Werner Heisenberg, Kurt Gödel, and Noam Chomsky walk into a bar. Heisenberg turns to the other two and says, “Clearly this is a joke, but how can we figure out if it’s funny or not?” Gödel replies, “We can’t know that because we’re inside the joke.” Chomsky says, “Of course it’s funny. You’re just telling it wrong.”

Some rebels were being arrested, and instead of being arrested, one of them pulled the pin on a grenade he had hidden in his jacket. He took himself and the captain of the command with him. Guest: Ah, the rebels are insane! Michael: Maybe. But the soldiers are paid to fight; the rebels aren’t. Hyman...

One of my favourite scenes from the movie. I was dying at the end.
“….and tits.”
I’ve had it for a few months, but tonight feels like the night for it. Nobody around to make watching it feel awkward, and nobody around who might not want to watch it. I like Alphonso Cauron. Let’s do it.

Fuck, Why didn't anybody remind me that Salinger...
Luckily I just thought about it.
One year later, and no word on if there’s any posthumous stuff in the works.
One year later and I’ve since read everything the man has written, and desire more.
I’d say it’s a shame that he has died, but he was 91 and, frankly, he died in 1965 when he was published last. But, all the same:

Teddy Wayne's Unpopular Proverbs by Teddy Wayne
CONCLUSIVENESS.
All’s well that ends well, except for the season finale of Mad Men, which totally jumped the shark with Don’s shotgun marriage and, you know, the more I think about it, maybe it was never that good, it’s just we’re desperate for a dramatic show with high production values about adults that doesn’t involve superpowers or lawyers or doctors and we need...
