Spike ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Did you see that "new atheism" piece in Wired? It had some interesting parts, although it suffered a bit from the "all journalism must now be as much about the writer as the subject" problem.
Yeah. ITA.
I might just be bitter that they didn't even mention Sock.
What's that? (My first reaction was that you're refering to my cat Señor Sock, but probably not, huh? ION, I need more caffeine.)
I definitely need more caffeine. Sock is Penn Jillette's novel from... a year or two ago? I think. It's sort of a mystery narrated by a sock monkey. But only sort of. It's quite funny if you enjoy random song lyrics and angry screeds. Which I do!
So... Benchmarks are not the same as timelines, and we'll win the war through the power of positive thinking. The president won't answer hypotheticals which are posited situations which do not fit his positive thinking, but saying everything will be fine against all evidence is fine.
Oooh, his jokes are not going over well.
Ah, good times, good times. SUCH a fun trip....
Oh, man. YES!
YES!
I think...
TOTALLY. Man, that was a fun trip. And Lee? If we go to the Castro this weekend, I'm putting a GPS tracker on you.
Happy birthday Brenda!!!
Happy belated to Kate P and RLiz!
Rewatched Eddie Izzard's "Dressed to Circle" (the one entirely in French) the other night - still fucking funny.

It's the Darth Vader at the Death Star cafeteria -- in French -- that makes me lose it every time.

I'll have to check that out....
I have a sock monkey.
I'm #1! I'm #1!! Uh, of course, I'm number one because I'm the biggest user of our primary tool here at work. I use it 3x more than the second place user. Which is a bit horrifying actually. Like seeing post counts.
I hate that. Also, "Workin' hard or hardly workin'?" I will throw my Swingline at you.
It's not like I'm looking for brilliant discourse at the office, but I wish people would stick to "caveman vs. astronaut" levels and stop commenting on things someone with the IQ of a plant would notice.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRENDA!
HAPPY BELATED, KATE P. AND RLIZ!
And that's all the asscaps I got.
"Workin' hard or hardly workin'?"
The one that irritated me more than anything was when I worked at a grocery store in high school. For some reason, when a customer's total came out a round number (like 16.00) or some other weird number, like 1776 they would say "Bet you couldn't do that again if you tried!". Except, I could do it again, if I tried. I could ring up the exact same items.
