N.B.: “The jumping place” is any area just outside a restaurant where we’re eating, or sometimes the front vestibule, if it’s big enough.

“Daddy, can we go to the jumping place? I need to get rid of some of my energy.”

Honestly not sure if guy in official-looking “Trump: Make America Great Again” T-shirt at Hessler is being ironic or not.

Although, in all honesty, I’d be more likely to yell “Which one?” and see if they went for the outright lie or chose to qualify the claim.

Medical marijuana folks at Hessler yelling “Cures cancer!” and only my sitting in the kids’ art area keeps me from yelling back “Bullshit!”

Standing in an infinitely long Starbucks line with four pre-teens at Cedar Point. I’m the only one not getting anything.

Good one, Bootstrap, very droll. I respect a tool that can poke fun at itself. http://v4-alpha.getbootstrap.com/components/utilities/#spacing … (via @marmelab)

I just managed to smush one of my fingers with my own leg, in case you were wondering how my day is going.

Back in the 216. Thanks for everything, #aeabos. I couldn’t have asked for better.

Every social network is an editorial product of the company that runs it. Every App Store is, too. Most file storage systems aren't, so far.

From the moment I woke up this morning, I’ve had “The Friendly Faith Plate” stuck in my head. I don’t know why.

Somewhere in the middle of the 5th inning at Fenway, the PA played just about the entire theme song from “The Kids in the Hall”.

Phooey—it’s snowing in Cleveland and I’m not there to see it.

Me: Here are my essay proposals. Editor: Can you write this essay, and this other one if you feel it? Me: Sure. (a week later) Here’s three.

Reported a typo on a site’s home page to the parent company. Because that’s how I roll, Fr. Mücher.

I finally mistyped it as “GitHug”, as all GitHub users eventually must. Distributed affection repositories—someone should make that a thing.

Just a few days and I'm still not sure what I was.

If the conservative and liberal wings of the parties reject the establishment candidates, how small will be the winner’s plurality?

Adobe’s looking for a Senior Web Developer. Seems to be remote-friendly, based in New York: https://adobe.taleo.net/careersection/2/jobdetail.ftl?job=43277 …

That said, if there’s a beer named Wall, I have a photo suggestion.

There must be a lot of truly fantastic jokes to make about the Budweiser renaming, but I don’t drink beer so I’ll have to sit this one out.

Here's the thing: Facebook is clearly a hugely powerful media entity, so it needs to own up to its responsibilitieshttps://twitter.com/dankennedy_nu/status/729716488253251584 …

Many, many dudes in the public sphere try to promote the idea that being an obnoxious asshole is somehow brave, novel or useful. Alas, no.

“Small pieces, loosely joined” makes total sense to me—and yet every time I add a new piece, it feels like I’m just making things rickety.

Also @sara_ann_marie’s, but Janie knows that—I think she got bitten by the 140.https://twitter.com/janie/status/729378001025032192 …

(whispers to flight attendant): "I don't want to upset anyone, but I think the man in 15C is modeling credit default swaps".

Why wouldn’t that airline passenger think math was a sign of terrorism? Our government says the same about strong encryption; i.e., math.

I share that because it still, always, makes me laugh, every time. How could it not?

Proud to be the first follower of @markovmywords, which follows @schofeld but NOT ME. <sulk />
