@achewood I once had the idea that, if only for a moment each night, everyone in the world was asleep at the same time. It made the world manageable.

I'm glad the Dude and Catastrophe is still a thing, and also that Achewood is not a comic strip about a baby.

Is the cat wearing a hooded sweat-jacket or his pajamas and a bolo tie?

I mean, the fact that PJs and a bolo tie don't go together logically seems to suggest the first but the appearance suggests the second.

Does God have a car? It's a good question.

I'm trying to imagine what kind of car God would drive but all I can picture is either an Iroc or one of those cloud cars from Care Bears.

Aubergine El Camino with hydraulic lift kit and a KITT-style scanner in the front. This is the correct answer.

I'm thinking he drives the red car from MASK. The one the leader drives with the gull wing doors/wings.

Not entirely inaccurate, but it's a lot more tolerable when it's your kid.

Dan savage was talking about this on the blog this week. His conclusion was that kids are like a bad heroin habit. When you're up you've never felt better, but when you're down you want to tear your own skin off.

I LOVE the JFK simile.

Seems Connie has been pondering his hereafter (and others too) lately.

God is omnipresent and hence needs no car.  Maybe he has one anyway, which is the cause of all traffic jams, because he doesn't need to move because he's omnipresent.

I completely agree with the notion.  My son is just like the JFK assassination -- but when he does it it's cute!

Parenting is just like the Kennedy assassination... an interesting subject ruined when other people try to push their personal theories about it onto you.

And the movies about it are even worse than that!

Holy shit. This analogy could go on forever.

I will never understand why LFM has fewer cans than posts.

(It is because I sometimes get all worked up and go through brief periods of Being A Dick about politics. The cans that "wacky wordplay LFM" got WERE there, it's just that "left-wing agnostic ideologue LFM" sometimes shows up and gets them taken away. It is like the summer and the winter, the summer needs the winter to recharge and yet tiny cans of soda blow up when they freeze.)
