The fact that Weekend Update’s only joke about that atrocious WSJ op-ed was to joke for the millionth time that Joe Biden is old is a sign this show needs some new writers.

I need to know what #11 and #12 are so I can filk “the twelve days of christmas”.

I was an adult before I ever heard of the thing about Advent calendars having chocolate. Ours were always just the “open the paper door, see a picture” type. I feel robbed. (I suppose nothing is stopping me from buying two dozen liqueur chocolates and DIYing it!)

I’ve got a lot of fond childhood memories of Andes mints, so I’m going with Dennis. I used to like to unfold one side of the wrapper so it’d look like a superhero cape for the chocolate.

I really do love Hawaii’s ABC stores.  You could roll off a plane naked and get everything for your whole vacation in there, including the luggage.  Plus beer and alcohol. 

Asking you to provide a list of things that would make good gifts for you and your husband is asking you to do the emotional labor of caring and being interested that your in-laws could, and don’t, do.

On the music front I think it just steamrolled. You had old school bands like Zeppelin that were into all sorts of mysticism stuff, mostly because they were just on shit tons of drugs, and then the emergence of heavy metal.

Inserting myself into this conversation to say that I lived in LA for three years and there were so many times where I felt like I was living in someone else’s body or having someone else’s lived experiences. Retreading some of those famous old establishments or even just walking through some of the neighborhoods felt …

What you’re describing may well have been a lateral temporal lobe epileptic (LTLE) event. I experience these and I even wrote about it in the comments section of this exact post a few years ago. The sensations you experienced (jamais vu, intense feelings of nostalgia) are key components of it. Check it out and see…

Ohhh, this one really bothered me! It’s like being “ridden,” as if you were a pack animal or a vessel for someone else’s psyche. Truly scary. Thanks for sharing it.

Also, the media has been pointing out that he’s obese every 15 minutes for the past 72 hours.  There’s no way Trump would consent to a plan that involved the media talking about how old and fat he was so often for days on end.

After I turned 30, 9pm is late.

Good take.

If you’re Dot is anywhere near your kitchen, I love it for timers -especially if you have multiple going.
