Pass the roųge, please

Special K: "Zoë Kravitz Glams Up as Catwoman, Colin Farrell Is Unrecognizable as the Penguin on The Batman Set"

b1-66er: You know, I get the same way whenever Zoë glams.

Fall into the building

Special K: I woke up just in time to watch the Blue Origin launch, thanks. A very different vibe from the SpaceX webcasts. This one felt more like they were trying to sell me a condo.

b1: The Accomplice and I are both laughing. 

K: Heh. Did you watch? What did you think?

b1: I did not. 
I was having deep architectural conversations about the sociological impressions of what I call "the crunchy building guys."
(You may not know this, but I did not go to Princeton... my architectural lexicon isn't "far advanced.")

"Okay Google, increase Mr. Wallen's b1 chip holdings by 1"

Special K: "SNL' Cuts Musical Guest After Videos Show Him Kissing Women And Partying Maskless"

b1-66er: Which one?

K: Morgan Wallen, tonight's musical guest, to be replaced by Jack White. 

b1: I don't know MW, but I'd take JW over almost any living musician for SNL.

K: Exactly. 

b1: His response in that article is both worthy and spot on. 

K: Yes. 

b1: Although I don't even know him, I like him better now. 

K: Yes. A win for him.

Out of the gutter

Special K: Four count 'em four elimination games in MLB today.

b1-66er: And that is...
What? Unusual?

K: Very unusual, not unprecedented.

b1: Okay. 
I just have to regulate both my fervor...
... and my vehemence that you watch. 

K: And it's incumbent on me, when I spew sports stuff at you, to properly describe if or why it's interesting.

b1: Good, we both understand our positions. 
Me: bitch
You: witch

K: Life: ditch

The viviparous toad croaks

b1-66er: NYT: 'I Won't Be Used as a Guinea Pig for White People'

Thoughts on Heaven and Bell

<Note to the reader: this posting contains, perhaps, the greatest concept/ line/ personal-passive-aggressive thought to ever appear on KTXT. It's been subtly encoded for your subliminal pleasure.>

As opposed to this one, which is starting to walk toward the other edge of the food madness globe
...having said that, I eat entirely within the set described there...
...(& don't eat anything packaged, so coloring isn't a problem)...

67: This is right at the intersection of nutrition and psychiatry, the two medical disciplines I believe are the least figured out.

b1-66er: Yes. 
I didn't send you the article about the possiblity being blood-let by snorkel nose leeches. 

66: "Robotic pet companions were initially tested on adults diagnosed with dementia..."

67: Nothing like pairing someone with an automaton to enhance their grasp on reality.

66: Exactly. 

67: Looking at Trump's age group he has about a 6 percent chance of mortality on this.  Probably less, he is way above average on quality of health care.

66: I wouldn't mind seeing it do its worst...
If he does a Boris Johnson recovery, the evangelicals will come out of the rafters. 

67: Yeah I have very mixed feelings on this, which I'm not proud of.  It will probably kill someone in his entourage.
 If there is a God, Trump may indeed reap what he sowed.

66: WE FINALLY GET TO PUT MY "GOD THEORY" TO A TEST!
I pray the results are not ambiguous.

67: That's a funny line.

Watching the daze go by

Karpov: Learned days of the week in Spanish today, revelation!
Lunes must have something to do with the moon. ****, does that mean that Monday also is associated with the moon?  Yes indeed. I had no idea. 

b1-66er: GO KARPOV!
You're kinda doin' this whole life thing backwards, you know?...
... Most people get smart, THEN make millions...
... not vice versa. 

Kpi: Don't tell me you knew this. 

<note to reader: notice he doesn't deny making millions, which would be the obvious first play for 'normal' people.>

b1: PHUCK KARPOV.
I'VE KNOWN IT SINCE I WAS 13.
WHY?
BECAUSE THAT'S WHEN I TOOK SPANISH.
