PICTURE POST II!

Happy Birthday, Toxteth! To celebrate, we're going to go on University Challenge and win a video for ya.

Yes.

A video. ;)
 
I can't believe today is my little girls 2nd Birthday. Happy Birthday Kira, I love you so much.

I went over to my parent's house tonight for a get-together with my family for my birthday (I turn 32 on Tuesday!).

My sister-in-law works at a bakery and takes advantage of any opportunity to bake something for a family function. Well, she knows that Back to the Future is my all-time favorite movie and this is what she came up with for my cake:

She went above and beyond! I love her to death for this cake (and it was deelish too!). She also put words on the other three sides "Save the clocktower" "Great Scott!" and "1.21 jigowatts". I was pretty impressed with the attention to detail since she isn't a BTTF fan, but she said she came up with everything herself.

That's amazing! Happy birthday! :)
 
This is not my car, it's a Corvette owned by a guy working in my building. The Klingon symbol stickers have been there a long time (including a large one in the center of the rear window), but the characters are new. I need to find out where he got these!

The best part about those decals is the TOS Klingon. We don't see enough classic '60s Klingons on Trek merchandise.
 
Saw this at a Walgreens, strangled the closest government employee

It gets worse. Now Jack in the Box accepts EBT as payment...

So what?

Seriously, fuck this noise. It's hard as hell to be on food stamps -- it's scary, humiliating, and depressing, and a major part of that is the knowledge that people are judging everything you put in your basket.

You know what? It's really none of your business what people on food stamps eat.

This. I'm one of those "government employees". I'm currently involved in the conversion of our current EBT system to a new one from Xerox over the next several months. There's so much bullshit out there about fraud and "I saw someone buying lobster with EBT". Food stamp fraud is on a par with voter fraud as a valid issue. No - some foods aren't healthy. So what? Find another way to shame people...
 
^Yep.

Also, Tom Hendricks, your daughter has the most gorgeous combination of auburn hair and dark eyes ever!

Thank you! What's funny before Kira was born, my wife and I would joke that she would come out with dark hair and dark eyes. Both Ian and Aaron had blond hair and blue eyes when born. Ian's hair has darkened to a sandy brown but Aaron's has stayed blond.
 
^Hair sure can be weird that way. I was strawberry blonde as a baby, and my hair just got darker and darker as I grew up to the point where it's brown black now. My dad was blonde until his late twenties, and his hair started to turn brown.
 
I had a mess of thick, shaggy, dirty blonde hair as a small child and as I got older it became progressively darker until it reached the shade it's been since, oh, my years in junior high or high school.
