Symphony No. 8 in B minor, D. 759

I saw a woman trying to exit a Party City with a bunch of inflated balloons contained in large plastic bags and thought, "That is pure waste – a waste of plastic, a waste of helium (a finite resource), a waste of ribbon, and a waste of latex that could be better used as condoms."

Balloons are luxurious garbage.

Party City is currently selling Thanksgiving party supplies.

Party City is an argument against a free market.


What's the deal with separate menus for dessert at restaurants?

I like to plot and price out a meal, but can't do that when a whole course is sequestered from me until I have crossed the Rubicon.

If, per Drew, restaurants list dessert separately so as not to overwhelm diners with information about a "different experience," then at least post your dessert menu alongside your main menu outside your restaurant.

I feel like restaurants worry that, if people know what desserts are available, they might save room for dessert and not order as much savoury food. Better instead to enable an obesity epidemic.


Nardwuar vs. Jon Yu

Nardwuar: Who are you?
Jon Yu: Jon Yu of the Blond Jews.
Nardwuar: Jon Yu, welcome to Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada.
Jon Yu: My favourite city in the world.
Nardwuar: Right off the bat, I have a gift for you.
Jon Yu: Oh shit! A Captain Shiner ringer tee! How did you find this? It seemingly doesn't exist on the Internet.
Nardwuar: You were a big Primus fan in your youth.
Jon Yu: I…went through a Primus phase, yes. Only fan club I've ever joined.
Nardwuar: Was your Primus phase before or after your soundtrack phase?
Jon Yu: [pause] How do you know this stuff? Umm… It happened during. My soundtrack phase was more of a soundtrack era. I was an irrational collector of soundtracks – multiple Case Logic CD wallets. I'm probably the only person in the world who owns a copy of the Four Rooms soundtrack – you know, Tarantino, Robert Rodriguez… I've never seen the film.
Nardwuar: Speaking of soundtracks, what can you tell me about El Oso by your favourite band Soul Coughing?
Jon Yu: Heh. This is mental. Well, I read that Wes Anderson wrote screenplays around songs that he wanted to use, and thought it would be interesting if the soundtrack to a (non-musical) film was just an album by some band, and I conceived a film around Soul Coughing's El Oso. I can't believe you have it on vinyl.
Nardwuar: What is the film about?
Jon Yu: Oh, imagine if Ryan Murphy made Magnolia. It's titled Biology, because biology was my worst subject in school, and I wanted to forever taint it with my sordid film. I wanted people to associate biology with a dude needing a skin graft after over-masturbating while high on crack – among other things.
Nardwuar: Alright. Thanks so much, Jon Yu. Keep on rockin' in the free world, and doot doola doot doo…
Jon Yu: Doot doo.

Wikipedia » Fissure of the nipple

Wikipedia » Cello scrotum

Cello scrotum is a hoax medical condition originally published as a brief case report in the British Medical Journal in 1974.

The original letter was written by Dr Elaine Murphy but signed by her husband as a joke to compare with a previous letter regarding guitar nipple, a condition reportedly occurring when some styles of guitar playing excessively irritate the player's nipple, which Murphy and her husband believed was likely a joke.
