She used to not understand why people indulged in alcohol, but now she does shots.
I wouldn't have thought someone who couldn't fake normal interaction in person (and had such contempt for it) could or would fake it on the page, but there you go.
Well, lady, I must say-- You're my kinda stupid.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
The employees at Tesco seem to be immune to mind tricks, and have kicked out the founder of the International Church of Jediism. Daniel Jones, 23, who founded the religion based on the Star Wars movies, was asked to leave because his robes were against store rules which forbid the wearing of 'hoodies' in their premises. "I told them it was a requirement of my religion but they just sniggered and ordered me to leave," he told The Daily Telegraph newspaper. "I walked past a Muslim lady in a veil. Surely the same rules should apply to everyone." It's exactly this kind of stuff that turns young Jedi's to the dark side.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Which makes the casting of Ryan O'Neal very ironic.

Yeah, that sounds super different from the character as written in the books. Who I've never though of as at all on the autism spectrum. (But who is written as an alcoholic mostly-in-recovery).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

That's the least of the differences, really.

Kevin Pereira of G4’s Attack of the Show solicited contributors to a Keyboard Cat-themed art show and auction. Proceeds will go to the no-kill cat rescue shelter Kitten Rescue in Los Angeles:
In July, G4 sponsored an art competition, asking amateurs and pros alike to come up with their best masterpiece based on Fatso and his song. After selecting 18 winners, the network turned the works over to Kitten Rescue, who’s auctioning them on eBay this month to raise money for their animal rescue efforts. Ranging from New Yorker-inspired covers to Warhol-esque shots, the works of art are definitely unique – and adorable!
