My dad has mentioned this multiple times in the past twenty-four hours.  I have a feeling Sunday is going to be Pacific Rim, followed by this.  I think I need a bigger keg.

@davidkordahl:disqus Well, I technically did only half-read it, but after listening to the author describe it for forty minutes on the train to her boyfriend, I feel like I know it intimately.

@Patrick_Batman:disqus Yes, I've been meaning to read Geisha: A Life.  I read Golden's book in high school, when  I was only just learning about cultural appropriation and fetishization, and liked it, but then I was like, "Wait, this is written by a Jewish man in Manhattan," and then the film featured almost…

@avclub-e3f5ab7f02122f95b801e13e2c586d6a:disqus Well, knowing how little the bookstore actually makes off textbooks, I know where it goes on our end, but no, no clue what the publishers spend all that green on.  I imagine way better stuff than the Otter Pop shots I buy after assholes yell at me.

@avclub-011d0b4fe6835bb3d37ef4e0ea713de6:disqus I tend to stay away from TI because it seems kind of impenetrable, but perhaps I should give it a shot.  My sister is a seamstress, so I suppose she could alter clothing if I asked.  At the moment, all the size fluctuation depresses me, so I stick to t-shirts and Target…

@avclub-011d0b4fe6835bb3d37ef4e0ea713de6:disqus Most definitely.  I've got kind of broad hips and shoulders, which can be frustrating.  Women's sizes are all over the place, and it makes no sense that I wear a four in some places and a ten in others.  I did manage to get a BR Mad Men dress that's very Joan-esque and…

As long as it doesn't include random Cop Out or Hawaii Five-O jokes, it can't possibly be worse than the worst Supernatural fanfic I half-read.

I have been trying to avoid eBay lately.  Either I spend too much, or I get outbid by fifty cents on Blue Velvet memorabilia.

Ha, nope. I'm currently at around nine.  I miss the good old days of being paid ten dollars an hour to sit in a Public Storage office and read the New York Times.

When all I ate was ramen, they fit me well, but it's getting harder to squeeze into cigarette pants now that I occasionally eat pizza.

This article makes Arcade Fire sound like a teenage fanfic writer who adds an author's note about how they won't post the new chapter of their poorly-edited, self-insert Supernatural story unless they get X number of reviews.

@avclub-c1fd95299ad8d022093c50740184a3be:disqus The lesser and more urban Portland State, actually.

I really hope Disney included a young black man for the spirited white people to guide in the ways of extreme conservativism.

This just reminds me of the obscene amounts of money I've spent on Banana Republic's Mad Men line.  And by obscene, I mean not nearly as much as someone who makes more than ten dollars an hour.

It's a place where I, personally, profit from the exorbitant prices publishers assign to textbooks.  At least that's what students seem to think, and then I laugh/cry when I take the bus home in the evening.

Such is a morning without work.

@avclub-30016cd5b9045be8de99ad5f1cbfd9af:disqus My gaming history is limited to Pokémon and some karaoke games, but I'm sure if I had experience with RPGS, I'd like the film more.  I'm a big reader myself, and, similarly, I liked Möbius Dick more than some of my friends.

I look forward to GOB protesting DOMA in D.C. and mistaking actual policemen for Hot Cops.  His pleas for them to entertain the crowd, ultimately resulting in him trying to unvelcro their uniforms, will get him on the news as a belligerent, horny homosexual.

@avclub-30016cd5b9045be8de99ad5f1cbfd9af:disqus I really disliked it, but friends who are into tabletop gaming said it's hilarious.  I guess it is significant because you find out the Professor fathered one of Mom's sons.

I guess it makes sense that the job "Chipotle DJ" exists, but I always thought that job was held by whichever minimum wage employee plugged their iPhone into the speakers.  Our bookstore should really get a DJ too.  I only play the Del-Aires, Rick Ross, and the Talking Heads, depending on my mood.
