Somebody I might be about to unfollow on tumblr just posted this, and all I want to do is respond that salt is not a plant.
Ben: I didn't ask for any of this. I just want to be normal. Gronx: I wanted to be an underwear model. We play the hand we're dealt.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Because books.
She's full of shit anyway. A nice rare piece of filet mignon tastes delicious completely naked.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I never really liked the taste of meat that much, but that's just stupid. (I'd eat some meat when I was a kid, but I was just as happy with other stuff. The only steak I ever liked was at a really fancy Argentinian restaurant, where it cost something like $50 in 1993. Never liked hamburgers, either.)

I was just about to say. *Good* meat tastes fantastic without any plants (or salt).

It's so stupid! Sigh. The blogger is probably 12 years old and I should cut slack.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
An interesting article on Slate about oxygen: [link] The one that surprised me: without an oxidized layer, metals would spontaneously weld to one another.

Counterpoint: RAGE-inspiring article. [link] The world's most expensive cities. There were a few Australian cities, unsurprisingly (though not Melbourne). The ragey part, however, is Canberra's entry, which they illustrated with the frakking Sydney Harbour Bridge.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
It's too late now, but I'm nervous that my boss played a joke on me, causing me to play hookie from work.
I forgot to double check our office holiday calendar on Friday, and everyone I said goodbye to I simply said "See you next Week, have a happy Easter", so I didn't have the opportunity to hear "See you *Tuesday*, dingbat, not Monday.".
Boss texted me yesterday to say happy Easter, and don't forget to not go into work on Monday. After being disappointed that The High Line Cat Festival didn't actually happen, now I'm worried (sort of) that everyone was at work laughing at me today.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
Timelies all!
No April Fools jokes played on me, which is perfectly fine with me.
