Something about John Cena’s face just freaks me out

When people end a message with "Stay tuned."

[Jorge]

Hahaha

[Ello Sailor]

Big things coming soon, Joe. Watch this space.

[epilogue]

Probably even more irrational is that "watch this space" doesn't bug me.

Man, I miss John Ritter too...

Everything that has been my lenny experience has led me to believe we’d like each other, particularly that you would like me. Until now.

It probably has to do with me being a shy, humble person, and also being alone most of the time.

I think I've ranted about this before, but the technology around appointment reminders is driving me bonkers!

I have a doctor's appointment that the staff watched me put into my phone calendar while I stood in front of them, and STILL I get 2 texts, an e-mail, and a phone call, all of which want me to respond in some way or another to confirm that I got them.

Fuck off! I'm an adult, and I know how to write shit down.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Lol, this came up yesterday to the point where I said something. My dog had a vet appointment. I received 4 texts in the last two weeks asking me to confirm. I did each time, for fear of having the appointment cancelled if I didn't. When I was checking out yesterday, I asked if I could pay a little more to not have so many reminders sent (he has to go back Monday). They kind of laughed but I said I was serious, it is too many.

There is a wolf in me . . . fangs pointed for tearing gashes . . . a red tongue for raw meat . . . and the hot lapping of blood—I keep this wolf because the wilderness gave it to me and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fox in me . . . a silver-gray fox . . . I sniff and guess . . . I pick things out of the wind and air . . . I nose in the dark night and take sleepers and eat them and hide the feathers . . . I circle and loop and double-cross.

There is a hog in me . . . a snout and a belly . . . a machinery for eating and grunting . . . a machinery for sleeping satisfied in the sun—I got this too from the wilderness and the wilderness will not let it go.

There is a fish in me . . . I know I came from salt-blue water-gates . . . I scurried with shoals of herring . . . I blew waterspouts with porpoises . . . before land was . . . before the water went down . . . before Noah . . . before the first chapter of Genesis.

There is a baboon in me . . . clambering-clawed . . . dog-faced . . . yawping a galoot's hunger . . . hairy under the armpits . . . here are the hawk-eyed hankering men . . . here are the blonde and blue-eyed women . . . here they hide curled asleep waiting . . . ready to snarl and kill . . . ready to sing and give milk . . . waiting—I keep the baboon because the wilderness says so.

There is an eagle in me and a mockingbird . . . and the eagle flies among the Rocky Mountains of my dreams and fights among the Sierra crags of what I want . . . and the mockingbird warbles in the early forenoon before the dew is gone, warbles in the underbrush of my Chattanoogas of hope, gushes over the blue Ozark foothills of my wishes—And I got the eagle and the mockingbird from the wilderness.

O, I got a zoo, I got a menagerie, inside my ribs, under my bony head, under my red-valve heart—and I got something else: it is a man-child heart, a woman-child heart: it is a father and mother and lover: it came from God-Knows-Where: it is going to God-Knows-Where—For I am the keeper of the zoo: I say yes and no: I sing and kill and work: I am a pal of the world: I came from the wilderness.

watching people text their buddies on movies and TV shows and getting those silly pop-up graphics so that we know what they're writing

I'll tell you what's better for immersion: just... not doing that

Oh, I was just thinking how much I like that earlier, while watching Beef.

It's the equivalent of showing you a written letter in older movies, or an email or whatever. It's perspective; what the character is seeing. Why not show it?
