I really have very little interest in this thing. I'm sure it will be fun, but...meh. The book was not that great. |

Yeah, I figured that it would be at this point.
That being said, there's still a good chance that I'll have an extra ticket (since that Bromberg fellow might not be able to go).
Just throwing that out there. _________________ When I am weaker than you, I ask you for freedom because that is according to your principles; when I am stronger than you, I take away your freedom because that is according to my principles.

You obviously have no appreciation for the finer things in life. _________________ ' What I'm thinking in my head is, 'Well, the truth is, Brian, we can't solve global warming because I f---ing changed light bulbs in my house. It's because of something collective'. |

My copy of Caine Black Knife arrived, I'm going to sit down with a snifter of brandy in front of a fireplace and enjoy it. |

This pretty much only applies to Vernon, but here would be Watchmen as applied to the NFL:

That looks pretty quality...

Were we really not supposed to have lecture this morning? Because I showed up to a very empty room. |

I think even if there wasn't a lecture he still skipped it. |

Ok, I've read through the whole thing, and I gotta say... I was actually laughing out loud.
Dr. Foxboro... /lawl
Best single line in the whole thing:

I wasn't going to say anything since I thought it'd be too philosophical, and I know how people feel about that sort of thing. That being said... I think that it actually is the case that I did not skip lecture. My thought is that 'lecture' here is an intensional term. True, when I said that I skipped lecture, I believed that the content of my statement was something like, "there was a lecture, and I skipped it." when in fact, there was no such thing.
Now, what I think the proposition actually means, given that there was no lecture, is a discussion for another time. _________________ When I am weaker than you, I ask you for freedom because that is according to your principles; when I am stronger than you, I take away your freedom because that is according to my principles.

What I meant was that there probably was a lecture and Kallie was too busy trying to avoid you and sit with her "sisters" to know it was happening. |
