Can I hate everyone today, please?
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

Given what I do for a living, I'm ashamed of my score on the font game (25/34; but I SWEAR it looked like Bodoni!).
Yeah, I console myself that just as I was learning typesetting desktop publishing was taking off and eliminated a lot of the need to be super-familiar with every typeface. I bet Ginger could kick all our asses at font recognition.

Dear lord that kitty is freakishly cute. It also looks inconsolably sad.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda
Teppy's score is also mine. There was an era in which I could identify almost every existing font, but that era is long gone. I got types like Bodoni and Century. Now there are hundreds of types and thousands of type names, due to the dreadful legal ruling that you can register a type name, but not the type itself. I tend to fall back on what I know, plus novelty types.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

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

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Aw, kitty! Except, was anyone else freaked out by the 4th picture? It took me a minute to realize it wasn't a tiny kitten head on a big ole cat.
I don't think I can do anything else today. And yet? I think I have to. And then it's my boss's going away party, where I guess I should say something. Ugh!

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

Say "BOO-YAH! IN YOUR FACE BOSS FROM HELL! DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT YOU ON YOUR VOLUMINOUS ASS ON THE WAY OUT!"
Then do a keg stand.
