Difficult to pull off in my current time zone, but I can always make promises.

Great picks, though I may just be saying that because we'd get along well.

There's a book called "Apathy (and Other Small Victories)" by Paul Neilan.  I'm not quite as bad as the protagonist, but I did a lot of nodding, and laughing, while I read it.  Plus people steal salt shakers for me after they read it on my recommendation.

The world is a web, all things interconnected.  Whether one wants to go their own way, go along, or change the world, one has to navigate the web.  So, I  advise my nieces and nephews to learn where the sticky spots and alarm threads are, if only to avoid them.

I'm planning on moving to Portland this winter, and in anticipation I created a new OKCupid profile.  I didn't have much luck the last time I tried the site, but I was surprised by the interest this time around.  I've had more "visitors" in a week than my old profile had in a year.  I don't know if Portland just fits…

@avclub-b78501aaad511cb25326896139533cb9:disqus : I agree, a conception is almost always a possibility.  That is why I support safe and on-demand abortion rights for women.  That, as others have argued, should be the priority.  There is no palatable alternative, none that protects a woman's basic ownership of her own…

I don't think the idea is forcing women to have abortions.  Everyone is entitled to bodily autonomy.  I also don't think anyone outside the MRA message boards is suggesting that scenario four is in any way, ever, a common one.

T&A, Tailor, Soldier, Spy… great flick.

Whither The Cape?

I always crack up when watching the 2 Stupid Dogs episode where the big dog is punched by a mendicant, and the little dog laments, "You okay, buddy?  I wish they'd keep those USC graduates off the streets!"

Ada Lovelace was a popular nominee, if I recall correctly.  I prefer putting scientists and artists on money over politicians and monarchs.

But, like Ms. Fawcett, he had bitchin' hair.

I've been made fun of for drinking a martini. 
I was wearing a bow tie at the time, so you'd think that would have been the douchebag lightning rod, but no.  I think I told the guy he could have a man's glass like mine when he ordered something manlier than a Jaeger bomb.

Consarnit.

Wasn't Hollywood basically founded by unqualified, unprofessional hedonists with no respect for intellectual property rights?

I mean, me and Pippi Longstocking?  What would the children look like?

@avclub-5fdbaa11bd42c308322756f60f43785f:disqus : My favorite thing about Eunice is when the character sketch first circulated among the writers, and the instant consensus was,

"Some punk attacked me on the bridge.  Threw him over.  Great pickle loaf, honey."

"We don't need liquor to have fun.  Not when we have the Babylon 5 collectible card game!"

Weirdy… beans at, Weirdy? Beans at!  Weirdy beans at?
