I AM UNJUSTIFIABLY PROUD OF MY SPAGHETTI BOLOGNESE RECIPE

YES, IT IS AN INCREDIBLY SIMPLE DISH

NO, IT IS NOT NORMAL TO USE A PEPPERAMI INSTEAD OF MINCED MEAT

YES, THERE IS TOO MUCH SALT IN MY RECIPE

NO, I WON'T STOP SHARING IT

FWIW it seems like a ton of stuff is already out of stock. I couldn't check out with any of the glasses, D&C hoodie, or apron. I was hopeful I had maybe caught this early enough but apparently not.

Not really sure what you might be referring to- any other decade-old events you want to reference to help point us in the right direction? Maybe reference a trollface to get us in the right headspace for the amount of time that has passed?

And it's dark and there is nobody driving And something has got to give

That reminds me -- does the shop on the main website still work? I've been thinking about getting one of the t-shirt designs there, but I have irrational trepidations about throwing credit-card info into the void.

I can't tell if it's actually out of stock or if the shipping options are just hosed up - my totally normal address claims to have no shipping methods available to deliver a glass or a fine work of literature.

I got the same messages earlier, guessing it means Zero Stock, but the item description hasn't been updated (manually, I guess?) to show this.

FYI, Onstad mentioned something on Facebook about how he accidentally broke a shipping table (?) sometime last night that he was working on fixing about an hour ago. Either way, I was having the "cannot ship" error all morning, but I was able to check out successfully just now!

Yep, I got my order in earlier. Kind of regretting not getting an apron a little bit but I kind of feel like I wouldn't use it anyhow.

Out of all of the collected books he's selling for over $200 the only one sold out so far is Achewood volume 7: Kiss My rear end Bitch, I'll Be At Dwayne's and I'm willing to bet its because it has the best name

It really is one of the best sentences in the English language

Like, if James Joyce were alive today he’d tell people that he wished he had written it

I think my favorite Achewood sentence is the Douglas Coupland review of "rear end in Your Pants":

quote:

"In a nation of broadband apathy, the pierced avenues of your local Tower Records are something like a roll call for reform... reporting to [Ray Smuckles'] Ragtime Detention Center is like pacing steadily toward the altar of... the only modern cultural validation which can even be said to exist."
but I spent a huge portion of today giggling at "KISS MY rear end BITCH I'LL BE AT DUANE'S" so that's definitely up there.
