    I have a copy of the 1923 American Type Founders specimen book.

    I want more specimens but we have no places to put them, I don't think.

    You know, I had a dream last night that I walked around a bit downtown taking pictures of street name signs.

    I considered doing it in real life, when I got the chance, but...the City of Columbus uses the blandest street name blades I've ever seen in my life.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I kinda like those.

    As boring as the design is, the City of Columbus actually does really well with their street name signs. The design/layout is very consistent, they always sign both roads at an intersection, and they almost always use larger signs than the minimum required by the MUTCD.

    Recently they've switched to using mixed-case names on the street signs, but the design remains unchanged. (Unfortunately I don't yet have a photo)

    ...615 Music's Seize The Day popped into my head.

    The only thing I don't care for about Columbus's street blades is they never hang them with the traffic lights at major intersections.

    It seems most places in Central Ohio don't, actually...the City of Bexley does, as does the adjacent City of Whitehall, though the latter only does so at certain intersections and there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason to it.

    "TIME TO SLACK THE FUCK OFF"

    You know... if I read this in a certain way, it sounds more like a laborious and messy chore than an opportunism to get some sloth up ins.

    Huh, randomguy123 probably just got banned form TV Tropes for finally going over the edge in the pagan thread.

    The most surprising thing is how long it took really. It's been awhile since I've seen a troper push the bounds of hostility like that.

    I remember one time he ad-hominem'd the MLP:FIM thread in WA because people didn't agree with him that the show was too idealistic.

    He apologized, though.

    He usually calms down after a bit. 

    His posts are thumped now, but I'm not all that surprised if he went too far this time around.

    This was always one of my favorite signs when I was a kid. It's in Delaware, Ohio, where US 36 and OH 37 (which had been together as Sunbury Road) split into William Street and Central Avenue:

    ...Though this one is actually a replacement. The original had each piece as a separate sign, rather than all being printed on one large sign.

    Too complicated. Guess I'll just navigate by the Force.

    Tomorrow, if I remember, I'm gonna walk around a bit with my camera after school and take some random pictures.

    There is an I-670 detour sign assembly near campus that is mounted on an unusually long pole. But is the pole properly mounted into the ground? No, that's too much work. Instead it is simply duct-taped to the back of a bus stop sign pole.

    ...The hard part will be getting a photo without looking like I'm photographing the people at the bus stop.

    ABC Inc wants to buy more shit.

    It doesn't know what to do with said shit, but still. It's hedging on buying Summit Entertainment, too, as it questions the studio's future after The Twilight Saga wraps up.

    Who owns the rights to Bill Nye the Science Guy? You should buy whoever they are and then start re-running it on The Hub.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    ...we do, in fact!

    We got it when we bought Disney-ABC Domestic Television!

    Well then clearly you should buy yourselves. It wouldn't cost anything, and it would still satisfy your animalistic need to consume corporations!
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    ...let's buy ESPN!
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Schrodinger's Stalks, locked in a box. Bean or celery, or both simultaneously?

    ...you still think that's funny, don't you?
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Was it ever funny?
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I don't know, you seem fond of it.

    The episode it originated from is funny to me, though.

    A year or two ago I had this idea about a webcomic about two people who buy an RV and drive endlessly around just for the hell of it.

    For some reason I'm thinking about that, again.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    Sometimes things like that come back.

    Like Fox 9 KUSA.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    I don't think it's funny so much as it's just a bit weird. Which for some reason I like.

    And yeah, it is a funny episode.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    ...you watched it?
  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    Interestingly, part of why I'd scrapped the idea a year ago was because the two people were supposed to be close friends and I had no experience with friendship, so I had no idea how to write that.

    This is no longer the case, it would seem.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Yeah, I finally caved in and watched the whole thing.

    ...I might watch more episodes.

    ...THEY MIGHT HAVE GOT ME
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I remember trying to reject the ponies.

    This backfired horribly, as is obvious to everyone.

    ...You tried to reject the ponies? When the fuck was that?
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    I changed my avatar on TZ to Maplehoof and John Egbert, accompanying it with "I reject your ponies and substitute my own.".
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Anyone who attempts to reject them is defeated in the end.

    Heh.

    For some reason I wonder how our relationship would be different if we hadn't bonded over ponies.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    It would probably be less fun.
  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    Yeah.

    And we wouldn't have nearly as many silly litlte in-jokes as we have now.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    ...sometimes I wish I was as close with others as I was you.
  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    I do too.

    For some reason I miss the Wal-Mart I visited in Newnan, Georgia.

    I don't know why; there was nothing special about it. I guess I just miss the novelty of being in a store somewhere far away from home at 10 at night.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    ...god, I wanna go to Meijer now!
  • You are the end result of a “would you push the button” prompt where the prompt was “you have unlimited godlike powers but you appear to all and sundry to be an impetuous child” – Zero, 2022
    It's contagious, I see.

    ...I need to get some better Meijer pictures.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    So let it be written
    So let it be done
    I'm sent here by the chosen one

    So let it be written
    So let it be done
    To kill the first born Pharaoh son
    I'm creeping death

    Ulg, OTC is doing that thing where I peruse random threads and then fluids start leaking out my ears.

    Think I'll call it a night.

    Talk to you all later.
  • I've learned to tolerate drama...except on the boat
    Good night.
  • Touch the cow. Do it now.
    Night, Justice.

    Completely unrelatedly, sometimes I wonder why some folks keep going in OTC when it clearly causes mental anguish. I learned my lesson a long time ago.
  • ...sometimes I wish I was as close with others as I was you.

    Aw, you guys.
