I made a deconstructed crab louis salad.  It was alright, but I decided that I really dislike pre-processed lump crab smell, which made it a bit of a turn off.

That's not fair.  Or nice.  My own particular rough brand of etiquette requires all laughing at people to be done discretely, off camera.

@avclub-1786aec3a614d40f1e566fde557a1799:disqus that is amazingly awesome.  If you need or want an incredibly snobby bunch of LA beer snobs to sample anything, I'm your donut.  

You gotta barrel age that shit.  Otherwise it's just jagged little shards of alcohol stabbing your innards.

Look at how he defines himself:

Buzzfeed had a handy little roundup. Or maybe it was huffpo.   Or Gawker.  One of those sites that likes shaming idiots on twitter. 

I was driving home yesterday and saw the following graffitied on the side of a construction site:  "James Gandolfini lives in our hearts."

I didn't believe that was a thing.

once upon a time, while on a dig in China, our fixer chased me around with a parasol, because I was getting too brown and that was not apparently, a good look for asian girls.

@avclub-04d524031f29c89d78cae864bd6f0de7:disqus two fainting couches, sir.  He was a pretty, pretty man before all the heroin.

It's sad.  Charlie Hunnam was so charming in Undeclared.

That looks like one of my friends from college.

Only during the week.  During the weekends it's all MDMA all the time.  Because they need to simulate feelings somehow.

I want it to be awesome because Jose Padilha is awesome.  He made a documentary about anthropologists interesting for chrissake!  The guy has skill.

@bjlanguid:disqus (sniffle) does that mean we can't be friends?

Catcher in the Rye was great the first time I read it as a precocious 10 year old (my aunt was an English major and gave me all her old text books and my parents didn't believe in censoring what I read).  By the time I had to read it again for school, I wanted to throw it against a wall.

Reasons to hate Hartford:  Hartford is the poorest capital city in the US, located in the richest state.  The nice, fancy part of Hartford *became it's own town* so it wouldn't have to subsidize the schools/services in Hartford proper which is predominantly black and Latino.   
I only ever went to Hartford to see stand…

Not a word.  Not one "money is tight this year, we'd love to be there if we could" or  "we got your invite, so sorry we can't make it."  Polite society is based on lying to each other every once in a while, you know?

I'm sure @avclub-1786aec3a614d40f1e566fde557a1799:disqus could provide a better list, but Green Flash, Ballast Point, Lost Abbey (if you're into sours and barrel aged beers) and Stone are all within an hour of each other.
