Brown Milk Solids and Sugar

Guess what it's for. :-)

Chocolate? Fudge? (Probably fudge)

EDIT: Neither of which are a particularly good substitute for clothing.

Brownies.

I don't like riddles.

I do love brownies, though.

Kids can be so cruel.

Impus Major saw the new Ghostbusters yesterday. His six-word review? "It's bad. It's really, really, bad."

Bacon Boy's dad, who'd taken the group, refused to accept money from any of them. "You shouldn't have to pay to have that traumatic memory etched into your brain."

Apparently, he liked it even less than Impus Major.

I'd been considering going to see it, considering it's getting favorable reviews on Rotten Tomatoes. However, I trust Impus Major's judgement when it comes to bad movies (Lord only knows we've shown him enough), so I think I'll give it a pass after all.

It seems to be a love it or hate it movie, interestingly enough, much like the original.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I thought the original was okay. I neither loved nor hated it.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

I may have seen both movies in the theater, at least three times, each.

I may or may not be able to recite every line in the first two Ghostbusters movies.

I'll go see it, but I'll probably wait for the budget cinema. :-)

I can't wait for Suicide Squad personally.

My wife and I will be seeing Ghostbusters this weekend. I'm going in with the hope that it will be entertaining.

I can't wait for Rogue One.

I want that movie so bad, I would make out with Alton Brown, Joss Whedon and Mark Zuckerberg if it meant an advance screening for me (and the Baron).

That's intense!

I notice that you wouldn't actually get a Facebook account, though...

Speaking of QA, I don't understand why more game companies don't pay kids $5/hour (or even nothing at all) to have teens and pre-teens playtest their games. I know I'd hire both my kids in a heartbeat!

The kids are in the living room, playing Defiance as I work. Impus Minor got one of the standard, "Can you figure out the controls?" quests to get from point A to point B. He wasn't guarding anything. They didn't indicate a path. Just, "Get from here to there." Not even a time limit.

Being a typical 12-year-old tasked with something so trivial, he decided to "fun it up" by jumping the whole way. And of course missed a jump and tumbled down a flight of stairs. All in good fun, and all relatively harmless, except, "Quest FAILED!"

WTF?!?!?!

The kids are in absolute stitches. Apparently you can get from point A to point B by any mode of transportation, OTHER than falling down the stairs!

They are now trying to re-do the quest in a tank. Indoors. In a wooden house. Should be more entertainment to come...

My kids figured out if you walk fast at the highest point when you're on a fountain in Lego Indiana Jones you fall flat on your face.

They've never made it past the fountain. Ever. :-)

Sadly, the coffee maker has passed on, three days from retirement. :-/

Seriously, just... don't. Please, I'm begging you, don't.

Of course, that only makes me want to see it more.

It's one of those days where it feels like I'm running to stand still.

Looks around suspiciously for the film crew working on a U2 video, makes sure John Mellencamp crew is still filming at the fair grounds.

It's just like this

Maybe it's time i switched to leather and wrap around shades...

edit: That's, uh, that's some cowboy hat he's got there...

On the plus side, it would seem the coffee maker was mostly dead.

It would seem to be improving, though I'm still certain we'll need a new one come payday (this one is programmable too *sniff*)

You want a Captain Hasslehoff avatar.

Oh, yes you do.

But then I gotta deal with tape or adhesive. Honestly, I'm better off making a road trip to Thegreenonesarethebestmangamer's neighborhood and hitting as many "wellness clinics" I can find.

Our coffee maker is a Carbuncle, all good. Spent most of the afternoon and four bucks for vinegar on it though, so I guess it wins.

It's a good thing I didn't call in, someone else did, and suddenly Captain Yesterday is the hero for just showing up.

Heroism by default.

The best part about when people are freaking out at a toy store due to unforseen staff shortages, they try not to show it, but they do, I feel like Captain America in the elevator. :-)

Going to be taking another level of hippie, soon. I'm finishing the little bit of dairy in the house and then making full-blown-vegan attempt number...six? I think it's six.

My blood pressure and triglycerides somehow managed to shoot up to borderline high, which they haven't been since going vegetarian. Apparently my 30s hate me. I do know the five other times I went vegan (about 3 months on average per attempt, but once I lasted 6 months), my skin cleared up, my BP and cholesterol never even were slightly above average, and I lost weight without working out, so... I mean, there's that to look forward to.

Summer knocked me out of my regular walk/jog routine. Stupid f&!%ing summer. I had slimmed from categorically obese to categorically overweight and was working towards "normal" when triple digit temperatures and/or 75+% humidity came around. Two months later and now I can barely walk the same track I used to jog and was working up towards being able to run.

Oh well...it's not how many times you fail the save, it's how many rezzes you get.

You can do it, the world needs more hippies. :-)

Does that mean you're going to start calling yourself Theorganicfairtradegreenteagamer. :-)

Oh, hey. That's my $10. Thanks for finding it for me. I totally lost it last time I was there for Sporkstaking.

Sporkstaking? Are... are you telling me all our major athletes are vampires. Dude! This is just what I've been training for!

grabs a bundle of stakes, nightvision goggles, and an IPod.

Mildred, hold my calls, I'm off to give Aaron Rodgers his discount double staking.

Nah. It's just when I come into your house at night and take all your sporks. Hence, Sporks-taking. Related nights are Forksnabbing, Spoonsgrifting, Knivesleaving, and the oft overlooked Spatulalicking.

It's all good, I've been sneaking into your house for some Spatulaspooning. :-)


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Jokes on you. My spatulas are coated with a special coating to subtly poison anyone trying to spoon them. Don't be surprised when you start dropping blue, sparkly poos in the toilet.

I'm just relieved I'm not turning into a Twilight vampire, I'm not sure I can deal with being blandly emotional.

Then I gotta learn what BFF stands for, which hopefully stands for *fingers crossed* Big F+@+ing Frankenstein.

BFF: Banana Flingling Flunkies.

I got home from work 10 minutes ago. For some reason, I agreed to go work in Alameda at 8 AM tomorrow with corporate types flitting around everywhere. I have no idea what I'm doing when I get there, and Outer Sunset San Francisco to Alameda is one hell of a clopen.


1 person marked this as a favorite.

Well, depends if the corporate types are being restless. Then you might have to show them some new tech to make them worship you like a god. Say, a fax, or a ballpoint pen.

You might check out the vegetarian & vegan recipes at Serious Eats. I've made the "vegan bacon" and it's pretty darn tasty.
