My 81 y.-o. mother texted me a happy birthday message. Oh, brave new world.
That's bonkers. My parents would not know a text if it was mailed to them on paper.
Right, what's a little sweater sniffing between sworn enemies?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Right? It's both awesome and mind boggling. This from a woman who refused for YEARS to get an answering machine.
Also,

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?
The "s" word was mentioned in the weekend forecast.
What?? You're back in Michigan, right?? RIGHT?!?!?

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

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
What?? You're back in Michigan, right?? RIGHT?!?!?
Nope, sorry.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
We had crazy wind here today. This morning, I saw the wind knock over a newspaper dispenser.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
An un (less?) retouched picture of the Ralph Lauren model in the ad that tommy linked to yesterday. I completely fail to see the point of making her look like that. It certainly doesn't help the clothes any. They're still fugly.
I keep seeing ads for the new Steven Seagal series, and it just makes me laugh. I'm sure many of the people he arrests are relatively chuffed by the personnel, even if they're pissed at the turn of events itself. I just can't keep from thinking about what an ass he's supposed to be.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Randomly, I'm watching old Sesame Street clips. When did the set get so clean? I remember it looking like a typical grungy city street, like this: [link] In newer clips, that green door got much brighter green and the steps look brand new. [link]
Gentrification, man.
