On my way to work today I saw a car with the license plate "DUBAI69", which was also spelled out on the back window in mismatched stickers. Well that's my 69 story for today.

If you're driving through Kansas on I-70, you can take exit 420 to get onto Highway 69. That's my 69 and 420 story, so I can reside this in 351 pages.

I really wish I had a girlfriend so that could propose we drive to Kansas, smoke weed on the 420, then pull over and have a quick 69 long enough before Johnny Law could sniff it out. But that would require me having the charm to win a woman. And be willing to go to Kansas.

Ya ever do a 96? It's the 69 position only you're back-to-back, and you just have a nice conversation with each other from afar. You're still naked though. It's not a very popular sex position.

You could hit up Pancho's, its right there off the 69, get some tacos.

One time a guy stole some downhill skis out of my jeep and I was so mad I punched a mailbox. I'm against crime, and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
It's been so long since I read Long Halloween that I couldn't remember how Calendar Man was protracted (aside from obvious red herring). My Batman knowledge is mainly related to the Arkham games and the movies.

That actually sounds really nice if you're both on LSD and masturbating.

Long Halloween is alright although the good parts are basically lifted from Year One and other comics (it's sorta a sequel to Year One tbf). Also you see early stages of Loeb's irritating "guest-star every member of Batman's extended cast and do nothing with them" schtick

This is what I really disliked about it. The first Batman stuff I'd read was Killing Joke which I liked a fair bit, Year One which was ok, then this. It's just an endless parade of villains I don't care about doing nothing but show up to give the fans a nostalgic feeling of 'oh, that guy!' and not having any connection to these character it just felt interminable for me.

e: It's also the last Batman I read and is likely to remain so.

I know what you did last summer, and frankly I am displeased.
So I have an incredibly awkward situation I need help navigating.

There's a video store in my town that I not only really like going to, but is the last one around. I've been renting movies there since I was 12. So obviously I've become real familiar with the owner. In the last few years he's become a born again Christian or something. So now a lot of times he'll be having intense Jesus talks with other bible thumpy people who come in there and stuff. Also now and again he'll just name drop God or Jesus or the Devil casually. None of that really bothers me because I don't find it to be a big. So today my mother was in there and she was talking to the guy and I came up in the conversation and they were talking about some issue I have. So then he starts going on tell my mother that if I accept Jesus as my lord and savior then everything in my life will get better and blah blah blah all my problems are solved. Then he tells her next time I go in there he'll "have a talk" with me about it. Now if we had to have a list of conversations I'm absolutely not interested in ever having this poo poo is real close to the top. Basically I'm wondering if there's any polite way to shut this poo poo down if he bothers me with it.

Also, before anyone goes "Derp netflix" I like video stores and I prefer to support local business when I can so I would strongly prefer to keep going there and also he has a copy of Tammy and the T-Rex that he said I could have.

Just tell him "no thanks, I would rather not have this conversation with you" if he brings it up, which he probably won't.
