Avoidance chronicle.

Today, while at work, I planned my trip to Washington D.C. I also researched jello wrestling opportunities. There's lesbian jello wrestling in D.C., but it's not while I'm there -- I may have to make a second trip

I have never been happier not to understand how to work Tumblr.

Also, I think the stoned guy should wear a bowtie while he reads Wallace Stevens. Just a suggestion.

I have no idea what you're talking about, man, Tumblr is just chock-full of amazingly horrible porn. Who wouldn't want to work that? :D? :D?

There are definitely days where MOSS tells me I have to get off Tumblr. Usually those are days when he looks over and sees me perusing a photowall of feet. Foot fetishists: also interesting.

Also your bowtie suggestion is GOLD. Maybe also a natty vest! Although maybe a natty poncho would be more useful for the guy. Now that I think of it, I should probably get the Wallace Stevens laminated.

I was just sitting here reading terrible, awful Harry/Draco 'Harry is a Veela' fic and thinking about how AO3 is ruining my life and someone needs to take away my access to it. I think if I ever figured out how to work Tumblr I actually would never get anything done again ever. And then I'd get fired, so I guess I'd have a lot of free time for Tumblr.

PS: Definitely a poncho. Or a drug rug. Do they still call them that? God, my youth was so very long ago.

I have put a perma-ban on Tumblr at work, to be honest, because that way lies unemployment for sure. I am thinking I should probably put a ban on LJ, too.

I have never heard them called a drug rug, except now I am totally going to call ponchos that everywhere always. That is amazing! (I was also a seriously unhip kid, so I wouldn't have heard it, to be fair.)

Oh man, I do love the way that sports writers can be geeky about mathematics and geeky about things which are nothing like mathematics (11. Chickens which face a wall decorated with pictures of Yakupov lay eggs slightly larger than chickens facing a Murray-decorated wall)

[sinsense]

I love when they combine the two. "73% of adult chickens snuggled in the arms of Yakupov indicate through clucks that they enjoy his cologne." Also, quite seriously, if you sent that eleventh item into the Edmonton Journal they would probably run it.

I was talking about buying a bedazzler and MOSS thought I was speaking ironically. I pulled up three pictures of Justin Timberlake (circa ramen hair) to indicate that no, no, I was not being ironic at all. The early aughts were a great time, a great time.

I don't think I'm saying anything all that extraordinary about warnings, but-- yeah, lecturing my vegetables, apparently I needed to type it?

"be still my pants" BWAH! I'll be over here proofing this manuscript and snickering. Hee.

That is belle_noiseuse's creation, I can't take credit for it. More's the pity!

[impertinence]

you + everyone else in existence knows my stance on warnings.

I cannot help with your shoes! but I support any and all jello wrestling.

[sinsense]

You have a stance on warnings? WHAT IN THE DICKS ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT. By which I mean yeah. I have been very grateful to you for schooling me on that subject.

Jello wrestling and bedazzling are both incredibly important. I'm glad you support this platform, even if you can't help me with my shoes.

(Just had a vision of the blowfish from your icon jello wrestling, it was great.)
