It's not as good as the time I got stuck in my coat in front of our old Big Boss but still. I surely know how to make an impression.
Maybe I should just settle in for the long haul at this job. I may not deserve any better.

"mother fucking titty sucking two ball bitch." reminds me that I've been wanting to vex an annoyingly Christmas-obsessed* FB friend by posting "God fuck us, one and all" as my status, but that's just a little too much, probably. So I share it with you all.
* It was carols and religious Xmas music all season, and he continues posting multiple updates on each of the 12 days of Xmas until Epiphany.

Per a previous conversation, the movie starting Michael Caine in which Sigourney Weaver rides an exercise bike while topless is called Half Moon Street.
I learned this by googling "Sigourney Weaver rides a bike topless." It's the first result.

I was talking about Michael Caine w/ you, but I don't remember Sigourney Weaver being a part of the conversation.

when you guys read the reader's "people issue" do you get the impression that they're (mostly) just profiles of reader staffers' friends?

I don't think I paid much attention to that feature.

The Discovery Center kind of blows. Or at least you need to be v cautious and selective about what you teach there.

i am not actually suggesting that you guys take classes at the discovery center, i'm just kind of obsessed with it due to stuff like this "Alan Salami LCSW"

re: talk to anyone anywhere
1) who signs up for that class? how many students? ages? gender distribution?2) what does alan salami do to break the ice in the most socially tense room in chicago?3) what do the students think of the class after they take it? do they feel more able to talk to strangers?
― La Lechera, Friday, 6 January 2012 18:19 (twelve years ago) link
i bet changing your name to "alan salami" is a good way to start conversations.
― congratulations (n/a), Friday, 6 January 2012 18:27 (twelve years ago) link
q: 2) what does alan salami do to break the ice in the most socially tense room in chicago?a: introduces himself "hello, my name is alan salami. alan salami is my name. and if i can go through life with this name, you can learn to talk to people too"
― La Lechera, Friday, 6 January 2012 18:29 (twelve years ago) link
though most of those conversations will primarily consist of "wait, your name is alan salami?"xpost

there are only seven results for a google image search for "alan salami," and none of them are pictures of a guy

i've wondered about that place. i thought about taking classes there - how to do photoshop, for example.
