  1. Today I learned from @neiltyson that the "Unmentionable N Word" is "Nucular".
  2. I hate those screaming piles of "Duh!" moments.
  3. @indygreg Yeah, but I think their lead singer changed from the last time: youtube.com/watch?v=HPZAiM…
  4. Avengers: good, a few hard WTF plot points and goofed consistency, mostly empty theater, Worth $11.
  5. Reading all the articles about coding reminds me that the most important things you learn are generally done involuntarily.
  6. @ultramookie @davglass, you forget. IPOs are not for the customers. They're for people who think Vegas is "low stakes".
  7. Apparently, "burn in" for earbuds is a thing. BS detector slightly edging up, though.
  8. Current Rank: 310,807,403
  9. Divided cake box recipe by 24 to make 2 cupcakes Thank Mouton for the metric system.
  10. Woot! May just be a torn ligament in my knee. Need Xrays and possibly an MRI (not so woot).
  11. @ocean @beach, Get @moon involved and you could probably take over @tide
  12. @floatingatoll Actually, very Hawaiian. The kitchy shirts you see now are sad rip offs of the originals. Reverse or kapa are more old school
  13. Uhm, wouldn't they just be called "leaders"? Isn't "reverse leadership" going backwards? blogs.hbr.org/cs/2012/05/fin… #stupidmemeisstupid
  14. Woot! Byron is Free www2.macleans.ca/2012/05/15/byr…
  15. @mconnor I like you. That's why I'm not going to suggest you take this route: g.co/maps/4pwq7
  16. @floatingatoll You used to work on the Orange line, right? Oh and dhofen hondite.
  17. @floatingatoll BOOO!! Finally being able to understand the Metro announcers is a rite of passage in DC. It's the rosetta stone of transit.
  18. @philikon Great, just what the stockmarket needs, price crashes based on solar flares.
