This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

Holy crap, that's next month? Huh.

I got one too, Suzi, since it's an online company!

Me too! My sister and I were thinking about (finally) getting our act together and putting together a cookbook of our family recipes. Now I'm thinking maybe we actually *make* the stuff and take pretty pictures and do it like that. Cause there aren't a ton, really, and this would make it more special.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Why?

Because I think in general, pain and sickness makes a person look older. (Clearly not so in your case...)

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

I think in general, pain and sickness makes a person look older

Which would often mean that you're closer to dying, right? So the younger you look, the further from dying you are.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

My family is genetically young looking, but I think it is also because we are genetically fat. I wonder what that does to the statistics.

Sure, I guess that's fair. Note that I didn't actually read the article.

British Columbia Transit System has the worst fucking website for the fucking bus tickets for the Olympics EVER.

Yeah, oops, sorry bout that! Translink aren't the brightest bulbs on the planet.

But exciting Olympics, yay! Which events are you going to, Kat?

I shall just be trying to commute normally downtown, which should be fun, in a way that is not.

Coding and Sleeping

Gary Cass’s Christian Anti-Defamation Commission (CADC) lists the top ten attacks on Christians in 2009.

I wonder if they have oppression jealously of homosexuals. Prop 8 blows away everything on their list combined.

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

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

This is a cool blog about my neighborhood: Rogers Park Cheetos

A blog that's limited to pictures of empty Cheetos bags found littering the neighborhood.

The Onion AV Club sez:

Focus: Compiling a visual diary of empty Cheetos bags spotted littering the streets of Rogers Park, Estes Dude has at once created a hilarious photo essay and a thought-provoking discourse on the casual nature of urban pollution. The minimal commentary (usually limited to the location of the titular bags) keeps the message strictly on-point, while the fantastic sidebar mini-essays remind readers that the neighborhood's not defined by its junk food—just by its junk.

Too localized?: Not at all. By restricting his findings to the Cheetos bags of Rogers Park, Estes Dude gives character to otherwise nondescript street trash and paints a picture of beloved sidewalks, lawns, and alleyways soiled by the laziness of Cheetos-eating passersby.

I wonder if I leave a Cheetos bag in front of my apartment, if would end up on his blog....
