ONT 5/5/2016: Everybody knows, ONTin' ain't Easy edition. [krakatoa]
First off, I'd like wish Maetenloch Godspeed on his trip, and I hope he finds much joy and success in balancing work, family & fun while in Japan.
Caring for our parents as they age is the duty of all children, but it is also a privilege in many ways. I am in the planning stages to turn my own basement into an apartment dwelling for my mother, and while there will be hurdles, I am looking forward to her being able to spend some quality time with her granddaughter.
While Maet is off attending to his life outside of the HQ, the graveyard shift is once more stuck with the usual young guns from the bullpen(1) who have so competently and admirably filled in for him in the past few years.
You get me to kick it off though.
For those of you who didn't have to stamina to read Ace's entire liveblog review of Star Wars, Episode VII, please allow me to condense it for you in 3 words: "Lena Dunham's snootch."
I've had this on my tabs for a while. Are you one of the lost Superheroes among us? You may be our only hope to prevent the next epidemic that the ubiquitous use of antibiotics & the overuse of antibacterials is leading us towards ...
...or maybe it will just be good old scientific nano-tech. Which sounds promising but, being the paranoid tin-foil hat aficionado I am, I can't help but wonder what they are going to do about that last tenth of a percent.
For any of the horde thinking there's a future in identifying as a quadriplegic streetfighter, just know you will have doubters and bullies at every turn. FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS. BE WHO YOU ARE.
And most importantly, do not stop filming. Stay gold, centaurboy.
This ONT brought to you by the Common Clay of a New America.
You know.
(1)Do not operate heavy machinery while bullpen ONT.* Do not iron bullpen ONT. Do not hold bullpen ONT from the wrong end. Talk to your doctor to be sure that you are healthy enough for bullpen ONT. Bullpen ONT include no guarantees and under no circumstances assume liability for negligent use** of ONT. With great bullpen ONT comes great responsibility. This also applies to good bullpen ONT, so-so bullpen ONT, and downright bad bullpen ONT.
* Really? Really. I suppose "heavy" is in the eye of the onanist.
** Especially that one!
