The Internet has everything imaginable. David The Arrow Bard, for instance. This is a link to his Batman poledance competition entry.

You mean he's not!?

You're looking for Allendale! It's far enough north of downtown that you don't have to deal with downtown traffic. There's a while bunch of shops and eateries up and down Burnet. The neighborhood is lovely, and Shoal Creek Dr is one of the nicest roads in Austin. It's also just down from another great shopping area that includes a theater, a bunch of restaurants, and the north Epoch location. There's a Walmart, and a Ross right next to it, too. The neighborhood gets more rain than other places in Austin, but not so much of the severe weather. It's also only about 20 min from the Domain.

Does Where In The World Is Carmen San Diego, count?

Boring-Summer8047

Dang! I didn't realize it was so common.

Flying House! I was basically only allowed to watch Christian shows. Thank goodness for Lavar Burton and Mr Rogers!

That would make sense. I was raised by PBS, but wasn't allowed to watch Sesame Street or Barney. So I watched a lot of adult oriented TV that scarred me for life.

Boring-Summer8047

Yeah! Next time I'll just bite their whole head off!

Boring-Summer8047

It was honestly hilarious to see how people reacted to it! I could always tell which of the guards had seen my record. They would treat me like I was super dangerous! 🤣

Boring-Summer8047

Geez! That totally tracks. I would love if there was some way to punish these aholes. I know way too many people who have permanent effects from cop-inflicted injuries. I bit the guy because he was forcing his way in. I was so scared I was going to get raped that I lost control of my bladder. They claimed that I threatened them with scissors! I'm honestly shocked that I didn't get "resisting arrest" as well!

Boring-Summer8047

Thank you. I'm actually rather proud of it. Makes me seem way more badass than I am, for sure!

Boring-Summer8047

Same! My parents joined a cult when I was a kid. I'm an atheist now. Turns out, beating someone until they "set a good example" has the opposite effect!

Boring-Summer8047

Apparently so, according to my felony. You bite one cop, and the next thing you know you're in jail! 🤣

Boring-Summer8047

Right!? I saw a documentary about it on PBS back in the day, and seeing the corpse pictures unlocked my suppressed memories. Between documentaries and westerns, I had quite a lot of nightmares! My mom can't stand sci-fi, and blamed my nightmares on watching Star Trek. 🫠

I'm pretty sure it's because they're mostly to restrain the babies so they don't flail around and hurt themselves and others.

Boring-Summer8047

I'm glad I'm not the only one who immediately thought of the song! I definitely also went "OH! The Franklin expedition.The Franklin expedition!"

Boring-Summer8047

Great! Now I'm bawling! 😭

Boring-Summer8047

Okay. I thought the slowing was due to the unbalance.

Boring-Summer8047

No one thought to hit the emergency stop bottom, eh? Gotta look like a hero!

Boring-Summer8047

I really like the batfam art. It's super cute! I was just taken aback with the flying fox pic in this context. Oof

Boring-Summer8047

I'm pretty sure they're referring to the fact that this kid straight up looks like a serial killer! Yeeikes!

Boring-Summer8047

Yikes! This is some dark IYKYK shit. That bat picture is of flying fox babies. There was a mass "die-off" caused by global warming this summer. The mother's died because of the extreme heat. Whatever you do, do NOT go looking up videos! Like, seriously, don't do it! I'll never get the screaming out of my head.

Boring-Summer8047

Yeah. Being child labor is great, and doesn't at all leave your body broken and disabled in your twenties! 🫠

Boring-Summer8047

Doing your hair up as horns is so freaking clever!! You look amazing. Good job!

My friend and her siblings were really into building elaborate Lego structures. They had a bunch of Lego Star Wars figures. It was really funny to equip the pirates with the lightsabers! Superheroes with lightsabers is also great. My first actual merch was a Dairy Queen cup from an Ep 1 promotion. It came from a friend's older sister. She knew I loved the franchise, so she saved and flattened the cup for me so I could see the art. It was a treasure that I had to sneak into my room after she snuck out to me. Naturally, I my mom somehow found out, and she used that knowledge to make fun of me, and demonstrate how rebellious and uncristlike I was. Cults ain't fun, y'all! I now have a bunch of the Lego SW games, and I get to play then with my little sister. That's better than I ever hoped as a kid.
