There’s a browser plugin that corrects the bugs and oversights in the tumblr interface!

How not to launch an awesome viral promotion campaign for Missing E, I guess?

I like to imagine the Spirit of Christmas vomits on this house once a year and that the owners are just really laid back about cleaning it up.

10. Here we Come A-Wassailing - For years I thought the song was saying Waddling, because of some cartoon ducks on a disney special. To Wassail is to sing carols, which is weird that they needed a fucking word for that, but whatever. The word assail is in Wassail, which is funny,…

Apparently my hungover lizard brain decided “lapsed Catholic schoolboy” was a good look for today.

When I was younger, I promised myself I would never take work home with me. Last night, I broke that promise. Then promptly left home for a private “serve yourself” Christmas party at my favorite bar. This morning, I woke up thinking, “Well, I don’t even remember how I got home. It’s possible I got SHIT TONS of work done last night!”
If I were a 30 under 30.

#2 is former Detroit mayor Kwame Kilpatrick. Which is sort of what you need to know about Kwame Kilpatrick.
One time I mentioned Kim Jong Il and the guy I was talking to said “Oh! I love him!” and I said “…what” and he said, “He’s hilarious in those commercials! I haven’t seen Community though,” and then I set him on fire.
“Court says he did it to himself, he did, and that’s what really hurts, so he...”

These sound like the lyrics to an R. Kelly song.
It’s Radiohead, actually. But yeah.

Also R got spit on. It was very punk rock.

Saw a local production of Hedwig last night
At one point, there was a half-naked dance number to “All I Want for Christmas is You.” (Now that I think about it, it’s probably supposed to be “All I Want 4 Christmas is U,” isn’t it? Ugh.) Hedwig sat there making nasty comments about the song, Mariah Carey, the dancers, everything, the whole way through.
I have never identified with that character as...

If I was a poor black kid I would first and most importantly work to make sure I got the best grades possible. I would make it my #1 priority to be able to read sufficiently. I wouldn’t care if I was a student at the worst public middle school in the worst inner city. Even the worst have their best. And the very best students, even at the worst schools, have more...

You’re right, I did think too hard about it. I wanted to not think about it! But there were long sections where nothing happened, or where I would get excited for a joke that never materialized, or where the movie threw heavy-handed advertisements at me; all of these things killed my immersion. There were glimmers of fun nonsense — and the parts that made no sense were the best parts!...

Muppet movie drinking game
Advertisement for the Cars sequel or any other vastly less interesting Disney property
Cognitive dissonance between how beloved the muppets are and how despised the movie pretends they are
Make it a double for confusion in the movie’s own depiction of muppet popularity from one scene to the next
Pop culture reference carefully set up, but then squandered with no payoff in dialogue or...

Your article is not “final” or “ready for layout” if it still contains a bunch of comments and tracked changes.
If you leave tracked changes in your manuscript, I will fight you.
One of the comments is “please check this number.” I AM A FUCKING GRAPHIC DESIGNER NOT YOUR DOCTORAL STUDENT SLASH RESEARCH BITCH.
