  • Awesome. It's really impossible to convey the strategy that IRLIBSYR's Evan Ingersoll is pursuing by hitting SOVWAR's Ann Kittenplan (sadly lacking a crew cut) directly -- the video just makes Ingersoll look like a jerk, but it's a preemptive strike. Finally, "you can only launch against the territory, not the map. Jaysus!"

  • You really shouldn't drink out of the NASA cup. Trust me.

  • W.r.t. to DFW, I really miss him. A great scene (one of many) in a truly rewarding and unforgettable book.

  • man, i'm sort of sad that David Foster Wallace wasn't around to see this.

  • 10 people are feeling their faces to see whether or not they are wincing.

  • It is now, beyond any argument or equivocation, snowing.

  • Queenasublisie bonnaby bonedrab. You know what I mean?

  • I love this song. It reminds me of all the good times in my life but also all the bad times. It gives me true peace but also sadness. But in the end, the good times win and I feel perfect. Wishing I could be back in those times. But I can't because I can't travel back in time, but I can listen to this song.

  • The intro to this song makes me want to fire up the car and hit the highway. The Duke Cavalier features this on his blog. Kind of a satire on mainstream stuff...Check it out: thedukecavalier. blogspot. com

  • I hear about this, and as soon as I opened the video I was like "holy shit, it's Pemulis"

  • That was actually a very clever analogy of global war. Well played Decemberists. You never cease to amaze me :)
