Like Dylan in the Movies

I just ran into a coworker and he said, “What’s up?” and I said, “Going to the bathroom!” flashed a big smile and gave a thumbs up.

Oof me.

“People who don’t have money don’t understand the stress,” said Alan Dlugash, a partner at accounting firm Marks Paneth & Shron LLP in New York who specializes in financial planning for the wealthy. “Could you imagine what it’s like to say I got three kids in private school, I have to think about pulling them out? How do you do that?” —

“Middlesex County has grown up as the baby boomer middle and upper middle class children of Union county blue collar workers fled the Newark riots and urban blight. These liberal boomers are the locusts of NJ fleeing the land that they themselves destroyed. Even the ones that aren’t liberal in all aspects of their life are fully prepared to “go along to get along” in a liberal dominated world. They would never run the risk of incurring Leviathan’s wrath by standing up to it.” —

But I said yes anyway

Today at the cafeteria at work, I asked for an Italian hoagie and the guy got a big smile and was like, “South Philly style?” It felt vaguely dirty.

“One 73-year-old inmate stands by a gate most mornings, waiting for his long-dead mother to pick him up. Sometimes he refuses to shower, afraid of missing her. Mr. Evers coaxes him inside, telling him that his mother “wants you to shower before she gets here.” —

I lied. THIS is the saddest paragraph I’ve read in recent days.

“Gold Coats get harassed and called snitches for seeming to side with prison officials and because of the perks they receive. In the dining hall, to help dementia patients who, as Mr. Burdick says, “start forgetting basic things like what is a spork for,” Gold Coats sit with them at special “slow eater” tables, where meals are allowed to stretch beyond the usual 10 to 12 minutes.” —

"Mandelstam, Mayakovsky, Nabokov, Pushkin."

You don’t realize your book collection is so pretentious until you hear yourself saying, “Baudelaire, Beckett, Camus.”

“Once they’re on the mission, Jed Eye hijacks the Hoopty and strands Morris and Ty on a deserted asteroid. After they are picked up by a little old lady who lusts after Ty, our heroes hail a space taxi and track Jed Eye to the planet Remula, where he has gone to retrieve his buried treasure. Jed Eye, who has the ability to change his shape, makes himself look like Morris and manages to capture Ty.” —Homeboys in Outer Space - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tyler Perry’s Waiting for Godot

“In Baby Moses, the player controls Miriam, Moses’ sister as she tries to save her brother from the Pharaoh’s decree that all male Hebrew children be killed. In order to do this, the player carries Moses from one end of the level to the other, in a manner quite similar to the way in which characters in Super Mario Bros. 2 carry vegetables. Moses can be thrown around without harming him, but enemies cannot be harmed in any way. The adversaries attempt to throw Moses into the Nile. If the player completes the level without Moses, the game says “Good work, but you forgot Baby Moses.” and the level must be restarted.” —Bible Adventures - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
