the return of the bunny

i've been to 2 of these. you've been to at least 1.

i'm going to do #23 from now on.

an asian american actor died. he was in die hard and voiced General Li in Mulan. Why did they feel the need to get asian american actors to voice characters in mulan?

i feel like the mentality that this article is combating is why a lot of americans are fat. it's the guilt of eating and then crazy starvation that makes the body retain fat because of all the stress.

seems like a good thing to have in my back pocket with all this traveling.

a burning restaurant patron question

1. well, but wouldn't this be perfect for that bright eyes singer guy? also that star wars kid for sure. but yes, censorship without limits would be bad.
2. yeah, that would be not ideal.
3. i think i'm going to courthouse exclusively from now on.
5. i have no problem with people paying kim kardashian for whatever they think she's worth. i guess i have no problem necessarily with chelsea clinton because i don't think hillary will get elected and i don't think that  inviting chelsea to speak really curries that much favor with the clintons, who have tons of rich people trying to give them money. maybe that's the wrong way to think about it....
4. empathy seems to be the answer to so many things. maybe that's why there are so many love songs.
5. seems to have gotten lost in the hubbub. poor mitt.

3. tons of snark. "thinks" will work. i'm not sure these are the best ideas to handle poverty but he may be using a strategic conservative approach to obtain widespread support and maintain budget-neutrality. i applaud him for trying particularly since it's not a very sexy issue right now.
4. gah! wish i had done the one in nova scotia.
5. yeah that was surprisingly depressing.
6. i mean it's social science so shouldnt' we just question it all the time always?
7. i don't know what to think about this except sometimes the kardashians get it right.

I Still Like Things Too...

The Situation has a new show, and it sounds as if he's trying to make it boring.

I posted this from Grantland's Rom-Com Week.

Here are some more good ideas from Paul Ryan.  I don't appreciate the subtle snark, though.  Do you notice it?

I want to drive most of these, and we have driven one!

This is a little too true for comfort.

I might get in trouble for posting this... but I think it's worth thinking about.

This will either give you a revived appreciation for Kim Kardashian or be the nail in the coffin.

Q&A

This doesn't seem like the right answer.

Happy 4th of July, everyone!

Would this get you go to the movies more?

Let's come together and make fun of these people. :)

One of my college classmates takes on celebrity - this probably adds to our conversation.

Apparently scientists have studied apologizing.

I could have told people this in 2012!

1. But what was their intent?  I think there's a principle that people are starting to develop that holds that you're not allowed to make fun of a culture or race unless you are a part of it.  It makes some sense as a presumption, but I wonder whether it's going too far.

2. I always liked NIN.

3. They're real, and they're spectacular.

4. The first one looks pretty yummy. I did the second one at my cookout!

5. I will do all of these things.

6. Those apps probably do more to level the playing field and eliminate great finds than anything else.  It takes all the benefit out of pounding pavement.

7. Bears rule and bunnies drool!  Just kidding - your tagline is way better than anything I would have come up with.

1. yeah, i didn't get that really. beer is for pizza.
2. haven't seen it yet but i'll be on the lookout! although there are always more and more reasons for me to stay out of dc (like the traffic, the people, the government, etc).
3. i couldn't see that article but i looked him up and his pedigree is pretty impressive.
4. that was crazy to me. i was just "put it down!" the whole time. and i'm type A.

6. we will have our avocado ice cream someday! in other news, i got my stand mixer but i don't really have any reason to use it and it's huge. should i just sell it? buy it again at a time when i want it?
7. but what would your tagline have been?
