Storm blasts Northeast with heavy snows

Now, Storm. That's not very nice.

If your name was Orlando, would you be all dorky and nickname yourself "Orli," or would you be COOL and nickname yourself "LANDO!" It's not even a choice! Come on, it's frickin' LANDO!

I'm just sayin'.

"I was in Honours English too.

And I observe that your brain is a bundle of randomly firing neurons held together with fraying string and being poked repeatedly with an electric cattle prod.

The future of English literature is bleak, my friends and fellow minions."

It's a Republican stunt that's nearly 35 years old: when your Administration is tanking, the economy is going down faster than Linda Tripp on a reporter, you're stuck in a war that makes military contractors ecstatic but infuriates the civilized world, or you're just seen as an ineffectual wimp with the personality of seaweed, there's no more forgiving contingent than the Trekkies.

meowse, on the travails of having to write to low wordcounts:

"They want 350 words, so that someone with the attention span of an ADD weasel on crack can actually finish the page before jumping up to throw furniture across the room, or possibly score some crystal meth."

mylaptopisevil: The one thing I don't get is why it is okay to eat plant life but eating "OMG ANIMAL LIFE!!!1!!1!oneone!1!11!" is so wrong.
Tomatos have feelings too, you bastards!

tviokh: That actually is valid logic though; why is it NOT okay to kill cute fuzzies for food, but it IS okay to decimate plant life for the same thing?
Life is life is life, and no matter what you eat, you're killing something else to feed yourself.

Don't even get me started on the mass slaughter of insects via motorized vehicles, exterminators, fly swatters and shoes...seriously, what makes them less deserving of life than, say, a cow pig or chicken?

Dammit, just sit naked in a room and don't do anything.
Good god, even if you die, your death will bring about the death of all sorts of beneficial bacteria that lives inside of you!

Long story short: You're going to kill something no matter how you live so just fucking deal with it.

Note for those who might miss it: I don't really believe what I just spouted above, but using their logic...WTF?

I could call my biography "fun with exploding fat molecules"

Does anyone else ever watch Boston Public? Because I have to admit, I have a serious crush on Fyvush Finkel. And his character.

But his character is not named Fyvush. No points for him.

Just read this whole post/comments.

It's a guinea pig flamewar!

Watching LotR, my mum informed me that they should make a gay version- "there'd be a huge market for it, and it's not like they'd have to change it a lot anyway". She spent the rest of the movie pairing everyone off and extolling the virtues of Gimli/Gandalf. But then she went back to planning the downfall of organised religion via killer bees and trebuchets, which is normal.

re: a spider on the monitor

I'm letting her hang out there for a while because a) I do not kill spiders unless they are trying to eat my head, and b) I won't touch her for fear that she will eat my head.

Have you ever had one of those mornings where you wake up to seal calls and the crash of nuclear explosions going off in your bed?

....me neither.

============

My digestive tract needs to adjust to gravity every morning before I can eat?! This machine is defective! Maybe God will give me a refund...

...though he'll probably just charge me to have it fixed.
