Sooner or later, you're gonna want it. And the second — the second — that happens, you know I'll be there. I'll slip in, have myself a real good day.

Who is responsible for the chimp feeding the baby tiger on Good Things?

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

And it's completely boggling how many people are saying about both her and Mohawk Guy, "Fine, dress that way, but don't blame anyone else for blowing the job interview and being unemployed!" when the whole point of the article is that they are employed and their employers are perfectly content with them.

That's the part that REALLY amuses me. Reading comprehension, anonymous internet peoples! You can maybe haz, if you try rilly rilly hard!

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

Oh god, this online training module is going to be awesome. I can tell because the avatar just said I would learn to "maximize my zones of excellence."

I did kind of perversely like the one that called Jilli's wardrobe the kind of completely generic stuff anyone can pick up at Hot Topic.

Oooh, I missed that one! If that were the case, a lot of my babygoths would be happy. Also, that poster has obviously not been in a HT for ages, because they don't really have goth stuff anymore.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

that poster has obviously not been in a HT for ages, because they don't really have goth stuff anymore.

Isn't it mostly "Team Edward" and Invader Zim t-shirts?

(Proving that I, too, haven't been NEAR a Hot Topic in years.)

Neon. The last time I was in one (looking for tights), it was a lot of neon. Nary a skull-decorated goody to be seen.

Because books.

I'm not even sure I have zones of excellence to maximize.

Oh, that was me. There's also video!

Oh my good god. It's too much!

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

They should spin one off and call it "Goth Topic." Have a Halloween launch party with sugar skulls...witches on the bags, I'd shop there and I'm not really Gothic.

Sox, ask and ye shall receive.

Oh Jessica is my favorite.

Oooh, and I'm a semi-attractive attention whore!

(I swear I'm going to stop reading the comments. I just closed the window.)

I am amazed at how many people can't fathom someone dressing differently just to amuse themselves. I feel kind of sorry for them. Not a lot sorry, because obviously they're angry little trolls with no lives, but there's a mild sort of pity there.
