Yeah, it's kind of amazing that the 1996 season changed nothing. (I was thrown out of a Quickie Mart in 1996 when I picked up the Outside magazine with the article that became Into Thin Air and stood there reading it for, like, 2 hours.)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Mom, Dad, I Have Something To Tell You. I'm Black.
Is it harder to be black or to be gay? Wanda Sykes has an opinion on that.

Oh, here's that picture of all the climbers on Everest: [link]

Oh, and there was a climber who was determined to bring his bicycle to the summit. (He wasn't allowed to.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I actually like to think of Iron Man as somewhere between a tequila sunrise and a dusty nail, and it amuses me highly.
Climbing Everest will probably be a challenge that bests me, but it does look like it's losing its cachet in more ways than one--I mean, the fact that you can "just" pay someone to take you has to start to mean that paying someone to take you doesn't mean as much...but evidently I'm not used to the psychology of buying myself achievements.
I see there's an ad saying "check this website out if you live a 'maybe life'--if you have more than 15 migraine days per month". It both makes me want to cry and smash the television. I recently read some posts on a migraine forum and it was simultaneously many conflicting things, but I now know for sure that I'm petty enough to resent people not named me who are cured of chronic attacks. I'm sure if I knew them, I could be happy, but just as random non-ita !s. I'm bitter as all fuck.

sumi, that's great, but I'm kind of appalled that it took until 2012. I mean, how long have women been competing with men in Olympic equestrian events? How long has it been since women basically took over the horse world?

No brenda! Someone has to have sunshine! I can't do it...you have to go on without me...
Does anyone know if [link] really doesn't have any partisan agendas? I thought it was an interesting premise, in their approach to codifying complex responses. I don't know if it works, but it piqued my interest.
And I can't work out if my attitude towards the United Nations is nostalgia or based in anything. They were just *the shit* while I was little. It seemed unconscionable that the world could live in any sort of unity without them. But that's entirely based on propaganda lapped up by a six year old. Confusing.
