Wit, raconteur, bon viveur. He is none of these things. A purveyor of cheap mummery and piffle since 1976. Throws random words at a screen for Set The Tape. Bluesky’s foremost Biggles: Adventures In Time aficionado.

Statistically at least one couple will fall in love, get married, and have children after meeting at this event and you can never let anyone know about it

my google calendar sleeps in a big bed with my wife
Does your Google Calendar read through your work and home emails, looking for high priority items? Does it collate across a half dozen work / home calendars ? Does it also check your issue tracking system at work ? Does it check your slack for pressing items? My AI agent does all of that at 8AM

Ouch. That is far too relatable a quote.
Noonan's got monologue in "What Happened Was..." that wrecked me: "It’s like something broke in me a long time ago, and I don’t know what it was and it’s too hard for me to keep trying. There are a lot of things I want to do with my life and I’m so far behind now, I’m never going to catch up."

I think if you 'save' someone's Bluesky post, you should be made to save it to cassette and have to spend three minutes reloading it every time you want to view it again. You're on Gen-X's manor now son, got it?

This was Roddenberry's Vision.
I went to a Star Trek burlesque show last night, and I’m still thinking about the Vulcans and Riker. The femme Vulcan was on first, and did a pon farr themed strip, which was incredible. Riker stripped with a chair. Then they closed with a masc Vulcan, and the flower from Naked Time. Incredible.

That RFK Jr / Kid Rock sauna video (don't go seeking it out, you really don't want that) looks like an advert they'd show in the 90s at 2am during The Hitman & Her with the tagline "Call 0898 DIVORCED DAD now. Liver-spotted men with balls like melting buffalo mozarella are waiting to talk to YOU."

Pretty sure Wuthering Heights would be getting a lot better reviews if they’d used my theme tune that I sent them.
Yes, I know I’m just singing Wuthering Heights to the tune of Blankety Blank but it’s catchy as fuck and will let everyone know they’re in for a good time at the flicks.
