not your mom's socks.

Dearest Faux: it's spelled "f-i-l-m," not "f-l-i-m". No love, yours truly.

I missed breakfast this morning (in favor of doing my laundry instead, so I'd have something to wear to work), so I'm having a very early lunch in a few minutes. The cafeteria has italian sausage and peppers over pasta--I'll have them hold the pasta, but I might take the garlic breadstick and see if I can handle a bite or two.

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

Speaking of Fox, when was the last time we in the US have had a major news media outlet that constantly makes up the news in order to further a partisan agenda? Was it the yellow journalism of the 1890s?

Is it now that I confess that I've never seen Angry Birds? I mean, I know what it is in concept, but I've never actually seen the game.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I don't know about "making up," but partisan/ideological bias lasted long after that. The Chicago Tribune of the FDR era comes to mind.

But how will the Angry Birds get revenge against the pigs who stole their eggs if you don't play the game?

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

Noah showed me Angry Birds, I think. I don't get it.
