Once, I was /very/ drunk, and for whatever reason, I decided it was a good idea to walk 4 or so miles to Walmart and look at electronics. The whole trip and back happened completely without incident, and the next day I could only remember about 20 seconds of the whole thing. That's the day I realized that consciousness is not really all that necessary to everyday life.

It's one of the profound paradoxes in my life that one of the people whom I love dearly believes neither in dreams nor cilantro. At least she likes cats.

@cavempty_ This is why we must scorn Alcohol and seek only Nicotine.

OK, so, admittedly, I've never read a word of Dostoevsky before today. He was on the other side of the veil that my Education constructed in teaching me Literature, by demanding Correct Answers about the Classics.

But this story: holy shitballs!

@emily_for_now It seems to be a rich source of inspiration. I still like a lot of the music that hit me hard as a teenager. Not this new stuff, though, that's for babies.

@iluvtacos0822 Same, except the first part.

Just saw the "For You" page on Google images for the first time.

a) C'mon, Google, I'm not as simple of a guy as you're portraying, here.

b) The fact that I scrolled through 30 screens full of your recommendations is /not/ evidence against the above assertion.

When I was a newborn, doctors told my parents I had a blood clot in my brain, and that it might get knocked loose and kill me some day. I've never really reflected much on how that might have affected them.

When I think back on some of the things that boosted my ego as a kid, I cringe.

But I also really envy that little turd.

Live every day as if it were your last chance to save hundreds on car insurance!

If your UX felt like petting a cat, I would buy your app, whatever the hell it is.

Man, all these transistors.

Also, sometimes, kinda frustrating, because it can be a distraction if you were wanting to stay within the zone of formality.

[Steven Ourada @sourada]

It's kinda obvious, but also kinda wild, that if you relentlessly follow any particular line of formal inquiry into the nature of the world or of thought, you eventually start running into the fuzzy boundary with the informal and/or ineffable.

OK, haw haw, laughing at the Funny Number, really mature. But can we just acknowledge that it's extra funny when your company is named "Golden Rule" and you have truck #69?

What is the psychological or spiritual malady that corresponds to the fact that I have one follicle on my nose that repeatedly grows hairs several millimeters long?

[Steven Ourada @sourada]

Oooh, a bonus crust in my frozen pizza. Kinda feel like Homer and his three-chambered peanut.
