Sluttiest and Weirdest Store-Bought Halloween Costumes for 2012

Are Jem and the Holograms making a comeback?

(Relatedly, in high school chemistry [so, uh, 26 years ago, HOLY CRAP], one of my friends made a periodic table joke about Jem and the Halogens, and that is how I always think of Jem and her band, ever since then. I mean that when I asked the question above, the first thing I typed was "Jem and the Halogens," and it looked totally normal to me.)

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

You ever spend a lot of time and energy pulling something together, and badgering people for information--just to realize that nobody actually cares if you have updated all that information in a much cleaner and more accurate database?

Yeah. Or editing something. No one cares if the commas are in the right place.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Or they care TOO much -- don't get me started on the woman who gave me a lecture about how their department doesn't use the serial comma, when the stuff they had given me was riddled with them. RIDDLED.

The people who are supposed to maintain this information don't. I get better data from fansites than I do from our own staff. It's ridiculous.

Also, GO As! Yay!

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

With me it's usually people not remembering or caring that I have access to cleaner, quicker and more accurate databases,

I'm sorry, crazy Russian dude, my company is not required to maintain support for the software we issued in 2000. And it won't install on your Win 7 machine anyway.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Yeah. It's the Sukkot version of the mitzvah tanks. I avoid them -- I don't need the guilt trip.
