Know what always makes me chuckle? The continuing degradation of the Will Smith "I saw that going differently in my head" meme.
 
So, update on the Starbucks girl. I invited her to join me and some friends to play pool tonight. I asked her early last night, in fact (via a Facebook message).

Almost 24 hours later and she hasn't responded while still posting some things on Facebook.

So yep, I give up. That's okay. I think it's the universe getting revenge on me for not responding to a girl I met at some recent assertiveness workshops. She was trying way too hard, though. She'd asked me out three times, two of which I politely declined. When she asked me a third time, I didn't respond. I felt bad, but she came on way too strong, especially when I wasn't interested at all.

Anyway, in related news, for some insane reason, I made a profile on Plenty of Fish and got a promising first message from a gal yesterday. Onwards and upwards, I guess.
 
Well, to be fair, not everyone has Facebook Messenger on their phones, and for some stupid reason (probably related to money) they are seperate on a phone, so she could be posting to Facebook without ever seeing your message.
 
There are so many abandoned houses in my neighborhood, its creepy . One house still had a "Beware of Dog" poster, but any dog behind that fence is probably dead. Refrigerator doors, stripped tires, a kiddie pool with a frisbee in it, not a damn sign of life...but I did meet an old friend from High School today, that's something!

Just sayin, every single facebook message I've ever sent to someone who wasn't a "friend" was never answered, and I suspect, never seen.
 
My cousin's wife is a minor (very minor) celebrity in Taiwan. She used to be a presenter on TV, and still gets invited sometimes to talk shows as a presenter or a guest. A few nights ago she was on TV again as a guest on a talk show, and for some reason the cameras kept avoiding her. Like, she was sitting in the middle of four or five invited guests, and the camera angles would always be aimed at the guests on either side of her, instead of at her. She also didn't get a chance to say much on the show, just a few sentences at most. Not sure if she was deliberately excluded from the discussions, or if her comments were edited out later on (I suspect the latter). I was all like, "Huh, does the director hate her or something?"

Anyway, it occurs to me that this is probably how Matt Damon feels when it comes to Jimmy Kimmel.

She just needs to revive Four Stars and get Matt Damon to co-host. (I bet Mr. Z has his old routine costumes around somewhere...)

In theater lighting we'd call this a black hole. You'd dynamically lower the lighting in the area of the stage of the actor, so a reverse spot light of sorts. Very difficult to do well, but a neat effect when called for.
 
I had the most bizarre encounter with an old man at the post office today. I was there mailing something and he starting talking to me about what I liked to drink. When I said I didn't drink he said well I guess you don't smoke then either. He looked very put out that I don't do either. Super weird.
 
I have to pee, but my favorite song just came on Pandora.

Always the one to invite himself:notes:

Oh wait. You said Pandora.
 
I'm going to guess it's the girl that messaged him on plenty of fish. Either that, or he just likes to randomly quote himself.
Psh. No. That's ridiculous. Why would I randomly quote myself?
Jesus Christ, I'm getting a headache trying to understand all this.
See? Me from last week agrees!
Fixed that for ya.

No, wait, hang on...
Hey! You stay out of this, me from four years ago! None of that jibber jabber from you![DOUBLEPOST=1490881261,1490881095][/DOUBLEPOST]

Um, guys? I think Nick from 2 minutes ago is going insane.
 
I'm concerned Nick is turning into Haru. Please don't kill the one that can read!!!

( Yes, this only makes sense if you've watched 50% Off. )
 
I was in a public restroom and man came in, washed his hands, and then stepped up to the urinal, and my first thought was "Wow, I bet his dick is immaculate".

I didn't verify...
