You make it sound like it's deliberate -- it ain't. Stupidity is at a molecular level. (MHO)

I just had a bunch of different things from this place, and freakin' everything was superb!

I've given myself a sideways reverse mohawk before. Ever so briefly.

Thanks! Listening now.

Or does chicken taste like dinosaur?

Nor dinosaurs!

I'm pretty sure I've seen Fragships in Doom or World of Warcraft.

Meanwhile, in Australia...

Hobbit slept with a ____?* parents. * something tall and thin

I would not!

Both of those just made me think ‘Antwoord lite’. Sorry, couldn’t finish either one (admittedly I’m still cranky over pining for CGAW). will come back around for Tracy.

That’s some fucked up shit right there. Did you notice the bottle contains a red liquid, the widows peaks, the location, THE FANGS?!?!?

Still working my way through Oathbringer. Fantastic. The parts with...

Yeah, Roger Waters’ first and second solo albums make for a great twofer.

The trick with fried chicken is to get the oil really hot, like fondue hot. Causes the chicken to sear and crust and keeps the moisture in.

So haunting. “As the windshield melts, and my tears evaporate...”

I think Alex Trebek would differ. Unrelated -- I believe the intention of this was to show what dancing with Anthony Hopkins looks like from the perspective of his dance partner, but it came out like this:

What? No, don’t apologize, this is great. Gonna put on some Black Heart Procession and maybe some Devics.

It’s. So. Beautiful.

(wallow wallow wallow)

Nick Cave & the Bad Seeds playlist, starting with Skeleton Tree and working my way backwards. Skeleton Tree is intoxicatingly depressing so matching my mood nicely. The weather outside is beautiful, though, hard to stay depressed when it's so temperate.

Oh, COME ON, not MINI-ME?!?!?

We were also intrigued by the role serendipity has been accorded in numerous chemical discoveries. Luck has often been cited as crucial to many important findings, but it seems to us that the ability of the discoverers to realize that something unusual has happened—and to question why it occurred and how it could be useful—is of greater importance. In many instances in the course of chemical experimentation an odd but potentially important result was ignored and an opportunity lost. The ability to recognize the possibilities in an unexpected result deserves to be lauded rather than dismissed as a fortuitous fluke. Some of the inventors and discoverers of the compounds we discuss were chemists, but others had no scientific training at all. Many of them could be described as characters—unusual, driven, or compulsive. Their stories are fascinating. Oh, yeah, definitely reading this.
