They do look v. nice. I wish I was of a somewhat normal size and could do things like clothing swaps or shopping at resale stores.

You were clearing doing something wrong, but I hesitate to ponder on exactly what.

My cell phone battery went totally kaput this morning and I went to US Cellular to get a new one and this punk ass kid behind the counter said they'd have to order one and it would take TWO WEEKS! I said UNACCEPTABLE plz expedite and he said nowai can't do it and I said let me talk to a manager and the kid gave me some gruff and I said, "Listen, you've been very helpful so far, but the more reluctant you are to let me speak with a manager the more likely I am to speak poorly of you" so out came the manager. He called another store that was THREE measely blocks away and they had the battery right there in stock so I stopped there on the way back to school and got a new battery for free right away and now my phone works.
I also went to the Christkindlmarket and got some sweet cheese pancakes and applesauce on a total whim, which is possibly the best idea I've had in weeks.
So the moral of the story is: ask for a manager and never pass up a chance for sweet cheese pancakes.

and yeah, ghost bikes are the saddest. but that's why they need to exist

What is a ghost bike?
I came in here to post this for word nerdz b/c of our conversation on gender determinism the other day: http://itre.cis.upenn.edu/~myl/languagelog/archives/003894.html

the road up to where i "work" is absolutely littered with roadside crosses.
maybe it's because roadside crosses can often be the result of yr own bad driving, while ghost bikes are generally the result of jerkoff drivers killing cyclists. AND they reflect the personality of the person who died, because it's actually their old bike that gets locked up.
also, religious v. secular?

Or what he said! I didn't know it was the victim's own bike, though.
― Laurel (Laurel), Tuesday, 12 December 2006 01:42 (seventeen years ago) link
But you know, could be the person's own plastic flower cross, too.

there's one outside the empty bottle from when a dude named esai got hit last january. it was so loud i heard the impact at my old place on augusta. in a sad bit of irony the ghost bike itself got hit by a drunk driver, the same fate that befell it's owner.

For example, if your baby gets colic from cow's milk, do you switch him to soy milk? Don't even think about it. His phytoestrogen level will jump to 20 times normal. If he is a she, brace yourself for watching her reach menarche as young as seven, robbing her of years of childhood. If he is a boy, it's far worse: He may not reach puberty till much later than normal.
Soy could have horrible consequences for little girls BUT EVEN WORSE it could have horrible consequences for little boys.
Won't somebody please think of the little boy children?
