re: the little girl's hair.

There's something weirdly tied into chastity/innocence/purity with girls' hair, I've noticed. It's like "my little girl is no longer 'untouched' if we cut off her hair."

Of course, some people are just weird.

It looks like the weather is going to turn hateful tonight. Blech!

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

I have now reneged entirely on my previous position and I want one of those stick figure car stickers. Just one. To say I'm alone.

Okay, what I really want is a Batman sticker.

Won't you need a Robin sticker then?

Well, actually, it'll be a Batgirl sticker, and she doesn't need a Robin.

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

A Batgirl needs a Robin like a fish needs a bicycle....

So I kinda pointed out to Boss Man that New Guy wasn't here yet.

It was on topic, honest.

I heard about a building lately that may have become my favorite pointless building in the world, though it's really tragic in a way too.

It's the Ryugyong Hotel in North Korea or the Hotel of Doom. This is a 105 story building that was originally supposed to have 3,000 guest rooms and five rotating restaurants at the top . . . in North Korea apparently to serve the thriving tourist business. They stopped construction in 1992 because they ran out of money, and at the time the building was costing 2% of the country's GDP. But construction restarted in 2008 and is supposed to finish in 2012.

Picture of the building in the skyline, that city looks like a poured concrete mold.

Huh. I heard there was some structural flaw in the building that was preventing it from being completed.

It's North Korea, are they going to let a fatal structural flaw get in the way of completing it?
