Still hilarious how the only Far Side that Gary Larson apologized for was the one making fun of Ishtar, because everyone told him it was awful but he hadn’t actually seen it himself and ended up thinking it was an okay film

@Marvelman76 A core comic memory for me. I always pick it up when I see it in the wild.

The lady at the drive-thru referred to them as croissant sandwiches and it's not like I wanted to say croissan'wich.

You could get a couple plymouth prowlers for the price of a cyber truck.

I feel identical immediate unease whenever I realize that someone has clearly taken harmonica lessons and when this one is going to be a whedonesque musical episode.

I knew that amigo means friend in Spanish when I was in kindergarten, so how did I just learn that enemy is enemigo.

I've never watched sports but you can tell that I come from a family that watches sports whenever I watch a competitive cooking show.

@Marvelman76 I adore the jumpsuit era! I commissioned this one from Amy Reeder forever ago.

I usually presume that people aren't trying to be a jerk on purpose so I am often confused.

It's never an automatic ground rule double when I try to use a sports analogy.

The number of Uber drivers that drive one-handed and hold their phone is bonkers to me.

If you want to come at me tomorrow, I have a haircut right after therapy so I will be at the height of my powers.

I don't have that condition where cilantro tastes like soap but I do have the one where it tastes like vomit with batteries in it.

They said that they were returning to their roots with the latest installment of this video game series, and if they mean crappy by today's standards then they nailed it.

[The Jazz Estate @thejazzestate]

Remembering the great Vi Redd who was born on this day in 1928. The first female instrumentalist to headline at a jazz festival, Redd was a gifted saxophonist and singer.

Her saxophone style was mellow with a bright, effortless swing. She demonstrated intentional melodic phrasing to accommodate the rapid chord progressions while maintaining swing within the songs. She created emotional swells through emphatic phrasing, carefully adding just enough embellishment to subtly, but definitively, convey the meaning of the songs.

In spite of the fact that she became an accomplished saxophonist who performed with well-known artists such as Count Basie, Dizzy Gillespie, and Max Roach, she only had two commercially recorded albums. This was at least in part due to the assumption that female musicians wouldn't be commercially successful. Even though she only had two albums recorded, they are excellent illustrations of her mastery of jazz music. Redd’s dedication to and mastery of jazz music has paved the way for many other talented ladies.

Here, she is performing “Stormy Monday Blues” with the Count Basie orchestra live in France, 1968.
