I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

WTF? That really bites, and makes me wonder if the technical Oscar winners get treated the same way.

Yeah, it kinda blew. I really wanted to try some outrageous eye color, like purple or something. They wouldn't even honor the coupons for the Local's business reps and management, even though we asked them to provide X number of coupons, matching out the number of presenter's bag we assembled.

But they were not public coupons, and they reserved the right to refuse to honor them, which they did. I wonder if any of the actors who were presenters that night even bothered to use them. I suspect not, so they got a great bargain out of the deal. Free advertizing to people who would probably rarely use their services, and no expenditures or handout on their part.

Wankers.

I get no swag.

How many work pens do you have at home?

also Bookstore gift certificates? Turkey basters? That's "accidental swag" but swag none the less.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Turkey basters?

Lesbian Parenthood Conference swag?

I so want somebody to do this with the Joy of Cooking.

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

The splitting of Africa. I want to know two main things: a) what is the line, and b) when will the sea first seep in and not go back.

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

This is scary and sad - a drug trial goes horribly wrong: [link]

Two men remain critically ill and four others are in a serious condition after suffering a violent reaction while taking part in a clinical drugs trial.

All are still in intensive care in Northwick Park Hospital, north-west London, after falling ill on Monday.

Myfanwy Marshall told BBC News her boyfriend's body was badly swollen and she had been told he could die.
