No studying? Damn! Next thing they'll tell me is I'll have to eat jelly doughnuts or sleep with a supermodel to get things done around here. I ask you, how much can one man give?

But it still would have meant a 40 minute drive.

umm, didn't you drive 40 miles?

The slogan for the new BK Stackers campaign is apparently "Managing Your Meat."

Ah, but now you have anecdotal proof beyond the say-so of a few horrifying news stories.

You mean like the football? My brother now attends UAB games. I think for the beer. He doesn't get the football thing, or the tailgating thing (except:beer) so that's really the only explanation. His descriptions are like those of the yanomomi or something.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

What, the leprechaun? I think it's a crackhead.

"Managing Your Meat."

Excuse me, I just turned into Beavis.

You mean like the football?

I was really talking political corruption and religious nuttery, but I'm not a football fan, either.

Now tagless for your comfort.

umm, didn't you drive 40 miles?

Yeah, but the idea was to drive, buy beer, go back home with said beer and watch football. The plan sounded better in our heads.

We learned our lesson.

Ha! I forgot about that.

oh, I see. You ended up driving 40 miles because the bastards didn't have the decency to have a liquor store. I understand.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Funniest weird blue law thing - local brew pubs (the ones that brew their own) can sell growlers (i.e. 1/2 gallon bottles) of beer, but not on Sundays (even though the package stores - MA lingo for liquor stores - can now open on Sundays, albeit only after noon). However, on Memorial Day, which, along with Thanksgiving and Xmas, the liquor stores can't be open at all, they could sell growlers. Huh?

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

Just now, I got a call from a man who was hit in the head with a laser and was implanted with a chip that reads his thoughts. And he wants to know if we know what kind of laser this is and how to remove the chip. I told him we don't have those kinds of lasers here, and wished him luck.
