Flounder

Mmmm, Pop-Tarts.

Main Theme from Sonic Adventure 2: Battle

Does he even know you can do it in person instead of via the Internet?

The hottest ticket in town.

You love to see it!

the vindicated gate guard, the paper trail, and other cases of FAFO at work Last month you shared stories of the worst cases of FAFO (fuck around and find out) that you’ve seen at work. Here are 12 of the most satisfying. 1. The gate guard I was a gate guard at Menards for on...

It's FAFO storytime on Ask a Manager today and it's so satisfying.

I refuse to argue about completely meaningless preseason polls.

The UK is about to ban access to Wikipedia, just remember this bill was originally pitched as a means to protect kids from accessing porn.

I'm so glad you're excited, man. Best of wishes to you and the kids.

It appears to have all dropped in like 20 minutes on Jayski/Reddit.

At least he's getting a ride with Niece for the rest of the year? Still, mega ouch.

Superman is for everyone.

Also there's the "probably not going to be able to go to DragonCon again for quite awhile" problem.

Maaaaaan I miss cosplay but I'm really stuck on ideas for things these days that fall within my range of abilities (i.e. not being able to sew). Also there's the whole trans thing which is killing my confidence in it.

Got that too, of course.

Sentinels of the Multiverse hero card featuring The Scholar.

Flounder in boy mode cosplayng The Scholar from Sentinels of the Multiverse (and standing in front of the TARDIS).

Or a bathrobe. I once cosplayed the Scholar from Sentinels of the Multiverse (whose look is heavily based on The Dude) and got a lot of "nice Arthur Dent" comments despite my lack of towel.

Well, I might upgrade that guy from a mute to a block. What a baby.

In science fiction, so much of what is "classic" was essentially written for one man: John W. Campbell, the editor of the pre-eminent US SF magazine. Even the stuff published elsewhere, because it was often sent to him first. Think on what it means to have a whole genre filtered through one dude.

I was told I couldn't be a writer if I hadn't read Lord of the Rings. Important as Tolkein is, we've moved past the point of arbitrary tributes. I don't want to write the same fantasy as everyone else. I want to write my fantasy.

Robin Jarvis, Diana Wynne Jones and Terry Pratchett did me perfectly.

In an Uber from car service to work and the dude doesn’t have the A/C on and is driving kind of terrifyingly. And I haven’t had breakfast or caffeine yet because I woke up late. Not a good start to the morning.

Goddammit. I think one of my potatoes was bad. A couple of them taste off but not others.

Nothing like fresh corn.

Just finished making a chicken corn chowder for dinner and it tastes superb. A nice change from a couple cooking fails I’ve had recently.

Good news indeed.

My FOX station cut off IndyCar before victory lane. The hell?

In case this wasn’t clear: Will Power is still better than David Malukas. A lot better.

If Penske wants Malukas right now, open up that fourth car again. He’s good enough for it, just not good enough to replace any of the three there right now.

Great to see Power get a win. And what a season for Palou.

I’m very curious to see how he does on the ovals he’s driven before now that we’re at that point of the season.

Oh. I’ve had no caffeine since breakfast. No wonder I have a headache.

4 to go and SVG has an 8.5 second lead over Buescher.

Another master class.
