We didn’t even wait

Didn’t even wait to finish crapping up the planet, we already started crapping up space.

Space trash!

Maybe it’ll be hit with some mutant symbiote or crazy radiation and form into some kind of transformer trash robot hell bent on earthly domination!!!

Absolutely crazy

Arguing over what gang affiliation a 4 year old should grow up with?  Maybe it’s the new “what religion to raise the child in” argument.  I should ask all my friends with babies (that number is ever increasing, weird.  Though I guess I am at the age where that sort of thing will be a more regular occurence) if they have this argument.

In the NY Times (a little late to the party, though I guess you could say niche blogs, etc. are just early to the party due to their geekery on the subject).

Perfect accessory for this paparazzi generation.  Partly, I’m too cool for this photograph.  Partly, I don’t consent to the paps.  Good on a lot of levels.

My new favorite NBA player

Is Channing Frye of the New York Knickerbockers.  His “cons” of being tall:

Cons

  • Growing up I could never get any of the cool shoes in my size
  • No matter what I wear, unless it’s a basketball jersey, I feel like it’s just not made for people my size (I personally just make it look good)
  • Even though small cars are cool I can’t fit comfortably in any of them. I try and save the earth by conserving gas but I can’t fit in a Subaru or Honda, so I ride in a realy simple Tahoe. I try to do my part.
  • No matter what seat I have on an airplane, unless it’s the team plane, NOTHING is comfortable — absolutely nothing. It’s a mental battle the whole trip trying to keep my knees from the people in front of me smashing them with their seats. I mean, seriously, do you not see the 7-ft man behind you? Do you think it’s cool to slam your chair back on our 330-hr flight?

Other than that, I mean, there really aren’t any other cons. Being tall is great. I love it and wouldn’t change it in the world.

Hilarious.  The blog post with the full list here.
