What is even happening?

Finally, the important news we all need: The difference between "assclown" and "asshat", explained.

I honestly thought asshat might have been coined here, before reading that.

Thank god. I can finally sleep well at night.

And maybe by Teppy.

From the article Tom Scola linked [link]

The OED identifies the Jan. 4, 2002, Usenet post "You're an asshat too" as the word's first known inscription in written English, making the newsgroup rec.sport.paintball sort of like asshat's own Chauvet Cave.

I live to drop tags.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

"Just create a style guide that everyone adheres to."

This seems akin to my job where we create templates for posters, presentations and online classes. No one adheres to anything!

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

That can't be right. That 70's Show used the term all the time and it started in 1998. Or did they always phrase it as "you're going to be wearing your ass for a hat"?

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Yes, the presenter mentioned that it happens in graphic design too, with lovingly selected colors and fonts that everyone proceeds to ignore.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

I know this was from, like, nine million days ago, but I still think the most common definition I've seen over the last few years of Millennial is 1981 to 1996, or, as I insist on calling it, from Chris Evans to Tom Holland.

Crap. Meant to go get a flu shot today. I checked the weather, since it's supposed to rain tomorrow. Apparently it's supposed to rain for the next...week.

Also, Monday is going to be 45 degrees? What the fuck?

It is 42° here and my heat isn't on yet. The landlord seems to think it is, but his thoughts are not keeping me warm.

Because books.

As a Supernatural fan, I'm disappointed "assbutt" wasn't included in the ass- variation conversation. Sniff.

Teppy, I forgot to say congratulations to Tim on the new job because I suck at remembering things lately! So congratulations to Tim!

Also, Monday is going to be 45 degrees? What the fuck?

It was maybe 60 here at a high today, and sunny and windy with leaves blowing, and I'm. so. very. happy.

We flipped the furnace on this evening. And the a/c was on as recently as Tuesday. Ohio weather = bonkers.

I plugged in the heated cat bed for Murderbiscuit, and he may never get out of it again.
