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

ION, they're saying that "Steampunk has jumped the shark": Steampunk Toilet

Introducing the Electro-Flush! Technically, TeslaPunk Urinal. Hand-made solid oak tank with battery powered flush pump, laser aiming assist (aim at the laser dot in the bowl at night), lights, antique gauges, flush capacitor, and cup holder. Bowl is a round 1949 Standard.

The "flush capacitor" cracked me up....

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

Whoa. So we also had a surprise company meeting scheduled today, and it turns out...we're acquiring another company! Damn, we really have grown.

Good luck Jessica.

I've been doing house painting and it is taking a lot of time. Our house suddenly seems bigger.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Just how thickly are you applying the coats, Gud?

About two feet, just the right amount to protect against most siege engines.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why are people so fucking stupid? I posted a craigslist ad with one line of text, basically giving two pieces of information. I just got an email asking for those two pieces of information.
