Look, I can't have babies anymore (with my preferred sperm donor >.>). So I have to get my squees from other people's babies.

It's nice to hand them back when they're cranky, stinky, or both. Also, I like sleep.

But there is nothing like the smell of a freshly washed baby.

Why the fuck does Aunt May call them Wheat Cakes? ALL pan-cakes have wheat in them, did she not get the memo? Is this some weird Earth 616 lingo?

Using an odd choice of language in a movie places the character in a particular time/place or helps cement their characterization. Aunt May is supposed to be "homey" which, to a lot of the US, could be old southern hospitality. "Wheatcakes" hearkens back to not only to that characterization, but simultaneously reminds some viewers of the depression and the deprivation of the time that required less than ideal substitutions in common foods.

To Aunt May, being able to serve wheatcakes is a blessing, and she is honoring those she is serving, while the script is also cementing the idea that Aunt May represents home, and all that goes with that feeling of comfort, safety, and peace.

Or the script writers are a bunch of looneys.

But then I'm not entirely sure what you're talking about, other than it's probably a reference to some spiderman something or other, so I could be way off base. Perhaps she's an alien, and is having trouble with american words.

Got an email from someone who used to be on here but rage quit. Seems he's got an IndyGoGo account set up to try and raise money. He needs $3000 so he can move to LA...to become an actor.

I did not give.

Rage quit, huh? Well that narrows the field down considerably. Best of luck to him, and I say that with all sincerity.

Yup. Plenty of people from around here we don't see anymore I'd gladly help, though probably not the rage quitters. let me know if Philosopher B wants to go to California :)

So 3000 bucks to move to LA but end up living well outside the city and waiting tables.

Sitting in the hospital waiting room and using a slide rule to calculate the area of circles for fun.

People are avoiding me for some reason. ...

well except for this one lady. I put my coat and purse and stuff next to him and she sat on the far end of the same couch. So when I came out in my sexy gown, I couldn't sit with him or my stuff. I had to sit across a wide aisle and holler over to him.

CLUELESS.

Why does my phone want me to view @PatrThom 's profile? I've been browsing & 4 times now it's popped up the link to his profile page. No-one else's just Pat's. I'm sure he's a nice enough person but it's a matter of principle now - screw you phone I won't look at that

So, anyone seen any interesting/funny April Fools jokes on the internet?

YouTube has launched their all-new 360° SnoopaVision, which is kinda funny I guess.
Blizzard has announced Hearthstone: the MMO which sounds like it's destined to fail, who'd play that? (and nothing for Diablo players, boooh)
Other than that, haven't seen anything really...

Oh man, Hearthstone the MMO, I bet that could easily get 10 million+ subscribers.

I sent an email yesterday to a client and ALMOST hit the mic drop. But it looked different so I read it. I figured it would be inappropriate so I clicked the normal send. So while I feel for those people, they need to take SOME blame. Like people who click "Reply All" - it's not that fucking hard to take a couple seconds and read what you are clicking before you click.

So...victim blaming, but I stand by it.
