:colbert: Should I have used the sarcasm meter gif?
Nope, I just decided to run with it.
And you should get your ass out of bed sooner unless your supermodel SO is horny.

Pics of horny SO.

Please.

Nice counters.

I'll get you pics as soon as I have them. I think there's a step that comes before that one, but maybe I'll remember it later. I would have been up earlier but my sleep schedule went to shit over the month long break, which is certainly a FWP all its own. It's getting better though, today I was up forty whole minutes before I needed to be somewhere, and I ate the right pills. Score!

Sorry, I really only care about the counters.

Then this is your FWP of the day, since I wouldn't even know how to check if they're real without breaking a piece off. It's a great place for the price though, across the street from campus, and I can't complain about my landlord.

I'm sure he wouldn't mind you knocking off a piece to send me. Right?

:awe:

I finally washed my Dyson's filters for the first time after 1.5 years of light use -- like once a month maybe?

Ya, so the first filter turned black on one side and was coated with lint. The second filter was almost pristine. I had to touch that shit with latex gloves on... while having my view blocked 5% by the dust mask.

Re-watched Fight Club for the first time since actually learning what a "Duvet" was. My sister forced my brother to get one for his apartment a couple years ago. Hint: it's not simply a "blanket" or "comforter" as the film explains and, being a guy, I'm not supposed to care about or know the difference.

Relevant lines from Fight Club: http://youtu.be/v15d4sIGolw

Dammit! We even got this crap from Ikea (something else the film rails against). Now I feel like less of a man. :( It does come in handy when the cat decides he wants to barf on the bed.

I got some German licorice candy from Wegmans today; just opened it. I was hoping it would be strong salmiak since they listed ammonium chloride in the ingredients, but it's very mild. I guess I'll have to order online :^/

Watching the SAG awards and the sound has a weird mix... like they're using an echo or auditorium effect. Sounds terrible.

My son had diarhea all day. Had to change him 5 times and take 3 baths.

He is 16 months by the way.

Watching Broadchurch and the channel effing sped up everything. Something looked off about the video from the start, I thought someone forgot to edit their footage... then I realized everything was forwarded slightly. Probably to fit the time slot.

There was apparently a system error preventing the processing of my direct deposit form so I was given a paper check and actually have to go to a bank

Had my longest killstreak ended last night in Advanced Warefare because the battery died in the controller.

They did not have any of the miniature doughnuts I wanted, so I had to get a full-sized one.

It was -20 with a -32 windchill this morning and I had forgotten my gloves at work yesterday. So I had cold hands when I got into work.

I'm sorry, but that's pretty third-world... especially the -20 C part.

First-world would have been, "I forgot my gloves, so I bought a new pair, FML, I spent $20 I didn't have to."
