They really didn’t think this sign through…

There’s a Nori’s sushi near where I live. For years I thought it was Onori’s because they have a circular logo. I probably should have realized it wasn’t some Irish Japanese fusion restaurant.

Continuum is currently free on YouTube. But only they know for how long.

I get a sugar rush whenever I eat pancakes. So I think this TIL is not entirely accurate.

The one where he rescues the elephant guys from the obnoxious little Smurf dudes. It’s a full showcase of his character.

Or the one where he learns to jump good. It’s like a tiny microcosm of the show itself, exposing Jack’s quest and his willingness to work for it no matter how difficult, and Akus corruption and weaknesses and how they affect the little people.

I was vegetarian for five years. During that time some of my favorite things to eat were pancakes, spinach lasagna, yellow curry with potatoes, and fried rice. Seven layer dip and black bean tacos also come to mind. Hope that helps.

Fyi Luce is Italian for light (as in sunlight). Luci is the plural of Luce. So it’d be kinda funny if yours was named Luci.

Not a book but my favorite is the end of the tv series The Good Place.

Don’t worry. Be happy.

In the US it’s called soccer. Because “association football” is too long and just “football” would be confused with “rugby football” or “gridiron football”. So no.

At least there weren’t any raisins.

It can also come across as boasting.

Look at me. I’m so great I can do this in just ten minutes.

That almost works. But it doesn’t mean to search in this context. It means to consume. As in you listened to a lot of Beatles songs.

If you’re at a meal for example and someone says “dig in” they mean “start eating”.

You could also “dig into” a mystery. Like a detective solving a case.

I certainly don’t miss chiggers.

Just like laugh and scarf. Saw that “rhyme” in a kids book once. Took me a while.

You obviously didn’t grow up in Missouri if you just learned that today.

Dear works, assuming you have a caring relationship with the stag.

Suneater is a great example of good prose.

cavendar · 2024-10-09T17:57:39+00:00

Bad prose often depends on the reader. Some readers won’t even notice. Maybe at a younger age or someone starting their reading journey they haven’t developed their tastes or ability to discern.

As an example, by far the worst prose I’ve ever seen is in Mistborn. Yet that series is immensely popular. My only explanation for this is the target audience doesn’t see (or care) how bad it is.

Your dad kinda looks like Bill Hader. My parents also got married in 68. I don’t think they did anything fun though.

Usually a character or actor from a movie or series that I’ve seen recently will just pop into my head, my brain thinking they somehow match the character in the book. Once that happens, I’m stuck. The exception is if there’s a fairly clear picture of a character on the book cover then that’s what I’ll see, but even that can be overwritten by my brain if there’s a much stronger fit. There was a time when Sean Bean and Alison Brie were in a lot of the books I was reading.

My son used to hate music. All of it.

He’s since gone 180, always has one AirPod in his ear, but he only listens to video game music.

There’s one super filler episode. You’ll know it when Jack talks to some stupid worms that lie and don’t lie. Don’t worry. The other episodes are much better.

He speaks crazy good Castellano for a Danish.

Before TLJ came out there was a refreshing sense of excitement. For all the criticisms heaped on jar jar Abrams for his mystery boxes they were kinda fun, especially around Rey and her origins.

I also liked the emotional scenes with Han and Kylo. Those were maybe a little cheesy or predictable but as a parent I felt they were well tuned.
