Clearly one of us.

I laughed.

I have been trying for years to get traction on my book about a young Asian boy whose family travels to Europe during the middle ages to squire for a knight and learn about European culture. Kind of like Marco Polo in reverse. Anyway, he has adventures and learns all about chivalry and the importance of friendship.…

My flag has one star.

As someone who lives in an area where this is a non-issue, that is really messed up. Is that illegal? It ought to be illegal.

Lemmy has no patience for those bongos.

Rita Jeptoo is a doper and has no business being the Scout archetype. Perhaps Scott Jurek the ultramarathon legend might be a better option.

What, on their local BBS or something? Samus has been confirmed as a woman since the original Metroid. Unless people thought that was a skinny pixelated Fabio running around in a women’s bikini.

-We take the lead, invade and occupy, as in Iraq and Afghanistan. It’s a disaster.

A big part of craps is the social experience and when you bet “don’t pass” and everyone else is betting “pass” it puts your goals against theirs so it’s more of a loner thing. Still, people do it. Just don’t cheer too loud when…

I loved SWG. As soon as I heard I could create a character whose profession was dancer, I went whole-hog. it was just too absurd. I had a character named Babu Twinkletoes, who was a master dancer, entertainer, and tailor and I put on dancing and light shows in a tiny cantina in Moenia on Naboo singing Star Wars-themed…

I bought one of these for my mother. I’m still buying her bandwidth by the GB, but it’s unclear whether I’m saving much by doing it that way over unlimited. Throttling kind of sucks, but I guess you do what you have to do. No doubt they will leave speeds high for the by-the-GB users so that they use them up faster and…

Car parts, bottles and cutlery?

You don’t fuck with Uncle Joe.
