dreezy: Mar 4, 2015; yeah, rip.

Yahoo: don't know anyone who seriously uses yahoo.com anymore except me to check the email address i use to sign up for poo poo i never want to hear from.

Chipotle: apparently all it takes is one freak couple dozen cases of severe e. coli outbreak to take a fairly decent chain to its knees. guess we're all going to moe's.

K-mart: might have been flushed already.

I thought movie theatres were doing bad but they upgraded all the amc theatres around here to have recliner chairs and a dinner menu and now they're packed.

i love theatres with the comfy chairs and food+wine. if only going to the movies alone wasnt such an emasculating experience.

twitter seems almost too big to fail these days. if it were ever at genuine risk for going under, all the lovely news sites that use tweets for 90% of their content would probably bail it out.

apple

iphone sales have been flat for years now, the smartphone market is saturated everywhere with the infrastructure for people to use smartphones, the iwatch is such a flop that apple had to change their accounting practices to avoid disclosing sales numbers to their shareholders, and apple is innovating on the ipad now by stealing MS suirface features that steve jobs swore they would never ever adopt (stylus and physical keyboard)

the apple bubble is going to pop any day now

i have an apple iphone cause even though I hate apple i really don't like android and they say they're gonna remove the loving headphone jack from the next one because wtf.

Right click on the task bar to open the options menu, see the "Search" menu?

It has three options. Those options are "Hidden", "Show search icon", and "Show search box"

I don't know what they do though, I was so outraged by Microsoft's default color scheme that I installed Ubunto Linux just as fast as I could and have been recommending it to everyone I meet.

haha nice parody of a complete idiot. you've got it down pat.

I got a glowing review for a lovely sushi place removed from Yelp because it was obviously written by the owner. he made a dummy account with only the one review and he was dumb enough to use his initials and wrote the review the day after the place opened.

For some reason I thought LG meant "Life's Good".

the reason is probably because that's their slogan in all their ads.

That poo poo aint nothin', check out what my town has.

It has an aquarium, a small lake with fish and ducks, and live alligators. Plus hotel rooms with balconies looking over the store.
It also boasts the largest free standing elevator in the country, that you have to pay $10 to ride to the top of.

you forgot the bowling alley.
