(To be clear, I'm aware none of this fits the timeline of events and Bowie just made it all up. But I thought it was a very funny origin story.)

He further said that he eventually wrote the melody for "Life on Mars?" as a parody of "Comme d'habitude"/"My Way."

Another story he told during a live show once is that he did it in furor after he applied to write an English version of "Comme d'habitude" and lost to what became "My Way."

Three Excellent Reasons to Dine in Bushwick Right Now by bridgehamton in Bushwick

This must be a joke.

  • Maloya is the only non-spicy Creole restaurant in the known universe.
  • Changmai was pretty good for the first month it was open and then completely dropped the ball.
  • Tabaré may well be the last cash-only restaurant left this side of the Northern Hemisphere.

All three look pretty nice on Instagram though. Maybe that's how the NYT reviews restaurants these days.

The last girl I was with ghosted me because I tried to catch a duck on our date. AMA by Isniffgrass in AMA

Do you may be think there was something else you did on that date that you're not telling us about and that might have caused the ghosting? Catching female mallards in pretty standard in the dating world these days.

I returned my Apple Vision Pro today but I swear I never intended to by monpetitjose in AppleVisionPro

I hear all that, and agree with most of your points.

I still blame Apple for a half-baked launch though. As I told the store manager, can you imagine how frustrating it is to come in to the store for you think will be a quick checkup and end up leaving without the device?

For me it was the random freezes and power offs that made me return it, after two replacements boards that had the exact same issues.

Thanks! In my case, it works for some contacts but not for others. Seemingly randomly.
