RITA'S CXLV: Lenny Bruce is Gone But his Spirit’s Livin’ On and On

[Jeff Brady]

On the topic of movies, my wife and I watched half of The Road the other night, and it's even darker than the book. I'm not sure I like that very much.

Yeah, that movie really makes you want to slit your wrists by the end.

Which is funny because I found the book strangely uplifting.

I want one of these. DO YOU FUCKING HEAR ME UNIVERSE?!? Make it fucking happen!

Who is Deep Pink and does your husband get to watch?

I'm a Canadian secret agent. If I tell you more, I will have to kill you. Wait... never mind, I'm being told I have to kill you anyway.

Wish I could say the same. Maybe it's that I watch and read way too much horror shit, but as soon as they introduced the spoilers:

barn full of zombies I pretty much knew where that was going, so the weeks waiting for the inevitable unsurprising reveal while so much time and energy was spent on everyone stressing over finding Sophia kind of drove me nuts.

end of spoilers

But season 2 wasn't all bad, it was good enough to keep me watching and I stuck around for season 3, which I'm loving so far.

I didn't see it coming! I am so lame.

I watched The Amazing Spider-Man over the weekend, and like a nerd, I had to write a review. Check out my signature if you're interested.

I've never fully recovered from that movie. It disturbed my Psyche more than Old Yeller.




Good morning, nerds and cat! *twirl*

Oh man this is sooo good... Jerry Douglas, Mumford and Sons and Paul Simon.

Wow ...they are ending CoH ? I had thought it would continue on for years and all.

Apparently NCSoft lost about 6 million last quarter and they're "focusing on their core products" and that meant giving CoH the axe. It was still making money, but they're also developing another superhero MMO and they don't want competition. Rumor has it they were asking 80 mil for the game (no clue if it was for everything, code included or just to license it), but everyone balked at that.

As it stands, it's going away on the 30th. There are a few plans of salvaging certain info and folks are working on a parallel game. It's mostly a pipe-dream, but we'll see how it goes.

Good morning, happiness! The in-laws have the boys! Woo!

Correct! Thank you.

So a former student came up on Facebook feed in the "someone you make know" column. I went to click on "mutual friends" and hit "send friend request" instead. The student was (hopefully was) a clingy and insecure young woman that had a crush on me.

shit.

Woo-hoo!

Wife & baby are going to CA for two weeks in December!

Ummm... I'm not sure I buy this "accident" story. Is this not so young any more ex student pretty? If so, you might be in big trouble with Mrs. The Catwoman.

I would be VERY jealous, except I would miss my boys too much to let them go away for that long. Also, you better fucking entertain me on CBR for the whole two weeks, asshole! You will totally miss them and be all weepy and girly when they are gone, and your weakness will be fun to exploit. Can't wait! Woo!

heh ... I have my issues but thankfully, stalking teenage girls on the internet is not one of them.

She has a big mouth. I am more concerned that she will boast to her friends that "Mr Winslow" sent her a friend request. I don't "friend" former students, but if graduates send a request i will ususally accept.

I will either be labelled as creepy, or get a deluge of friend requests from former students, or both .... nothing good can happen from my sloppy mouse move.

I didn't know she was still a teenager, and I would never for a second think of you as a creepy girl stalker. I thought she used to be a teenager, but was now a young mature pretty woman that you "accidentally" friended in hopes of seeing her pretty young tits.

Heh ... no. She's a senior this year. I taught her two years ago when she was a sophomore. And I am beginning to wonder if "once a teacher, always a teacher" applies, even when they get older. That is, the way the relationship was initiated will always make it feel icky to cross the sexual boundaries. It's hard to explain.

Although I will admit I was also stupid on Linked-In few months ago. My employer asked me to start a Linked-In profile for marketing. So I did. I looked up my high school girlfriend, but later discovered the linked-In profiles allow you to see who was looking at your profile.

It's so hard to be a creepy stalker these days.

Does anyone know if there's a Facebook bug that can cause you to 'Share' stuff without your permission?

Because an uncle of mine has, who uses Facebook regularly but not obsessively, has suddenly 'Shared' 70 photos today, all from pages he 'Likes.' My feed is drowning in just his updates. And a lot of them are more controversial than he usually tends towards (both politics and religion).

I'm tempted to email him to say that something might be wrong, but at the same time, I don't want to do that if he's just gotten ridiculously share-happy on a whim. So I figure I should at least determine if this is an actual phenomenon first.
