or one of those is the name of the posing owl? who knows!
Such a good photo, it took TWO photographers to make it.
When they seem to think it's socially acceptable to scroll while hanging out with other people. I usually give the benefit of the doubt--"oh they're responding to a text....... right? oh damn, they are scrolling? and I'm sitting right here with them?"
Maybe like 20 years ago, my partner and I were at a couple-friends' apartment on a hot sweaty summer day. The four of us sitting in a small circle on the hardwood living room floor, smoking a bowl.. Nothing but the sound of the flicking lighter, and the squeaky hum of the ceiling fan providing us with some margin of relief from the heat. Ahh...
Then boom. The ceiling fan's loose screw squeaked its last squeak and the whole fixture fell, heavy-ass motor assembly and all, exactly in the middle of our circle. One of the wooden blades nicked my friend on the way down for a bloody eyebrow. But the heavy middle part, which could've killed any of us, landed right in the middle of our little arms-length bowl circle. This wasn't one of those skinny modern fans you install by yourself.. The thing was freakin' heavy.
"Whoa."
Was there a laugh track? :)
Yeahhh.... I knew that going in, and I think I'm ok with it. Ask me again when I finish book 2 though :)
I'm currently devouring The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss, and it's every bit as good as my friends said it'd be. If you're into fantasy/Witcher kind of stuff, it's brilliant. Heck, it's probably great even if you're not.
I recently finished the 3rd and 4th books of Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles, which have been fun. I'm not sure if I'll continue them anytime soon though. So many other books to read.
Yeah, the Culture novels are great! I've only read a couple of 'em (including PoG), but want more.
Is there a story to that? You can't just leave us hanging.
That's really nice. The graininess gives it an "old photo" vibe -- was that on purpose? (if not, how/why so grainy?)
