    I want to read these books.

    So I can snark at them.

  • Political children's books are stupid. If you're a parent, and think that's a better choice for a child than a book that will entertain and give a more neutral but not political propaganda message then you're on the road of being a bad parent.

    Today is a great day :D
  • The sadness will last forever.

    Why?

    On a critical note that's not anything to do with the political crap, the entire message of the book is entirely dependent on the text. When you're a 3 or 4 year old kid, you want to look at all the things going on in Scarry's Busytown or other classic books and even at that age you pretty much know what's going on there, even without knowing how to read. Not so here, but the good news is it makes it easy to replace the text with anything you want. The second image, for instance:

    "The Democrats of the 1960's deep South shun those different from themselves and are offended whenever they walk upon our sidewalks that are meant only for us, just like Mommy does."

    What the hell is it with people in a hallway standing right in front of an open door to an occupied classroom and having a full decibel conversation when it's audibly apparent that the professor is giving a lecture?
  • Doctor Who reference in Pokemon B2W2? Headcanon accepted.

    hahah oh shit, the professor closed the door and we could still hear them and she walked back out and told them to shut the hell up

    it's these little things that show me there's still hope for the human race

  • Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast
    When I was growing up, I thought people who believed that opposite people attract each other were talking utter rubbish...

    I'm a neutron
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    250 British pounds is roughly 389 U.S. dollars.

    I guess that is substantial.
  • Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast
    Its the most I've ever got outside of my student loan.

    Imipolex, if that's the trade value to the USD then the American dollar isn't as pathetic as it was a few years ago
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Well, it's what the Universal Currency Converter told me.

    I know, a few years ago £250 was worth $500.

    Yeah, that's a hell of a difference in such a short time. Makes me wish I stocked up on GBP and let them sit
  • For a long time there's been a local treat called boso. I could never figure out where the idea came from until today.

    No idea where they got the name from though.

    Cut myself shaving.


    And I got up and 1 in the fricking afternoon.


    I am abstaining from caffine for a bit and seeing if I can right my sleeping schedule.


    In other news, I am writing a sonnet and a research paper on a book.

    Only 40 minutes left in my first day of this internship!

    And at least part of that time will be spent traveling back to the other office from campus, so...

    Remember back in the 50s when they'd record like Elvis singing YOU AIN'T NOTHIN BUT A HOUND DOG and then they'd turn the record over and reverse it and it was all NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP NYERP and people were all like, "That is actually the voice of Satan coming from that song."
    Oh okay, my mistake. Congratulations on getting the internship, CA! How was it?
  • Well, looks like I have two volunteer positions I can work at.
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    What type of positions, JZ?

  • READ MY CROSS SHIPPING-FANFICTION, DAMMIT!

    i get so angry sometimes i just punch plankton --Klinotaxis
    ^ I LIKE it!
  • The sadness will last forever.
    Gah, one of my ex's girlfriends is really annoying as hell. She threw a temper tantrum over her comments not being in a chat anymore.
  • Irene: why did I smirk at "positions?" One at a food bank and the other at a thrift store.
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    JZ: That's why I asked. Nice. And why did I expect a non-serious answer? ;)
  • Geez, Irene. Maybe you need to get your head out of the gutter and stop trying to corrupt innocent youths such as myself :P
  • I'm a loser. Also, Creeper. And a woman.
    You were already corrupted. Innocent, right... :P

    I hope it all goes well for ya. :)

    Wheeee home now

    That was fun, I guess. I only have to work three days a week, so.

    Tomorrow's high: 101F.

    "101" is a U.S. Route. Or a quantity of Dalmatians. It sure as hell isn't a temperature. >:(

    (cue everyone from hotter parts of the country mocking me)

    Saturday's expected high for Atlanta: 104°F. (which really isn't that much higher)

    It gets a little better next week, though.
  • Smoke me a kipper, I'll be back for breakfast
    I sure wish it got to 101 degrees F here.

    I'm hoping my supervisor will re-think her plans for us to walk around and hang up posters tomorrow
