I've had bad experiences with three hipster roommates. Though one was back 1999, so I guess he was a proto-hipster.
Jayne: Well... I don't like the idea of someone hearin' what I'm thinkin'. Inara: No one likes the idea of hearing what you're thinking.

smonster and I greatly enjoyed mocking the HDBs at the bar we went to when she was here.

Dear god those people were awful. By which I mean massively rude, inconsiderate of personal space, and the worst collection of dancers I have ever seen in one place at one time. That's not even counting the soit-dit fashion choices.

I think the universe is punishing me for deciding to skip the gym because I didn't feel good and I'd had A Day. The stank on the red line was so bad that I now have a migraine. To boot, or not to boot: that is the question.

Dana, I'm just sensitive b/c I was dating a female soldier around that time and heard a lot of horror stories about people lurking in gay bars and such to find out homosexuals. I personally feel like people are not being patient enough with Obama, given that it's only been a year. I understand that for gays in the military it feels very urgent.
My understanding is that expulsions have actually risen under DADT though. If it's a less toxic environment that's something. But not enough. (I'll have to see if I can dig up where I've seen that though.)

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

That's the impression I have gotten as well. It didn't work.

I just got to touch a plane engine (Cessna 150 series). I feel like squeeing like a 14 year old meeting musicians from a local band. It's so nifty! And I got to touch it! I'd say I'll never wash that hand again, but there was a gasket leak, so nsm. I'm not sure the simile tracks that far.
The engine reminds me of the engine in my first car--a 1976 VW Dasher.

Excellent, Calli!
Sometimes I can't tell if it is Loki bolting bunny-style up and down my stairs or the little girl next door running up and down hers in hard shoes. I think that says something about how noisy he is. (I really can't hear much from next door, usually. )
