Kittens are cute. Puppies are cute. Baby hippos are cute. This is just flat-out nauseatingly cute. If it were one iota cuter, I’d have to throw up on the keyboard. 😆

Animated emoticons are kind of cute, as long as they’re small and not overused. Animated avatars should be considered an offense punishable by drawing and quartering. So should stupid pictures of your homely brats, but animations are even worse. I don’t even care if it’s funny or cute because it’s only funny or cute THE […]

The Riddle ***** I got two strong arms. Blessings of Babylon, Time to carry on and try for sins and false alarms, So to America the brave, wise men save. Near a tree by a river there’s a hole in the ground, Where an old man of Aran goes around and around, And his mind […]

I thought I was going to have to wait until tomorrow, but it arrived about twenty minutes ago. The dumbass driver didn’t even knock (I know because I was right in the fishie room and I can hear a six-year-old Brownie knocking to sell cookies from there), just left the box on the front porch, […]

Well, I’ve made up my mind for certain about the camera. Not that it’s going to matter ATM, because I’ve struck out finding an S3 locally and I have a suspicion that P will as well. He’s going to call around today (because I’ve exhausted my non-long distance area) and see whether he can find […]

When you wake up in the morning and the very first thing that comes into your head is: “I don’t wanna be a cook or a fireman. I don’t wanna play trombone in a marching band. I just wanna be a Care Bear, like yoooouuuu!” …you KNOW you need a holiday. 😆

Dumbass bloggers, stop wasting my electrons to warn me about an advert I will never even see. Anyone who wants the web in an even remotely bearable form has been blocking advertising since before the beginning of the new millenium, and that includes me. The last time I saw advertising on the web was when […]

Wearable….where? 😆 Wearable wrist computer, vintage 1984
