Shoes, Watch, Smoking Jacket… check, Pokemon Go Primer, & a magic trick

CLASSICS ALA KINGSMAN:

(cheers mate)

JEEPERS CREEPERS: Something is happening with our astronauts peepers.

NOT GONNA LIE: I adore this woman.

THE ROAD TO HELL IS PAVED WITH…the mistakes, mishaps and misadventures of our past. How we arrived at this presidential election. It ain’t purty.

YOU CAN’T MAKE THIS UP: Because, um, many, many things.

MOTHER NATURE…the ultimate content provider. See below.

OLD SCHOOL CGI

(thank you)

VIRUSAL: The first appearance on my social media came two days before it all began. And then it was upon us. You don’t know PokemonGo? Start here. But it’s not all fun and games. There are unfortunate incidents. There are discoveries. And there are rules. Also, more discoveries.  For the record, this game is bringing strangers together and getting people up and about. So, have at it. Editor’s Note: As a misanthropic rejectionist to this nose stuck in the phone poke-nomenon, I will sit alone in a dimly lit room this weekend playing solitaire. With actual playing cards. You are all weirdos.

SIX DEGREES OF SEPARATION: The Kevin Bacon game gets an upgrade. So far, I have not been able to stump the machine. But I am only getting started. Editor’s Note II: DAMMIT. Thought I had one there.

…and the infinite sadness.

JUST SAYIN’â„¢: Maybe testing new technology in such a manner is not the smartest way to make one’s way through life. I am not unsympathetic. But I have learned not to rely on first gen tech for certain reasons. Then again, he did say he would probably buy another.

“SPIRIT ROSE A METRE THEN STEPPED ASIDE”

(thank you)

NOTHING YOU NEED…everything you want. I miss this store. Luckily, lots of other stores sell their awesome stuff.

DEATH WITH DIGNITY? It is not just certain humans who choose their own endings. This got my attention.

MAGIC! Missed it by that much.

DR. DOOLITTLE…is alive and well. This is a good thing.

AWKWARD: The world is, on occasion, much too small.

FLYING/FALLING/FLAILING:

(thank you)

CONSEQUENCES: I’m thinking Serena Williams is no fan of this whole Brexit fiasco.

‘MURICA! F$#K YEAH!

WE KNOW NOTHING…I’ve looked at clouds from both sides now/From up and down, and still somehow/It’s cloud illusions I recall/We really don’t know clouds at all.*

DOSSIER UPDATE: Larry will not be leaving the building. He is just about the only stable part of British politics at the moment.

WARNING: SOAP BOX TIME: This is a sport with an impending expiration date. With every early retirement, every post mortem diagnosis of CTE, every concussion incident that happens on the field, they lose possible future players. The owners grift and power will eventually become part of the larger discussion of privileged power and inequality. And it will end. This kind of shit is the epitome of bad optics and a disconnect from the very people who he relies on for his business. Wait. Sorry, I think I need a Snickers.

INCOMING!
