If anybody wants to split, I'd love a PS and 2-3 of the Mourved.

Otherwise, PoSt away, folks!

I was unsure what to make of your username, so I went with a wine bottle motif.

More likely Invino I'd think. Recall the Crushpad popup a few months back, and MM showed up nearly everywhere except WW.

Much more than death: do not say ‘banishment.’

And in the strange but true section (aka Why isn't this a story in The Onion?) of today's news .... Adidas cancels release of controversial shackle sneaker.

Sneakers with fake shackles on them? And it was considered fashion? Walrus Toting Halibut were Adidas execs thinking to begin with?

No, you get banished for singling out someone as a seaweed. From now on I will only hint heavily at whom is a douchbag, instead of actually saying hey, X is a seaweed.

Also, it doesn't help if the person you single out actually IS a seaweed. You still can't call them that.

Love it, I've been on the Sriracha bandwagon for 15 years. Good stuff Maynard.

I also love the ongoing legal battle between The Oatmeal and seaweed lawyer du jour. It's comical to say the least.
