Yesterday, I got myself an eye exam and ordered new glasses.  My left eye is significantly worse than when I got these glasses, but my right is still mostly where it was.  The woman who helped me pick them out took my picture of several I was considering on an iPad.  I looked nearly human in some of them! :)

My left eye is the same. We would've been monocle wearers back in they day.

Indeed, what what!

I just had an upset Russian ranting at me.

Not IRL, for once, but online.  As far as I could tell, he was mad because I outscored him.  So he spent 5 minutes in the lobby shouting endless profanities at me down the mic, until the host and I got bored of his undignified meltdown and kicked him.

Somewhat unusual though, given people never usually talk in that game.

Congratulations on your monocle and your angry Russian!

I am trapped in a computer lab proctoring a final. I finished my last final this morning (unless I end up taking this final, in which case honestly just shoot me why would I do that?) but have to be here tonight, tomorrow, and Monday for the class I'm TAing.

It smells faintly of pee in here.

So long as it's not your pee, that just means you're having the desired effect.

While we're here, Ornette Coleman died.

I'm not ging to be one of those "he was the most discordian of musicians" or anything, because -- yeah, that doesn't really mean anything.

But what he did was to push HARD at the Disorder line in music.  Unrepentently, and in response to the tacit strict rules of Bop jazz, and of music in general.  He basically said, "fuck you, I'm doing this now", and did it with no apologies. 

I know a lot of you don't like jazz, but this guy was a fucking Punk.  He was a spark in the world.

He sounds cool, like a Discordian Tom Waits, but i haven't heard of him before. Can i get a link?

Rev Thwack

I've heard a lot of people say his music sounds like nothing more than a bunch of people fucking around on instruments instead of actually trying to play a song together...


That's actually praise considering his take on what music is.

Todd Glass popped in for a surprise set at Helium in Portland Wednesday night. He killed. I got to hang out with him for a while after the show. It was...I fan-boi'd fucking hard. He's exactly like he seems from the podcasts and the stand up. A fucking fun dude.

I had had no idea he was still alive.  :eek:
