  1. “Biff, did you forget something back at the office last night?”

    JB, funny! No, since riding home is so fast for me, I often go back and forth over the bridge a few times after work to get some exercise. I think I did it four times yesterday.

  2. Yeah, I agree Nokilssa – but isn’t it a little bit ridiculous that we live in a place where people can feel “poor” while they are infact the top 1.5% of earners in the country?

  3. Rob, I’ve seen you “spaz out” before, and trust me, you didn’t just do it in the Ditmas Park thread. Good thoughts and potentially good thread there.

    I especially liked that mister B jumped in with one of my biggest pet peeves: This notion that middle class (or upper class, or poverty) can be defined by feeling. That how one feeels about making a particular amount of money should be the barometer to his class level, rather than factual or descriptive boundaries, objectively or quantifiably set OUTSIDE of one’s subjective experience.

  4. I am truly gutted to have spent four minutes and 19 seconds of my life, in a stupor of suspended, slack jawed wonderment, watching that video. I just couldn’t look away from the darkened, big-brotherly montage. The beat, the drama, the melancholic pain… I think I’m 16 again. I’m not kidding. Lord.
