But the Upper West Side side if full of beautiful botoxed faces.

Satan · 09.23.2009, 02:41 PM

they're especially hideous

when i want to see beautiful people i walk over to strawberry fields and watch the bums.

or go look in a mirror.

notyourfiend · 09.23.2009, 02:42 PM

A cop drove into strawberry fields the other day!

He parked with wheels on top of the Imagine sign!

I cannot make that up! I was kinda offended!

A Cop parked in my mind today, of course I said hey?

but she wasn't looking for me (of course & sad face) she wanted to know what I knew about mountebanks.

no way can i say what is best. the robot series is kinda good. rob influenza gators might be able to answer this better.

also please note: the flu pun in my post was not to say that rob the butt slapmastigator is a harblingor of the flahahauhizzle; rather it is aimed towards the fact that the number 1 ranked ncaa college football team florida gators has a bit of the sahahawinne flu. rob's name was just an innocent bystander, i'll make it up to him, if i haven't already by going to him as a source of sci-fi fluency.
Fluency.

I think it's because the Internet can feel unreal. Putting one's photo online is an attempt to link it to something real.

Rob Instigator · 09.23.2009, 02:57 PM

man that's the biggest laugh I have had all day. genius mad thanks.

frankly the best Asimov for me is the short story collections, of which there are many many, since he wrote many sci fi as well as historical and detective stories.
the Foundation Series is very influential and a touchstone for any sci fi involvement you may want to have.

my fave fave asimov is the non fiction stuff he did in his last 20 years. genius stuff, written in plain english. then again, I love reference books.
Asimov's Guide to Shakespeare

Asimov's Guide to the Bible

this one is my fave. Asimov's biographical encyclopedia of science and technology.

re: gmku

i can see why'd you'd say that because i can see my hands typing. but if you aren't ready to take responsibility for online actions because it existed in some 'sonic earth' then you best check aboard the next mayflower and chart a course to planet Klorklostringinham. Go to this land and all will be well. While the dresscode may be strict and conscription mandatory (unless yr smarter than yr tester) it will be a place where giant fucking mosquitoes can just fucking slam their suckers right into the jugulars of all species.

How would you know someone was posting a picture of themselves every day unless YOU were checking them out every day?

Satan · 09.23.2009, 03:12 PM

i dont. i am talking in a generl way. when i look at facebook every now and again i see that many people have thousands of pictures of themselves, many of which are practically the same pose. i guess its the same here. i rarely come here nowadays so rarely check the pictures but a quick glance through will suffice.

terriblecanyons · 09.23.2009, 03:20 PM

I can't think of a single person that posts their picture on here every single day.
