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 just finished reading Nora Ephron's book. She has an essay in it about renting an apartment with 5 bedrooms and the end of rent stabilization. And how she had her rent tripled becuase she was making more than $250,000 a year and the subsidies no longer applied to her.
I kept thinking, "hmm... somehow I'm not filled with sympathy for the rich lady, the one whose screenplays get nominated for academy awards, who has to pay more in rent."
I deal with people in the UK all the time at work. I have to be careful to call "#" a "hash mark".
I remember that people used to refer to it as the “gate” key and I was very confused.
I hear "hash mark" and immediately think "marching band".
My weirdo brain jumps to that song “Hash Pipe” and how I couldn’t really understand what he was saying, and MTV had the title on the video as “****pipe”, so I looked at it and said “Ass Pipe, what the hell is that?” Then I realized that it was 4 letters, not 3, but we still called it the asspipe, and that makes me laugh.
And wasn't it a come as you AREN'T party?
I once wore a floral shirt to a “come as you aren’t party” I was a wallflower.

That's where my brain went and then I thought I remembered the marching band from the link I posted playing that as opposed to the Radiohead they were actually playing.
Best Butler comment: Shit, Bob, just fuck the Pulitzer.
Spider-Cat. Does whatever a spider can!
Video. Now I'm curious what the surface of that wall is like....
That's a great video. Must be stucco?
More from Gawker on Bob Butler, FYI: [link]
That's comming up on my NPR in just a few.
ETA: I was just coming in here to post it.

That's my guess. Note that the kitty climbs on a corner, allowing it to exert some pressure on the wall surfaces.
I can't see the clip, but my family has a cat who climbed walls for the longest time. Pretty smooth plaster surface over sheetrock, too. She just has really needle sharp claws, is lightweight and very, very strong.
