No idea man.

It will break your brain. I think it broke Chuck's brain. It's just a malapropism festival.

I found it! "Eleanor"

This reminds me of a Chuck Palahniuk short story that broke my brain.

The amount of fireworks currently going off is absurd. 5 minutes to midnight, and then all hell breaks loose.

Happy Taiwanese New Year, y'all. 新年快樂！

I'm so drawn to these old cobbled together places even though there is so much high tech modernity surrounding them. I like that contrast that you get in Taiwan. There's a certain charm to it.

I've been teaching 1st grade students for the last 2 weeks. It's been a good 6 or 7 years since I've taught this age group, but man, they're such a joy.

This is the one.

I took this a month ago. Am I Badder Bunny?
