I think if you opened a bar built around that theme in a recently gentrified part of the city you'd do very well indeed.

I had a dream a few nights ago. Some new townhouses were being built, but they weren't selling, despite their spectacular mountain views. In the dream, I thought that perhaps they weren't selling because of the builder's name: The Fiasco Brothers Construction Company.
I wonder how and why my subconscious came up with that. Anyway, it was good for a laugh.

Time in a Bottle always sounds to me like it was written by a teary drunken serial killer who is too old to hunt anymore.

Coincidentally, Ted Cruz's dad used to sing "Time in a Bottle" to his son at bedtime to help him get to sleep.

She never said they were human. Just that he had a parent.
Why, for all we know, they could have been some otherworldly amoeba-like life form that reproduces asexually by division. Or a large collective of the tiny warriors from the miniature Underground City beneath the Desert Flower Bowling Alley and Arcade Fun Complex.

I had to actually go look up the song, so serial killer is the only interpretation I've had for it. Put it on the wedding playlist with "Every Breath You Take."

All I can think is that redditor who writes the poems that end with "And Timmy f!@~ing died."

When my son was little I did, too. I didn't know the words to any lullabies at all, so I sang him songs by Jim Croce, Grand Funk Railroad, The Eagles, Three Dog Night, Credence Clearwater Revival, and so on.

I learned today that Worcestershire sauce is labeled as 'Salsa Inglesa" for Spanish language packaging.
I want to add a bubble to the label that reads something like, "Made with 100% English people!"

I'm sure I can find you a focus group for testing such a variant. It will have to be organically sourced, of course. Only the finest harvest of Englishmen will do.

You're out of luck, in that case. Englishfolk are silicon-based life forms.

I told my husband I was making vegan tacos for dinner (sauteed winter squash, beans, corn, avocado, red pepper and purple onion).
Except the big iron pot was still on the stove with this morning's bacon grease still in it, so I cooked the veggies in that.
I tried.

My daughter talked me into watching Avatar: The Last Airbender (the anime,not the movie). I'll say one thing for the Fire Kingdom: they've totally got the steampunk thing nailed.
Just wait until you get to the Earth Kingdom.
And the Water Tribe has a sort of Atlantisean Icepunk thing going as well.

(As our daughter runs down a list of cookie recipes in the cookbook her grandparents gave her for her birthday...)
WW: "You know, Hermione, just because the book has the recipe doesn't mean it's a good idea to use it."
Me: "Yeah... I mean, the Anarchist's Cookbook has a recipe for napalm."
Hermione (ignoring us): "...here's one for zucchini bread..."
Me: "Nevermind. That's why we need napalm."
