the metallic-optic covering is all over my hands like glitter on steroids from the cleanup.

Pink bike.

Here you can see the martini motif

There's a bike like that in The Wedding Crashers.

Which means she totally needs it.

I meant to see Wedding Crashers today, but now I'm too droopy! Darn it.

How technologically ridiculous am I that I just used Google Earth to find out where, exactly, the track is in the park I was at earlier because I forgot to look for it in person?
