White collar vs. blue collar thinking here. She didn't go to dermatology / lady poisoner school for seven years to try to kill her husband with liquid plumbr.

Think the bleacher in Cincinnati who was trying to shoot up the FBI office and got shot and killed for it would like a do over once the whole "Trump stole nuclear documentation" thing came out while boiling in Hell?

Every time I get too into a Genesis song (Phil Collins, not Sega) I start to feel like I identify too much with the American Psycho protagonist.. but then again I fucking hate Huey Lewis and the News.

Let's see: Does this mean you'll never get your fill of Collins and you don't want a new drug?

Ooo, stretching for that one. Land of Confusion keeps on being relevant even thirty years later. We watched a Peter Gabriel Genesis concert a month ago, back when Genesis was prog-rock, and it was pretty good for what it was.

Re: psycho.
Is that the crazy guy that obsessed over business cards? I didn't know there was any Huey Lewis in the movie

What is your favorite prog-rock Genesis song, Vark?

Exactly! Yeah, at one point when he is talking to one of his victims by his HiFi stereo, he asks "Do you like Huey Lewis and the News?" Then mentioned something about the creative differences between their album "Sports" and another one of their albums lol

Anything from the Nursery Crime album

Thanks! I'll now go on Youtube and listen to that album. I am looking for recommendations of theirs.

So this is great. This isn't a random thought at all! It's intentional!

I've done that lol

Don't they have chainsaws in North Carolina? Is it more fun to tie a rope to a tree branch and ball hitch and just rip it down?

Patient: Doctor, the suppositories you gave me don't work, and they taste terrible!

Sign on wall of pharmacy: Patients are reminded that suppositories must be unwrapped BEFORE inserting.

Wait, you're not supposed to eat them?

Hey RobB, can you add this to the avatars please?

George Orwell did an essay called 'Politics and the English language.' He proposes that all sounds should have one - and only one - spelling. He then explains each change, and then as he mentions each change, when ever the article uses a word with that change, the spelling changes. By the time you get to the end of the article, it's unreadable, unless you read it phonetically, in which case it makes perfect sense,

Up till now I always thought that Matchbox and Hot Wheels cars were the same thing.

Matchbox cars are better because that's what my grandmother would give us. On reflection they were probably cheaper, so don't give my opinion any relevance
