    Actual flyer we found on the street:

    Quote Quoting Donald Glover
    I was actually just reading about Matt Damon and he’s like, ‘There’s a culture of outrage.’ I’m like, ‘Well, they have a reason to be outraged.’ I think it’s a lot of dudes just being scared. They’re like, ‘What if I did something and I didn’t realize it?’ I’m like, ‘Deal with it.’

    Don't think this is a coincidence...

    Also probably not a coincidence that the casting can't be found on the current version of the page.

    Yes, that certainly appears to be the case.

    ARG. Didn't know what that stood for, until tonight. I did watch the induction videos. Not much too them, but then, I didn't (can't) actually go there. They don't have my information

    Next week I'm having the final touches put on the Cthulhu tattoo on my calf.

    I'm already planning my next tattoo. I'm thinking of having a half-sleeve done, on my right arm.

    For those who don't know/haven't seen, I have the Superman symbol on my right shoulder, and the Batman symbol on my left.

    I want to have the half sleeve intertwined/coming out of the Superman symbol. I don't have any designs yet, but the word I'm hooked on is "infection". I want it to be a design that spreads down my arm like an infection from the Superman symbol.

    But then it'll look like it says, "Sinfection."

    And some may think it's a sinus issue.

    Lest you think an arch sense of humor is a recent development in humanity, here's a passage from the last book I edited. From a small-town area, of course:

    ~~~

    Little boys weren’t the only ones enamored of the game. Baseball dominated picnics, reunions and other social gatherings, spurring would-be athletes to possibly unwise contests. The Gazette published a flurry of insulting challenges from the Litchfield Leans, the Seville Fats and the Solid Men of Medina.

    One, from the Fats to the Leans, published July 21, 1905, went something like this:

    "Ho, you skinny, umpire-buying, dude-rigged, bony sons of emaciation, who call yourselves Knights of the Imperial Order of Leans. Be it known to you by these present that the Gentlemen of Weight refuse to acknowledge defeat in last Monday’s game, justice and truth being submerged under your clandestine and wicked pre-arrangement with the umpire; therefore, we dare and challenge you to put on your dude clothes again next Wednesday, bring on your martial band, bats and conceit, and meet us in fair and honorable baseball warfare…July 26 at Chippewa Lake…Now, you umpire-fixing, skinny common disturbers, do you dare?"

    W.C. Smith, captain of the Leans, replied: “You bet we do. Get your old hulks of fat out of the hospital and be ready. We will be there."

    ~~~

    Now, in my opinion, the response might be one of the best out-of-left-field barbs I've ever read. Heretofore in the book, there was no indication given of any serious illnesses affecting the "weighted gentlemen." None of them was in the hospital for anything. That means that the skinny team captain simply presumed that the heavies were in the hospital for no other reason than that they were fat. That, my friends, is fucking hysterical.

    Stupid Managers.

    I've been working on this Safety Binder for a couple weeks. It's complete and ready to go, but I have to let others take credit for it all, otherwise it'll look bad for the store.

    But, they did nothing. And it'd never have gotten done if I didn't finish it. Yet, who'd be getting in trouble if I only did my side? Me as well, because I wouldn't be a "team player."

    Are you serious?

    Ugh.

    Sounds like the typical shit. Although, my boss is awesome sauce. And she hasn't had any mood swings so far despite her increasing pregnancy.

    Q. Is "groping" allowed?

    A. No, dude, you just can't start groping people. Try to imagine that you had a normal upbringing for a minute - would you want people indiscriminately groping you? We'll answer that for you if you're having trouble - no, you would not. At the Exotic Erotic Ball, the operative word is respect. If you keep in mind that lots of people are feeling sexy and aroused, then you will realize that it is OK to ask someone if you can touch. Yes - it is OK to ask. But do respect the answer. If it's not the answer you wanted, then ask someone else. Remember - if you grope, you leave. But - if it is consensual, then ... well ... then it's not really groping, it's fondling.
    Lame.

    What's the point then?
    Sure why not?

    There's stuff like that every couple of months here in Ottawa.

    It can't be that special if they have it here.

    The best part is I'm going in free with a press pass. Gives me an excuse to talk to all the porn stars. Flirting in the form of an interview.
