Hi.

My name is Alison, I live in Los Angeles.

Genius.

Genius.

I worked in a hardware store for three years during college.  I can rekey a lock in under four minutes.

Rekey part 2.

vromans:

Part 3 in our Eating Animals series, where we get into the arbitrary nature of most carnivores.  Among the issues explored:  will I eat my dog, why don’t we eat horses, why do we eat pigs, and so much more.

All of these videos have been part of a week-long examination of our eating habits as part of our preparation for Jonathan Safran Foer’s appearance at our store on Sunday, November 8.  If you’re in Southern California, please join us for what ought to be an incredible evening of discussion.

Luggage Design Concept of the Day: “Suited Case” by designer Erik De Nijs for Dutch Design Week 09 — a 4-piece upholstered luggage set that can be pieced together to form a couch.
You know, for those really, really long layovers.
[via.]

Never go full retard.

This is exactly what I’ve been looking for, for those times when I can afford four fucking bags but not a small sofa, or those other times when I am travelling, need four fucking bags, am willing to compromise on the functionality and manageability of every one of them, have a really long time to jerk around, and can’t find anywhere reasonable to put my ass.
This reminds me of when everyone in my fourth grade class was instructed to draw an invention. I designed an amazing machine involving conveyor belts, gears, funnels, pulleys, three kinds of heating devices - the works. What did it do? It popped fucking popcorn.

There is something to be said for creative virtuosity and ingenuity for the sake of imagination and artistry.  I think it’s pretty great, myself.

George Costanza taught the Yankees everything they know

“Yeah, in six games.”

You don’t have to say it out loud, but c’mon.  You like the Yankees a little.  C’moooooon.  You do.

Now he’s just being mean.

So, Alison and I made a friendly baseball bet and I lost.

I am a man of my word so here is the pic of me in all of my glory.

THE DODGERS ARE THE BEST. BLAH BLAH BLAH. HURRAH!

Oh, Mike.  You are amazing.  And the Giants still suck.
