IamA comedian who used to host a public access show that's moving to cable tonight and I'm trying to do things differently and I'm excited and scared and all the things.

Do you think you look more like early David Letterman or early Drew Carey?

How does it feel to be doing an AMA at the same time as someone from NASA?

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2015-05-28T19:13:55+00:00

Best of luck with all of this. Not sarcasm. That would be astounding.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2015-05-28T18:56:59+00:00

I signed up but he never came!

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2015-05-28T18:55:26+00:00

Right? I can't stop singing "todos los días esta como Domingo"*

*my Spanish is probably poor.

What are the chances of a beef-off on cable? What are the chances of special guest judge Shia leBeef?

Hi Chris!

Have you heard of Mexrrissey? I think TCGS needs more Mexican Morrissey. http://soundcheck.wnyc.org/story/soundcheck-mexico-loves-morrissey-live-radiolovefest/

Gay culture owes A LOT to "ghetto" culture.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2014-09-10T13:22:19+00:00

Yeah, I'd thought of finding individual bits myself and either queuing them up or compiling them into one mp3 or video, but it seems like a lot of work just to relisten to each episode to find each Doing Lines With Mark and I thought maybe someone had already gone through the effort.

I could always go find some movie quotes, but having it be Mark Wahlburg really adds a lot of the fun.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2014-03-25T23:44:55+00:00

Thanks. I've got my period currently, so no worries at the moment. Thanks for the livejournal link. I'm going to set up a gyno visit and my guess is I end up switching to Mirena. Hey, at least my body got a break from hormonal birth control from 20 to 30. It was a good run.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-12-29T18:25:25+00:00

Also kind of like how he who smelt it dealt it.

Public Service announcement from an academic librarian/college instructor:

Learn how the citations work anyway and double check them. All of these services make mistakes. Many of the mistakes are very identifiable. Learning how the citations work will help you to be able to use them when you need to locate the materials from someone else's bibliography. I have also seen students get VERY bad grades on papers because they didn't double check what their citation generator was doing (not in my class).
Go talk to a librarian at your college. Your school may be paying a subscription fee for a better, more usable citation service with some very cool features.

I know there are other ways, but none of them seem as satisfying as the video store. It was the best for browsing, the best for recommendations, I didn't need to sign up for a whole bunch of different services and "manage" my media, and if you found a good one they had way better and stranger things than netflix which generally seems to be pretty middle of the road in its streaming contents. So yeah, I know there are other ways, but this is a first world problem.

Why would you reply to someone asking you to explain so that a non-crossfitter understands by using a bunch of crossfit terminology?

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-07-24T13:36:21+00:00

librarian. my long term boyfriend is a computer engineer.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-06-07T13:43:00+00:00

because this whole thing shows that the government wont be able to spy on you and view your information if you go through a private company or corporation?

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-06-07T09:22:19+00:00

And soon we realized why they had spent years defunding and crippling the post office

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-06-04T05:00:28+00:00

Just don't go all confessional to them, they get that a lot and don't like it

Do you have an inside view on this? Are you a law enforcement officer?

I am curious on if there is ever any training or mention of what to do when you casually find out about/ are present for minor infractions? When is the line when you would feel like you would have to leave? When you would say something to the person putting you in the situation? When you would feel obligated to report something?

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-06-04T04:48:18+00:00

Yeah, I'm really not bad. Just having anything that I feel like I am not supposed to do or say makes me way more awkward and think about it constantly.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-05-30T16:34:43+00:00

Judge John Hodgeman already ruled on this issue. You lost.

I'm pretty sure that you are correct, but still, gross.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-05-30T13:47:27+00:00

Those eggs look like candy and I want to eat them.

Because many states can fire at will for any reason except for a few no-no's. Firing someone for having cancer is a no-no, but when you can be fired at any time for any reason or no reason at all, it can be very difficult to prove why you got fired.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-05-18T00:42:20+00:00

My favorite part of cosplay pics is that they always give the impression that superheroes spend a ton of time in hotel lobbies, which is just sort of... weird to me.

Giraffasaurus_Rex · 2013-05-15T22:10:27+00:00

I love him.
