kensington market winter solstice

Ex-Lemmingworks. ##.

I took a pile of photos last night that I uploaded to kensington market - a photoset on Flickr. They’re rather nice because I could work without a flash.

I was to meet up with Danny and folks, but it just didn’t happen. Then we got hungry and went out for what as probably the worst edible dinner ever. Cute place, but I could do better with a hot plate and a can of beans.

A New Acronym: CUIS

Originally published at Lemmingworks. You can comment here or there.

It stands for catastrophic university induced stupidity. Usage: “Bill, I got another CUIS situation here.” I came up with the phrase when I was trying to describe the situation most of us have been in, and some of us survived, when just being at a university for the first time causes a temporary (though this could get chronic) leaving of the senses such that ‘acting without thinking’ becomes the only reasonable course of action. Which in turn leads to trouble. Which results in the growing sense of “I don’t know what I was thinking.” taking over. Ken noticed the ubiquity of the term, and the need for its achronymification.
