I saw an Aztec with a broken front bumper today
and couldn’t help but think of Bryan Cranston.

meganomalous replied to your post: Phrases I’ve always wanted to use, but so far haven’t had the opportunity.
Hahahahaaha, I feel like Americans who use that phrase very often probably belong in the category of assholes ruining this country.
Definitely. But it’s such a good phrase it’s almost worth ruining a country over.

Phrases I've always wanted to use, but so far...
1. “It’s assholes like you who are ruining this country.” I bet you Americans get to use this one a lot. Teacher gave you a bad mark? “It’s assholes like you…” Guy in the car ahead of you cuts you off? “It’s assholes like you…” Someone litters? Someone recycles? You’re good either way. I bet you Americans use this phrase three...
“You’re a man. Men like looking at troubling pictures of heroin addicts showing...”

Daily Double
“Ice my cake, dickboys! I want to feel like a breakfast pastry.”
“What is hilarious sexual innuendo I was not expecting to find on Slate this morning?”
“Correct.”
“I’ll take ‘suddenly speaking in Jeopardy cliches for no discernible reason’ for 600, Alex.”
I'm sorry for all the Breaking Bad Spam
but this show is a masterpiece. I mean, they just took the equivalent of the Michael Cera playing with his lightsaber video from Arrested Development and made it a terrifying, edge of your seat panic moment and but also a sad, poignant reminder that a basically decent human died because of Walt… all the while still keeping the original humour of a dork trying to be cool on camera.

Holy Fuck Breaking Bad
Jesus effing Christ. Best episode in the show’s history? It’s top three, at least.
Also, I like how AMC played not one but three commercials for lady make up products right after Jesse was put into mortal danger. They definitely know who his audience is. That was some awesome Mad Men level planning.
But seriously, this episode. Jesus Christ. Hank gets his biggest lead yet. Skylar...

Breaking Bad spin-offs that need to happen:
A Saul comedy. Each week Saul gets involved with different shady characters in Breaking Bad’s New Mexico (the mobile gun dealer who likes to piss on women, Spooge’s woman, the hotel gun dealer, Jimmy In-and-Out, the junkyard law expert, Clovis and Wendy the Meth Whore to name just a few) and helps to solve their problems.
A Badger & Skinny Pete sitcom. I’m thinking classic...

Can you remember...
… back to a time when you were 12 or 13 or 14 (probably 13, that’s the most awkward year, I bet) and it was the summer and you listened to music that was painfully sincere? Maybe painfully sincere isn’t the right word for it. Painfully unself-aware? Maybe just painful, when viewed in hindsight.
Like, music that was just straight up about having fun and “partying”...
Mom: oh my gaaawwd the police beat this poor man to death.
Me (annoyed, reading newspaper & not really paying attention): yeah I saw that yesterday, Fuck the Police, etc., etc.
Mom: could you please not use curse words?
Me: well, that’s not really in the spirit of Fuck the Police. Just saying.

Treatments in clinical development
Multiple potential treatments for Alzheimer’s disease are currently under investigation, including several compounds being studied in phase 3 clinical trials. The most important clinical research is focused on potentially treating the underlying disease pathology, for which reduction of amyloid beta is a common target of compounds under...
