I like money better than people. People can so rarely be exchanged for goods and/or services!

Coding and Sleeping

It's just like partying now, except that all the dudes have goatees.

And jobs.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Sure, but will we even remember how to party like it's 1999 by then?

Clearly, we need to prepare a time capsule containing a raspberry beret, diamonds and pearls, and a little red corvette. (After some consideration, I decided that cream would be an inappropriate addition. As would the most beautiful girl in the world.)

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

Way back when, I once wanted to go for Halloween as a Prince song. Raspberry beret, diamonds and pearls, pink cashmere coat, peaches and cream, yadda yadda. Then I realised no one I would be partying with would get the joke. I need new friends.

I'm not going to my sister's wedding. She wants to play musical chairs, so everyone has to sit with someone they don't know at some point in the reception. She got up to go speak to someone new during this last one (to get an idea, she said, of how traditionally Hasidic the goings on were). So she missed the Thriller dance and the second line. Serves her right.

Hil, in a Hasidic wedding, is it cheating for the guys to peer through the curtain at the women dancing? People on both sides looked pissed when the inevitable crossovers happened and some guys went over the to the chick side, and some chicks started humping guys on the guy side, but no one seemed to think peeking was against the rules.

"already on the kiss-cam with Karl Marx"-

Lisah, do the junkie hookers have to notify that cafe chick? Or is the underground economy safe from intellectual-property disputes.

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

Apparently, it's a real product. In Japan.

With some sort of cat harness!

And now I need to steal this idea.

Appalling. I could never eat something like that.

Perhaps some pasta puttanesca instead?
