So...what if I have the CD of Superunknown that I bought in '94, but I don't actually remember the purchase?

Because some of you need a refresher: One man: Son of a bitch. Multiple men, same mother: Sons of a bitch. Multiple men, different mothers: Sons of bitches! Bumpuses!

Somehow I ended up on the mailing list for a Masonic Lodge in one of the rural bits of the UK. If you think these people are the illuminati and part of some grand conspiracy to run the world, you're going to be extremely disappointed in the ever so dull reality.

Except for the part where time stamping everything in UTC and displaying local is a long ago solved problem.

It's not even smooth. I finally saw one in the wild a couple weeks ago. I was behind it at a stop light. The slight curve in the road after the light gave me a shallow viewing angle and the panels have ripples in them. It's kind of hilarious just how bad the quality is on them.

What's the point of even having cops if they can't shoot people in altered mental states without consequences?

We have engineers (actual engineers, with advanced degrees in electrical engineering) building hardware and using tensorflow for RF modeling. I was unaware it had any other use. What are the AI weenies using it for?

The wonders of the Soviet Bloc are what the cultists following Felonious Shitzinpants think they want, because they're positive they'll never be the ones being carved up while still breathing. They will still be screaming about owning the libs while being filetted, so let's not do that.

Felix sat through the band’s entire new album, and a few of the radio hits, impatient for them to play the old school stuff. Then he heard the familiar bass line start, feeling the rumble deep down in his belly. Finally, it was time to get into the mosh pit and fuck some shit up.

As the parent of an SABK who played the trumpet (jazz), French Horn (symphonic), and mellophone (marching), it was hilarious when he referred to the dorkestra. It was my duty as the middle aged Gen X skate punk I am to inform him that they were all dorks.

Just a weird tangent, but I work with a guy named Damian, and I have to remind myself that he's older than the movie by almost a decade.

Ma'am, you're a bona fide movie star. You have more cool by default than the rest of us combined. Just because you're not flying the Cocaine Express doesn't mean you aren't cool.

I hate seeing articles that paint GMU like this. GMU is one of the most diverse and inclusive schools in the country. And then, there's GMU law, and it just can't stop being fucking awful.

You can be punk any way you want. You don't have to fill your face with piercings, or shave your head, or wear all black all the time. Punk is about who you are, not what you look like.

I have gone over this image from top to bottom and side to side with a straight edge. There's not a single arc anywhere in this image. If this is one of those bullshit 3D magic eye puzzles, it can go die in a fire. For those of us with only one eye they are impossible to ever see.

I don't believe I've ever used the term ball to refer to fucking. That's Boomer slang. Gen X just fucks, screws, and bangs.

Were they fucking though? If so, you should've recorded that. There are some weird ass people out there, (I don't know who they are, but I know they exist) and they will pay actual money for bee porn. This is The Internet, after all.

I was just curious where people have decided that building more housing might be an answer to the lack of housing.

Out of curiosity, what MSA is this? (I could spend time tracking your whereabouts down, but that seems rude and stalkerish and I really don't need the level of detail that would likely provide.)

You survived growing up in front of a camera and came out the other side relatively okay. That's one of the most amazing talents out there. Considering what the entertainment industry does to most of the kids who go through it, you are talented beyond measure.

Also, just to fuck with people today, I stared at the eclipse with my left eye sans glasses. Most of the people in my daily life are unaware I'm blind in that eye.

I was at work in a commercial tower in Arlington (just like today,) sigh. And as soon as it was apparent what had just happened every building in DC Metro more than a few stories high was emptied as none of them were designed for earthquakes and it was unclear what damage there might be.
