  4. "There is no political solution
    To our troubled evolution
    Have no faith in constitution
    There is no bloody revolution

    Our so-called leaders speak
    With words they try to jail you
    They subjugate the meek
    But it's the rhetoric of failure

    Where does the answer lie?
    Living from day to day
    If it's something we can't buy
    There must be another way."

    - Spirits in the Material World, The Police 1981

I did not disabuse them of this notion. It was great. I signed two autographs, and regret nothing. #AproposOfNothing

  6. @mwl were you the one that brought the bookstore simulator game into my sphere of consciousness to the point that I coded up a bookstore simulator in C using those rules, so you could run thousands of iterations until you make it to $10 in 10 days?

  7. I don’t think about him often, but every now and then, I think about that one motherfucker at a barcamp (years ago) who—when shown an interesting website coding trick—said out loud, in a room full of people, “daddy like“ as if it wasn’t the creepiest fucking thing in the world to say OUT LOUD IN A ROOM FULL OF GODDAMN STRANGERS.

    I don’t think about him often, but sometimes.

    THAT motherfucker.

  8. You know, it's probably a good thing that I DON'T have any sort of foot fetish.

  10. You know, I really wish we could go back to a time when "Liar, liar. Pants on fire." was _not_ considered a badge of honor.
