hey goodreads peeps! if you've enjoyed reading my reviews, maybe you'd enjoy reading my book, The Finest Machine. and if you think that's plausible, perhaps you'd even like to fund my writing of that book:http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/n...
help me become a Goodreads Author so i can start spamming people with friend requests etc! any contribution is appreciated. thanks homies!
Goodreads must have the date wrong...silly Goodreads, always having glitches, right? right?!?Oh well.
Happy Birthday/unbirthday.
Thanks for the invite:).....Your profile is quite interesting !
Um, that book about Napoleon's Russian Campaign is only a buck fifty used, so come October, I'll be needing your address. For gifting purposes. Of course. Well. Maybe. I might also ask math questions.
They'll look like Algebra III. I've got everything before that covered.

Impersonation was spot-on! Every paragraph should suggest, permit glimpses of, motion towards a hundred other stories.
Yes, I did see that. Good fun.Did you get the Wallace thesis? I hadn't seen your e-mail address posted in response way back in November 2010 until today.

heh, i hope you've been to my profile and seen the FEATURED "covers are for proles" shelf.
"she-blinded-me-with-science" and "stupidly-expensive" are both great shelf names.Incidentally, I've recently begun using "blinded with science" as a euphemism for smoking weed. A friend bought a slightly unusual toking apparatus that he dubbed the "science pipe". Hence...

ah, i see. if there is, i do not know it. that might be one of the things they teach you upon graduation from library school, or when you first start working in one, i don't know. i may have someone i can ask, if you like...

if you're doing, say, a process flowchart or an entity-relationship diagram or street signage, there are standard designs. does any such thing apply to library/book maps? grok? xoxo

Never mind. I see you already added it to your "to-read" list. I have a pdf copy of the original if you want it. Just send me an e-mail address.
Sorry I missed you yesterday, Dank, happy belated. 30 years, and at the very least least one faithful devout. You've got ~three more to catch Jesus.
I've attempted delving into Ulysses several times now, to no great avail. But I'm moving back up to school today, selecting which books to use as antidote to what the "humanities" professors will try to impress upon me (before I am to attempt my fate-entwined jump across the chasm into the sciences, إن شاء الل), opened the opus to a random page and was instantaneously and wildly consumed by laughter of a most uproarious nature; and I was by no means even processing the text thoroughly! I was just enraptured by laughter. Urrrrghhhh, I lost the page. But just thought if anybody would be able to grok with me on this lil anecdote here, it'd be you ;).
weren't you supposed to come visit in july?? did you stand me up?
Happy 10,890th day alive!Yayy for your large book collection!!
You OWN SIX high-power computers?!?!

I should clean out my bookmarks more often... I just found this, which is a "sequel" to American Psycho that BEE wrote via email subscription right before the film was released.

true Southerners are well aware of Florida's at-best-pretender status.I get a pass... I was born in the Midwest. ;)
Yes, Florida is basically a dick-shaped Bible with a pair of Mickey Mouse ears.

true Southerners are well aware of Florida's at-best-pretender status. retired jooz and micky mouse do not a Confederacy make!
christ i can't believe i'm typing this garbage. i'm really trying to live some kind of sick defender-of-the-One-True-South facade here, aren't i. for chrissakes i write UNIX code and fuck girls in turtlenecks.

seriously, this kind of specious nonsensical argument leaves upon my tongue a taste most distaff and womanly. know your role, jabronie, lest i drop a People's Elbow!

though, point of fact, when i first saw the image i thought "isn't it technically ho, ho, ho!? in that case, we need $((ho)^3)!$ but if it's ho!, ho!, ho! that's right out."
Daniel wrote: "Isn't that still only one ho, Karen? 1^3 would still be 1, so wouldn't ho^3 still be ho?"daniel, you goddamned idiot, the point of it being a variable instead of a constant is we don't know what it is.
if it was 0, it wouldn't be any hoes at all!
karen, thank you for your gracious comment. i will be touring northeastern graduate schools of repute this spring, and do hope i can drop in on you or something.
you know more about hos than i do. please educate.
Isn't that still only one ho, Karen? 1^3 would still be 1, so wouldn't ho^3 still be ho?
I don't know what's hotter in that picture... you or the bong. ;)
So this arrived today... it's what I did with the gift card code you were kind enough to pass my way. *mwah* A thousand thanks, fair Nicholas. :)
Suffering Christ. More than twenty years later, and the Rock-afire band still makes me want to run screaming for my mommy. Something about anthropomorphic animatronics unleashes the Uncanny Valley effect and makes me want to curl into the fetal position.
