“You can't bring a snake in here! This is a bakery!”
“Please? He’s totally tame, and we just need one thing.”
“OK, fine. What do you need?”
“A dozen buns.”
“We’re fresh out.”
“Oh.”
“Can I get you some rolls instead?”
“No, sorry. They're for the snake.”
“So?”
“He’s an anaconda.”

@PaulMarcoe I went yesterday and....while I'm pretty sure there's no such thing as a bad day at Tipsoo, it was substantially less colorful than what you captured. (On the other hand, I got to watch sunset with a very talkative pika, so that was nice.)

@reeceislame @_sade_xo I think the weather made it worse this year, but from a friend who lives in the area and works with a lot of bands...yes, BRRF has always been a disaster, and it's not clear how they keep getting bands to come back year after year.

(Falling to my knees, begging, pleading)
Please.
Folks, seriously.
PLEASE.
Do not - and I can’t emphasize this enough - set the state on fire this weekend.

So more on yesterday and the Fun Surprise. My beloved girlfriend, @infamousfiddler, figured out last year that you can just...rent an ice cream truck and make the ice cream free. It's a thing you can do!

@catvalente I can not stop thinking about this glorious long tumblr thread about blood being imitation seawater

@RoRoSparky @writenatewrite I definitely did as well...it was simultaneously impressive and cringe-inducing.

Huh, the crust of this marionberry pie is unusually sharp... oh, just kidding, it's not crust. It's an inch of marionberry thorn that got mixed into the filling somehow.

@MountRainierWA Just a typo, they meant obscured...by clouds.

@aprotim @MerriamWebster I remember being confused the first time my boss used the word prepone...not that I couldn't figure out what he meant, just that I had never in 28 years heard somebody say it.

@cutofffrequenc @andrewhuang @BreedloveGuitar +1 for Breedlove! I mean, on any given day it might be a toss up between Breedlove and Taylor for me, but yeah for my ear/sonic preferences I regularly see sub-$1k Breeedloves that I would choose over a higher-end Martin or Gibson.
