Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

So, you want us to believe you're neither a pirate nor a lesbian? Likely story.

I just spent ten minutes setting up my 401K situation. Somehow that doesn't seem like long enough! But I can change any part of it whenever.

Arrrrrr... No really, I'm neither. I know some lesbians and I've been chased by pirates. Does that make it better?

I've been chased by pirates.

Whoa. You Canadians have been holding out on some of the more exciting aspects of your lives, that's for sure.

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

Video of drunk-ass squirrel: [link]

It ate too much fermented pumpkin. It kept on trying to climb a tree but it'd just fall down. Then it chased its tail in circles.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Me too. Testing things on the world's slowest computer is no fun.

We could destroy the world. Or write Sports Night fic.

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

One of the physicists in my group was immortalized in this exchange between Jim Carrey and Conan O'Brien (i think recently).

Sometimes I break my socialization. Coworker came by to let me know he's retiring, for real, this time. I congratulated and inquired about future plans and whatnot. What I did not say: "you'll be missed." Which he will, even by me (he was my boss for a while.)

But it just flat out didn't cross my mind to say that.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

But it just flat out didn't cross my mind to say that.

I bet he's crying in the bathroom right now.
