Take Your Kid To Work Day 1993. You get lost between your dad's desk and the Coke machine and wander nervous and dreamy into a conference room. His two goofy friends and the woman who thought she had candy at her desk but it turned out she didn't are absolutely shredding in there
Look: now that everything's shaken out I'd like to say that I thought Carville looked great in that 1992 video. I almost feel like the horseshoe worked better for him than hair... accents his features somehow. Shouldn't have shaved it off. Love the polo too obviously

That makes the alphabet older than we previously assumed

I think I speak for everybody when I say that the most haunting Beach Boys what-if is "What if they let Bruce Johnston write more songs"
"Disney Girls (1957)," incredible. "Deirdre," amazing. "She Believes in Love Again," way stronger than the rest of that record. "Tears in the Morning," look man nobody's perfect. Brian Wilson wrote some dogs too. Come on
I really thought starting the High Gas Price War was going to work out for him but that's why you play the games
Fitzgerald is perfectly suited for high school! You certainly get something different out of Gatsby as you get older, but 17-year-olds generally know what it's like to valorize grand romantic gestures that you come to realize are futile
One of the great things about reading novels in high school is that you can come back to them later as a different guy. I remember being very taken with Daisy myself the first time I read the book... could not have happened if I'd already kissed a girl by that point
Nick is a dour by-the-books plodder-type detective and Jordan is his talented and instinctive partner who cheats to win cases. Gatsby is the strangely ingenous mob kingpin they're chasing. Come on guys if you have to do this at least think about it for a minute
Faved the right combination of tweets and now I'm only seeing Jane Austen posts on here. Huge for me
I think about this all the time. If you want to do Sense and Sensibility as written *both* Dashwoods have to be really young. When Elinor's an adult you lose the sense of her being not quite as grounded and mature as she thinks she is
We don't get married as young as well-off regency ladies did, and obviously you have to account for modern tastes, etc., but Austen is taking full advantage of the youthfulness of her characters relative to the decisions they're making—SHE notices they're really young, too
