This weekend will mark the first day of fall, meaning that if you’ve been meaning to try to make time to get to the beach or walk on a boardwalk or swim in an outdoor pool at your friend’s house YOU ARE OUT OF LUCK! (Unless you live in a place where it’s warm all the time.) (In which case you should just STFU because your life is already perfect.) (Except for how you don’t get to enjoy coming in from the cold and enjoying something like a pumpkin cupcake or a warm gingerbread something.) (Actually, come to think of it, I like the cold sometimes.) (But both options are fine options.) (Life is fine.) You should take your being out of luck with those specific things as motivation to do something that you’ve been wanting to do for a while but haven’t. Like watch The Wire, or read any other volume of In Search of Lost Time, or write a song, or get bangs, or make a YouTube video of you doing a bunch of emoticon faces and then upload it onto the internet and have it find its way into a blogger’s Google Reader more than once. JUST DO IT! TIME IS RUNNING OUT! LIFE IS RUNNING OUT! DO THE THING!
See, she did the thing! And she’s doing great! Just do the thing. It’ll be fun, you’ll like it. (Via BoingBoing.)

Are those all real emoticons that people use and understand? I thought there were only like 6 of them. Am I just old? Where am I?
Judging from the evidence presented, you’re either old and senile, or else you’re the lead singer of The Talking Heads.
I think you just got 12 Angry Manned, R2.
*Menned. 12 Angry Manned sounds way worse.
Depends on what you’re into, I suppose.
Yeah, by the time you find all of those symbols on the keyboard and type them in, the emotion is over.
I refuse to believe any of those things exist… unless they’re exclusively used by teenagers that sext and appear on an SNL sketch about Japanese culture.
All of the ones that are in parentheses I presume are about butts, so my vote is that you are not nearly as perverted as the rest of the internet. Neither am I. I need to go back to perv school (aka college)
Well hell. Although since the topic of this comment is perviness, I guess I’ll allow it.
She was prettier before she started making faces at me.
Every time Kelly starts writing inside parentheses, I think of that time when she wrote “(only in parentheses where ideas are safe)” for an Afternoon Links post. That was good times.
That was legendary.
This site has yet to surpass that moment of greatness…
Who doesn’t like winter?! It is the best! You get presents and you get to eat a whole turkey and go skiing and you can drink hot buttered rum! It’s buttered alcohol!
plus I don’t have to be “as thin” as the rest of the year.
The hell you don’t!
Stop facetaco! I’m under too much pressure already. I’m the thinnest I’ve been all week and it’s still not good enough! Like me for who I am! PLZ
I actually realized the other day that I’ve lost 25-30 pounds in the past few months. It’s almost entirely stress, I’m sure, as it started when I moved to this job I absolutely hate. Still! It’s making me look damn good!
Recipe or it doesn’t exist.
Ingredients
1 pound butter
1 pound brown sugar
1 pound confectioners’ sugar
1 quart vanilla ice cream, softened
1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
Directions
1.Melt butter in a large pot over medium heat. Blend in brown sugar and confectioners’ sugar. Remove from heat, and whisk in the ice cream, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Pour mixture into a plastic container, seal, and freeze.
2.In a coffee mug, measure 1 tablespoon Hot Buttered Rum Batter and 1 fluid ounce of rum, then fill cup with boiling water. Stir, and sprinkle top of drink with nutmeg.
By the way, the “1 oz” of rum is pretty far off from what I actually use.
I always made it by throwing butter, brown sugar, cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, whole cloves, allspice and water into a crockpot for five hours, then adding the rum at the end and topping it off with whipped cream and nutmeg.
That sounds pretty delightful, too!
i didn’t accidentally downvote this. a huge drop of drool fell out the side of my mouth and clicked the mouse.
I don’t know why, but I can’t stop laughing at the 1 lb butter, 1 lb brown sugar, and 1 lb confectioners’ sugar part.
Ditto. This reminds me of the fried Krispy Kreme donuts my friend’s mom would make as a kid. She’d cut KKs in half, then butter the cut sides and then fry them in butter. Sofa king good.
That sounds delicious. All these years, I’ve just been microwaving a cup of rum with some butter in it.
Holy Jesus that sounds like sweet death. I don’t think people who live in hot buttered rum houses can throw unhealthy rocks at my poutine, by the way.
My problems with poutine are a matter of taste, not nutrition.
Then, my dear Face Taco, you are not eating the right poutines.
ATTN EVERYONE! Upvote the heck out of this recipe! So I can remember to make it after work on Friday! Since I simultaneously read the Monsters’ Ball and make cocktails on Friday evenings.
Also, wouldn’t it be nice to see a recipe instead of a quip in the ball this week?!?!! Stay healthy, y’all!
She missed my favorite.
Kirby says FU: t ( t ‘ _ ‘ )
This video made me feel like this: 3p–o(_* _)<<<
(I am slightly (very) embarrassed by how long it took me to make such an incomprehensible “shooting myself in the head” emoticon)
Since I hated that so much, I went ahead and watched another video by this annoying young woman and now I’d like the captain to please stop the Earth so I can get off.
tl;dw, did she ever get to You Me And Everyone We Know? And if so, just tell me the time so i can skip the rest. I mean, so my friend can skip the rest. Asking for a friend. Yep, a friend.
I want to watch The Wire for the first time, but I have already seen the whole thing like 3 times. Can I have the memory loss condition Guy Pearce has in Memento but only for The Wire?
GUYS! the thing I am doing today is flying to London (work trip, but there will be fun!).
I wil take pictures of lorries for y’all.
I would like a picture of Gwyneth’s favorite fish monger so I know who to go to for my ahi tuna the next time I jump the pond.
Haha. “Jump the pond” is exactly what Gwyneth would say.
But Apple and Moses would say “je saute l’etang”!
