We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

Hivemind! Quick!! Will a decaf teabag have enough tannin to help a tooth socket stop bleeding? And what else is recommended?

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

For kids who knock out teeth, you're supposed to put the tooth in milk to preserve it on the way to the ER. Dunno if adult teeth can be put back though.

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

My work PC is still running Windows XP.

Me too. The people who sold us our PCs refused to support Vista, so we got the computers with XP. Since there's no easy update from XP to Win7, we haven't done that upgrade yet.

No, this is for a tooth that's been removed. And I'm finding that caffeinated is better.

Wet teabag from regular black tea like Lipton's is all my dentists have ever recommended. You have to bite on it a while; it's like putting pressure on a wound.

Oh, we're also running WinXP, but supposedly upgrading later this year. Supposedly.

There's something very odd going on in my hometown:

Booms -- and the mystery behind them -- unsettle Wisconsin town

With a population of about 4,600 people and located just east of the middle of Wisconsin, Clintonville is small enough and far enough away from anything else that it takes something really loud to shake up the town.

But that's literally what's been happening since Sunday night. Loud booming noises have shattered the air and rattled the ground in parts of the town, wrenching many residents out of their sleep. And no amount of investigation has determined the cause, city administrator Lisa Kuss said in a telephone interview.

“We’ve checked everywhere,” Kuss said. "We checked the dam, the landfill. We’ve consulted with the military. There is nothing going on. We’ve checked with local businesses and there’s nothing there. There’s no blasting. We’ve checked mining, quarries and pits. Nothing.”

The mystery booms began Sunday around 9 p.m. and ran to about 3 a.m., affecting mainly the northeast quadrant of the city, Kuss said. But the sound and vibrations were felt in many other parts of the city, sending people from their beds outdoors into the dark -- sometimes in their pajamas.

WTF? Also, I was not in Clintonville when this happened.

That's, uh, a little unsettling.

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

if anyone here saw any ads for the Grammys, they have heard Adele

Could not tell you when the Grammys were, so there's that.

Everyone is very surprised to see me at the office. I feel like I've done my due diligence, and I want to go back home now.
