I hate to break it to you, oh impotent one, but you're not the big bad anymore, you're not even the kind of naughty.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, pandas, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

In the least surprising coming out since Ellen, or maybe Rosie, Ricky Martin has come out: [link]

It's a surprise to me. Not that he's gay, of course, but I figured he'd go to his grave like Liberace, with everyone knowing but no actual public acknowledgment.

Punishingly Intricate

Hey Jesse, one of the judges was Mary (?) from Ace of Cakes.

It was Mary Smith actually. Man there were some GREAT cookies up in that mix.

My work pet peeve is people telling me today who I should get to answer a question that I submitted in a document almost 2 months ago when the document needs to be delivered today by COB. And emailing that person and getting no response. Whatever.

Documents are where they need to be and I'm drinking a beer!

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Also awesome!

I am so crazy. Somehow I'm on a mailing list for medical/health studies, and I just got one about an eating study that I would TOTALLY DO if I hadn't already paid for the CSA for the summer. You get paid $1900! And they tell you what to eat for like 5 months, but hey, I could use some new ideas.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Dag, the notes for each Babbage and Lovelace comic are as funny as the comic. Not so much in the witty/funny way, as the "holy shit that visual joke was based on a real thing."

For example:

Did Charles Babbage actually design an error pop-up for the Analytical Engine that said ‘WRONG’? Come on I couldn’t make up something that funny in a MILLION YEARS!

As well as:

-The punchline to the cheese story is, in fact, a chart.

Both of which link to the source material.

How the hell is Elton in the closet?

Apparently not. Who the hell is Chance Crawford?
