It is so funny to see these small world posts on the buffistas!

Also, why do people have to push and cut and generally just walk in front of me to get on the bus. I don't walk too slow-- I am just behind the person in front of me, and I move up, but people come in from the side and enter the line! They even walk up to the door of the bus from the side and just get on. It is Rochester, people! There are plenty of seats! You will get one, and if not, you can stand! One of these days I am going to get a whistle and make people form an orderly line-- I mean, didn't we get taught how to form an orderly line in kindergarten! And then I have to laugh at myself for getting so worked up about other people being impatient, because it is just a waste of time. But I am seriously still annoyed now, four hours later, because it happens all the time!

"In the equation E = mc⬧, c⬧ is a pretty big honking number." - Scola

Very annoying. Partly because it's just so rude -- somehow you're more important than I am? -- and partly, for me, because there's no polite way to deal with it. As rude as it is for them to cut, it's somehow also considered rude to draw attention to other people's rudeness. I wish that wasn't so, because it makes me very worked up too.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

This says the bottom lip should be 1.5x the size of the top lip.

Of course I had to get out my mirror. I think my lips are about the same.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sophia, in the parking garage here at work, there is one of those arm things (like in most parking garages), and you have to enter a code to make the arm thing rise.

On the other side, though, where cars come out of the garage, the arm is permanently raised. It drives me INSANE when people just swing around and go in the exit lane. Just enter the fucking code! It takes you two seconds! YOU ARE NOT BETTER THAN THE RULES!

Art Crawl!!!

Isn't Igloo an excellent name for a pup? (And one I'd never have thought of.)

Bowdoin the Bulldog - doesn't he seem leggier than the bulldogs that come to mind? But I think that's better- more athletic.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Yes it was. "Then" implies time or causation -- this happened then that happened, if this then that. "Than" is comparative. Off the top of my head.

Thanks Emily. I always seem to type "then" first, but I know that the bulk of the time I change it to "than" (correctly, it seems, since I tend to write more comparitive than causal items).

Ha! Like there for example.

Emily- I think you are right-- I am really getting worked up about people taking no notice of another's existance-- it is so selfish! It is really the same thing in the parking garage. I mean, what if everyone starting driving in the exit lane! At the university sometimes people just drive THROUGH the arm to get into a parking lot. I am assuming it is a student, because an adult should have a little more self control!

I think at least a couple people here know guys they could buy one of these T-shirts for as gag gifts: [link]

glances over at ita Did you know that there’s an entire LJ community dedicated to Jack Carter/Nathan Stark?

In my experience, threesomes aren't all they're cracked up to be.

My understanding is that it’s best to be the “guest star”. Me, I’m not secure enough for a threesome. I don’t want boy-boy-girl because I don’t want to be used as a conduit for the boys to get to each other (it’s not gay if there’s a girl in the room), and I don’t want girl-girl-boy if she’s hotter than me. And if she’s not hotter than me, what’s the point? Even if Charlize Theron was involved.

That's kind of a creepy looking picture, honestly. Not sexually creepy, just...I find it weird and unsettling.

Somehow, it’s the painted nails that bother me. I think that it’s because it seems like they’re trying to make her look older, and sexualized children are creepy (see Jon-Benet Ramsey)

Tape?

Wrapped with yarn, then painted the yarn with nail polish. It was a bitch to get off. You needed a razor blade to cut through the unvarnished yarn.
