My computer was in the shop for a whole week last month. I was freaking the hell out the whole time. I actually find Wikipedia more useful than Google these days, though.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

where would it be without the mocking?
I had to explain to someone that the only reason I really like to be around people at all is because of the opportunities it offers to mock!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
So, speaking of annoying New York types... I was just in McDonald's and this little girl was throwing a drama fit about how she couldn't possibly sit there, with lots of pointing and gasping. The nanny was like, whatever, and started moving to another table. Finally the little girl said, "They wrote on the banquet!" Since when do five year olds know what a banquet is?

What is even happening?
Um, what is a banquet. I mean, I know the "fancy feast" definition, but did she mean the table, or counter, or what.
Also? She's smart. Chris (will I EVER stop typing that as "Christ" < backspace > < space >) talked me into it, and my stomach is still unhappy, two and a half hours later.

banquet
I think it's ban-ket, which is a built in bench.

Fuck, I don't mean banquet. Banquette? The seats along the wall.
This is why I'll never be rich.

She meant the seat. (Pronounced like the qu are a k, I believe.)

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
Banquette? The seats along the wall.
Correct.

Oh, but I did have a positive Youth Of New York experience, too -- these three boys on the subway were rapping to each other and singing and stuff, and I knew all the songs! (Ludacris, Kanye, Daddy Yankee, plus bonus R. Kelly mockery) I felt very hip and now.
