Clatter, crash, clackCategory: car
Sooo... My car is in the collision shop.
On the way to work on the 33 eastbound. Looking out, hey snow. That wasn't there 5 minutes ago. Visibility down. Hey! What's that ahead? Crap. Police car standing still. Gotta stop... Sliding. Oh damn, ton of cars lined up on the right. Gotta veer left. Bang, front left bumper. Bang, back left bumper. Bang, front left bumper. Stop. Damn. Ok, didn't hit anybody. Gotta get to work. Merging... Funny noise it's making. Hi, cop car. Bye, cop car. Ohh, somebody else slid too. Well that car isn't going anywhere. Driving, driving... Yay, work! Getting out of the dangerous conveyance. Eww, that doesn't look good. Calling shop. Let's get this great day started!

Danke.
I haven't watched much Adult Swim in a while. When you get access to a dvr, you start wondering why you should even bother trying to find something good on at random.

Yikes. Hope everything ends up well!
By the way, I missed the last Cowboy Bebop entry you made - I love Cowboy Bebop! I used to stay up late and watch it on Adult Swim but lately it seems Adult Swim is shit.

Keanu BebopCategory: geek
So apparently they (meaning the interplanetary hollywood syndicate, of course) are planning to do a live action Cowboy Bebop movie, starring Keanu as Spike.

I have mixed feelings. But I like Keanu. He's a hero for emotionally subdued people everywhere. But then, I like Spike too. And I'm not quite sure how that will mesh.
I'm confident that it will be watchable, speaking objectively. But my bebop fanboyism may dash even that. Ah well.
And...who's going to play Ed?

I have seen some cowboy bebop and it is a pretty good show. I'm not sure what the tittle was but I saw a movie version might have been called Cowboy Bebop The Movie, and it was good. Yes he does do some goofy acting where he sounds all mellow and all laid back. But I have also seen some movies where he didn't use that style and he was very good, one where he is like this cop, and then he did good voice work and acting in a Scanner Darkly.

I think it sounds like an interesting role for him.

Perhaps this is why...Category: anxiety
...I'm so socially reserved.
I spent 17-18 years of my life only a few blocks away from this place on the same street. My mother was always scared of the outside world, even before we moved here. I'm sure this place didn't help that much. *mutters*

That is hilarious!
Interesting joke I like the map that is kinda cool. I don't remember where and when but someone did the base system of how it used to be with and updated version that was pretty good.
Gotta love jokes in binary.
When I read that comic's title in my RSS feed I thought it was going to be a joke about how our number system is base ten. Which is the exact kind of joke that comic makes so well.
