Blargh - The Random Thread

[The NZA]

fuck me, but our new calendar thinks there's an awful lot of shit going down tomorrow.

i intend to fix it, but i like that its so optimistic as to negate those boring julien calendars.

so, until i find out how to run this thing right, fuck it: tomorrow is channukah, labor & memorial days, talk like a pirate, not opposite day, and like 12 birthdays.

I'd also like to say that I wish I had an ugly stick and the chance to legally use it.

 

Ugly stick (noun): A reinforced sawed off pool que with nails driven through it, and barbed wire wrapped around the tip. The weapon of choice for certain angry redheads.

 

That is all.
