I overslept like CRAZY this morning, which is kind of awesome, because now I feel well-rested. Of course, it kind of sucks, because I was super late to work, but whatever.

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.
I am so jealous of your sleep, Jesse. If I worked in your office, I would be following you around saying, "I want your sleep. Give it to me."
I am marginally less tired than I usually am on Mondays. I got to bed not as late as I normally do on Sundays, so I even woke up 10 minutes before the alarm. Did I get up? of course not.
ION, I happened to look to see how many fat grams my cheap and beloved sausage biscuit from Mickey D's has? TWENTY FUCKING SEVEN. We will not be having that any more.
Zombie!shrift!
OK, so if you see a fawncy car with the license plate MENTOBE, you you want to crash into it or wonder about the driver's gender identification or surgical career?

Heh. I thought "meant to be," even though I realize there's an extra T there.....
This just sounds too bizarre and goofy to be true... OTOH, it is the Pentagon:
Pentagon Confirms It Sought To Build Gay Bomb
BERKELEY A Berkeley watchdog organization that tracks military spending said it uncovered a strange U.S. military proposal to create a hormone bomb that could purportedly turn enemy soldiers into homosexuals and make them more interested in sex than fighting.
Pentagon officials on Friday confirmed to CBS 5 that military leaders had considered, and then subsquently rejected, building the so-called “Gay Bomb.”
Edward Hammond, of Berkeley’s Sunshine Project, had used the Freedom of Information Act to obtain a copy of the proposal from the Air Force’s Wright Laboratory in Dayton, Ohio.
As part of a military effort to develop non-lethal weapons, the proposal suggested, “One distasteful but completely non-lethal example would be strong aphrodisiacs, especially if the chemical also caused homosexual behavior.”
The documents show the Air Force lab asked for $7.5 million to develop such a chemical weapon.
“The Ohio Air Force lab proposed that a bomb be developed that contained a chemical that would cause enemy soliders to become gay, and to have their units break down because all their soldiers became irresistably attractive to one another,” Hammond said after reviwing the documents.
“The notion was that a chemical that would probably be pleasant in the human body in low quantities could be identified, and by virtue of either breathing or having their skin exposed to this chemical, the notion was that soliders would become gay,” explained Hammond.
I mean, this is pretty much impossible given our current technology. OTOH, this might just have been some Pentagon brass dude thinking it would be a cool idea, despite the utter unfeasibility of it...
Also, am now earwormed with "Gay Bar," except with the words changed to "Gay Bomb."

The car belongs to a member of Boys2Men?
Also, am now earwormed with "Gay Bar," except with the words changed to "Gay Bomb."
I'm earwormed with Tom Jones singing "Sex Bomb," only now as "Gay Bomb."
I heard about the Gay Bomb on Wait Wait, Don't Tell Me this weekend! Funny.

I, too, am earwormed, but with Tom Jones, singing Gay Bomb instead of Sex Bomb.
