Exactly. She wasn't interesting or smart, she was just hot as hell.

Story of my life.

OK, I've got to admit, I'm starting to find the Harambe thing funny. Like, I didn't think it was funny at first, and the jokes aren't really funny in and of themselves, but there's something weirdly amusing about people's absolute refusal to let it go.

Or maybe I'm just getting a Stockholm Syndrome effect from Johnnie's Facebook posts.

It's now post-funny, which makes it funny.

We are all Harambe.

It's gone beyond planking territory for me now, and has lasted longer. At least the Harlem Shake required some creativity.

These are being loaded onto B-52s and fucking up ISIS life right now...

I don't drink coffee, never have. Tastes nasty.

This may be an incorrect use of the word never

It just took me 60+ index cards to create 28 legible, one syllable word flashcards for my kindergartner.

Same. Except i've tasted it before so I could confirm I don't like it.

(I like the smell quite a bit. I wish I liked it. I try it every few years to no avail.)

Ha, good point. drank it once, never again, tastes nasty.

Jesus, quit much? If I were like you, I never would have had a second Genesee Light.

Hot bitter liquid - I don't like it. As near as I can tell, the coffee cabal hasn't missed my business...

My son has godawful handwriting. When he was in grade 1 or 2, I used to sit with him and work on it.

My handwriting was even worse.

My daugher is in 7th grade and her handwriting is terrible. They didn't teach it in school during the span she was in 1-3 grade, but now I think they have gone back to it. It's frustrating for everyone involved, because the only way she can be decent is to slow down so much it makes her angry.

Yeah, alcohol is one thing because at least you get a buzz. There are plenty of other options for caffeine intake.

They taught it when I was in school, but I hold my pen really weird both in grip and angle, like people watch me write and say "I didn't know you were left-handed" when I'm writing with my right hand. Something about that made cursive really tough so I tried to avoid it as much as possible until it stopped mattering. Since like college or whenever teachers stopped caring beyond "can I tell what word you mean there", I've basically written in my own shorthand where all lowercase letters are just waves behind the first semi-legible letter. I can do uppercase written out, but trying to make those lowercase flashcards was a real fucking challenge, like Billy Madison writing out the letter 'z'.

YEah, my version of handwriting is totally my own. Mishmash of cursive and non for sure.

I have no idea if this is legible to others or not.

I like when someone pees in my wontons at night.

Pretty close.

I like when swampers push in my wontons at night

(if you know what I mean)

I like when funyuns pile in my (random hieroglyphs) at night

أنا أحب عندما يتبول شخص في wontons بلدي ليلا

Looks a prescription

"Can't Hardly Wait" was just on the radio and if the movie came on TV right now, I'm pretty sure I'd watch it and still enjoy it.

I don't think that's anything to be embarrassed about. It's an entertaining (if light) movie.

While it lacks the studious exploration of artificiality of the American class system of the Pygmalion-esque She's All That or the intricate plotting and the dense, yet effortlessly authentic conversational tone of 10 Things I Hate About You, but I wouldn't call it "light", brian.

It was certainly a precursor to more serious explorations of class and social strata like Superbad.

So I just watched the "Aman-DUH" scene, and there is someone in the background wearing a short-sleeved mock turtleneck. That might have been more cringeworthy than the use of "fag" at the end of the clip.

That dick notebook remains top 5 hardest I've laughed in a movie theater.

What about the goggles vs. short sleeve mock turtleneck?

Pretty sure that's from Night Trap

i give...what does it actually say?

I like when swampers push in my walnuts at night.

... peak in my windows at night.

explain what you drew for "peak".

God dammit.
