"The first known documentation of rum production at the Appleton Estate is dated 1749, however the origin of the Estate dates back to 1655 when the English captured Jamaica from the Spaniards. During the English empire, when rum was transported back in barrels, it was discovered that the time spent in the barrel, combined with the gentle rocking of the ship, allowed for smoother, tastier rum." - appletonrum.com

Internet, I have a crush. A hugenormous crush that I thought I had successfully quelled but no, my quelling was sub-par and now there's cake and oh fuck Internet, I don't know which way is whatever any more.

So how am I gonna play it?

Pimp smooth.

Yeah that's right. I'm into my shit, happy with my life, and needing nothing right now. So there, world.

Two recent dude-stoppages:

1. Dude stops me because I'm wearing a Cobra t-shirt and he's like "do you even know that show?" And I'm like "yeah I watched it all the time" and he's like "what, how old are you?" and I say "thirty" and he's like "man, you look way older than that." FUCK THAT GUY!!

2. Dude stops me because he sees me reading Buffy and he's all like "do you just like Buffy or are you a comics fan?" and I'm like "both" and he's like "then you should read Transmet" and then proceeds to have a really worthwhile, generous conversation with me about the stuff that he's into and the stuff that I'm into and we talk about Powers and Y the Last Man and all the stuff that we absolutely love and anyone who says that two dudes can't get all emotionally available with one another at the drop of a hat is a lying liarpuss.

Last night I had a dream about the twin girls in the first boat you see in the land of the dead in Pirates wherein Gore Verbinski had made a whole other movie just about them but that movie was more like The Ring and the girls were that little boy and maybe I was Gore Verbinski and why are those girls in the movie anyway holy fuck I've had too much coffee now bye.

Matt [speaking about Death Star cufflinks]: I think the Death Star's a pretty good symbol.
Adam: But then you're always evil guy. What about the twin suns of Tatooine?
Matt: But what's interesting about a sun?
Adam: It's... um... hydrogen synthesis.
