yamamanamaJapan is like a country ruled by The Clock King.
Rachel really likes the name Florentine. She knows an Esther too. I know an Esther and an Astrid and several Emmas and a Ruby so I guess people are picking old fashioned names and expecting them to become popular.
She loves the book Catch 22 and I said that Ants-In-My-Eyes Johnson has no problem seeing that he has ants in his eyes, but maybe that's because his name is Ants-In-My-Eyes.
Rachel was talking about the valedictory speech at her high school, when the valectorian, whose name was something like Daphne, talks about a time she needed help with something and that something was calculus, and she brought up a woman whose husband deliberately hit her with a car and she stressed forgive and forget and she's back together with the guy, and Rachel's like "that's not a healthy relationship." The salutatorian speech was by some guy whose name is not the male version of Chloë, whatever that is, nor is it Bryaxis, was by some guy who was equally sheltered.
I also neglected to ask about if they remembered what they learned in elementary school social studies. This is because someone somewhere said that in East Germany, they didn't teach about the second World War in school, apparently, they only taught about the Great War because they were trying to erase the past or something, and she's most likely going by personal experience even though she was nine when the Berlin Wall came down.
I don't know what I learned in 3rd grade social studies.
Sam didn't offer her opinion on ghettoization in Europe. She found a sequined Minnie Mouse headband and called herself the Easter Mouse. Her hair had pink in it. I guess she's going to Disney World or Disneyland or maybe Euro-Disney.
So I had to explain Fairyland and how part of it is set in the ruins of Euro-Disney. I remember reading that Disney didn't allow him to use the name Disneyland or Euro Disney but I can't confirm it.
A disneyfied bluebird flies up to the window. Its brown, human eyes, with coy, fluttering lashes, stare into Alex’s. It chirps a merry song, and then swoops away across the sunny meadows.

Lauren knows someone who's name is Elizabeth Emma Louisa something and that's because her grandmother and her sisters had those names.
There were Hanukkah chocolate laying about and I told Lauren about the time I ate a lollipop with the message "make smart decisions!" affixed to it, which probably wasn't a smart decision, except I called it a jolly rancher, although I've eaten old jolly ranchers before. I checked. Chat logs don't lie but memory does.
It's been eight years and I'm not dead yet.
The worst thing about old candy is when the wrapper fuses to the candy. That applies equally to cough drops.
Lauren says that jolly ranchers are the last thing she worries about when it comes to expiration dates.
I wondered about the far right in Belgium, and Rachel says there's a far right everywhere. You know what I mean, though. A prominent far right like France, Austria, Norway vs. a marginalized far right like in Portugal or Ireland vs. a far right that was co-opted by the mainstream right, like France or Slovakia, vs places where left and right don't really mean anything, like Slovakia, Russia, or Serbia.
Anyways, I'm hoping that Marine Le Pen dies in a car crash or goes hunting with Dick Cheney. The world would be a better place with her gone but if Arabs were to kill her, that would just make her a martyr. Obviously, if she's president, the damage is already done.
In fact, if people piss me off, I'm going to tell them to go hunting with Dick Cheney.
Rachel was at AnimeBoston and lined up to watched bad anime and she got there just in time to get in, where she watched one anime about vampires or something and a trailer for a show that Arnold Schwarzenegger (I am so grateful spell check recognizes his name because I can't spell it for shit) commissioned in which he's a transformer who fights crime.
Someone said he saw a guy dressed as Ants-In-My-Eyes Johnson.
burning question: do Trump supporters care about any freedom aside from collecting assault weapons and paying too much for shitty health care?
