Sorry for the late reply — I used to live right by that Wendy's! And I once bought $13 worth of Burger King from that one on one of the most hungover days of my life (Absinthe + bar crawl) and ate it in one sitting. My hands swelled up from the sodium.

When you someone social justice warriors

Are you from Co. Kerry? That's a beautiful part of the world, there. I just got a Facebook "On This Day" notification from a vacation my wife and took I took there two years ago. I want to go back, really badly.

Glad I wasn't the only one.

Thanks, man! New job, busy on the weekends, not much time to post. I miss you silly fucks.

They're testing better than the Leather Daddy chips, which are just tanned hides and buckles.

It's about time we added obesity and hypertension to the gay agenda.

Gezundheit.

Haha. Looking at my work history, you'd think it would be "parking lot janitor at a major university." But it was actually "transactional lawyer for a nightmarishly shitty small firm in Seattle."

Hear, hear. I give POGs shit whenever I can, but when we get down to all seriousness, everyone supports mission accomplishment. And after getting hurt and having to work in S3 on deployment I respected them even more. Second worst job I ever had.

Random hot girl dance troupe (maybe professional cheerleaders? this was literally ten years ago, I barely remember) at FOB Sykes, outside of Tal Afar.

"My God, it's not just an article… it's a long-form thinkpiece. Run."

My wife drafted for her first Fantasy Football league at her work the other day (I was allowed to sit in as her consiglieri). At one point she said, "This guy Jay Cutler is still available!"

I, too, live in Seattle! I frequent Bauhaus in Ballard, sometimes the Caffe Fiore in Ballard, and Ballard Coffee Works (my least favorite of the three — among other things, their enthusiasm for hemp milk is a little too Seattle for me).

I've wondered that since season 2 of TWD, when Beth first gets exposed to our heroes and comes down with flu symptoms for a few days. Maybe she hadn't gotten the zombie flu yet, and that was her body's initial reaction to it.

Plenty of ranch, the universal condiment.

And such small portions!

Well, it's cheaper to hire carnies on bath salts to write your marketing campaigns.
