Live web trafficcam showing the collapsed bridge. Hmm... I wonder if the feed was being recorded anywhere....
I kissed him, and I told him that I loved him. And I killed him.

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

ION I just read a post on another board where someone realized who John Hodgman on The Daily Show reminds them of: Dr. Bunsen Honeydew.
OMG, they are SO right! Especially since he made Beaker sounding noises during his last appearence.

Speak of the devil - live security-cam footage of bridge collapse. Looks like one picture every 1/2 or 1 second....

It's getting long enough that I'm losing my curl, man.
A round of haircuts for my friends.
Oy, Emmett's got five baseball games in the next four days. That's a lot of time at the fields. Tournament final in San Ramon tonight. We're overdue for a tourney win. I hope we can pull one out tonight.
But right now he's watching a South Park episode with little goth kids.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
That first outfit wouldn't be bad with a jacket and heels. I would think it would be fine for a casual Friday, but then, I'm in Texas.
Still. I don't think I'd argue it in quite that self entitled way.
Dress codes are a bit of a thing for me anyway. I have a craxy feminist theory that they are often used to bully women.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Our wings are not tired
One of the things I love about my work. I set my dress code. Today it's denim shorts, a grey t-shirt and slip on Chuck Taylor low-top shoes.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
Daisy- I actually agree that the outfit would be OK for casual Friday, and I also hate dresscodes, but the girl is still kinda twitty.
I have a craxy theory that dress codes are used to bully fat people.

Don't let Ple hear it! She'll get righteous and wroth.
I would like to point out that in the 80s women were made to dress like clowns with big floppy bows at their necks. Dress for Success...in the circus!

Well sure, but there are often icky sexual connotations for women. Sometimes it's a good excuse for one group of women to gang up on another.
