Zoe: I thought you wanted to spend more time off-ship this visit. Wash: Out there is seems like it's all fancy parties. I like our party better. The dress code is easier and I know all the steps.

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

Cool-ass furniture: [link]

During London Design Festival, we will be introducing prototypes called Gridlock. This new range of furniture is inspired by architectural cross bracing, a system used to reinforce structures. However, this collection transposes the grid system to fit within the domestic scale.

The structure itself both encases and showcases elemental materials trapped within. A bare light bulb is caged within its respective void, revealing a lamp, whilst a honed stone slab rests atop the structure, to form a side table.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

A bare light bulb is caged within its respective void, revealing a lamp

I don't think that's cool enough to justify the bulk (that's a big footprint for a lamp) but I'm probably not the target audience.

My fear is my cat would get stuck in it.

Nightmare Before Christmas Cake: Yours for Only $8,000

It's a bad thing that I want to e-mail The Girl and say "If I only invite three people and we change the venue to our living room, can I have this?", right?

Depends. Am I one of the three? If so then it's an awesome thing made of glitter and joy-filled donuts.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

mmmm, donuts.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Sometimes I feel like a bad feminist for my lack of passion in re Polanski. I mean, I'm not defending him because I liked Chinatown; I feel that he deserves to be picked up,but it's not stirring my blood in any way. But then, I don't have kids to protect.
