I am now pondering this one. How much faster does the elevator climb if you push the button multiple times? :)

Here is an article about elevator programming. It took awhile to get to the point, maybe that's why waiting for an elevator can appear to take so long. ;)

I personally think it’s a missed opportunity that Build-a-Bear hasn’t capitalized the heck out of Lovecraft’s elder gods.

I mean, Yog-Soft-oth is too good of a name to not make something out of it.

You could squeeze it and it would utter a cute sound so alien that it would break your sanity just to hear it. Maybe they could be like Teddy Ruxpins, but instead of story books they read you the necronomicon.
...if they build it, I will buy......

Two of my favorite dresses of the night:

Marie Kondo -- I love this woman. I read her first book when it was hot. I'm watching her show on Netflix now. It makes me cry. She has such respect for people and their things. And she teaches you to keep the things that "spark joy" and lets the homeowner's discover on their own, the a-ha moment of things that cause stress and anxiety. Not peace.

Everyone is making fun of her "spark joy" stuff, but if you calm your arrogant self down and try it, it makes sense. Here's a joke passed onto me about her:

"The Year is 2035. Marie Kondo holds up the condemned man to the crowd. "Does this man spark joy?" The crowd jeers, "No he does not!" She nods silently and throws him into the pit."


I love her style.

And I totally applaud and loved this outfit:

One of my other favorite dresses I can't find! If someone knows who was wearing it, please post a picture. She was on the red carpet and was interviewing people. It was a blue feathery dress. It looked young and so sweet on the person wearing it, but I can't remember who that was!

And, while I absolutely loathe these big fabric creatures perched on shoulders, I thought this dress was very pretty:

And don't get me started on Spike Lee. I have a lot to say about him.
