He looks old in this image, like 48 years old

Could be the lighting.

Right now my neighbors are arguing outside, screaming at each other over something. I'm hearing some colorful language, accusations etc. I'm tempted to throw tomatoes at them.

I had a non-pleasant evening. I was stalked by some homophobic white trash on my walk home.

Throw paper airplanes with phone numbers for anger management classes.

There is a nice back road I like to walk; it's 3 miles. Anyway, I was near the end of it, when I passed this tarpaper shack that is normally empty. There was a kegger going on, so I turned around before I even got near the property lines (it's beside an old church.) I was walking back when they started yelling out to me in the stereotypical voice applied to the gay population: "HEY BOY! COME HERE!"

I ignored them, and they called twice more, growing increasing louder as I walked around the curve and out of sight. 2 miles later, I was within seeing distance of home and I heard this car peel down the road I had just tread. It rested at the intersection and they screamed gibberish at me, loud as they could. I could not decipher it, but ignored them as I had before. They peeled off, still screaming, and I caught a crude reference to a phallus, as they tore down the road.

Yeah, I'm not walking that road again. I'm digging the exercise bike out of storage to compensate. The problem is the roads where I live have a lot of woods around them, sometimes without a house in sight for minutes. I was happy to live in the Mayberry Bubble, where I could enjoy the scenery and wildlife, but, I'm discarding that now, as I realize how easy it would be for them to converge on me, in a near isolated setting, without anything to defend myself with. Now, I know better, and I'm grateful that this was my lesson, instead of something dire.

 

[Marvolo]

I got a raise today. Nothing huge, but it will help with bills.

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Congratulations

Sorry about the weird text; autocorrect is acting up.

Jeeze that sounds pretty scary. I cant stand obnoxious drunk people! Defintely avoid that road or if you must walk it cary some pepper spray or one of those steel batons or a knife or some means of defending yourself.

 

[jonathancrane]

Yeah, I'm definitely avoiding it.

On a somewhat sunnier note, the power went out for the entire afternoon today, and I caught up on my reading: I reread the Doug Moench [Batman] collection 'Prey,' and have to say, it gets better with each reading. I'd love for someone to adapt elements of it for a Batfleck film...or for WB to do an animated adaptation of it.

 

[Ultron-5]

[Piper Maru]

Are you high?

 

[Ultron-5]

I don't know. Coke Pepsi. What? What? Repeat the question.

 

[Piper Maru]

What's better...coke or pepsi?

 

[Ultron-5]

Coke.

 

[jonathancrane]

For me, the answer varies from day to day, so right now, I'm answering Pepsi.

It's the same for me as well.

 

[Sawyer]

Jesus H. Christ, this is awful.

 

[Ultron-5]

Who likes Milkshakes?

 

[Piper Maru]

Sawyer, what's your favorite milkshake?

 

[jonathancrane]

I do.

I could go for one right now.
