I made it such a fat bear!
In the background are google results for "fat bear week." In the foreground is a drawing of an enormous hibernating bear with snowflakes falling.

Roger.
A wildly vibrant sunset over the water. The water is a bit rocky and reflects the sunset. There’s a pier visible in the foreground.

I remember once going to the diner, and they were like, “You never come in anymore!” And I was like, “Oh, I usually eat breakfast at home…there was just that week when I didn’t have a working fridge…”

A classic National Lampoon cover altered to say "If you don't buy this sugar we'll kill this farmer" with a gun pointing at a farmer.

Also 3 for me, but I know only one well enough to even have any sort of opinion (and it's basically positive).

Dark. By the middle of season 3, it had reached a point of insane, “how will they ever tie this up?” complication. But then they did. Perfectly.

Just incredible. #Eclipse2026
The sun, with a black circle in the middle, sits over the water. The sky is mostly dark, with a yellow and pink horizon. There are some hills and trees in the background.

Just sat down in a packed theater to see The Odyssey. To my left is a six-headed sea monster. To my right is a giant whirlpool. I hate navigating the problems of a middle seat.

In this response to @tinmanic's egregiously misguided argument, I draw on the common practice of referring to children by their first name and adults by their last name, as well as the riddle of the Sphinx, which asks, "what walks on four legs *in the morning*" to...

The final scene of Melancholia. Three people sit cross-legged in a bare tepee structure made of sticks, as a large ice planet looms on the horizon.

Nice! I got the Vario 1945 A-11S Solar (in black). Also no-date, also solar movement. Great watch for the apocalypse. Or a picnic.

I'm so sorry, Sanjukta. She sounds like a wonderful woman with an extremely lively mind, and I look forward to reading whatever else you write about her.

On 364 days of the year, we pet dogs, we walk them, we tell them they’re good boys and girls. And on one day: The Purge.

As someone who has taught lecture classes, I have experience dealing with this volume of people exiting an even smaller space. My consulting fees are quite reasonable.

For what is “sky” but a portmanteau of “scream” and “cry”?

That's an interesting explanation. Seems plausible, but do they not send internal memos or have some other way of communicating that?

This has always struck me as a triumph of the desire to show how right you are over strategic dissent-writing. But maybe that's wrong; maybe the dissent is writing for the Supreme Court that has the chance to overrule the decision, or something.
