Death is your art. You make it with your hands day after day. That final gasp, that look of peace. And part of you is desperate to know: What's it like? Where does it lead you? And now you see, that's the secret. Not the punch you didn't throw or the kicks you didn't land. She really wanted it. Every Slayer has a death wish. Even you.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

This is our freezer, and what is shocking about the picture is the fact that the 3rd shelf down actually has some open shelf space:

Mine wouldn't be so bad if it weren't for the vodka.

And the maple syrup.

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

Now I want to move to NY and start the stupid paleo diet just to up the amount of oestrogen associated with it.

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

Would you become a hipster?

Socks are a running theme throughout the series. They are used as symbols of freedom, redemption and love.

Aren't they heavily over-estimating the amount of actual meat in a hunter-gatherer diet, as well?

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

Conan was screwed by the prime-time Leno show from the start.

“New York is the only city in America where you can walk,” said Nassim Taleb

Spoken like one who has only been in NY and LA.

Would it be more irritating if I didn't? Because whatever is more irritating to the fundie paleos is what I want to do.

My freezer is...1 shrimp pattie in a much too big box, coco bread, 4 trays of ice, 2 ice cream maker bowls, multi-sized ice packs, bottle of vodka, assorted frozen fruit bits, pint of ice cream, nutmeg, pork chops, chicken stock, chicken thighs, vegetable stock, coffee.

It's mostly full, but once I finish that last patty there will be room for tequila.

I think so. Or you could pretend to be a hipster, and destroy NY Hipsterdom from within....

And I know people in LA who could walk everywhere and just don't want to.

Or you could pretend to be a hipster, and destroy NY Hipsterdom from within...

If I had the patience and tolerance of cold...

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I have a lot meat prepared and parceled out in my freezer. Probably 4 or 5 tuppers with pot roast, one with chili, some individual chicken breasts, some sausages... A couple of frozen dinners, a popsicle, bread and english muffins, blueberries, peas, green beans, I don't know what else.
