ouch

lol

i mean, sadface

big chicago sports night tonight, guys! bears vs. packers! white sox vs. tigers with the white sox one game ahead in the playoff race, with sale and verlander pitching! exciting stuff!

big couple of nights this week for the fire too, they took sole possession of 2nd place in the east last night, can take 1st on saturday with a win (and a KC loss)

think i might finally check out green apple grill for lunch today. i am not very experienced with korean food.

kimchee, bbq, bulgolgi

the sum of my koreafood knowledge right there

and I didn't even spell it right

i like korean food
bibimbop is classic like pad thai is classic

there's really no spelling it "right" because it's a transliteration, isn't it?

spose

The bibimbop at GAG was just okay. However, I am unfairly comparing it to bibimbap at Jinju, the only other place I've had it, where it was amazing. I loved the bulgogi but that's a big plate of beef by definition.

GAG worst name for a restaurant or...?

hahaha

Amanda, this news article was linked with the text "Lurid criminal trial in Los Angeles" and thought you might be interested: http://www.laweekly.com/2012-09-13/news/scott-barker-trousdale-estates-murder-trial-tony-takazator/

I haven't read it yet, but I'm finna.

I can think of worse restaurant names, but GAG would always make the top five. I smell a McSweeney's list there somewhere.

i know this is annoying, but can i get a c & d on the irl name?

can't wait to read that article or wear my ridiculous new boots!!!

I smell a McSweeney's

also a bad restaurant name

I am wearing the leather blazer that I bought early in the summer for the first time today, and I'm strutting in it. Black, butt-length, fits beautifully, cost me $15 for something that someone once paid $300 for. I feel like Rick Deckard. Or at least I feel like I look like him. Which is a fine feeling.

can i get a c & d on the irl name?

kept reading this as "can i get a classic & dud on the irl name?"

Carl, perfect day to have a day off. Alas, The Master doesn't open for another week, so you'll have to take a sick day or long lunch hour for our matinee.

i feel like people have failed to properly appreciate this picture
with the weather getting a little cooler and all i am totally psyched for creepy season

I noticed that one! I'm not a usr of tumblr so I do not know how to comment on these things. But I really liked The Hand.

I was very very cozy in a hooded sweatshirt last night, with all the windows open.

i know this is annoying, but can i get a c & d on the irl name?

Yes, sorry! It took me until just now to realize what c & d meant, and then to realize you weren't talking about Green Apple Grill.

i was advised to make a twitter so there's a yearbook editor twitter too
i never realized how unnatural self-promotion is

sorry to be a pud about the name thing

clearly i want to be visibly invisible

You're not being a pud! It is a reasonable request. I'm just slow on the uptake today.

ok i give up, what does "c&d" mean? cloak & dagger?

cease and desist!

oh! doy.

is that not a term?
i just wanted to say please stop posting my name please in a nonconfrontational/nonpissy way

This is the time of year when I need a longsleeve shirt for outside, but our building overcompensates and it is 82 inside.

LL what is the twitter for your tumblr? that's a better way for me to follow it since i'm never on tumblr

nevermind, i figured it out

@Yearbook_Editor

i think i hate twitter

i like-a the twitter

something about it makes me feel like i am just barfing up words and then they just sit there on my lap in a mess
nothing i have to say is important enough to broadcast scattershot like that
like seriously NOTHING

at least on ilx there is a semblance of conversation and topic
i dunno, i realize this is just me

that's why you don't tweet anything important. it's only for dumb stuff.

i don't have that many dumb things to say, i guess

well i'm sure people who know me would contest that but ykwim

twitter! it's not for everyone!

i just miss jibjabbing with you guys here i guess ;_;

personally I really liked the puppy mspaint portrait yr hubs posted last night

my handiwork is best represented in picture form i guess

c&d, keep her on the dl asap

i think i hate twitter

Me too. I tried, but it's not really for me. I like reading funny absurdist stuff on it, but it sucks for conversation - especially group conversation - pics, and events.

I think it suits my brain better than long form discussion. All my ideas start to fall apart after 140 characters.

Twitter is much better for beefs than blogs. Can't go on too long.
