God, that sounds so fun right now… eating psilocybin mushrooms and climbing school flagpoles. What could go wrong?

I don't understand the Smash Bros. love. Someone brought it over, and it seemed like just pushing buttons as fast as possible while trying to figure out what the hell was going on. Maybe it grows on you, or something.

I would occasionally make an entire track of the high-jump ramps, get bored and go ride my actual bike.

Gay-onetta made me laugh out loud… not sure why.

I don't know how, but I haven't seen the HHS guide before. This is actually kind of helpful… thanks!

Is it maybe like a regional thing? Now that you mention it, I don't know if I'm right on that. I don't get out much…

It's funny how that stuff evolves. 'E-mail' was short for 'electronic mail,' so a hyphen made sense, at first. But if you forget what it stood for in the beginning, you start to wonder why you're putting in this hyphen all the time. Like people used to write 'wriggle,' when it was pronounced 'wiggle.' So fuck it, why…

*puts on nerd hat* 'Web site' was in the AP Style Guide until a few years back, if I recall… they realized the rest of the world was going with 'website' and updated it. Government documents have their own rules, though… I work a lot with OSHA/safety regs, and I had to write a separate style guide for our stuff just…

Yeah, Mother's Milk and then BSSM were pretty formative for me at the time. I tried to hang on, but gave up around Californiacation. It's amazing what can happen when a band REALLY overstays its welcome/passes its cultural expiration date.

I am 100% behind this idea, oh my god make it happen right now. I'm a little bit lukewarm on Capaldi as the Doctor anyway. I am in no way lukewarm on Hayley Atwell.

It's his first novel, so it's kind of clumsy. There's worse books out there, though.

Awkward Eisenberg's pressing calculated is cuteness… cute shark hat Nellie fingers bring nut chain bangers.

Probably not exactly the place for this, but I'm really disappointed in Gilette for constantly arguing against any kind of gun control. The Bullshit episode they did on it was… well, bullshit. He was on the Nightly Show last week, and while he was trying to be rational, I just can't respect him anymore.

Have you read Codex, also by Grossman? I got in between the first and second books, and man, he has a thing for young male protagonists with weird insecurities. To me, the main kid in that book is even more douchey than Quentin, and that's saying something.

Mmmm, nice and muddy. Still sounds better than the crappy four-track "demos" me and my friends used to make.

Yeah, I hesitated to even comment, because I'm pretty ignorant of the history of the subject. It's not surprising that it fits into a tradition. I was a little kid in the late 70s, and I remember actually going with my great grandmother to see an Al Jolson/mammy sendup at the Starlight Theater in Kansas City. Probably…

I know you're kidding, and I'm white so take that for what it's worth, but it does seem kind of… I don't know. 'Look! It's like that thing you've seen a million times, but REALLY black! You know, with the singing and dancing! BLACK!' There kind of a weird 70's thing there where seeing black people doing stuff was…

Oh, the vest. There's so much going on there, but you're right, the vest is the really setting the whole thing off.

What's going on with that woman on the left? I kind of wish someone would smack that 'look! I'm super silly!' look off her face. Maybe it's the hat…

Also, this news blows. Another peripheral part of my childhood, broken off and dissolved into oblivion…
