The authorities do not know exactly how many people have been killed warbling “My Way” in karaoke bars over the years in the Philippines, or how many fatal fights it has fueled. But the news media have recorded at least half a dozen victims in the past decade and includes them in a subcategory of crime dubbed the “My Way Killings.”

Criminy. G., you weren’t kidding.

Haha, “Ready to Go,” the Darren Criss version, from the musical Me and My Dick. CLASSY.

The Kinks — “A Well Respected Man” (It’s four plays ahead of “Skinny Love” … which I’ve reset the play count on, more than once.) [Edited to add: *pointing up in the reblog thread* Who ARE you people?!]

Ideal for NIGHT BLOGGING.

I love being alone. I know many of these secrets.

"M: Kiryu is the way yakuza used to be. We kept the streets clean. People liked us. We didn’t bother ordinary citizens. We respected our bosses. Now, guys like that only exist in video games.
S: I don’t know any ex-yakuza running orphanages.
K: There was one a few years ago. A good guy.
M: You sure it wasn’t just a tax shelter?
K: Sure it was a tax shelter but he ran it like a legitimate thing. You know."

Or, where you can check online for Judge Walker’s decision on the challenge to Prop 8. It’s supposed to be released between 1pm and 3pm, PST, which is when I’ll start nervously hitting reload on my browser.

It’s a well-done service, but all it does for me nowadays is remind me that hardly anyone I know ever wants to play co-op Xbox these days—on those rare occasions when we’re interested in playing the same games.

Le sigh.
