My cousin, probably the most educated and well-traveled person I ever met, once told me that in [some country??] there's a curse that goes, "May you study Basque for a year in Hell."

Thank you! It's just my iPhone, and I think it helps that I'm usually outside early in the morning before the sun is fully up.

If someone put a gun to my head and asked me to name my favorite song I would be like, Okay, okay, let's be cool here, let's lower the gun, we're just talking here, easy, easy, you don't need that, man; look at me, look at me, this is crazy, come on, think about this, we can fix this, it's all right

screenshot of the title image for an old children's show called Today's Special. There's a sign at the top that reads Today's Special but the word special has been covered up with the word textures. Below are two humans flanking two puppets.

*Ice-T voice

“The kids are calling it “Dry Brushing”. They’re using a brush with minimal paint and moisture to create a textured, scratchy, or diffused effect on a dry surface. They’re highlighting textures, and achieving a rustic or weathered look in various mediums. Twisted shit man”

I know Collingswood very well! I grew up in a boring (as far as I remember it as a teen!) little town called Sicklerville.

The scene in Office Space where the awful lady does a loathsome whiny baby voice and dramatically intones "Sounds like somebody's got a case of the Mondays." The main guy is standing next to her looking exasperated.
