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

somebody asked why IMDB wasn't a wiki, which I hope was in jest, but just in case

Somebody is me (I think -- I never actually asked that), and Brenda's right -- I said coulda.

The web interface to IMDB predates the first wiki by two years. Not *that* long, even in web time.

What online dictionary to people recommend? One of the reasons I keep my Britannica membership around is because Merriam Webster has made some of its words unfree, and the Britannica membership lets me have access.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

I use the Dictionary Search extension for Firefox, with Merriam-Webster for back up.

Coding and Sleeping

I think this may be the most distrubing article I've seen about the new Supreme Court nominee.

Art Crawl!!!

You know, krav wasn't just mentioned on HIMYM, it was a plot point.

Also, look at Princess Aiko all in pink.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Clearly I fail early morning reading comprehension. (Tho' I think there's a viable argument that two Internet years are not unlike Dog years.)

How come I felt so great after yoga yesterday and this morning I feel like I was run over by a bulldozer? Perhaps the real answer is to go to yoga every day....

I have nothing to add to the autism discussion

The autism discussion is in Bitches.

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

I think this may be the most distrubing article I've seen about the new Supreme Court nominee.

She sounds like kinda like Condi in this respect.

I'm now picturing the three of them... in a threesome.

Go ahead. Call me a sick fuck. You know you wanna....

Swouncing

Merriam Webster has made some of its words unfree

My English is apparently not advanced enough for me to need to look up any of those unfree words, because that's the first time I've bumped into that.

Of course, I also always need the English-Hebrew and Hebrew-English options as well, so usually I turn to more than just m-w. I used to like "Babylon", but a few month ago they took down their online version, so now I use a dictionary called morfix. This was a whole paragraph that probably interests only me.
