It's a phallic symbol.

I believe Scott Adams said that Dilbert's curvy tie was emblematic of his slight uptight nature, and if and when it was ever hanging normally that meant he had finally gotten laid.

It occurred to me that I say "Oh dear" ironically. Like if someone tells me something or gives me a warning about something they think I should be offended by. It's kinda my way of not engaging someone. Like "Judy is showing way too much cleavage." "Oh dear." "Judy is cheating on her husband." "Oh dear." "Tom likes to watch porn videos." "Oh dear."

My thought in that situation is always "that must be really hard for you" or "I'm sorry you had to go through that." Usually at work. I do not say it out loud.

I guess it is correct or whatever, but people who pronounce it "Julia Louie-Dreyfuss" instead of "Julia Lewis-Dreyfuss" seem pretentious to me.

Being as I'm gonna be up here in the upstate for at least a year or two, that'd probably the closest they're getting for a long ass time.

Whatever happened to getting jiggy with it? The Willenium barely got off the ground before suddenly the world was a much less jiggy conducive environment. I feel robbed.

@inev: I believe it's a reference to these 1-panel comics:



Also re: spare time you should toally volunteer at a local bike collective two days a week. Quickest way to learn bike maintenance is to work on as many as possible. Plus once you learn all the basics you can begin to pass that knowledge on. I've had quite a bit of spare time lately and I have been studying this book and spending as much time as possible split between two local collectives.
