DNA seen through the eyes of a coder →
This actually helped clarify me a lot of points of genetic biology. Now I want to hack on DNA. Geneticists, please have organism programming machines within the next 5 years. I promise to be as ethical as I can with them.

How does “Dark Canadian Movies” warrant its own category on Netflix?
Fifteen plus years on, I don’t understand why I was allowed to watch Ren and Stimpy but not allowed to watch Beavis and Butthead — if I were a parent I would be far more concerned with the influence of the content of the former over the latter on a developing mind.

I just know there's UNO fanfic somewhere out there...
So in conversation earlier today I made a lame joke about UNO (the card game), and the non-middle-America-upbringing person I was speaking to had never heard of it, so I proceeded to look up the Wikipedia page to explain it better.
THIS PAGE IS DEPRESSINGLY COMPREHENSIVE.
I occasionally forget that the single greatest favor I have done for myself in the last half-decade is eliminate my commute.

Time continues to pass, sky continues to be blue!
I graduated high school in June of 2001. That was now nearly ten years ago. I graduated college in August of 2005. The same week I got my first job with health insurance. My first salaried full-time software job started in April 2006. That’s half a decade ago in just a few weeks. I totalled my Mini almost three years ago to the day, the same day I got the interview at Esri. At the end of...

comix-till-you-bleed:
Girl Scout Cookie Time!
Anthony: in order of popularity: Thin Mints, Carmel Delites, Peanut Butter Patties, Short Breads, PB Sandwiches, Thanks A Lots, Lemonades and the new Shout Outs
Anthony: don't have lemonades or thanks a lots at hand
Anthony: thing is, I suspect nearly everyone has had girl scout cookies, and should already know what they like.
Me: Yeah
Me: WTF is a lemonade?
Me: I think you're making this all up
Anthony: lemonades are shortbreads dipped in lemon frosting
Anthony: thanks a lots are shortbreads dipped in fudge
Me: What about the Tokyo How-Do-You-Dos?
Me: Dang I want a box of Loving Plentys, do you have any of those?
Anthony: god damn it
Me: I think there is a great deal of comedy in making up Girl Scout Cookie names that could double as euphemisms for sex acts.
Me: And I need you to agree.
Me: I want a Gentle Sammy stat.
Anthony: You are terrible.
Me: Some Great Job! Post-Its
Me: Sprinkle some Sunlight Grandpas on my ice cream.
Me: You have to admit these do sound like real cookies
