Transformers 2 was the most popular movie when it opened -- does that make America a Michael Bay country?

I'm fairly sure it's always been rainier in NYC in terms of number of rainy days per year. Sorry to *rain* on your parade ...

From Wikipedia: One city that is known for rain is Seattle, Washington. Rain is common in the winter, but mostly the climate is cloudy with little rain. Seattle's average rainfall is 942 mm (37.1 in) per year,[5] less than New York City's 1173 mm (46.2 in),[6] but Seattle has 201 cloudy days per year, compared to 152 in New York. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rain

"and perhaps if they don’t address it, it will just die quicker."
Pun intended?

Re: Reblog with the first CD you ever owned.

That album is still the Jam. Their Greatest Hits (which came out in '03) is an incredible album, too.

Oh yeah, TLC was the bomb -- forgot about that album. Holler.

My apologies, Kapi, and the situation has been remedied. I find tumblr's crediting system to be flawed and usually try to split the difference by crediting the route through which I received the info.

Tom F. Johnson, a totally not famous regular guy, doesn't see what you find so funny.

Oh for sure. Robot advice in the whateverdecadehegrewupin tells you a lot about the man. Great, but also terrifying and insane.

Well I don't know if I am in to them yet, but I think I'll add Eggers and Barth to start off with, then delve into the rest. (Social networks are great. How else would I know what to read?)

Haha, offended much? The author's point is funniest because it tracks my NYT reading arc pretty well ... Bono wasn't around for me, nor do I think I would have cared, but otherwise he hit my nail on the head.

Rumors and Rants usually does a pretty decent job with their writing. Most of the guys either are or have been sports reporters in the past. They're not exactly the leet-speak type.

Great piece, of course. R&R might as well have published "Are you 3l33t enough for r0x0r internet gaming?"

This is awesome. I can't get enough of this story. I hope in the real rough draft Jason stood in as the Savior. And mentions boning in the same sentence.

When I won (or lost, as some would contend) the referenced Quad Stack challenge I went through sweats, dizzy spells and other semi-hallucinogenic states during the hours after. I imagine the trip this man went on after completing this challenge was akin to the Simpsons episode where Homer eats the hot pepper that no one else will by coating his tongue in wax: Something to do with what appear to be Mayan ruins and talking to a witty dog.

CL ads: Sigh ....

On the other hand: Funny / creative as those Bud Light ads may be, their drink tastes like licking a tin can for an hour might taste. But, then again, I genuinely enjoy PBR, so what do I know?
