yamamanamaIn the words of Nabû-kudurri-uṣur, King of the Universe, himself:
Verdi: Anna!
Kanye: Abaraša lā!
One time, Jacob was taking the dogs for a walk and Daisy ditched Jacob in the deep woods, and when Jacob came back to the wildlife center an hour and a half later, Daisy was chilling on the couch.
Olivia was eating kedgeree, which is a dish of rice, including wild rice, flakes of fish, in her case I think she said salmon, parsley, hard-boiled eggs, curry powder, butter, and sultanas. I don’t think there were sultanas. There were peas, though. And maybe lentils. Harry put a chicken nugget on top.
Jacob called it dagareeah, which sounds like a tropical drink says Harry but to me, it sounds like a painful disease, and to Olivia, it sounds like what the English colonizers thought of Indian food.
I was like “I wish I could afford to eat more than one meal a day” and Harry’s the same way.
Riley's favorite Christmas movie is The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Courtney, yes, that Courtney, (I would say, no, not that one, but I think there’s only one I regularly referred to) is taking care of a pheasant with a broken leg, who refuses to get better. And it's in her attic.
Peter was like “it must smell unpheasant.”
She had a hairless rat named Hades but Jacob called it Scrotes.
Michael said that Jedi Rocks is not the worst song he's ever heard because he's heard the Kars For Kids jingle.
I speculated that Sad Puppies 4 fizzled out long before it even begun and Sad Puppies 5 never happened because exposure means criticism.
So, some of the Hoyts and Hoydens want to raise the age of adulthood to 35, waiving it for those who serve five years in the military, own a business for five years, or are married and have at least one child for five years.
And their argument against it isn’t flower wars or forcing people into marriage or motherhood way too early because that’s a lot less deadly than fighting someone’s flower war and a lot easier than maintaining a business for five years, it’s that the left could game it. I swear with these people there is no bottom.
I was looking for someone who argued against rent control because there would be fewer empty apartments. Also people should pay for the privilege of living in New York or San Francisco over Mary or Tejen or something.
Speaking of which, a bunch of them think that citizenship should be tiered, should be revokeable for being antifa (although some of them are afraid the left will game that and start using it against Ypatingasis Boys), and that non-citizens who have children on US soil should be required to give up their child's citizenship or required to give up their child. Because if things are that bad back where they're from, they'll happily do the latter. Because we can't have potentially voting citizens raised by foreigners, you know. Or kids born to non-citizen parents should be deported until they come of age, when they can choose to come back without their family.
Some of them are trying to say that science fiction is innately white and male and that non-white or non-male writers are invaders.
Burning question: Trey Parker and Matt Stone? Does that mean there's an alternate reality out there in which there is a radical centrist, and therefore worse, version of Movie 43?
