I see $75K and think "Good start on a downpayment".
We're not gonna die. We can't die, Bendis. You know why? Because we are so very pretty. We are just too pretty for God to let us die.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I see 75K and think someone forgot a zero.
We went into an open house last Sunday in our neighborhood for a bungalow listed at 750K that was completely gutted and re-done inside. Things looked nice but there were some seriously stupid design decisions made (like upstairs where there is a master bath [no bathtub] without a door [one of 2 bathrooms without a door - must be a thing for them] and so anyone in the other bedroom upstairs either has to use the master bath or go down a flight of stairs. It was more important to have a master bath than to have a bathroom available to everyone up there, really?)

Because books.
See, there were lots of houses in the Central NY area in the $75,000 range. But there are no jobs, endless snow, and nothing to do if you don't like camping/lakes. So, not so much for me.
I want to own, despite the money pit Steph mentioned (which is always true), because I want to paint, and renovate, and make it MINE. Painting is usually okay wherever we've rented; ripping out walls, not so much.
Appropos of nothing, living in a college town means college guys jog by a lot. Often shirtless.

The Oatmeal has me laughing so hard after following that link to another link:
"Penis looks like a sea cucumber poking out of a wizard's robe"
I have not gotten past that text because I am laughing and crying.
BTW, no picture of said penis occurs at link. Just laughter and tears.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.
The Oatmeal is pretty well genius, and has given me a new tagline.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
My favourite Oatmeal remains the deep-sea anglerfish. Hell, it's one of my favourite internet pages of all time.

I know we have discussed multiple personality disorders here, but I'm kinda in need of some information and I don't want to share all the details here. Anyone willing to help me out in e-mail? My profile addy is good. Basically what launched a current situation included the comment "they're back".

The Oatmeal is not looking at the right guys in just T-shirts.

What's the estimated %age of asexuals in the population? Do the corners of the internet I hang out with only seem ace-full because it's pretty trivial to be invisible in your asexuality in meatspace, and it's currently a hot topic of discussion in some online areas?
Also, why is my corner of tumblr suddenly filled with Thor/Loki?
Are people submitting good hot guy pictures to Jesse? Hmm?

Because books.
Can we submit hot guys in just T-shirts? No?
