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

Maybe the Kung Fu Bear can take out the Taekwondo Monkey.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

The Oatmeal goes all billytea

Wow, that is one sad existence.

I checked Wikipedia to make sure he wasn't exaggerating or something.

He wasn't. Damn.

Because The Boy and I are often a-social losers, one Friday night we were reading some article online that was a slideshow of the most fucked-up animals, and the anglerfish was included. We have since incorporated references to the anglerfish into as many conversations as possible.

Me: "Why are you hugging me like a leech?"
Him: "I want to be your anglerfish!"
Me: "I do not want to wear your gonads! Get away!"

t edit You can perhaps see that we're not so much a-social as it is that our behavior makes people avoid us. Rightly so.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I almost always have a song stuck in my head, with varying levels of time and annoyance.

Me too.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

It really is the kind of mating ritual that makes the planet Koozebane seem plausible.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I think I usually have a song in my head.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Me, too. Seems like I just rotate among a collection of earworms, currently featuring Lady Gaga, Kesha, and the Wicked soundtrack. Also and inexplicably, the other day I had "Rise and shine and give God the glory, glory" stuck in my head.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

and the Wicked soundtrack

I am seeing Wicked tonight! So we'll see if any of those songs get stuck in my head.

Well, I listened to the soundtrack nonstop for a few weeks after I saw it. But yes, I think several of them are very catchy. I'll be interested to see what you think of it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I love that this is a sentence we all understand! Oh internet, don't ever change.
