Happy birthday, man who owes me letter!

Oh, Kenny. You sweet Southern angel.

Your face?

Poor Q.

Tell her you met him and he was a bit of a jerk. Let her direct any further conversation about him.

It is a combination of my writing and the pen. The line width variation rom the pen hides a multitude of sins in my writing.

"phaedrus what are you doing" "phaedrus out"

Noodler's just released a new line of piston-fill brush pens if that's your sort of thing. I can't be doing with brush pens.

With a nib that yields, you can write stuff like this!

Good pens, ink and paper improve my life. You may or may not want to take it to the same extent as I do (I have spent $140 on a pen).

Are y'all sure that homebarrelling didn't come up earlier than the twitch livecast? Nick Breckon's Homebarrel mod for Skyrim is from March 2012.

Kate Beaton is best.

i had to drink Lipton today and it was not good. It was very weak and yet bitter.

Here it is; both I and my Chinese coworkers keep to imported teas and don't touch the domestic stuff. I can't speak for anywhere else.

because it's terrrrribbbbbble

I've decided I don't like Patrick and that shirt just reinforces this.

I own two corsets and here's a secret: you can wear something under or over them. IN FACT you're supposed to at the very least wear a slip under them so they don't get pinchy and abrasive (and dirty - corsets are harder to launder than a slip would be). So perhaps Elizabeth could have a higher neckline, such as one where her norks aren't in danger of falling out every time she inhales.

I buy PG Tips right from the grocery store shelves. Sometimes they're in the tea/coffee aisle, sometimes the "ethnic food" aisle (in the same tiny section as the Ambrosia Rice Pudding, the mint Aeros and the pickled onions). Don't order tea in restaurants in the States. Even if you actually get "hot tea" it will be badly made (or they'll bring out a cup of warm water and expect you to make it yourself) and probably use Lipton teabags which are terrible. Luftmensch: what inks are you using in your pens? I really like Iroshizuku inks for shading even though they're expensive; right now I'm doodling everywhere with Rohrer + Klingner Blu Mare because I needed a nice cheerful pick-me-up. My interview has not been scheduled yet. Meanwhile I'm doing some web dev freelance and have reached the point where I really need to be more OO, but I'm stuck in a procedural habit.

My chest hurts just looking at that.

New guests aren't used to the way the Thumbs layer their conversations, and tend to politely wait to be asked or brought into the word-scrum that is an episode of Idle Thumbs. It doesn't work like that; you gotta be a Breckon and bring yourself into the conversation. I like that everyone has so much to say that they sometimes talk over each other. This ain't no Terry Gross interview on Fresh Air, y'all. And though I originally thought doing the podcast in stereo would be really strange in my ears, it works to help pick out and follow one person if the :words: get too much.

Communities manage better with comic sans!

I am confused by rainymood.com

Hi! I can't wait to see what photos you new people come up with for your profiles!
