On Grain Names, In Order Of Suitability As Names For A Heavy Metal Band

@whizz_dumb : Dammit, Bry, all this tells me is that YOU'RE NOT HUNGRY ENOUGH TO BE EDITOR-IN-CHIEF.

@Aatom : "Canned posts"? Please. Those are just the product of Choire's copy of "Super Silly Mad Libs 2" and a thesaurus open to the entry for "despair".

@Denial : Also, if the recent addition of amusing alt-texts to images was not enough of a technological revolution for you, WELL THEN.

On Incoming Men's Fashion Trend Disaster: "The Single-Pleated Chino"

@My Number Is My Address : I'm going to assume that the pleat goes on the side you dress on. Or the opposite side, if you prefer to show off the goods.

I think I'm joking, here. Waiting on the inevitable interview with the designer of said trousers to confirm.

On Younger People Eat Differently

@dinosaur_senior : I was going to make a joke about a nominal Tumblr called, amusingly, mypoop.tumblr.com. Oh, how we would have laughed at the ludicrous notion that such a thing might possibly exist! That it would, of course, be filled with images of a person's bowel movements! Impossible! Hilariously impossible!

Of course, I was naive.

Tragically, tragically naive.

On Younger People Eat Differently

OK, so on the table I see peanuts, green tea lights, and ... are those chopped-up Slim Jims? Man, I would be right there mass-texting photos with that guy, like THE RECESSION IS REALLY KILLING FINGER FOOD Y'ALL.

Alternate take : "The service at Chez Coffeetables was very attentive, and the chef's decision to serve the beanies and the weenies in separate dishes was refreshingly authentic."

On Man Thinks About Sex When He Looks At People

On Just In Time For The Death Of The Album Cover

@Peteykins : Right? I'm not sure what's wrong with the printer but the print quality makes me suspect it was "printed" by someone with a spare two hours and a hot glue gun.
