No. You're missing the point. The design of the thing is functional. The plan is not to shoot you. The plan is to get the girl. If there's no girl, then the plan, well, is like the room.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Just so you know, I've been earwormed with "Karma Chameleon" all day.

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

The Japanese have sent a probe into orbit around the moon - it has a high-def camera. Here is an "updated" version of the famous "Earthrise" photo: [link]

Pretty. And you really see the stark, monochromatic features of the moon in contrast with the pretty blue Earth.

This one is also very pretty: [link]

Ooh. That's a good idea. I should go do that.

Plus I can read my new book that just arrived today: Lonely Minds in the Universe

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

ugh. Invitation to the company holiday party.

I am the only single person. I HATE this. Ima have to borrow a date. Kristen owes me a bunch of faux girlfriend dates. I don't know any boys.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Want me to send you Joe for the weekend?

I spent 80 minutes shuffling my cat back and forth to the vets where we decided she was healthy and she got shots.

And now I'm back at work, waiting for the servers to come back up.
