glueslabs: Jessie plays us a tune on her new-fangled cello device. I was lucky enough to meet Jessie, who is stunning, and funny and brilliant and can play the cello, apparently.  Nothing else, just wanted to let you all know that Internet weirdos are the best kind of weirdos. Also, I like how everyone is muttering “pants on the ground.”

Exploration into language
Steve: I checked out your other Tumblr.
Me: Oh, you mean http://www.thebetterhalf.tumblr.com?
Steve: Yep. That one. Weird how you said the whole thing. Almost as though you're planning on posting this conversation on the internet, and in a format that won't allow you to insert links.
Me: And?
Steve: What exactly are you going for, there?
Me: Oh you know. And exploration in language. The negative and positive connotations of a common word.
Steve: You're just Googling the word "half," aren't you?
Me: I'm mostly doing that, yeah.

Not to play devil's advocate or anything, but.
How many of you are actually watching Conan regularly?  His ratings indicate that not many of you are.  Your protest JPEGs are very cute.  They do not, however, sell ad time.
