That mall wouldn’t depend on just Hawkins - it would draw people from all over.  

If I change that to “occasionally” or “sometimes” does that actually change anything about the point I was making? And what point are you trying to make? That’s it’s okay for cops to shoot innocent people only sometimes?

Construction workers don’t routinely shoot and kill innocent people, either. 

B. Obviously.

Did Rude Negro go somewhere?

I’m going to pick up some for dinner.

It’s not a financial decision, but thanks for jumping to that conclusion.

Sometimes that is literally the only appropriate response.

To be fair, New Orleans has had pretty dramatic street flooding from regular rain storms for decades.  A couple of times in the 70's I walked home in a couple of feet of flood water.  If we would forget to move our cars to higher ground (the neutral grounds/medians were best) they would flood and smell terrible for…

One of the Paranormal Activity movies had one the scariest scenes I’ve ever seen. In the middle of the night, the woman gets up and just stands over the bed staring at the guy. For countless minutes. (well, they were counted, I just forgot) Just standing there.  Yeesh. 

I had the same problem, but I stuck it out until the end. I did keep my eyes closed for a lot of it, though, so I really don’t have an opinion of the movie itself. 

I would have enjoyed the movie more if it hadn’t made me motion sick.  I actually had to close my eyes for a lot of it and I felt sick and headachy for the entire rest of the day.  

The universe continues its efforts to get me to sign up for CBS All Access, which I strongly do not want to do.

So did I. Now their encounter in the mall makes a lot more sense.

I did not know that Colin Hanks was Tom Hanks’ son, but his profile picture there looks just like him.  Never before have I noticed that. This blows my mind a lot more than the Robert Redford meme.

Jesus, that’s really weird.

Aren’t all attractions, at some level, objectification, though? People are attracted to manly forearms or nice asses before they have any idea of what the person attached to the the nice forearms and ass is like. It’s just something that people can’t really help.

My favorite recently-heard kitten story came from my co-worker. She adopted this tiny little siamese kitten who probably weighed 8 ounces at the most.  One morning my co-worker woke up to discover several of her shoes on her bed. The tiny cat managed to drag shoes that weigh more than she does all the way up onto the…

They really are.  

I know, right.  One second they’re peacefully sleeping in your lap and the next they have freaked the fucked out and escaped by climbing over your face, leaving you bleeding.  A startled cat is a dangerous cat.
