My aunt was a programmer back in the 80s and wound up re-entering the workforce in the late 90s doing Y2K compliance. She said they all knew back in the 80s that two-digit years would cause the program to crash once the year turned over to 00, but memory was too tight to spare additional digits, and it seemed absurd…

Seriously, this opportunistic, greedy warmonger can go straight to Hell. However much I love Stephen Colbert, I’m not even gonna watch any promo interviews for Bolton’s ghostwritten ‘I knew but did nothing’ petty excuse of a memoir.

If there was a god (there isn’t), this living shit monster would be hanging by his balls fifty feet over Times Square right now. I wonder how many times Colbert wanted to leap through the screen and just beat him to death.

I was 17 when I saw it. I can pinpoint the year because I had dropped out of high school and there was this girl... Anyway, I did not get it, though I bluffed my way through a conversation about it with her on the way home. That was 40 years ago. I don’t have any big plans for this weekend, so maybe I’ll try again.

For those looking for The Heartbreak Kid, it’s pretty much completely unavailable legally (even on DVD), but the full movie is on Youtube:

Remind me again how in the hell Elizabeth Warren lost to him?

Or invite Trump.

And “get it back”? It’s been available to watch, buy, rent etc. for ages. Maybe he’s thinking of Song of the South, a movie he’s far more likely to have seen.

Dog whistle? That's a fuckin fog horn.
