unlibrarian

Sitting at the reference desk in front of you is your friendly neighborhood unlibrarian. The shelves behind her contain materials on such esoteric topics as fountain pens, linguistics, squid, World of Warcraft, and your mom. The unlibrarian shuffles some papers underneath a paperweight in the shape of a small black swan, then looks up at you and says, "Shhh."
Lord Sacks, who has been Chief Rabbi of the United Hebrew Congregations of the Commonwealth since 1991, described the modern phenomenon of “angry atheists” as the “intellectual equivalent of road rage”.

You Are My Sunshine

From It Made My Day: “While raiding in WoW, tension was high because people kept foolishly standing in the fire. When I AFK’d to get more coffee, my 4 yr old got on vent and sung ‘You are my Sunshine’ to the group. When I came back, they were all singing along with her. The rest of the run went much better.
