The State of the Chronograph and the reason your all-stars have fuzzy bottoms.

PROOF THAT THE 80’s REALLY WERE THAT BAD:

THE BEST ACCESSORY: This is relevant to your interests if you’re a fan of the chronograph.  

LIFE IMITATES ART: I’m pretty sure I saw an Ethan Hawke movie that involved this stuff.  Also, nifty.

BRAINWAVES: This is a absolutely fascinating. These girls are going to face a life of challenges but they will also experience things we could never imagine.

BECAUSE, JAPAN:

WRONG SCHLONG:  1: I didn’t realize this chain still existed and… 2) Not for much longer if this is their idea of marketing.

THEN THERE’S THIS: Drunk monkeys are apparently in charge of the nation’s fast food restaurants. 

PARALLEL EXTINCTION? The demise of a once beloved department store and the disappearing American middle class. 

AND NOT NECESSARILY WITH KINDNESS…

QUICK HITS: 1) Got game?  2) I blame The Doctor. 3) I would totally use this. 4) Space sperm?

MUPPET WORTHY: If your town is as dog crazy as mine, you will most likely know many people who would love one of these. 

NO: This concludes another edition of “Tim Answers Obvious Questions.” This would probably force me away from what is essentially a luxury in many respects.

ALRIGHT FELLAS: You have been warned.

A ONE & ONLY KIND OF GUY:

THAT ONE TIME WHEN…Mr Met was perfectly clear.

SPEAKING OF BASEBALL: This is not your typical rags to riches baseball story. This reads like an adventure novel. Wow.

WHAT COULD POSSIBLY GO WRONG? Pleasant dreams everyone. 

WALKEN, YES INDEED:

CONVERSE ALL-STARS: Not only comfy, but trailblazers. Seriously, who knew that the reason they get fuzzy on the soles is due to something called tariff engineering.

ONCE MORE…with feeling. And, also, this.

THERE ARE DOUCHEBAGS…and then there is this guy. STFU and go hide under a rock. Also, HA!

ALL TOGETHER NOW: Aw hell no.

WHAT THE BUG?

Strangely stylish.  

THIS IS PROBABLY…a terrible idea. I kind of have a big problem with it.

DOES IT REALLY MATTER? From the “what’s in a name” department of the bureau of “I don’t care.”

IF IT WALKS LIKE A DUCK AND QUACKS LIKE A DUCK…it’s a duck.

INCOMING!
