This is one of those stories where it's like, OK, he's not CRAZY, but he's definitely loony.
Or at least, ok he is going through some sort of mental issue, but it just so happens that the things he's saying are also true... but that doesn't magically make him logical, either.

A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.
It's a brand name for a dermatological laser that's used to reduce the appearance of scars, pores, and wrinkles, and can smooth out discolorations in skin
mostly, I have pores that I want to shrink
You need to do what will make you happy. But you look good from the pictures I've seen!
Harsh? Harsh? The smell that permeated the show floor, a place already more akin to an orcish spawning pit than a technology showcase, was harsh. I speak of justice.
When I went in the bathroom at pax south in January I had never smelled something so vile and horrific
Not joking for effect
And I've been to 2000 person magic tournaments. I don't know what the fuck was going on with people's guts but it was epic.

Pax bathrooms horrify me. I am not to worried about the pink eye. My dude cleaned my headset and controller with disinfectant before I put it on. I watched him do it. Also it could of been one of like 20 booths. So much vr.

This may be the one thing that could keep me from going to a PAX or ComicCon.

Narwhal, one of these agencies should hire you as a public relations guy.
2009 me with my handle of SJ hidden under my desk at home "I hope this doesn't make me an alcoholic"
Current me "HEY BUDDY GUESS WHAAAAT"
You're an alcoholic?? That's too bad
You know, all things considered it could be worse. I could have gone on longer with it and ended up with a DUI or killing myself or someone. I've met some amazing peeps in AA in the last three months so for all the stupid shit that happened I'm actually thankful for it.

Soyuz, old school, reliable, does a cool thing with boosters
Do they have an assembly line somewhere for those?
They seem to really crank them out.
The Russians certainly do! They are also notorious for over-building their launch vehicles, so we do (globally) have an overabundance of Russian rocket engines and Russian rockets in general :P

Some people just kind of break in weird ways. You saw a lot of it after 9/11 too. I was working in a bookstore at the time and we had this nice old lady who decided she needed to investigate the security of various chemical plants outside of Houston. As you can imagine right after 9/11 that didn't sit well with security or law enforcement.
One of my fears is some trauma will do that to me. That I will just give into paranoia completely and I'll do something that will seem perfectly rational to me but may get myself or someone else hurt.

So they tried broadcasting a Thomas the Tank Engine (or The Railway Series properly) story live in the 1950's and it appears to have been a fiasco
I want to see it

We will be coming to you LIVE! from French Guyana in ~11 minutes, for the launch of a Soyuz out of the Guiana Space Center!
Today's payload is a Sentinel-1B Satellite into Low Earth Orbit, along with a bunch of secondary payloads! Total mass to LEO is 3099kg.
Launch is scheduled 5:02pm on the East Coast (2:02pm on the West, 21:02 UTC)!
