_J_ said...: History Channel is running a special on Drug use. It's terrific.; April 20, 2008 at 6:27 PM
Mike Lewis said...: "All I'm saying is if you wanna smoke pot, then be prepared to spend a lot of time laughing with your friends."; April 20, 2008 at 11:30 PM
_J_ said...: This is great.

Clinton campaign ad text:
It’s the toughest job in the world.
You need to be ready for anything -- especially now, with two wars, oil prices skyrocketing and an economy in crisis.
Harry Truman said it best -- if you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen.
Who do you think has what it takes?
I’m Hillary Clinton and I approve this message.

The reply from the Obama Campaign?

"Now one of Clinton’s Laws of Politics is this: If one candidate's trying to scare you and the other one's trying to get you to think; if one candidate's appealing to your fears and the other one's appealing to your hopes, you better vote for the person who wants you to think and hope. That's the best."
- Bill Clinton, 2004; April 21, 2008 at 12:22 PM
Roscoe said...: Feh to all of you alls.

Feh, say I, Feh.; April 21, 2008 at 12:56 PM
_J_ said...: I think I may have finally reached the point where something pissed me off so much that I cannot write a rant about it.

I'm just staring at this screen incapable of writing words...

Must break logjam.; April 21, 2008 at 1:07 PM
Caleb said...: If you can’t stand the heat, get out of the kitchen. And, that's where Hillary belongs, in the kitchen...; April 21, 2008 at 1:07 PM
_J_ said...: My assumption is that Hillary makes terrible pies.; April 21, 2008 at 1:30 PM
Roscoe said...: I say, Scornomancer, you offer me NOTHING on this, the day of days?

Your showing has proven poor, old chap.; April 21, 2008 at 3:17 PM
Caleb said...: Why isn't Martha Stewart running? Her fall Applecrisp once saved a good friend of mind from death by a severe cold.; April 21, 2008 at 3:24 PM
_J_ said...: I tried to write a rant but the subject made me too mad. So it was less a substantive rant and more of a "fuck stupid people".; April 21, 2008 at 3:55 PM
_J_ said...: ...which I guess is based on the assumption that all of the rants I do post are something more than "fuck stupid people".

Which, really, may not be the case.; April 21, 2008 at 4:01 PM
Roscoe said...: you know who I miss? Ellen Feiss.

And that, kiddies, is both topical and true.; April 21, 2008 at 10:37 PM
MA17 said...: The library on campus has added a few video games to their selection, and apparently that prompted the unearthing of some PC games including Riven, The Neverhood, and...get this...an official DigDug port on 5 1/4" floppy disk.

C:\> B:

The system cannot find the drive specified because this is not 1990.

Foiled again! Might see if I can get that copy of The Neverhood to work, though.; April 22, 2008 at 12:33 AM
_J_ said...: I have a 5 1/4 drive in my room.

Finally! It has a use!; April 22, 2008 at 9:59 AM
Roscoe said...: GAH! Dig to the Dug, Old Man to Mister Driller's Modern Young Whipppersnapper!

Dug won't take no can't find drive sass, you hear? HE's got a pump AND drill, and he's not averse to using them, if you get his drift.; April 22, 2008 at 10:10 AM
_J_ said...: You're a crazy person.; April 22, 2008 at 11:00 AM
Unknown said...: I would like to thank Tantric for pushing my agenda with their new single to include the violin as a reputable rock instrument.

And just for kicks:
more proof!; April 22, 2008 at 3:09 PM
_J_ said...: Hasn't Dave Matthews band been providing violin-centric rock for years?; April 22, 2008 at 3:21 PM
_J_ said...: Magic: The Gathering III apparently launches, apparently sucks.; April 22, 2008 at 3:39 PM
_J_ said...: Miley Cyrus to write her memoirs

So, 15 year olds are writing memoirs.

Neat.; April 22, 2008 at 4:38 PM
Unknown said...: Woo I'm going to work for Cha Cha! I'm excited.; April 22, 2008 at 7:10 PM
Unknown said...: DMB in my opinion provides no raw emotion in their music, and to call it rock in my opinion is an insult to rock. But I will let it slide because they have pushed the violin agenda.

... for now; April 22, 2008 at 7:12 PM
Unknown said...: Although it sounds weird, yes a 15 year old can write memoirs. A memoir doesn't require someone to be old, it merely requires something to have happened in one's own life that one wishes to write about. A memoir isn't about the author's entire life but merely a small chunk of it, and it seems most sensible for an author to write a memoir while their memory of such time is still fresh.; April 22, 2008 at 7:15 PM
Roscoe said...: Woot on the job front, Kyle.; April 22, 2008 at 7:17 PM
Christina said...: Jay should come to Cincinnati this weekend! It could be a veritable Young House reunion!; April 22, 2008 at 7:51 PM
_J_ said...: sex?; April 22, 2008 at 10:21 PM
Roscoe said...: And that right there? Why a Young House Reunion probably shouldn't be.

I'm told there's nothing more awkward than trying to revive a menage-a-trois.

Perhaps, just perhaps, you should just treasure your memories of the triple, J.; April 22, 2008 at 11:52 PM
_J_ said...: You're supposed to say "money's too tight for sex."

Or "yes".; April 23, 2008 at 12:02 AM
Caleb said...: I think, you're confusing sex with steak.; April 23, 2008 at 12:26 AM
_J_ said...: That's impossible.; April 23, 2008 at 9:41 AM
_J_ said...: The prices in the vending machine at work went up by $.05. So now a very small bag of pretzles costs $.60 and a bag of spicy sweet Doritos costs $.85. Happily, I bring my own pretzles to work so these prices do not concern me.

But this sort of shit is the sort of thing I do not even want to know.

Four months till grad school...; April 23, 2008 at 10:36 AM
_J_ said...: According to Fox News, "researchers from the Cancer Council of Victoria found that men who masturbated more than five times each week were one-third less likely to develop [prostate] cancer".; April 23, 2008 at 12:04 PM
Roscoe said...: Why is Victoria looking at men masturbating in such excess?

What, precisely, is this Victoria's interest in such activities?; April 23, 2008 at 2:31 PM
_J_ said...: "What, precisely, is this Victoria's interest in such activities?"

I don't know about Victoria, but her Cancel Council can't seem to look at anything else.; April 23, 2008 at 2:49 PM
Unknown said...: What about men who masturbate more than 5 times daily?; April 23, 2008 at 3:26 PM
_J_ said...: That's a good question...

I wonder if it needs to be spread out over the week or if a person could, say, just masturbate five times one day a week and be good?; April 23, 2008 at 3:31 PM
Unknown said...: I would just like to say that I have been fighting Prostate Cancer for over a decade now.; April 24, 2008 at 11:03 AM
_J_ said...: I've fought Prostate Cancer since 6th grade.

And while I have won the battle thus far I shall never cease.

Never.; April 24, 2008 at 12:42 PM
Roscoe said...: Do you all want Cancer Fighter badges or something?

Because.. really, if so, I'd like a badge that says Master of my Own Domain.; April 24, 2008 at 2:32 PM
Unknown said...: You and I both! To the death, I shall fight this debilitating disease! Together we can make a difference!!!

On second thought, please strike that last sentence from the record. Keep up the good work.; April 24, 2008 at 2:35 PM
MA17 said...: Episode One + Benny Hill

Once the clip starts, I think you'll probably be able to figure out what's going to happen, but even still, I lolled.; April 24, 2008 at 3:39 PM
_J_ said...: "Together we can make a difference!!!"

I'm flattered.

Really.; April 24, 2008 at 4:47 PM
Roscoe said...: You know who rocks?

Rocket Raccoon and his Human Hangers On.; April 25, 2008 at 11:07 AM
_J_ said...: Here is an e-mail sent by a customer:

"Pleas let us know wenn the material well bee delivret ?"

Huyuck.; April 25, 2008 at 3:36 PM
MA17 said...: For the record:

Brian Ashcraft does not know the difference between 2D and 3D.; April 26, 2008 at 7:50 AM
Unknown said...: Looks 2D to me.; April 26, 2008 at 10:47 AM
Roscoe said...: 3D character design on a 2D plane, like the heyday of the 90's fighting games.

Ashcraft actually is talking sense, I hate to say.

This as opposed to the Virtua Fighter/Tekken/Soul Caliber new/now de riguer 3D plane.

Yeah, we can get into a whole long diatribe about how they're basically the same thing with a side-step function and a twirly camera, because the game inevitably automatically seeks out the one plane between the two combatants..; April 26, 2008 at 2:26 PM
Roscoe said...: Also, I want to play that sonovabitch.; April 26, 2008 at 2:27 PM
Unknown said...: Yesterday, Tycho mentioned he "had the opportunity to tuck a Star Control homage in the strip." I have tried to find said homage on three separate occasions now. Did anyone else catch this and notice what exactly he did? I am apparently a failure for I can't find it, and would like someone to explain it to me.; April 26, 2008 at 9:42 PM
_J_ said...: Link to strip?; April 27, 2008 at 2:45 PM
Unknown said...: My best guess is that this is the comic in question. The link Tycho made on the news post was broken and just lead back to the home page.; April 27, 2008 at 8:18 PM
MA17 said...: The reference is subtle; April 27, 2008 at 11:10 PM
Unknown said...: damn you onomatopoeia!!!!!; April 28, 2008 at 11:48 AM
