Reminds me of the old Horn & Hardart Automats! If you could find a table for yourself you could get your food and eat it without any human interaction. No annoyance from others.

Yes! The biggest culinary fail is the assumption that ice cream shouldn’t be served during cold weather. What a stupid assumption!

I’ve heard that the saying refers to Moses meeting Pharaoh while Pharaoh was in the Nile taking his early morning shit. Why in the Nile? Because Pharaoh’s subjects thought of him as a god, and he couldn’t be seen taking a shit, so he did it away from the palace while it was still dark.

There is a comic strip called “That is Priceless” which every day provides funny captions for classic paintings. But your idea of slightly modifying the design is new!

Is it ironic that Poindexterish means studious, and I had to look it up?
Oops, it says “studious and socially inept.” Maybe you’re on to something.

There’s a great article in The Atlantic by Hanna Rosin about Ashli’s mom, who moved with some friends to a deep blue neighborhood in DC and annoy nearly everyone with their crazy beliefs.

Life would make more sense if people who know what a philtrum was without looking it up were recognized as smarter than their peers, but sadly that is not the case.

I have a wife who likes to cook, and she’s good at it. She’s also very busy. The few times each week that she cooks, dinner is easy. Yes there is some difficulty when we order out and I have to pick up, and neither of us can make up our minds about what and where.

I read this just recently because 1) not being from NYC I thought the book name was a grammatical mistake, (a train? the train?).
2) a friend told me it needed more cowbell and I wasted a week finding out what he meant.
Anyhow, it was maybe more thrilling than yr avg sandman slim book, awesome!

It’s like why the beer costs three times as much in a sports stadium. You have to pay for the step of removing the bubbles.

So I posted my first 20 book challenge to my Following feed, it included the two emojis that allegedly get it to BookSky.
I was under the impression that it would automatically move here to BookSky. It’s been 15 minutes, it’s still on the general feed.
Could you explain to me what I did wrong?

I remember sitting in a Red Barn restaurant during grad school (70s), all by myself, reading this book and laughing out loud. When he stopped the narrative to take two pages to list all of the drugs in his car I just lost it!
