Ari Shapiro just retweeted me. Amazing! I should write to famous people more often.
And don't you ever stand for that sort of thing. Someone ever tries to kill you, you try to kill 'em right back! ... You got the right same as anyone to live and try to kill people.

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
You know, a lot of people say that Election Day should be a holiday, so more people can vote. I think the day after Election Day should also be a holiday, which would allow the nation to get drunk Tuesday night.

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

That reminds me, I'm all out of wine at home. I should fix that.

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

Hmm. If your logic holds, making election day a holiday would also allow the nation to get drunk Monday night. I'm not sure I want to see beside whom your nation wakes up the next day.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Is Nate Silver a witch?
Dag, I read that as "Is Nate Silver a SWITCH?" and I thought, "Whoa* there; that's pretty dang personal!"
*Relatedly, when did people start spelling "whoa" as "woah"? It drives me batshit insane. Spell your slangy words right people!

RIGHT?!?
...I am perhaps a little over-caffeinated and ready to stab both our always-crashing server AND my boss.
But my point still stands: "whoa," not "woah." There is no red squiggly line under "whoa," but there damn sure is one under "woah." OBEY THE RED SQUIGGLY LINE.
