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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Teppy: Yes. eta: Although I am not obligated to sell after syncing, your other points are valid.

Even if the price drops a lot, I'll still probably sell them, as the exchange rate is so volatile. Some investments are like gambling, and I don't feel like gambling with that much money.

Speaking of coins, I discovered a big can of 'wheat' pennies from my Mom that I thought were ordinary coins I could turn in at a Coinstar machine. Now I have to find somewhere near here where I can take them, because they're worth 3-4 cents each.

If you find any 1909 S VDB ones, can I have them?

eta: They're worth around $1000.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Theo, the website is crazy, but the Yelp reviews are good! And it's local: [link]

WTF -- PBS is going to run Downton and Sherlock together in January. [link]

Ha! If only. No, just on the same night.

Speaking of Pacific Rim (We were, right?), that guy who does Honest Movie Trailers finally did Pacific Rim: [link]

It's pretty awesome. And not wrong.

I have my doubts about them -- early on, I offered to work on their website for barter and they were downright insulting. I'm also not sure that they're a =legal= pawnshop.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Apparently I would rather *read* Unfuck Your Habitat than actually unfuck my habitat. I am made of lazybones and slothful organs.

Okay, I'm going to go wash the dishes (which consist of 3 bowls, 2 plates, and the crockpot insert from last night's chili; it should take me less than 5 minutes, which is why I keep ignoring it). And then change the sheets.

I really need this new job to start, man.
