Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I was just watching an episode of Science's top 100 discoveries, and they mentioned the guy who discovered sperm. For the first time I am led to wonder about how that little discovery came about. Like, was he using his own spunk?

Weird, I just answered a trivia question during an office baby shower about the age of the oldest mother to give birth. And now she's dead.

Quick, answer a trivia question about Dick Cheney or Rush Limbaugh.

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

Um... yum, I think....

Homemade oatmeal stout and Heath Bar ice cream

Not sure about this. I'll have to make a huge batch and taste it repeatedly to make a final judgment.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Jessica, I think you might need an outsider to taste it as well, so I'll come to NY and help you. I wouldn't want you to suffer by yourself.

This is kind of pathetic:

When is a Starbucks not a Starbucks? When it's a 15th Avenue Coffee and Tea.

The ubiquitous coffee-shop giant is dropping the household name from its 15th Avenue East store on Capitol Hill, a shop that was slated to close at one point last year but is being remodeled in Starbucks' new rustic, eco-friendly style.

It will open next week, the first of at least three remodeled Seattle-area stores that will bear the names of their neighborhoods rather than the 16,000-store chain to which they belong.

Such selflessness must be rewarded...with ice cream!

I am happy to be compensated in such a way for damn near anything, really.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

So I was scrolling, and I read this:

I was just watching an episode of Science's top 100 discoveries, and they mentioned the guy who discovered sperm. For the first time I am led to wonder about how that little discovery came about. Like, was he using his own spunk?

And then there was other stuff and then this:

Jessica, I think you might need an outsider to taste it as well

Er.
