He's in for a surprise

We're trying to get a group of people together from work to go out tomorrow night for a coworkers birthday. When asking around to see if people had ideas, one coworker and I had the proceeding conversation:

me: dude. not a strip club
coworker: Yea I figured it was just not going to happen, but it was worth a try right
me: um....or not so much
me: maybe for your birthday we'll go to a strip club
coworker: lol
me: we'll make sure to find you a really classy place, like la bare's
coworker: Haven't heard of it, still new to the strip bar joints here in Dallas
me: you'll love it
coworker: it better not be midgets
me: it's NOT midgets

Now somehow we've talked about midgets before,so it played into it. He'll love it when he finds out what the place really is.

Wine vs Beer

How, exactly, did wine become so dominant? The shape of American aspiration—our sense of connoisseurship and the good life, the character of our nostalgias, even the thirst imperatives of a nation of office clerks rather than line workers—has changed radically over the last few decades in ways that have helped wine and hurt beer."

the ANEMIX


theANEMIX
is a modular, customizable lighting system inspired by the bioluminescence of deep-sea creatures that produces 3D effects in space. It uses an easily modifiable panel composed of a reflective and a luminescent layer, which is LED-powered, to produce its effects.

All I know is how much I want a room set up with this on the walls.

They also have horse sashimi...


From the land of Wasabi Beer and Soy Sauce Ice Cream comes Pepsi Cucumber Ice.

Looks fantastically disgusting. I have enough problem tasting cucumber all day if I eat any, I can only imagine the pain that would result with the addition of carbonation. Ew.

Comfort is Key

There is something very disconcerting and wrong about taking the stairs and seeing an abandoned underwire from a bra on the landing between floors. This would be more acceptable if this took place in an apartment building, a mall, etc. But to see it in your workplace just starts the ball of questions rolling.

Who does this? And what gets me more is that my job is primarily not-thin women in the entire building. But this cup wire could not have been larger than a B or C. So there is either a skinny girl wandering around with one boob sagging, or a large flat-chested women with the same problem, albeit likely less noticeable. Amplified by how few people take the stairs, I'm almost more curious than deterred to discover who discarded it.

But I'm even more interested in who will pick it up.
