Nice pet monkeys you’ve got there

Yep, I have a friend who pickles watermelon rind. It’s delicious. I mean, it tastes like pickles and the texture is similar to cucumbers.

It’s only been twelve weeks

I’m so sorry for both of your losses. I wish I could tell you that it gets easier but so far, one year on, it hasn’t. I suppose the corollary of them being your best friend is that one day, all too soon, you’re saying goodbye to your best friend. I hope you have nice memories together to cherish. (Also I adopted another little guy in need before I was emotionally ready, and that ended up being the best decision.)

I remember the Bank of America Tower going up in NYC as they were being bailed out. That’s our building.

It’s all the more (mildly) infuriating that it’s happening while trying to buy tickets for a local punk band and not a big act like The Sellouts.

I have really high hopes that Ladybird picks up the slack

May the shittiest company lose (before both being blasted into the sun)

That’s called McFusion

Nuh-uh, you’re stupid.

(Chat, rewrite my rebuttal.)

All right, these are some pretty cool Jeeps.

The horror I felt at reading this, and not in a sci-fi horror way. In a “watching Black Mirror from three seasons ago and realizing this will happen next year” kind of way.

I hate to make such a sweeping generalization (but here goes!), but many of the Jeep drivers I’ve encountered on the road have already brought me to the same conclusion.
