It’s bad that I walked to my dumpster to take out trash and thought to myself, “it’s actually not that bad out.”

 

Just make sure Jacob doesn't show up and overhear you talking about how you secretly love republicans

 

I was like that after the first polar vortex early last week (or was it two weeks ago?)....it got down to like 6 degrees here, but then the next day it was like 26 degrees and I was like “oh it’s not too bad today!”

 

Today is a low of -5 and a high of 8

 

9 and balmy here in Cleveland

 

lol.

 

You know me and my hipster spots. always a secret GOP praise fest.

 

" the perpetrators were fine people though "

 

Lend me some sugar I am a wall

 

Once I got in my car and out of the wind I took my hoodie off.

Ohio is weird.

 

Good walls make good neighbors was my one takeaway from “Home Improvement.”

 

I don't think so, Tim.

 

I assume this is a permutation of the phrase "good fences make good neighbors", a line from the Robert Frost poem "Mending Wall". It's actually the opposite meaning of what the original poet intended... the opening line of the poem is actually "Something there is that doesn't love a wall" and goes on to describe the narrator's attempts to talk his neighbor out of putting one up.

I learned this in a poetry class in college and am convinced it's further proof of that we're in a simulation.
