Parabens, irmรฃo!

Wish I could be there. I had no advance warning of my own promotion, so could not invite folks.

My back of the envelope calculation for me, between my first roommate situation in NYC and the last place I rented in the Bay Area was $666,000

I love this game.
Check pre-flop, flop a boat, all-in on the turn, and then...

Oooh, I pre-ordered it - do you think Green Apple has it yet?

Oh - I had them through work several years ago. Sounds like they've gotten even worse since then.

Itโ€™s surprising that you still canโ€™t code your own face, you have to use some halfassed app workaround.

Tell me again, how many years in prison was Aaron Swartz facing?

The narrower one's field of expertise, the more one believes it applies to all other fields.

I wonder where I'd be if my high school attempts at wushu hadn't given me shin splints.

(Probably not a jiu jitsu black belt, so... fair trade, I guess.)

You look amazing with it already, though. And swords are way cooler than rash guards. ๐Ÿ‘Šโš”๏ธ

2020 Mustang GT, in Shadow Black, seen in 3/4 view from the front driver's side, on a very sunny day. It's parked on the street.

I'm not sure I understand Cat Peer.

Does that mean she pees on cats? Or like a cat?

We'd all have stronger immune systems if they just installed garden hoses everywhere.

Did Wrath do something wrong, is he being punished by withholding a weird spelling for his name?

I read it as "Phurry" - which may have been an improvement, honestly.

Real genius is very rarely recognized in its time. Most of these folks would not know one if they saw one.

I skipped one, and when I had the chance to skip another, five years later, I turned it down. Iโ€™d strongly recommend against it for most kids whoโ€™d qualify.

Absolutely not.

I think golf courses should be like game reserves and we should be able to hunt the players.
