My mother, and fellow geek, likes to bring me unusual beers and liquors. Last Halloween, she gave the me NYCC beer I posted about. Anyway, she brought me this recently, and it's quite tasty!

Very nice, they have a BUNCH of great different beers, had one a year or so ago that was brewed to be drank specifically for the year or something like that jive and it was GREAT!

ON THE TOPIC OF SUCH BEERS-haven't had Dragons Milk in FOREVER, that is a classic right there.

Now I just have the mental image of a Yankee saying there is "PEE-can" in their beer. The PEE can goes under the bed.

See, to me Texans say that word like a Yankee. I grew up saying Pee-can in SC, and so did everyone around us. The only people who said puh-kawn were Yankees and people putting on airs.

That said, apparently there is no real regional correlation to pee-can/puh-kawn, according to linguistic research. It varies all over the US, even within single counties.

WELP- I just met one HELL of an actor, who for some reason decided to test his "ignorant of everything " character. He apologized of course, but damn I was more impressed than mad.

Anyone in Houston: Micro Center at 59 and Rice is selling Raspberry Pi Zeros for 99 cents. You have to go to the back and ask for it, and it's limit 1. But that's $4 less than most places, and no shipping or waiting.

I left my dog locked in the living room with The Lawrence Welk Show running. I am worried someone will turn me in for animal cruelty.

I don't know if he howls to music because he likes it or hates it...

Every shonen:
"This is a rare ability that few learn. None of the other characters have even heard of it, including our protagonists. It takes years to master and will allow you to one-shot all this arc's enemies."

Next arc: literally everyone can do it. The bag boy at the grocery store uses it to bag the protagonists' instant ramen.[DOUBLEPOST=1474810972,1474810850][/DOUBLEPOST]Also despite pointing out that the previous arcs' enemies and mentors all were "worst or best in the world", they somehow wouldn't or couldn't do the thing.

One Piece is basically the only anime I give a pass for this: because of the nature of it's world (big ocean that most people don't/can't traverse), the people saying shit like this may have a limited world view. So when people are talking about Haki like it's some rare shit, it's only because they haven't gone very far from home.

I'm not a big anime guy, but even as a little kid I remember thinking something like "Wait, so the Super-Sayain only comes once every 10000 years, but now Goku's 5 year old grandson can do it? And Super Sayain 2 is not only a thing, but obsolete thanks to Super Sayain 3?"

I have more experience than my entire 8-officer watch today, combined.

(Supervisor is obviously excepted.)

Out of the entire roster for my watch, only 3 are more experienced than me, and 2 are out injured for the foreseeable future, and the third is fixing to go to a special duty.

Guys, I'm not supposed to be the adult!

My question: Are Saiyans a race of warrior cosplayers? They gain power by changing their hair color, and sometimes by changing their clothes, too.

At least you didn't have like six-seven OJT officers standing around watching as two supervisors and two patrolmen were "escorting" a kid to security...
