    Michel de Montaigne - inventor of "bling", thinker and fish-thrower. I think I just found my new alter-ego when I go out to bars in Old City.


    Take that Flavor Flav!

    IO9 needs a 'Humanity Purity Test'.

    You forgot the most important bit of sci-fi advice (from a Grand Master, no less):


    Do not attempt to use your own limbs.

    If no wheels are available - metal - not organic -

    limbs should be employed whenever practical.

    Thank you.


    Random Dada is much more refreshing than political hand-wringing, any day.

    Somebody please call Charlie Jane's psychiatrist and tell him that the new antipsychotic he perscribed is NOT working.

    Charlie? Did you get drunk or something last night?


    I mean, the Michel de Montaigne bit was hilarious, but what the hell? I'm going to shave my head and run around head-butting people. (That is, of course, after I look up how to actually say that line in French.)

    @Smeagol92055: I actually TRIED to get drunk last night... but the streets and all the bars were full of people shouting something about the Dalai Lama being elected president of something.

    Maybe I already told you this. Did I tell you about how when we were drunk at Gawktoberfest and I saw Meredith and Kaila, and I was like, "Everyone on io9 is funny. Except for Charlie. Charlie is really, really funny."


    This just goes to prove that I AM ALWAYS RIGHT WHEN I AM DRUNK.
