The more I hear about this movie, the more I think I’ll just stay home and re-read the book.
I first read that as The Chemical Brothers, and I was all “kewl!” Then I actually read it and was all “who?” I’m torn.

I don’t know how to ride a bike, seriously it’s true, I was scared when I was a kid because everybody kept telling me that once I got bruised, I’ll learn how to ride it, and I don’t wanna get bruised. It’s embarrassing.
Don’t be embarrassed. I can’t ride a bike either. I took a bad fall when I was trying to learn as a kid, and was too scared to try again. It’s on my To...

Okay, so I have read and reread Vonnegut for years, but somehow, never made it to Bluebeard. But, based on a comment from Cookieface, I grabbed it.
Um, whoa. Damn. It was good. I completely understand now.
Read it.
Oh yeah. We all have that barn inside us, huh?
God, I hope so.
Whoa.

So, my firm just cut 10% of our staff and I’m still here. I consider it a minor miracle given the environment around here lately.
But, I’m not complaining.
10% for your office, or for the whole firm? (I had it in my head your firm was multiurban, sorry if I got that wrong). Still, sheesh. Hate to be dodging those bullets.
Nope, 10% domestically (cuts in Boston, NY,...

No one ever really answers these (passive-aggressive much, Six?) but anyway, here goes:
I’ve been making it a point to watch weird-ass movies, lately. You may (or may not) have recalled that last week-end was particularly stimulating, with some of the more… visceral entries from Japan’s film canon gracing my nightmares for days afterward. Well, Tumblr, I...

I can wear them… but I will also be 40 in a few months.
Keep? Or toss??
40 means nothing. Keep ‘em.
some math for you fellows.
jesuismilena:
should + have = should’ve
should of ≠ should’ve
Get it straight, people! They’re not even pronounced the same…
Does ‘should of’ even make sense? I’m trying, but can’t use it in a sentence.
(Could be the cold meds mind you…)
Just Wondering...

Do you keep the water running when you brush your teeth?
I used to. Now I have to make a concious decision to turn it off.

Confused about Muslims? Give one a call →

Ever wonder what the Quran has to say about terrorism? Why Muslim women wear veils? What Islam teaches about Jesus?

Recently I was smoking a joint with a friend and the television, on mute, was showing the local news. On the screen were a bunch of puppies, adorable little fuckers, frolicking as they do. I knew, though, that if we turned up the volume I’d hear some talking head using their so serious so sombre voice to tell us why these puppies are a danger to us, or are in danger, or...
