Because books.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
Thanks, Hil!

Tim is sitting next to me playing Doge 2048 right now. I think he may move on to Twin Peaks 2048, though.

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
Uh oh, I didn't need to know about that game. How addicting!

Okay, I'm confused -- what if you get more than 2048? I got 3300 and ran out of spaces on the board.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
You got all my on and running-ness, Zen!
Apparently so! I'm terribly sorry.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I'm just glad to know where it went.

2048 isn't the score; you have to see the original game, which uses numbers, to see the progression: [link] Two 2s combine to become 4; two 4s become 8; two 8s become 16, etc., etc.
It's hard as hell just to get a 1024 tile (I think I've only done that once), and two 1024s become 2048, which I've never gotten.

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
Despite feeling like hammered shit, I got a burst of energy and did dishes, organized a few things, worked on loading the bookcases/adjusting shelves, gathering up garbage, and now I have baseball on my tv. My lungs have joined in the "ok, vacation was nice but now you have to pay" club.
I only have 8 boxes of bookshelf stuff left to unpack! CJ has a bunch to do in his room - I swear he is just opening boxes and dumping them out and yet he still has more boxes. I still have plenty to organize but my room, the kitchen, living room, and "office area" are pretty well functional.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I think the thing with Marshall saying only good things about his crappy job was meant to prepare all of us for how to talk about the HIMYM finale. So I'll just say, thank god that's done and I never have to watch another one ever.
