Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

MIT Mario Bros = hilarious. But shouldn't those kids be studying?!?!?

I'm going to walk to the subway, and curse each homeowner who has not yet properly cleared their sidewalk of snow and/or ice.

Grrr! I hate those people. Especially because it just compounds over the course of the winter.

Here is my problem: I just don't care about either of the classes I have left. But I need to. Bleh.

And the stupid president is on the television. Luckily, I have the Boondocks on the DVR.

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

I ran through my Boondocks yesterday (the premiere had rolled off the TiVo) and thought it quite interesting. Not hysterical, like I was expecting, but interesting. Hella violent and not optimistic. The latter NSM of a surprise as the former.

I generally want to re-watch the first 5 or 10 minutes, usually because I can't believe they really went there, but the rest nsm.

I know, right? I wasn't expecting the violence.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

The Boondocks cartoon is violent? Huh. Guess MacGruder's taking advantage of that late-night timeslot.

I'm not on my way to work yet because I made an appointment for a cleaning service to come.

Why is it when people say, "8-8:45", they really mean 8:45 or 9? Pfeh.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Yeah, there's been a big chunk of "can't go there in a family newspaper" in every ep I've seen (although I missed a few until TiVo and I had a little talk) -- dark, violent, all-naked-all-gay, you name it.

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

I just don't have the time to go to work today.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

The internets are too slow today. Someone should fix them.

Because books.

Stupid question from virgin laptop owner (who inherited her father's old work ThinkPad): How does one charge the battery? Does it charge by using it plugged in for a while?
