On Thursday night, I started feeling kind of...
…when it continued into Sunday morning, I decided I needed to do something about it. I needed to eat healthier … and stop thinking Burger King is an acceptable lunch destination.
I don’t want to make a big deal out of it, like it’s one of those ridiculous cleanses or whatever (btw, I can’t see the word “cleanse” without thinking of you all shitting out...
JOYENGEL IS KILLING IT THIS MORNING
Everyone else just give up the Internet today, because joyengel has owned all the wit in the land.
(I, on the other hand, am not … hence the triple typo that’s now been fixed!)

cognitivedissonance:
His latest interview with The New York Times is fantastic. An excerpt:
Interviewer: You’ve long argued for the decriminalization of marijuana. Do you smoke weed?
Barney Frank: No.
Interviewer: Why not?
Barney Frank: Why do you ask a question, then act surprised when I give an answer? Do you think I lie to people?
Interviewer: I thought you might...

Old Man Winter Finally Showed Up
I have 2 bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths, a balcony, a garage parking space, a 5 minute walk from Whole Foods and the T, a landlord who just wants to be left alone, who hasn’t raised the rent since we moved in 3 years ago (from a price that was already comically low), who doesn’t care what we do to the apartment …
… but the heat frequently goes out.
Eh, still worth it.

Something to remember for all my bike friends
A day on, not a day off
Came home from an errand to find Lucy had eaten a half a bag of chocolate chips (legit semisweet baking chocolate chips) … called the vet, who advised inducing vomiting (and said she’d be fine). Took Lucy for a walk after giving her some hydrogen peroxide … walked three blocks with her yakking up chocolate chips the whole way. I barely kept myself from losing it right alongside...

After watching this entire video, then perusing the attached website, I’m no longer feeling guilty about ordering 7 boxes of Girl Scout Cookies. I may also make a sizeable donation to the organization. Promotes a comprehensive, safe, and scientific sex education curriculum in partnership with Planned Parenthood AND welcomes transgender youth? BEST. ORGANIZATION. EVER.
you DO NOT fuck with an author on a deadline
I doubt Nancy Kerrigan has sold a single copy of her 2002 instructional manual Artistry on Ice: Figure Skating Skills and Style in several months, maybe even years. And now I’ve bought TWO in the last week.
There’s a package thief in my building who’s been stealing since before Christmas. At least 8 boxes have gone missing that we know about (people post signs in the lobby about...
