Rails

To all the people with the big C, hoping for your collective triumphant cries of "beat you mutha fu<censored>!"

My favorite from that movie is just before that:

"Just a dumb kid, Hub.  Don't kill him."

You're new to this internet thing, aren't you? 

Me: "I've never been on the new TRAX [light rail] line to the airport. I'd like to ride it just to see what it's like."
 
Lady P: "The airport? It's a big building with lots of planes."
 
Both: "...but that's not important right now."

I ran into one of my former students today. She's now double majoring in chemistry and chemical engineering, which she attributes to having me as a teacher in high school. She said, "I was planning to be an English major before I took your class."
 
Today's been a great day.

As it's Supergirl's show, Supergirl beats Superman.

Fish Guy II, the Sealqueel?

Puns. Chicken-crossing-road jokes are just cheap laughs at the beauty of what should be ...
 
 
 
 
 
 
... wait for it ...
 
 
 
 
 
poultry in motion.
 
 
Raspberries or blueberries?

Batroc the Lemur?

(Apologies in advance for the ick factor.)
 
We game in the basement at the house of a husband-and-wife pair of gamers.  The wife was telling us her teenage son was down there the night before.
 
Her:  He was down here with his girlfriend, and they got the sleeping bags out.  Now he has one of the sleeping bags in the wash - he said he "spilled orange juice" on it.
Me:  Tell him if it's coming out orange, he really should see a doctor about that.

Batroc the Lemur?

Bud . . .  Wise . . . Er 

Maybe it was an online school?

Went to a baby shower this afternoon. There was a party game I hadn't encountered before, where they give you both parent' full names, and using that as the letters supply, come up with possible middle names for the baby.
 
They gave me a prize because my last suggestion, scrawled as time expired, was "Imhotep".

It's the epic failure of the DCMU to hold our interest. 

It's a Giant Crossover Event!

Yep.
 
The Internet:
 
"Oh my god. why does Hollywood keep doing the same thing over and over again... do they not have any original ideas anymore or the guts to change things up?"
 
Also the Internet:
 
"I can't believe they changed something.  You can't just change things in a series - those things are why people loved it in the first place.  They have no respect for their fanbase."

Yes, well, that's because Supergirl has Melissa Benoist and the other shows don't.

Tahiti? 

I hate when I'm at the store, and I think I'm buying organic vegetables, but when I get home, they're just regular donuts.
