eBay is useless. I tried searching for a lighter, and all it had was 13,749 matches.
It is a pretty solid amount of matches at least. we probably need to call smokey in on that one.

Are you nekkid because all the matches are raising the temperature, of do you have a "thing" for anthropomorphic bears?eBay is useless. I tried searching for a lighter, and all it had was 13,749 matches.It is a pretty solid amount of matches at least. we probably need to call smokey in on that one.
Ah you forgot option number 3 I accidentally set my cloths on fire with the matches.

No, I'm pretty sure that I smell better than he does.If you ignore looks, money, fame, success, skill, and intelligence, then there's really no difference between me and George Clooney.Personal hygiene?
That would still be a difference sir!

I told my Mom that my new girlfriend was mostly deaf, so she should speak loudly and slowly. Told my new girlfriend that my Mom was mentally handicapped. Then I put them in a room together and watched the show.

Is it bad that I'm already thinking about calling in sick next week so I don't have to deal with the 5 (5!!!) little league teams that are booked at my hotel? Of course, the group sales lady is pleased with herself for booking that many rooms, but the manager is pissed for a couple of reasons. First, that's way too many a$&+&%!s and their a!#!~@! kids. Secondly, because of the film fest in town next week, we could almost certainly have sold all those rooms at more than twice the rate, so we're losing money.
5!!! little league teams? man I would just call in dead. Ofcourse I have our local festival next week which is like the biggest even we have all year. People come from hundreds of miles for it. Its ridiculous. Looks like we both get to suffer.

I know I've said a lot of bad things about cats, but there is one thing I like about them. They don't hate you because of your ethnicity, religion, sexuality, gender, appearance, or politics. They hate you because they are a cat. So at least their hatred is honest and pure.
Unless, of course, you are allergic to cats. Then they don't hate you at all and want nothing more than to cuddle with you all damn day long.
I think I heard somewhere that cats just see you as another bigger cat. while dogs see you as something else. I can't verify that information at all.

It's a busy time for us right now. Yesterday and today were Mom's Weekend at the university. Next week is the film fest. Then it's the marathon. Then I think we have an off week, maybe? And then it's graduation for the university. So, yeah, busy.Is it bad that I'm already thinking about calling in sick next week so I don't have to deal with the 5 (5!!!) little league teams that are booked at my hotel?

Yeah I'm look at full tom F$%^ery until the fall. Unless of course I get this new job. You know the one I applied for in January. I emailed her and she said HR is still processing. which is kind of funny but sad. I really have to wonder what they do when someone quits unexpectedly and it takes them 5 months to hire someone. On the plus side however I'm pretty sure I must be one of the top picks cause usually they let me know pretty quickly If I don't have the job.

What bad things did you say about cats again?
Would you like to retract those statements?

I'll prove it to you: *ahem* "The square of the length of the hypotenuse of a right triangle is equal to the sum of the squares of the other two sides. In other words, A^2 + B^2 = pi*r^2."
Thank you.
Wasn't pi*r^2 something to do with area of circle?

So yesterday I had a panicked email from another teacher at my school who was upset because Hermione, who is in her class, had told her that "Mama got a new job at Comic Con". And had told another teacher as well. And so the rumor was that I was quitting but hadn't told anyone, and since I'm head teacher, site director, etc...
What I *wanted* to say was, "Don't worry; the day I have finally had enough with the soul-crushing poverty, ostracization by the rest of the parents community because they don't trust the boss, and constantly being judged by *everyone*, I'll let you know. Personally."
But I didn't.

Salted fish is often provide for Icelandic Horses, in winter time on Iceland, as a protein and mineral/salt supplement.
Its litterally just large tubs of salted herring that are put into their pens, and from what I've seen, they seem to munch them down quite happily ^^.| 2 people marked this as a favorite. |
So, NobodysWife, Shiro, and I went off to see Ready Player One last night. After pans both here and from Impus Major, I expected to be woefully unimpressed.
Instead, it was an unabashedly goofy tour through my childhood. The sheer number of game, toy, and movie references targeted at those of us who were children of the 70s was overwhelming. The in-game scenes were chaotic and goofy and borderline epileptic-inducing, but it all worked for me.
Yes, the out-of-game stuff was all painfully stupid. Beyond painfully stupid. "The screenwriter needs this to happen and these people to behave in this way so they do," stupid.
In spite of all that, all three of us had a really good time, really enjoyed the movie, and it was Shiro's second time and he said he saw all kinds of stuff he hadn't seen the first time.
I'm giving it 2 beers, because you need a little buzz to get through the inexplicable stupidity of the real world scenes, but otherwise we found it a solid movie.
DISCLAIMER: Neither NobodysWife nor I have read the book. Shiro has, and says it's better than the movie but the movie was fine, but we all know that Shiro has no taste.

There something mesmerizing about the sheer belly-aching, inflated egos, vigorous finger-wagging, glaring entitlement, haughty patronising, feeble pleading, snobbish derision, constant teeth-grinding and passive-aggressive sniping of the Play-test forums (ie the perpetual noise-machine).
It's basically a micro-cosmos of the everyday world of conflicting desires, opinions and, dare I say, political philosophies.
Now who woulda thunk that :P

From the reviews I've read, this is actually the problem.
The basic complaint I've seen from multiple articles is "World is saved by kid with encyclopedic knowledge of White Male Demographic targeted pop culture ephemera of the 70s, 80s, and 90s, while basically acting as if everything outside of 'White Male Demographic targeted pop cultural ephemera' of those eras basically didn't exist".

Discovered earlier on this week that Actual Lady Longears (Diamond Edition) is Ashanti, which I think is very cool indeed.you are just learning her name now?
It's the tribe/clan/ethnic group her folks belong to - not referenced in her name at all.

Looking back at that era, I'm finding it hard to see how it's any less problematic when we don't ignore the other groups. That entire era was just a terrible period for entertainment if you didn't enjoy white male-targeted media. I mean, some of the stuff that was empowering for women and minorities back then would be extremely sexist and racist by today's standards.
I might have missed a couple rare gems here or there. But I can see why someone would basically throw their hands up and decide it would be less problematic to just focus on the one group that had it good.
