Okay, um, I'm lost. Uh, I'm angry, and I'm armed, so if you two have something that you need to work out --

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Wow, flea. My friend's mom was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor 20-30 years ago and is still alive and pretty much unimpaired, much to her and her doctors' surprise. Uncertainty is right.

My car and Pile-o-Mulch can coexist on my driveway without blocking the sidewalk, so that's good.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Oh man, flea, that's terrible.

Wikipedia says bulkie rolls are not hard rolls, FWIW.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I haven't been in here in a while. Did our Israeli Buffista's checked in? Because of the shooting in Tel Aviv?

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!

Wow flea, I cannot imagine. Kind of amazing and heroic, her attitude

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

That's terrible, flea.

Oh man, flea, that's so sad.

I feel like I've been hearing about too many young people with brain tumours lately. (Or youngish)

quester, Shir tweeted today.

I'm sorry, flea.

Flea, I'm sorry. I hope she finds something like the NPR piece today.

So, from the beginning of the work bullshit problems over the past 6 weeks we've been telling the database folk: it's the db. Consistently the steps that are epically slow. They kept saying, no no no, see, normal response. when they get received. FINALLY got them to put in monitors for a real live event that indicates a likely intermittent hardware failure that's blocking connections, on the db side.Testing the theory first thing in the am. But FUCK THEM for refusing to look closer until now. The rest of us were willing to own up to maybe it was our part, but them? No, of course not.

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

How have none of these things become hot hipster trends and swept the nation?

Give it six months - an upstate-NY-themed cafe just opened down the street from me called Buffalo's Famous. They have hot wings and garbage plates and probably some of the other things on your list.

Flea, what awful news.
