Time for some thrilling heroics.

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.

Because books.

Natter 55: Don't Read ita's Whitefont.

I am so voting for this.

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

Well, in ita's defense, she did say it was worse than goatse

Yeah, that's true. That should probably have been adequate warning.

Maybe we could rank ita's links... on a scale of 1-10, with goatse being 10, the link being discussed would be around 18, with the whitefont being around 6.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Personally, I couldn't fathom anything worse than goatse.

Happy birthday brenda!

If you don't want the fishing cat, can I have it?

So when do we find out it was somehow all your fault?

Oh, good, someone else said it.

We're all getting played with, babe. -Weird Barbie

Remember that rage we were talking about earlier? I'm feeling it right now. I really hate when higher-ups make arbitrary decisions. My boss has decreed that we must all be here on campus tomorrow, despite the fact that we're just working on narrative comments. I was really looking forward to sleeping in and avoiding my hellish commute before spending 10 hours writing comments tomorrow. Now I have to be here. Grrrrrr!

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Timelies!

HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY, KATEP!!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, BRENDA!!

Count me in on the all-cranky all the time list. Grrrr.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Here is a funny cartoon related to hamsters and weapons, TURN YOUR HAMSTER INTO A FIGHTING MACHINE:

[link]

It is NOT related to ita's links or goatse, and no real hamsters were harmed in the making of it either. I particularly like the look on the face of the hamster in the middle of the page....

"I keep to a strict diet of ill-advised enthusiasm and heartfelt regret." Leigh Bardugo

Oddly, I'm not especially ragey. I do get frustrated (durable medical equipment company and insurance company, I'm looking at both of you), but even then it isn't rage. It's just resignation at the stupidity of bureaucracy.

TURN YOUR HAMSTER INTO A FIGHTING MACHINE:

That whole thing is a pretty funny parody of D.I.Y. project stuff. Note the safety warnings and "troubleshooting" sections....
