Having just read the book, does Wil Wheaton chuckle at the self-reference in the book?

Good Writing: “I watched all the Star Trek Series”

There is little of the plot—or its entirety—that can’t be condensed to a Hollywood elevator pitch. “What if The Matrix was also The Last Starfighter?”

An offering from Billy Shakes, it ain’t, but it was a fun read.

I would suggest listening to the Audio Book version as read by Wil Wheaton. I’m not usually a fan of audio books, but listening to them while working is a necessity when your work could be dangerous given the distraction of holding a book or tablet. That…

I’m exactly Cline’s age and played with 90% of the toys/games he vomited up in that tome, and I was overcome with self-loathing around the book’s 4th list of entertainment detritus. It was like 459 pointless Family Guy references, but without laughs. Or exactly like 459 pointless Family Guy references.

Congrats! And YES. I would rather have a tablespoon of Ben & Jerry’s Americone Dream than a full pint of Halo Top.

Perfect lead gif is perfect.

Might I suggest a weekly farmer’s market?

But that neighborhood? You can add a digit comfortably! Pay it off by labor day.

Upper middle class? Have you priced Bay Area real estate lately?

For SF, if there was a spot that was just $3/day I’d jump on it like a horny Jack Russel Terrier.

That’s kinda like suing themselves, given that the HOA is small. Also, fuck HOAs.

Love this!! It’s one way in and one way out. It’s also one of the only gated communities in SF and has a 24/7 guard posted at the entrance. This could get hilariously messy.

“and up until 1948, it was racially segregated. That is, a few decades ago, Tina and Michael couldn’t buy a house on Presidio Terrace.”

I would think homeowners might also be able to sue the Homeowner’s Association for negligence?

So I am a jerk for making myself comfortable? we both paid a similar amount for our seats, the seats recline, I choose to use that option. I think making others feel bad about reclining is bad on you.

At 6'-6", I notice. No ha.

I was always surprised at the hate.

Off topic: I loved Battlestar Galactica’s ending.

My understanding was that Palin was pushed on him by the Republican leadership. If so, you can blame him for not doing his due diligence in vetting her, or for being weak enough that he allowed the party to pick his VP without openly complaining (which would have forced the party’s hand).
