Anyway, i should keep myself hydrated.

City is pretty cool, especially since I am going to a parade tomorrow.

Why, when I was a kid, we had a parade every day. Those were dark times.

Sometimes, when I look up somebody on Google with my iPad, part of their Twitter link is in a random language.
I’ve seen Arabic (أحدث التغريدات من), Slovak (Najnovšie Tweety od používateľa), and Finnish (Viimeisimmät twiitit käyttäjältä).

I don’t have any of those on my preferred languages list. Very odd.


You hang out with Jolthig, Immoren and somebody that speaks Slovak too much *nods*

Why must you in temperate areas mock me with the idea of mild weather in October.


Honestly? I'm pissed because September should be the first month to be mostly 70s. Damn global warming.

It's why the farmlands in the eastern part of Germany are so vast, because the state farms of the Deutsche Demokratische Republik became commercial agricultural enterprises without breaking up in smaller entities. Their size actually made them that more profitable.

Low key online stalking has become perfectly acceptable behaviour in this day and age.

First time I've seen Turanga Leela being compared with Peggy Bundy. I kinda get it, but those characters are wildly different.
