That's too bad about Dada—he could be pretty damn funny. Any idea which thread that was?

I'd forego replying to this, but then I'd just be feeling intellectually superior for not taking the bait. You see the bind I'm in.

The only thing that sucked about the TBT concert I saw last year was the hippies who sat for the whole show but then fucking sauntered to the floor during "Wait So Long" (the last encore), their heads nodding, their David Brent-ish assfaces nodding as if to say "oh yeeaaah, this is what I've been waiting for!" I…

I saw the Avett Brothers last summer at a folk festival, and I was really unimpressed by the new material. It didn't help that they compared their new material to Blood on the Tracks and Desire. The new stuff was really rangy—I don't know how else to put it.

If we ever meet in person to exchange scratch 'n' sniff stickers, Pants, remind me to do my impression of me in the Galapagos Islands, getting gang raped by a council of giant turtles.

Aww, you make me sad, Pops. I tried to be nice and self-deprecating by calling myself out on being passive aggressive for you, but it just falls on deaf ears with you.

Ha, that's funny—when I saw "Beer O'clock", I wondered if that was you. Some accounts, like the Taco Bell Bell, are very obviously someone's extra account.

We need Someone's Attractive Cousin here to increase our avatar synergy quotient.

Agreed. Also, a 20-year-old might be nice to look at, like a painting, but there's no part of me that would want to have, like, an intimate talk? With a 20-year-old? So consequently I have no desire to have sex with them? Because I'd want to stick my goddamn fingers in my eyes and pull them out like grapes impaled…

Totally agree, though this doesn't come close to The National's glorious rendition of "Graceless" on the Colbert Report. Trouble Will Find Me was probably my favorite album of 2013.

TV critishishm ish a laddah!

If I had copied and pasted then I wouldn't get to imply, passive-aggressively, that you should have read the full thread before commenting, as your comment just echoed something another person had written.

It's just you and me now, Pants. Let me get the light. *ignites flamethrower* So what have you learned from your travels as Drinky Crow, Asian Bastard, Cooking With Hannibal, Too Much Tuna and Dark Penguin? Do you comment any differently, depending on the handle? Are you now experimenting with a brash new second…

Ashes to ashes, funk to funky
We know Ottawa's a junk heap

I was pretty new at it and wasn't sure what we were officially supposed to do in those situations. It was a good paying job and I was about 25 years old with a wife and son to support, so I didn't want to make waves. I asked about it and was told it was a judgment call that I could make. By the time I decided to…

I wouldn't have done anything because, like you say, it could be totally innocuous (e.g. daddy won't let me play field hockey anymore if he sees how banged up I am). The fact that she said it out loud suggests it was more likely innocuous than not, unless she was really young.

Because it's shrivelled and dessicated like a gherkin?

He's farting what we're all thinking!

Hey, she's righ*has heart attack, sees visions of flocks of Dave Thomas' playing little harps, one of whom is the other Dave Thomas, who offers him a smoke and a stubby beer because in the afterlife he has to play Doug McKenzie forever*

As an angry child, I always read their little stamp as "The Comics Code "A" Authority", and I'd think to myself, how many goddamn authorities can this industry support?
